[00:05] <solarbaby> How do you ask MythTV to keep looking for a Movie until it finally comes out?
[00:10] <solarbaby> It looks like I can do that through the Mythweb
[00:10] <solarbaby> I guess thats good enough..
[00:21] <solarbaby> it would appear that Title Search is buggy..  you can only have 2 Active Title Searches running in your scheduler at any one time
[00:21] <solarbaby> I am inputting Title Searches through MythWeb
[01:01] <MythbuntuGuest19> Ive just downloaded the off of the Downloads page, when I boot from the CD it tells me that this is a "Live CD-ROM for Mythbuntu 7.1, built on 20070730"  when I click enter to boot it loads into a gui interface with only a sand coloured background and mouse cursor... then it just stays there, I can use the mouse but nothing else loads... any suggestions?
[01:03] <solarbaby> I'd burn the cd much slower
[01:04] <MythbuntuGuest19> okay, also wondering if this is the normal progression of events?  Should I get a install screen after the live CD loads?
[01:05] <solarbaby> After the install cd boots up you should have a full desktop envirement and 2 icons on your desktop one for install and one for booting into live cd mythtv frontend..  you should also have applications tookbar on the top of the screen and a clock etc
[01:05] <solarbaby> there will be no password
[01:06] <MythbuntuGuest19> great thanks for your help!
[01:06] <solarbaby> Anytime.. G'luck and Welcome

[02:36] <MythbuntuGuest70> How well does the launch upgrade manager work.. in the mythbuntu settings. advanced managment
[03:40] <`Zypher> @anyone who it may concern: what is the theme in http://www.mythbuntu.org/files/images/7.10_mythtv-setup.preview.png ? blootube modified?

[04:28] <tazgodx> ok
[04:28] <tazgodx> :)
[04:48] <ckw> I am trying to setup mythtv under 7.10 using a Hauppauge PVR-350 which works flawlessly under 7.04...previously i had upgraded a working setup on 7.04 to 7.10 and it at least came up...now on this fresh install of 710 the backend setup wont even detect the card....any knowledge out there tonight on this issue?
[04:49] <solarbaby> I use the Hauppauge PVR 350, and I never experienced that problem
[04:52] <ckw> solarbaby:when i installed  i simply selected mythtv in synaptic and let it install all relevant packages...do you see any potential issues with that?
[04:54] <dwf_starband> I think the mythbuntu control center will set it all up for you, you can get it from the add/remove program
[04:54] <dwf_starband> thats what im in the process of doing with 7.10 right now
[04:55] <ckw> dwf_starband:i wondered about that....let me grab that and see what happens...thanks
[04:55] <dwf_starband> ok
[04:55] <frank23> ckw: do you have mplayer installed?
[04:56] <frank23> ckw: try mplayer /dev/video0
[04:56] <dwf_starband> im just now in the process of a clean 7.10 install, so im not sure what i have right now
[04:57] <frank23> its just to test the pvr-350
[04:59] <ckw> frank23:hang on let me see
[05:02] <ckw> frank23:mplayer is up and running....what is the test procedure?
[05:03] <frank23> from a terminal run  mplayer /dev/video0
[05:03] <tazgodx> he means commandline, type  "mplayer /dev/video0"
[05:03] <ckw> frank23:10-4
[05:04] <frank23> at least I think it's /dev/video0
[05:04] <tazgodx> think so...
[05:06] <ckw> frank23:mplayer: could not connect to socket
[05:06] <ckw> mplayer: No such file or directory

[05:07] <tazgodx> hmmm
[05:07] <tazgodx> seems weird, i ahve a 350, and no problems
[05:07] <tazgodx> how did you install?
[05:07] <tazgodx> ubuntu, and hten mythtv after? or mythbuntu?
[05:08] <ckw> tazgodx:indeed...esp.since the card works over on the windows side and if i reinstall to 7.04 it works like a champ...go figure
[05:09] <ckw> tazgodx:i installed 7.10 from the cd...then used synaptic and checked mythtv and then apply and here i am
[05:09] <ckw> i did not check any of the mythbuntu stuff...i was under the impression that was not necessary and i could set it up just as i did on 7.04
[05:10] <tazgodx> well, i recommend mythbuntu
[05:10] <tazgodx> it makes everything easier
[05:10] <ckw> tazgodx: i am about to try that now
[05:10] <tazgodx> installing mytbuntu control center?
