| gib | I got my Hauppauge 150 Today, and it worked right off the bat; only took a couple of seconds to configure, unlike the ADS PTV-150. I have one problem, however. The schedule guide is off by two channels. The listings are accurate, but pushed up two channels (ie channel 4 is in the 6 slot, 5 in the 7 slot, ect.) How can I correct this? | 01:08 |
| gib | PTV-305, I mean. | 01:08 |
| gib | I'm using schedulesdirect. | 01:09 |
| therethinker | $mythbot | 01:56 |
| mythbot | Hi! I know a lot about MythTV! I can also do things like look stuff up on wikipedia. To see what I know, use $. To learn more about me, say $help. | 01:56 |
| superm1 | therethinker, why does mythbot die a lot? | 01:58 |
| therethinker | Well... it has... | 01:59 |
| therethinker | nevermind, I thought you asked "does it die a lot"... missed the why | 01:59 |
| therethinker | I'm not quite sure... do you mind if I run the unmodified phenny bot in here, that way if I can figure out if its the channel, or my modifications? | 02:00 |
| therethinker | I won't poke it or anything... I can't say that for tgm... | 02:01 |
| superm1 | therethinker, well | 02:02 |
| superm1 | what if its the channel | 02:03 |
| superm1 | why would it be the channel | 02:03 |
| therethinker | Maybe it has something to do with Chan serv or something... | 02:03 |
| therethinker | Its always timeout errors... | 02:03 |
| superm1 | perhaps your intarweb? | 02:05 |
| therethinker | I wonder if there some way I can test that... | 02:06 |
| therethinker | Because It's gone out when my nets is fine, and the server is inbetween me and the nets | 02:06 |
| superm1 | can you run him elsewhere? | 02:07 |
| * therethinker hoped no one noticed... | 02:38 | |
| superm1 | therethinker, so can you run him elsewhere? | 02:40 |
| therethinker | Hmm... I might try tomorrow, I gotta go no | 02:40 |
| therethinker | *now | 02:40 |
| superm1 | o | 02:40 |
| superm1 | ok | 02:40 |
| therethinker | its in #mythbot -- I'll see if it dies at the same time | 02:41 |
| superm1 | okay cool | 02:41 |
| superm1 | good idea | 02:41 |
| therethinker | I bet $20 that it won't die tonight -- because I *want* it to die :P | 02:41 |
| therethinker | $infect mythbot | 02:41 |
| mythbot | /me takes control of mythbot's computer, formats the hard drive, and installs Windows ME on it. | 02:41 |
| therethinker | now it will die, in 20 minutes :P | 02:42 |
| scarter | $help | 02:45 |

| rhpot1991 | anyone here? | 04:23 |
| tritium | hello rhpot1991 | 04:25 |
| rhpot1991 | know anything about using the edit feature on a video? | 04:26 |
| rhpot1991 | or where the cut list is stored | 04:26 |
| tgm4883 | i think it's in the database | 04:26 |
| rhpot1991 | I was messing around and made a backup of my file | 04:26 |
| rhpot1991 | but its still skipping it | 04:26 |
| rhpot1991 | so I need to delete the cut list | 04:26 |
| tgm4883 | it's skipping what? | 04:27 |
| rhpot1991 | the end of the show | 04:27 |
| rhpot1991 | I didn't know what I was doing | 04:27 |
| rhpot1991 | and was using a monocrome osd on top of that | 04:27 |
| rhpot1991 | so its nice and messed up :) | 04:27 |
| tgm4883 | well just go end and delete the last cutpoint | 04:28 |
| rhpot1991 | did that, still missing it | 04:28 |
| rhpot1991 | I said to remove the data after it, and apparently it isn't reversed by removing the cut point | 04:29 |
| tgm4883 | thats odd | 04:29 |
| rhpot1991 | let me double check | 04:29 |
| rhpot1991 | cause it doesn't actually rip the comercial out till you transcode right? | 04:29 |
| tgm4883 | right | 04:30 |
| rhpot1991 | actually, its here | 04:31 |
| rhpot1991 | my bad | 04:31 |
| rhpot1991 | man it did a terrible job finding comercials here | 04:41 |
| rhpot1991 | if I pause a job will the next one in the queue start? | 04:41 |
| * tgm4883 shrugs | 04:53 | |