[05:11] <ckw> tazgodx:yes
[05:11] <frank23> ckw: I doubt it will make a difference but you can try.
[05:11] <tazgodx> yeah, i can't think of much of a change to the 350 drivers. but can't hurt
[05:12] <ckw> frank23:i agree...the fact that the card cant be polled is not encouraging
[05:12] <tazgodx> i have the 7.10 mythbuntu CD and installed with that, and it worked perfect
[05:12] <frank23> ckw: go in a terminal
[05:12] <ckw> frank23:i am there
[05:12] <frank23> then    sudo rmmod ivtv
[05:13] <frank23> sudo modprobe ivtv
[05:13] <frank23> dmesg

[05:18] <ckw> frank23:hmmmnnn...ok....is there a way to manually provide the firmware?
[05:20] <frank23> i'm pretty sure it should be there by default. did you change kernel or anything like that?
[05:22] <ckw> hmmmnnnn...i was wrestling with a video card issue and had to install a legacy driver....if i remember correctly it had to recompile a kernel
[05:22] <frank23> ckw: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Install_IVTV_Troubleshooting
[05:23] <ckw> frank23:i'll check it out....thanks
[05:25] <frank23> ckw: it's way past my bedtime. good luck
[05:25] <ckw> frank23:they are suggesting a total power off which i;ll try next ...thakns for the help
[05:26] <frank23> umm before that do
[05:26] <frank23> uname -a
[05:26] <frank23> and
[05:26] <frank23> ls /lib/firmware/2.6.22-14-generic/v4l-cx*

[05:31] <ckw> frank23:ok..i think i am on the right track now...go get some sleep...and thanks very much again
[05:31] <frank23> ok
[05:31] <frank23> later

[05:50] <ccb0x45> hey anyone set up ndiswrapper on 7.10?
[05:52] <ccb0x45> and for some reason when I try to enable vnc

[05:52] <ccb0x45> just crashes it
[06:37] <MythbuntuGuest89> I've been battling a freeze in the mythbuntu install @ 94% done. Details are here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=589805 Any ideas?
[06:42] <MythbuntuGuest89> Bueller?
[06:44] <MythbuntuGuest89> Is anyone actually out there?
[06:45] <MythbuntuGuest89> Anyone at all, feel free to say anything so I know that at least my session is working
[06:45] <dwf_starband2> hello
[06:46] <MythbuntuGuest89> Ok cool, I was begining to wonder
[06:46] <dwf_starband2> anytime
[06:46] <MythbuntuGuest89> did you see my original question?
[06:47] <dwf_starband2> no i just loged back on at 21:39
[06:47] <MythbuntuGuest89> Ok, here it is: I've been battling a freeze in the mythbuntu install @ 94% done. Details are here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=589805 Any ideas?
[06:48] <MythbuntuGuest89> If you don't know, that's cool, I can try again tomorrow
[06:48] <dwf_starband2> sorry, im pretty new myself, ive been using ubuntu for almost a year, but still learning, installed mythbuntu on one computer and the control center on a fresh install of 7.10
[06:48] <dwf_starband2> am still trying to get it all figured out
[06:49] <MythbuntuGuest89> that's cool
[06:49] <foxbuntu> MythbuntuGuest89, this is a known issue
[06:49] <foxbuntu> You are installing using the Ati Video drivers correct?
[06:50] <MythbuntuGuest89> No, actually nvidia
[06:50] <foxbuntu> really?
[06:50] <foxbuntu> thats strange
[06:50] <MythbuntuGuest89> I have a geforce fx 5500 so I'm using the nvidia_new driver
[06:50] <foxbuntu> any errors or does it just totaly hang up?
[06:51] <MythbuntuGuest89> just totally hangs up, there's some screenshots on the ubuntu forums post I linked to above
[06:51] <MythbuntuGuest89> another user told me he didn't see anything unusual
[06:52] <foxbuntu> bear with me I am reading your post here
[06:52] <MythbuntuGuest89> cool, thanks
[06:54] <foxbuntu> ok...2 questions
[06:54] <MythbuntuGuest89> ok, shoot
[06:54] <foxbuntu> what tuner card are you using, and I assume you are using the final release version of MB?
[06:55] <MythbuntuGuest89> the tuner card is a hauppauge pvr-350, the mythbuntu ISO I d/l was the 7.10 final, as far as I know (I just got it on Monday, which I know is when it released)
[06:56] <MythbuntuGuest89> The iso file reads: mythbuntu-7.10-i386 and is 499 MB, is that the final?
[06:57] <foxbuntu> MythbuntuGuest89, ok...as I know people have had issues with the PVR-350...try removing it and reinstalling
[06:57] <foxbuntu> thats the final
[06:58] <foxbuntu> I am not sure why the 350 is such an issue, but I personally use 2 150-MCE's
[06:58] <dwf_starband2> in myth-tv setup is it acceptable to use the ip address my backend/frontend uses on my network for the IP address and the Master Server Address?
[06:58] <dwf_starband2> i plan on having other frontends
[06:58] <MythbuntuGuest89> when you say re-install, do you mean literally take it out of it's PCI slot and put it back in or something else, because I'm doing a clean install so I've never installed any drivers, etc for it
[06:58] <foxbuntu> dwf_starband2, you got it
[06:59] <foxbuntu> MythbuntuGuest89, sorry to be clear, pull the card out (leave it out) and reinstall Mythbuntu
[06:59] <dwf_starband2> why cant i connect to the backend then, even though its on the same computer?
[06:59] <foxbuntu> dwf_starband2, did you set the backend to allow remote connections?
[07:00] <dwf_starband2> i think so, should that matter on the same comptuer?
[07:00] <foxbuntu> yes
[07:00] <dwf_starband2> was that in the control center?
[07:00] <foxbuntu> becuase MySQL security by default binds the listening IP to the loopback (127.0.0.1)
[07:00] <foxbuntu> dwf_starband2, you can change it in MCC
[07:01] <MythbuntuGuest89> ok, I'll give that a shot. I'll post my results on my ubuntu forum thread tomorrow. foxbuntu--thanks for the help
[07:01] <foxbuntu> MythbuntuGuest89, np
[07:03] <dwf_starband2> i have mysql service set to enable
[07:03] <foxbuntu> is it applied?
[07:03] <dwf_starband2> yes
[07:04] <dwf_starband2> i just disabled it, and applied and now its greyed out
[07:04] <foxbuntu> try to disable it and then re-enable it
[07:04] <foxbuntu> what changes did it say it was going to make?
[07:05] <dwf_starband2> remove mysql something
[07:05] <dwf_starband2> server maybe
[07:05] <foxbuntu> mysql-server?
[07:05] <dwf_starband2> im not sure, i just clicked ok
[07:06] <foxbuntu> is this a fresh install?
[07:06] <dwf_starband2> yes, fresh 7.10 with mcc installed right after
[07:06] <foxbuntu> ok
[07:07] <foxbuntu> 'go to the main tab of MCC and set it to be a master backend
[07:07] <foxbuntu> and apply that and see what is days
[07:07] <foxbuntu> says*
[07:07] <dwf_starband2> its already selected as primary backend
[07:07] <dwf_starband2> frontend
[07:08] <dwf_starband2> and ubuntu desktop
[07:08] <foxbuntu> change the role to something else and then back
[07:08] <dwf_starband2> ok
[07:08] <dwf_starband2> im changing to no backend, then ill reselect it
[07:08] <foxbuntu> k
[07:11] <dwf_starband2> ok after reselecting, the mysql services is still greyed out
[07:11] <dwf_starband2> do i need to run the setup again?
[07:11] <foxbuntu> did it say it was installing some fun stuff?
[07:12] <dwf_starband2> not really
[07:12] <dwf_starband2> i can do it again and pay better attention, what specificly am i looking for?
[07:14] <dwf_starband2> the only thing i can think of is i was reading http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=570073&highlight=mysql which said to delete ~.mythtv/mysql.txt
[07:15] <dwf_starband2>  etc/mythtv/mysql.txt is still there though
[07:16] <drfoz12> does anybody know of an up to date how-to for getting tv out working on a pvr-350?
[07:22] <dwf_starband2> i just noticed a lightbulb at the top of my screen, says update information MythTV-Database reconfigure required,
[07:22] <dwf_starband2> The mythtv-database package was upgraded or installed, but was unable to contact a MySQL server.