| rhpot1991 | after about 10 minutes of waiting I assumed no | 04:53 |
| rhpot1991 | so I am waiting for it to finish out | 04:53 |
| tazgodx | how do i tell mythtv to run jobs? for some reason its not running my jobs, and they are just queueing up | 05:04 |
| rhpot1991 | there is an option in the backend config | 05:04 |
| rhpot1991 | to enable a job | 05:04 |
| rhpot1991 | I had the same problem the other day | 05:04 |
| tazgodx | backend config eh? | 05:06 |
| tazgodx | know where offhand? | 05:06 |
| rhpot1991 | looking | 05:08 |
| rhpot1991 | general | 05:08 |
| rhpot1991 | then about 7 pages in | 05:08 |
| rhpot1991 | "Allow 'User Job #1' jobs" | 05:08 |
| tazgodx | found it | 05:08 |
| rhpot1991 | and so on | 05:08 |
| tazgodx | thanks | 05:08 |
| tazgodx | :) | 05:08 |
| tazgodx | now will they jsut start? | 05:09 |
| Dr_willis | 7 pages in.. heh. :) aint that the truth.. | 05:09 |
| rhpot1991 | I think mine did | 05:09 |
| Dr_willis | 'now where did i see that setting at.....' | 05:09 |
| rhpot1991 | without having to delete and rerun | 05:09 |
| rhpot1991 | by default it will only run one job at once too | 05:09 |
| rhpot1991 | what kind of jobs are you running? | 05:10 |
| tazgodx | encode to xvid | 05:10 |
| rhpot1991 | are you removing the commercials first? | 05:11 |
| tazgodx | im flagging them, then having them removed during encode...i believe | 05:11 |
| tazgodx | or, trying | 05:12 |
| rhpot1991 | I think you need to convert the flags to cut lists first | 05:12 |
| rhpot1991 | http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Removing_Commercials | 05:12 |
| tazgodx | i don't even know if i have nuvexport installed correctly to do this tho | 05:12 |
| rhpot1991 | I have been messing with the script on that page | 05:12 |
| rhpot1991 | my flagging hasn't been all that accurate though | 05:12 |
| tazgodx | my flagging has been pretty accurate | 05:15 |
| rhpot1991 | mine is for certain shows | 05:15 |
| rhpot1991 | but seemed to screw up everything on nbc tonight | 05:16 |
| tazgodx | CSI? | 05:16 |
| tazgodx | law and order? | 05:16 |
| rhpot1991 | don't record either of those | 05:16 |
| rhpot1991 | I have tested a lot with the daily show and colbert report, works well on those | 05:16 |
| tazgodx | works good on heroes and chuck | 05:16 |
| tazgodx | my 2 main shows :) | 05:16 |
| rhpot1991 | don't record anything on nbc tonight? | 05:16 |
| tazgodx | i didn't record anything since heroes | 05:17 |
| rhpot1991 | I enabled strict comm detecting too | 05:17 |
| tazgodx | that was monday | 05:17 |
| tazgodx | lol | 05:17 |
| rhpot1991 | cause my wife was yelling about it not always working on her soap opera | 05:17 |
| rhpot1991 | which, as far as I know, it does well now | 05:17 |
| tazgodx | haha, i banned anyone from touching my box and putting a soap opera on it | 05:17 |
| rhpot1991 | heh, I have 2 backends, one in my "office" and one in the living room | 05:18 |
| rhpot1991 | I set the slave one up to record shows for her | 05:19 |
| tazgodx | i would still ban soaps | 05:19 |
| rhpot1991 | gave me a good reason to waste money on hardware and mess around | 05:19 |
| rhpot1991 | it only keeps 1, so its not filling my hd's up with junk or anything | 05:19 |
| rhpot1991 | though I do understand | 05:19 |
| tazgodx | now i need to figure out if i have nuvexport installed...and get that working....on top of everything else | 05:20 |
| rhpot1991 | I used ffmpeg to encode for ipod | 05:21 |
| rhpot1991 | hmmm, this didn't do what it was supposed to at all | 05:22 |
| tazgodx | only script i could find to encode to xvid was a nuvexport script. but it uses ffmpeg | 05:22 |
| rhpot1991 | guess the remove commercial script erased my cut list | 05:23 |
| tazgodx | well, im tired of working on computers tonight. ill play more with this tomorrow | 05:27 |