[07:22] <dwf_starband2> If you were in the process of dist-upgrading, this is normal as mysql-server is stopped for a portion of the upgrade.
[07:22] <dwf_starband2> If this is a fresh package installation, verify that mysql-server is installed and running.  Once you have verified the server is running, you can reconfigure the package by running 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure mythtv-database'.
[07:22] <dwf_starband2> If your root password or location of the MySQL server are non standard, you can also update them via 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure mythtv-database'.
[07:52] <frink_> hello
[07:53] <ccb0x45> fuck I can not get shit to work
[07:53] <ccb0x45> so damn frustrating

[08:05] <ccb0x45> the damn screen
[08:05] <tafkaz> http://parker1.co.uk/mythtv_ubuntu.php
[08:06] <tafkaz> MythTV Setup
[08:06] <tafkaz> maybe reinstall
[08:06] <tafkaz> and take some time to read...
[08:06] <ccb0x45> I fucking hate
[08:06] <ccb0x45> when it cuts off the bottom of the screen
[08:06] <ccb0x45> ive read it man
[08:07] <tafkaz> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MythTV_Gutsy
[08:09] <ccb0x45> let me see
[08:09] <ccb0x45> if I can fucking get my screen back

[08:10] <ccb0x45> im only getting a little corner of the screen
[08:11] <ccb0x45> fuck it is driving me fucking crazy
[08:11] <ccb0x45> xorg is such a peice of shit the way it is done
[08:12] <tafkaz> you will have to use the console
[08:12] <tafkaz> Ctrl + Alt F1
[08:12] <ccb0x45> I dont understand
[08:12] <ccb0x45> why sometimes you can test the resolution
[08:12] <ccb0x45> but sometimes it make you log out
[08:12] <ccb0x45> so if you do log out
[08:12] <ccb0x45> it completely fucks your resolution
[08:12] <tafkaz> Ctrl + Alt F1
[08:12] <tafkaz> Ctrl + Alt F1
[08:12] <tafkaz> Ctrl + Alt F1
[08:13] <tafkaz> now login as the user you created
[08:13] <ccb0x45> well I had to reboot
[08:13] <ccb0x45> and lost my keyboard again
[08:13] <ccb0x45> for some unknown reason
[08:13] <tafkaz> then do a ls -l /etc/X11/xorg.conf*
[08:13] <ccb0x45> starting again now
[08:14] <ccb0x45> ok
[08:14] <tafkaz> and then 'sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf.whateverthebackupfileisnamed /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[08:14] <ccb0x45> im there
[08:14] <tafkaz> sorry for the ' . forget that
[08:14] <ccb0x45> like
[08:15] <ccb0x45> failsafe?
[08:15] <ccb0x45> livecd?
[08:15] <tafkaz> what else ?
[08:15] <ccb0x45> xorg.conf.1, 2, 3, 4
[08:15] <tafkaz> is there something else ?
[08:15] <ccb0x45> xorg.conf.failsafe
[08:15] <ccb0x45> and xorg.conf.failsafe.livecd
[08:16] <ccb0x45> I mean
[08:16] <ccb0x45> just xorg.conf.livecd
[08:16] <tafkaz> ok....look at the dates...you will know which date corresponds to a date when the screen used to work
[08:16] <ccb0x45> how do I go back to x?
[08:16] <tafkaz> try mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf.1 /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[08:17] <ccb0x45> ok
[08:17] <ccb0x45> I got a display back
[08:17] <tafkaz> after that reboot
[08:17] <ccb0x45> that isnt cut off
[08:17] <ccb0x45> I didnt reboot
[08:17] <ccb0x45> just did start x
[08:18] <ccb0x45> from the live cd one
[08:18] <tafkaz> dont get it
[08:18] <ccb0x45> but I have a normal screen now
[08:19] <tafkaz> ok....
[08:20] <ccb0x45> ok
[08:21] <ccb0x45> and got my nvidia driver back
[08:21] <ccb0x45> ok
[08:21] <ccb0x45> now
[08:21] <ccb0x45> back to myth tv setup
[08:21] <tafkaz> good
[08:21] <ccb0x45> its prescaling images
[08:21] <ccb0x45> the most annyoing thing ever
[08:21] <ccb0x45> why does it have to do that every time?