| rhpot1991 | note to self, rm and mv not the same | 05:30 |
| rhpot1991 | almost did something bad | 05:30 |
| tazgodx | haha | 05:32 |
| rhpot1991 | hmmmm, anyone else have mythfrontend locking up when they edit a recording? | 06:15 |

| gib | How do you add a noise filter to TV recordings if your signal is not all that great. Can you apply it either at recording time or playback time? | 06:18 |
| gib | The DVD recorder I just replaced used to look better than watching TV live because of some filter they applied. | 06:20 |
| gib | I must have been more than deinterlacing, because that's not doing the trick. | 06:22 |
| gib | Looks like quickdnr or denoise3d are what I'm looking for. I can barely manage quickdnr as a playback filter, and denoise3d is way to much for my cpu to to in realtime. Can you use a transcoder to an MPEG2 file and not change anything about the format except applying custom filters like denoise3d? | 07:52 |
| gib | too much | 07:52 |
| gib | and have the transcoders only work on the files during idle time. | 07:54 |
| gib | I think I found what I need. There is quite a bit to learn to use mythtv most effectively. | 08:04 |

| drunken-wallaby | I've got a question. i have two tuner cards built into my mythbuntu box. a pvr150 and an old bttv based card. my problem is, that when i boot the machine, the cards are assigned the video devices randomly. so the pvr is sometimes /dev/video0 and sometimes /dev/video1 (and the other card vica verse). how can i make sure, that the ivtv-based card is always /dev/video? | 15:55 |
| drunken-wallaby | sorry, the ivtv card should alway be /dev/video0 | 15:57 |
| hugolp | drunken-wallaby: I have the same problem | 16:26 |
| hugolp | I know the devs are aware of this problem but dont know if its solved yet | 16:26 |
| directhex|work | you could always mess with udev | 16:27 |
| directhex|work | or you could force loading a driver in /etc/modules, which means the other card gets assigned during autodetection, which is a different time to manual module loading | 16:28 |
| hugolp | directhex|work: if I force loading a driver in /etc/modules that gets done before or after autodetection? Im guessing before | 16:30 |

| just1nj | anyone alive | 17:21 |
| pdragon | barely | 17:22 |
| just1nj | i hear ya | 17:22 |
| just1nj | i am having a problem with getting mythfrontend to autostart properly | 17:23 |
| pdragon | i'm not a dev, but can try my best. brand new install? | 17:24 |
| just1nj | wondering if it is a bug or something else, i installed ubuntu gusty via the alternate install cd to get my software raid working and have mythbuntu more and less working, | 17:24 |
| pdragon | does it start and work fine if you manually tell it to start? | 17:25 |
| just1nj | it just that when mythfrontend in configured to autostart the auto login hangs at the "autostart" part and never finishes the log, | 17:25 |
| just1nj | ya work fine manually | 17:25 |
| just1nj | but then its autostarted the box eventually crashes hard when the load gets too high | 17:26 |
| just1nj | it looks like to many mythfrontend are getting forked | 17:26 |
| pdragon | hmm... bit beyond me sorry | 17:27 |
| pdragon | superm1 or tgm4883 may be able to be more help if they come around | 17:27 |
| just1nj | righto | 17:27 |
| pdragon | that just paged them, so if they're around and available they should respond | 17:28 |

| StrawberryAngel1 | how do you switch workspaces in mythbuntu? | 18:12 |
| Daviey | StrawberryAngel1: I would think, the same way you would in XFCE or Xubuntu | 18:13 |
| StrawberryAngel1 | xfce is new to me | 18:13 |
| StrawberryAngel1 | so how do i? | 18:13 |
| Daviey | StrawberryAngel1: I don't know - maybe ask in #xubuntu, or I can have a play later | 18:14 |
| Daviey | Sorry i can't help more | 18:14 |
| StrawberryAngel1 | ok | 18:14 |
| reclusivemonkey | StrawberryAngel1: ctrl+alt+arrow keys (left and right) | 18:16 |
| StrawberryAngel1 | thank you | 18:16 |
| superm1 | just1nj, still need help? | 18:20 |
| just1nj | ya | 18:25 |
| just1nj | autostarting mythfrontend at login is crashing my box | 18:25 |
| just1nj | if you do not autostart it and run it from the menu it works fine | 18:26 |
| superm1 | just1nj, mythbuntu's xfce session? | 18:27 |
| superm1 | or is this a gnome session? | 18:27 |
| just1nj | ya | 18:27 |
| superm1 | can you checkout ~/.xsession-errors | 18:27 |
| superm1 | and /var/log/mythtv/mythfrontend.log? | 18:27 |
| superm1 | and see if either tells a tale about this? | 18:27 |
| superm1 | wait the ya, was that meant for ya mythbuntu xfce? | 18:28 |
| superm1 | or gnome | 18:28 |
| just1nj | correct | 18:28 |
| superm1 | lol | 18:28 |
| superm1 | xfce or gnome, which one | 18:28 |
| just1nj | xfce | 18:29 |
| superm1 | ah okay. | 18:30 |
| superm1 | well pastebin those two logs | 18:30 |
| superm1 | and we can start there | 18:30 |
| superm1 | so you installed a bit of a non standard way you say? | 18:30 |
| just1nj | ya i used the gusty alternate install cd to install gusty with software raid and then did the mythbuntu install | 18:31 |
| superm1 | ah i see | 18:32 |
| just1nj | no lvm/raid support is kinda limiting | 18:33 |
| just1nj | most things are working fine | 18:33 |
| superm1 | yeah at uds i'm going to talk to ubiquity guys about lvm support | 18:33 |
| Daviey | just1nj: it's in the works | 18:33 |
| just1nj | the old router i have running as a client bridge until i get wireless internal working on that box is being flaky again cutting out on it which makes doing things out of the house harder | 18:39 |
| just1nj | and nothing in the .xsession-errors is older than today | 18:40 |
| superm1 | its made when you log in | 18:41 |
| superm1 | so you have to activate the automatic login/startup | 18:41 |
| superm1 | and then look at it | 18:41 |
| just1nj | something i dont like doing remotely incase something gets dorks up in reboot | 18:42 |
| superm1 | well you can just issue a /etc/init.d/gdm restart | 18:43 |
| superm1 | remotely via ssh | 18:43 |
| just1nj | box seems to be responsive again, what is the entry for starting the frontend suppsosed to be in .config/autostart | 19:01 |
| superm1 | a symlink | 19:01 |
| superm1 | to /usr/share/mythtv/applications/mythtv.desktop | 19:02 |
| just1nj | shouldnt that be /usr/share/applications/mythtv.desktop | 19:03 |
| superm1 | did i type that wrong? | 19:03 |
| superm1 | oh yeah | 19:04 |
| superm1 | yeah that's right | 19:04 |
| superm1 | my mistake | 19:04 |
| just1nj | hrm | 19:05 |
| just1nj | there a error about thunar-volman not being installed that i took care of before restarting gdm | 19:05 |
| superm1 | anything else though? | 19:06 |
| just1nj | says it cant find /usr/bin/displayconfig-restore | 19:06 |
| superm1 | dont worry about htat | 19:06 |
| superm1 | things about starting myth is what you want to see | 19:07 |
| just1nj | system load isnt running away | 19:07 |
| just1nj | and only one instance of mythfrontend.real appears to be running | 19:08 |
| superm1 | so its fine? | 19:08 |
| just1nj | but i am at work and cant actually see if the frontend is running on the screen | 19:08 |
| superm1 | vnc? | 19:08 |
| just1nj | not currently configured | 19:09 |
| just1nj | but from here is looks like it going ok, the system load is fine and the frontend is still running | 19:10 |
| just1nj | another quick question, how do i get totem from starting when a dvd is inserted | 19:12 |
| superm1 | huh? | 19:12 |
| superm1 | from starting? | 19:12 |
| tgm4883_laptop | just1nj, mythbuntu install? | 19:12 |