[08:21] <tafkaz> dunno
[08:21] <ccb0x45> seems like you would only have to scale images once
[08:22] <tafkaz> didnt do it before....started with new mythbuntu
[08:22] <ccb0x45> ok
[08:22] <tafkaz> another problem that is
[08:22] <ccb0x45> I am in mythtv setup
[08:22] <tafkaz> ok....
[08:22] <tafkaz> now to general
[08:23] <ccb0x45> m there
[08:23] <tafkaz> well...what can i say...just look if everything is ok
[08:23] <ccb0x45> lol
[08:23] <ccb0x45> I get no picture
[08:24] <tafkaz> lol
[08:24] <ccb0x45> anywhere
[08:24] <tafkaz> argh
[08:24] <tafkaz> reinstall
[08:24] <ccb0x45> ive gone through all the options
[08:24] <ccb0x45> no
[08:24] <ccb0x45> I mean no picture from my capture card
[08:24] <ccb0x45> the options are fine
[08:24] <tafkaz> ok...
[08:24] <ccb0x45> I goto capture card
[08:24] <ccb0x45> it says analog l4 whatever
[08:24] <ccb0x45> and has my hauppage
[08:24] <tafkaz> its not an analog one is it ?
[08:25] <ccb0x45> V4L?
[08:25] <tafkaz> naaaaah
[08:25] <tafkaz> dont think so
[08:25] <ccb0x45> what should it be
[08:25] <tafkaz> u can switch to other types
[08:25] <tafkaz> try some that look bertter
[08:25] <ccb0x45> oh wait
[08:25] <tafkaz> hehe
[08:25] <ccb0x45> mpeg2 encoder card
[08:25] <tafkaz> that sounds more like it
[08:25] <tafkaz> but maybe its a dvb card ?
[08:25] <tafkaz> i dont know
[08:26] <tafkaz> try
[08:26] <tafkaz> and remember to scan
[08:26] <ccb0x45> it says
[08:26] <ccb0x45> PVR  x50
[08:26] <tafkaz> afterwards
[08:26] <ccb0x45> scan?
[08:26] <ccb0x45> its just a composite imput
[08:26] <tafkaz> sounds good to me....but i dont know for sure...
[08:26] <tafkaz> you will have to try
[08:26] <ccb0x45> holy
[08:26] <ccb0x45> shit
[08:26] <ccb0x45> I have tv
[08:26] <tafkaz> or ask someone here who has that card
[08:27] <tafkaz> LOL
[08:27] <ccb0x45> switching the capture card
[08:27] <ccb0x45> did it
[08:27] <tafkaz> good to hear
[08:27] <tafkaz> have fun
[08:27] <tafkaz> as a veteran...i can tell you....that was the easy part ! :-)
[08:28] <ccb0x45> im sure
[08:28] <ccb0x45> my wifi card still doesnt work
[08:28] <ccb0x45> I cant get my damn tv to look right
[08:28] <ccb0x45> why is the tv not fullscreen?
[08:28] <tafkaz> nvidia-settings is your friend !
[08:29] <ccb0x45> o
[08:29] <ccb0x45> no
[08:29] <ccb0x45> I mean
[08:29] <tafkaz> or maybe some setting in mythtv-frontend wich makes it start as a window
[08:29] <ccb0x45> like myth tv
[08:29] <ccb0x45> is full screen
[08:29] <ccb0x45> but when I goto watch tv
[08:29] <ccb0x45> its a smaller screen
[08:29] <ccb0x45> is there a way to stretch it?
[08:31] <tafkaz> you will have to look into frontend settings
[08:31] <tafkaz> there you will have to go through tv-> playback settings
[08:34] <ccb0x45> ah
[08:34] <ccb0x45> I got it to stretch
[08:38] <tafkaz> see ?
[08:38] <tafkaz> ok...have fun....have to work now
[09:09] <frink_> yo yo
[09:09] <frink_> anybody here in Taipei?
[10:15] <ccb0x45> anyone here set up myth tv with an hdtv
[10:15] <ccb0x45> im having resolution problems
[11:44] <hugol1> ccb0x45:  I have seen recordings of 720p in mythtv
[11:45] <hugol1> never had any chance of HD live tv
[11:45] <directhex|work> ccb0x45, 1: plug in cable 2) set resolution properly in xorg.conf. that was about it for me
[12:39] <Esine> Hey. Where are the source packages for weekly MythTV Trunk builds?
[12:40] <Esine> It seems your current trunk build has a horrible horrible problem when scanning for new channels, segfaults! (at least in DVB networks)
[12:41] <Esine> so I was hoping of trying the latest SVN trunk if it's been fixed.. and I'd like to use dpkg for managing the packages instead of manually compiling and installing
[12:57] <Daviey> frink_: ping
[13:01] <frink_> Hey Daviey !
[13:02] <Daviey> frink_: pm?
[13:02] <frink_> sure
[13:04] <rooaus> Esine: Actually that is something I have been going to ask as well. Occasionally I have patches that I want to run on my production box before submitting to trac.
[13:04] <Esine> :-)
[15:31] <tembaa> juten tach liebe gemeidne
[18:30] <ccb0x45> hey
[18:31] <ccb0x45> what is the default window manager in mythbuntu
[18:31] <directhex> xfce4
[18:32] <UFO64> aye
[18:32] <ccb0x45> how do you get it to just play a test sound
[18:32] <ccb0x45> so I can see if my damn audio works
[18:32] <Daviey> ccb0x45: aplay /dev/urandom
[18:32] <ccb0x45> ok
[18:33] <Daviey> should hear static (loud)
[18:33] <ccb0x45> ok
[18:33] <ccb0x45> my audio does work
[18:33] <ccb0x45> nice
[18:33] <ccb0x45> about the only thing that works lol
[18:33] <Daviey> \o/
[18:34] <ccb0x45> my wireless card doesnt work, my damn screen is so small on my tv
[18:34] <ccb0x45> I cant get it to output the right resolution
[18:34] <ccb0x45> so its a little square in the middle of the tv
[18:34] <ccb0x45> is there any tool out there
[18:35] <ccb0x45> that I can just put in resolutions and force it to test it?
[18:37] <directhex> what video card do you have?
[18:37] <ccb0x45> its an onboard nvidia
[18:37] <ccb0x45> its using the nvidia settings manager
[18:37] <ccb0x45> but the resolutions it brings up
[18:37] <ccb0x45> are all not right
[18:38] <ccb0x45> for my hdtv
[18:38] <ccb0x45> I know you can make it full screen cause when I connect my mac to it
[18:38] <ccb0x45> it works
[18:38] <tgm4883> what tv?
[18:38] <directhex> 1360x768?
[18:38] <tgm4883> and how do you connect it?
[18:38] <ccb0x45> its a mitsubishi dlp hdtv
[18:39] <ccb0x45> its dvi -> hdmi
[18:39] <ccb0x45> right now
[18:39] <directhex> most teevees give incorrect edid info, so you need to set up a modeline to deal with it
[18:39] <ccb0x45> yea
[18:39] <ccb0x45> thats what ive been trying to do
[18:39] <ccb0x45> but im having tons of trouble
[18:40] <ccb0x45> cause I cant find a good process of doing that
[18:40] <ccb0x45> and does anyone know why when I try to enable vnc in mythbuntu control center and hit apply it just crashes and never enables it
[18:46] <ccb0x45> nobody?
[18:58] <Daviey> ccb0x45: hmm odd.. I do know that X needs to be restarted after enabling VNC tho
[19:00] <ccb0x45> it wont even enable
[19:00] <ccb0x45> it says disabled still
[19:00] <ccb0x45> I click enable, apply
[19:00] <ccb0x45> and it goes into the little progress bar
[19:00] <ccb0x45> and crashes
[19:00] <ccb0x45> I open it back up and its still disabled
[19:30] <therethinker> $test
[19:31] <tgm4883> this is a test
[19:31] <therethinker> What?
[19:31] <therethinker> $test
[19:31] <mythbot> Sorry, mythbot is dead!
[19:31] <tgm4883> $die
[19:31] <mythbot> I die frequently.  It's my prerogative.  Watch out though, one of these day's i'm taking ubotu with me.
[19:32] <therethinker> :P
[19:32] <pdragon> hah
[19:34] <MythbuntuGuest18> I'm having problems with my pcHDTV 5500 and Mythbuntu
[19:35] <MythbuntuGuest18> When I scan for channels it says that it can't access the card.