| just1nj | i think totem was configured to run when a dvd was insert before i got mythbuntu installed over the gusty base and not the removable media option seems to be gone in xfce | 19:13 |
| superm1 | there is an option in the xfce settings menu | 19:14 |
| tgm4883_laptop | yea | 19:14 |
| just1nj | with it "gone" is there some way to edit/remove a file somewhere else to make totem to stop being run | 19:15 |
| testergg | Hi, I just put a new capture card in with mythbuntu and saa7134 via dmesg but the picture is fuzzy (coax- channel=3) it's a proteus pro 2309 card=98 autodetected don't know what to check i need ntsc channel 3 for capturing - and I don't get any sound | 19:15 |
| tgm4883_laptop | try gnome-volume-properties | 19:15 |
| tgm4883_laptop | testergg, how fuzzy | 19:15 |
| testergg | tgm4883_laptop: very I have a tv next to it and it's crystal clear, this shows bands (vertical) with show in them very unclear | 19:16 |
| testergg | what tuner would anyone suggest for ntsc north america with this card? | 19:29 |
| superm1 | what "tuner"? | 19:31 |
| superm1 | what do you mean by that. | 19:31 |
| testergg | superm1: I read on the wiki that with these types of card you must configure it for a tuner that corresponds to your region and standard, I need ntsc | 19:38 |
| superm1 | oh. i haven't worked with any saa7134 cards myself. | 19:39 |
| superm1 | sorry | 19:39 |

| superm1 | i've got a mario doll in my car | 19:56 |
| superm1 | and i had one at my office this summer | 19:56 |
| testergg | is a little fuzzy what I should expect or should it be crystal clear? | 19:59 |
| superm1 | it is usually a little fuzzy | 20:00 |
| superm1 | especially when comparing a computer monitor to a tv | 20:00 |
| superm1 | if you hook up the computer to the tv, it will typically look better | 20:01 |
| testergg | ok so maybe I can't improve on what I get, I thought that with mythtv I could get a clear picutre, would this be better with a pvr-150 card? | 20:03 |
| superm1 | the pvr-150 is higher quality yes | 20:03 |
| superm1 | since its hardware encoding | 20:03 |

| hugol1 | One of my front-end crashed the other day and since then mythtv is not working perfectly. Sometimes it takes like 8-9 seconds to start live-tv and other anoying effects | 21:08 |
| hugol1 | is somewhere in the database or other place where I can check for any corrupted configuration?¿ | 21:09 |
| therethinker | $wiki | 21:09 |
| mythbot | Mythbuntu -- http://wiki.mythbuntu.org ; MythTV -- https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MythTV | 21:09 |
| therethinker | okay, that works | 21:09 |
| DaveMorris | seems good | 21:09 |
| DaveMorris | 8-9 secs is how long mine takes | 21:09 |
| DaveMorris | as it takes the tv stream, saves it to disk, then passes the data of the disk to the frontend | 21:10 |
| DaveMorris | might still be a problem though | 21:10 |
| pdragon | mine only takes like 3, 4 seconds tops | 21:11 |
| * DaveMorris has a p450 for a backend though | 21:11 | |
| pdragon | ahh | 21:11 |
| hugol1 | DaveMorris: it was doing it in 1-3 seconds before | 21:11 |
| pdragon | 2.8 celeron | 21:11 |
| tgm4883_laptop | I doubt it's happening in 1 second | 21:11 |
| pdragon | has to cache 2-3 seconds of tv beforehand at the least | 21:11 |
| tgm4883_laptop | MythTV devs say it writes 4 seconds to disk first | 21:12 |
| hugol1 | tgm4883_laptop: I can tell you it didnt take 4 seconds to watch live tv | 21:12 |
| hugol1 | plus I can change channels in less than that time | 21:12 |
| hugol1 | now when I watch live tv theres a gap of 23-25 seconds that I cant watch | 21:21 |
| hugol1 | when I change into a new channel it tells me taht I have been 23 seconds watching it allredy | 21:21 |
| hugol1 | .... | 21:21 |
| hugol1 | anyone know what setting can be wrong? | 21:21 |
| tgm4883_laptop | sounds like some database problems | 21:24 |
| tgm4883_laptop | hmm | 21:24 |
| hugol1 | tgm4883_laptop: is anything besides reinstalling that I can do? | 21:28 |
| tgm4883_laptop | yea | 21:28 |
| hugol1 | this weird things started happening after one of the front ends crashed | 21:28 |
| tgm4883_laptop | how long have you had it installed? | 21:29 |
| hugol1 | I guess it left something wrong in the database | 21:29 |
| hugol1 | 5 days more o less | 21:29 |
| hugol1 | I reinstalled ubuntu 6 days ago | 21:29 |
| hugol1 | instaleed gutsy | 21:29 |
| tgm4883_laptop | well you could try repairing the database, or importing a backup of the database | 21:29 |
| hugol1 | tgm4883_laptop: how do I repair the database? | 21:30 |
| hugol1 | I didnt do any backup of the database and I guess mythtv doesnt do them automatically right? | 21:30 |
| DaveMorris | isn't there an option for reparing the database | 21:30 |
| DaveMorris | hugol1: it does, see http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=581172 | 21:31 |
| reclusivemonke1 | is anyone else having trouble getting listings from XMLTV in the UK? I don't seem to be able to get a response from the radio times website | 21:31 |
| tgm4883_laptop | I had a database issue and ran the optimize tables on it from MCC | 21:31 |
| DaveMorris | sorry reclusivemonke1I use the EIT here in the UK | 21:32 |
| hugol1 | DaveMorris: Im cheking that link, but how do I go about repairing the actual database? | 21:32 |
| reclusivemonke1 | $eit | 21:34 |
| hugol1 | DaveMorris: I didnt install mythbuntu, I installed Ubuntu gutsy desktop and installed the mythtv packets from synaptic. I dont think that way the backups are done right? | 21:34 |
| DaveMorris | superm1: ^^ | 21:34 |
| superm1 | backups are weekly | 21:34 |
| DaveMorris | reclusivemonke1: it's the free to air transmitted guide, 7 days worth | 21:34 |
| superm1 | and automatic | 21:34 |
| DaveMorris | sometimes refered as EPG | 21:34 |
| DaveMorris | superm1: on ubuntu with mythtv as well? | 21:34 |
| superm1 | yeah | 21:35 |
| reclusivemonke1 | ah right. I don't get digital until 2011 where I live now :-S | 21:35 |
| hugol1 | superm1: where are this backups? | 21:35 |
| superm1 | /var/backups i think | 21:35 |
| DaveMorris | reclusivemonke1: lives in the middle of nowhere | 21:35 |
| hugol1 | ok Ill check thanks | 21:35 |
| DaveMorris | I'm guessing you need to log into the database manually and do a drop on the database, then import the sql dmp | 21:35 |
| hugol1 | and how do I run the aplication to repair the databes? | 21:36 |
| hugol1 | DaveMorris: I am used to work with databases | 21:36 |
| DaveMorris | [IDEA] m-c-c provides easy restoration my database backups | 21:36 |
| hugol1 | specially mysql | 21:36 |
| superm1 | $spec | 21:36 |
| DaveMorris | you'll know what to do then :) | 21:36 |
| tgm4883_laptop | $add spec | 21:36 |
| hugol1 | mcc is mythbuntu control center? | 21:36 |
| DaveMorris | $blueprints | 21:36 |
| DaveMorris | $blueprint | 21:36 |
| tgm4883_laptop | :( | 21:36 |
| DaveMorris | hugol yes | 21:37 |
| pdragon | i saw that check box in MCC to run daily database maintenance. Is it good to check that anyway even if you're not having problems? | 21:37 |
| tgm4883_laptop | therethinker, tell DaveMorris $add spec | 21:37 |
| DaveMorris | $url | 21:37 |
| DaveMorris | stupid bot | 21:37 |
| hugol1 | if I install mythbuntu control center will it change any configuration in my ubuntu computer besides any mythtv configuration? | 21:37 |
| superm1 | bootsplash | 21:38 |
| superm1 | that's about all you will see changed though | 21:38 |
| therethinker | $add spec | 21:39 |
| DaveMorris | someone already did the spec - https://blueprints.edge.launchpad.net/mythbuntu/+spec/backup-restore | 21:39 |
| tgm4883_laptop | therethinker, does mythbot autojoin? | 21:39 |
| therethinker | What? | 21:39 |