[19:35] <MythbuntuGuest18> Does someone have suggestions on to what I can do to make this work?
[19:35] <tgm4883> MythbuntuGuest18, what type of card did you set it up as?
[19:36] <MythbuntuGuest18> First I tried PCHDTV, then I tried DVB.
[19:36] <tgm4883> did you remove the pcHDTV setup before trying DVB?
[19:37] <MythbuntuGuest18> Yes.
[19:37] <tgm4883> is this a standard mythbuntu install?
[19:37] <MythbuntuGuest18> Mythbuntu on top of Gusty, so yes.
[19:38] <MythbuntuGuest18> dmesg | grep cx88 detects the card.
[19:38] <toorima> i had to modprobe cx88_dvb before i got my pchdtv5500 to work
[19:38] <tgm4883> sec
[19:38] <tgm4883> toorima, on gutsy?
[19:38] <toorima> yeah
[19:38] <tgm4883> that shouldn't have happened
[19:38] <directhex> gutsy still has the cx88 autodetect bug? lame
[19:38] <tgm4883> not here
[19:39] <toorima> well i used the rc to install with
[19:39] <toorima> maybe fixed in final release?
[19:39] <tgm4883> that should have been fine
[19:39] <tgm4883> it was fixed back in alpha2
[19:39] <Daviey> tgm4883: you are so kind\xcz41
[19:39] <toorima> k
[19:39] <MythbuntuGuest18> cx88_dvb shows up in my lsmod.
[19:42] <MythbuntuGuest18> Any other suggestions?
[19:42] <MythbuntuGuest18> Do I even need to channel scan with SchedulesDirect?
[19:42] <tgm4883> MythbuntuGuest18, when you add the card in setup as a DVB card, does it show up in frontend id?
[19:42] <MythbuntuGuest18> Lets see...
[19:49] <MythbuntuGuest83> mythfrontend reports that tuner 1 & 2 are unavaliable.
[19:49] <tgm4883> sorry, when you are adding the card in mythtv-setup, one of the lines says fronend id:  and detects the card
[19:51] <tgm4883> it might say probed info:
[19:53] <MythbuntuGuest83> Yes.
[19:53] <MythbuntuGuest83> When I try to scan for channels, it says "card can't be opened."
[19:53] <MythbuntuGuest83> I have a /dev/video0 and /dev/video1 device.
[19:55] <tgm4883> what tuners and how many do you have in the machine?
[19:55] <MythbuntuGuest83> I have two pcHDTV 5500 cards.
[20:00] <tgm4883> MythbuntuGuest83, when you add the card in mythtv-setup
[20:00] <tgm4883> does it look like this
[20:00] <tgm4883> http://s227.photobucket.com/albums/dd190/tgm4883/?action=view&current=Screenshot-mythtv-setupreal.png
[20:03] <MythbuntuGuest83> Yes
[20:04] <MythbuntuGuest83> I have NTSC though.
[20:04] <MythbuntuGuest83> Standard analog cable.
[20:04] <tgm4883> why are you using a digital card on analog cable?
[20:05] <MythbuntuGuest83> pcHDTV 5500 has a dual HDTV/Analog tuner.
[20:05] <MythbuntuGuest83> Works with both.
[20:05] <tgm4883> yes
[20:06] <tgm4883> although the analog tuner is a software encoder
[20:06] <MythbuntuGuest83> I know.
[20:07] <MythbuntuGuest83> But I should still be able to use it, right?
[20:08] <tgm4883> yes
[20:10] <tazgodx> tgm4883 do you know of a site where you go to find out what kind of HD antenna you need for your area?
[20:11] <tgm4883> tazgodx, yea, antennaweb
[20:11] <tgm4883> MythbuntuGuest83, which input connection are you trying to scan for?
[20:11] <MythbuntuGuest83> Should I use a different MythTV setting?
[20:11] <tazgodx> ty
[20:11] <bliffle> micro center has good lowprice LCDs. i bought a 32" winbook a couple years ago - its great
[20:11] <tgm4883> bliffle, spam?
[20:12] <tgm4883> MythbuntuGuest83, which input connection?
[20:12] <MythbuntuGuest83> COX input, standard cable.
[20:12] <MythbuntuGuest83> * standard cable cable.