| hugolp | ok thanks | 21:39 |
| tgm4883_laptop | this channel | 21:39 |
| therethinker | $mythbot | 21:40 |
| therethinker | No, it connects | 21:40 |
| therethinker | Ah, its dead! | 21:40 |
| therethinker | Its about to crash! | 21:40 |
| tgm4883_laptop | i was just wondering what would happen if we kicked it | 21:40 |
| therethinker | That means I can get some test data... | 21:40 |
| hugolp | shit | 21:40 |
| tgm4883_laptop | ? | 21:41 |
| hugolp | it only keeps one database back-up and it was done today | 21:41 |
| therethinker | Whoo! | 21:41 |
| therethinker | It quit at the same time on both! | 21:41 |
| DaveMorris | hugolp I think we need to file a bug on that 1 then | 21:41 |
| DaveMorris | $bugs | 21:42 |
| mythbot | https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-mythtv/+packagebugs | 21:42 |
| hugolp | DaveMorris: is suposed to behave in a different way? | 21:42 |
| superm1 | hugolp, no it uses rotations | 21:42 |
| frank_ | The mythtv backend setup in gutsy is not doing the mythfilldatabase when I click yes at the prompy | 21:42 |
| tgm4883_laptop | hugolp, no it should do a few at lease | 21:42 |
| hugolp | rotations? | 21:42 |
| frank_ | prompt* | 21:42 |
| DaveMorris | well, personally I'd like to see more than 1 backup | 21:42 |
| superm1 | it will make more than one backup | 21:42 |
| superm1 | i dont know how that's handled | 21:42 |
| tgm4883_laptop | DaveMorris, there is more than one backup | 21:42 |
| superm1 | but it does | 21:42 |
| tgm4883_laptop | looks like it makes 5 backups | 21:42 |
| tgm4883_laptop | 1 per week | 21:43 |
| hugolp | and I didnt think it was important but now that Im here, mythbackend setup sometimes starts at a console sometime it doesnt | 21:43 |
| tgm4883_laptop | so it could make more, 5 weeks ago sounds like when i installed | 21:43 |
| frank_ | I'm doing the mythfilldatabase manualy but the automated way after you setup the backend doesn't work | 21:44 |
| frank_ | can anyone confirm? | 21:47 |
| hugolp | it works here | 21:49 |
| frank_ | hugolp: maybe it's because I'm running kubuntu....? | 21:50 |
| hugolp | not very probable but I guess it could be | 21:51 |
| frank_ | not sure what to do to find the problem. | 21:52 |
| * DaveMorris risks been killed by upgrading his frontend to gutsy | 22:41 | |
| therethinker | I've been writing programs to write sonnets... | 22:43 |
| therethinker | its... interesting :P | 22:43 |
| reclusivemonke1 | therethinker: stanzas or it doesn't exist ;-) | 22:45 |

| therethinker | it only knows about 50 words or so :p | 22:46 |
| reclusivemonke1 | lol they all seem a little freudian! | 22:47 |
| therethinker | reclusivemonke1, hehe, they're not *that* bad, as far as computer-generated talk goes | 22:49 |
| reclusivemonke1 | certainly shows promise | 22:49 |
| therethinker | Yeah... its based on a recursive sentence generator I wrote... I took out a ton of features that tended to make sentances too long (dep. clauses, compound sent, etc) | 22:50 |
| therethinker | Sonnets are hard, because they're so long :p | 22:50 |
| DaveMorris | therethinker: you do this for work? | 22:51 |
| therethinker | Err... no :P | 22:51 |
| reclusivemonke1 | is there a purpose behind it all? (besides the obvious) | 22:51 |
| therethinker | No, not really. I'm interested in this stuff... | 22:51 |
| DaveMorris | there is a natural language group at work who I know a few people of | 22:51 |
| therethinker | There was a small section in GEB:EGB that inspired me... | 22:51 |
| therethinker | DaveMorris: I've been talking about it on swhack... I found them from the phenny bot, and this fits in to the topic of their channel... | 22:52 |
| therethinker | haikus are easier... and make a bit more sense:THE DOG: A dog is a dog./My smelly cow is on a key./A cat is my mouse. | 22:56 |