[20:12] <bliffle> no ....i was responding to a leftover msg frm lst nite ....sorry
[20:12] <tgm4883> MythbuntuGuest83, no, in mythtv-setup
[20:12] <tgm4883> bliffle, ah
[20:13] <bliffle> 'tazgodx'  asked
[20:13] <tgm4883> MythbuntuGuest83, mythtv-setup step 4.  Which input connection are you using to setup?
[20:13] <tgm4883> heh 32" winbook sounds like a huge laptop
[20:14] <tazgodx> tazgodx: asked what?
[20:15] <bliffle> ...where to get a good cheap 32 LCD
[20:15] <MythbuntuGuest83> It says "None"
[20:15] <MythbuntuGuest83> I guess that's a problem?
[20:16] <bliffle> at 23:44 oops...oct 15!!! my bad.
[20:16] <tgm4883> how are you scanning for channels if it says non?
[20:16] <MythbuntuGuest83> Step 5 or 6
[20:16] <tgm4883> step 4
[20:17] <MythbuntuGuest83> You can channel scan in step 5
[20:17] <tazgodx> haha, yeah that was a while ago :)
[20:21] <MythbuntuGuest83> What settings should I choose in step 4?
[20:22] <tgm4883> what is listed in step 4?
[20:22] <MythbuntuGuest83> SchedulesDirect With EIT Scan
[20:22] <tgm4883> what is at the top of the list?
[20:22] <tgm4883> does it say
[20:23] <tgm4883> (New video source)
[20:23] <MythbuntuGuest83> DVB: 0
[20:23] <MythbuntuGuest83> and DVB: 1
[20:24] <tgm4883> ok
[20:24] <tgm4883> is there a reason you are doing an EIT Scan?
[20:25] <MythbuntuGuest83> For more accurate lineups
[20:25] <tgm4883> and who told you you'll get more accurate lineups with that?
[20:25] <tgm4883> what country are you in?
[20:25] <MythbuntuGuest83> U.S.
[20:26] <tgm4883> ok
[20:26] <tgm4883> so go into DVB: 0
[20:26] <MythbuntuGuest83> Okay
[20:26] <tgm4883> what capture device is listed
[20:26] <tgm4883> and what input
[20:27] <tazgodx> ok, so now that i know what kind of antenna i need, where is the best place to buy? :)
[20:27] <tgm4883> tazgodx, *shrugs* I picked one up at radioshack
[20:27] <tgm4883> although
[20:27] <MythbuntuGuest83> DVB: 0 and DVBInput
[20:27] <tgm4883> tazgodx, do you have cable?
[20:27] <tazgodx> yeah, i have cable
[20:28] <tgm4883> then you should be able to get the HD channels right from there
[20:28] <tgm4883> tazgodx, country?
[20:28] <tazgodx> US
[20:28] <tgm4883> yea you should be able to get it from the cable, no antenna needed
[20:28] <tazgodx> even with just basic cable?
[20:29] <tgm4883> yea probably
[20:29] <tgm4883> I know I could
[20:29] <tazgodx> ill have to try that out
[20:29] <tazgodx> thanks
[20:29] <tgm4883> you'll get the same channels that are broadcast
[20:29] <tgm4883> MythbuntuGuest83, and what video source
[20:30] <MythbuntuGuest83> Sorry, I have to go.
[20:30] <MythbuntuGuest83> Thanks!
[20:30]  * tgm4883 shoots himself in the head, then retreats into the development channel
[20:32] <tazgodx> haha
[21:09] <magicrobotmonkey> hey what myth theme does mythbuntu use?
[21:10] <Daviey> magicrobotmonkey: Mythbuntu specific one
[21:10] <Daviey> Made especially for mythbuntu
[21:10] <Daviey> (a newer one is also in the works)
[21:10] <magicrobotmonkey> if i have vanilla gutsy with mythtv installed from the repos, can i get it? i like the looks of it
[21:10] <Daviey> yep
[21:10] <magicrobotmonkey> (ill probably switch my backend/frontend to mythbuntu soon though)
[21:10] <magicrobotmonkey> how?
[21:11] <Daviey> erm.. currently it will make you use XFCE tho
[21:11] <magicrobotmonkey> ahh even if i just want the myth theme?
[21:11] <tazgodx> http://ppa.launchpad.net/mythbuntu/ubuntu/pool/main/m/mythtv-theme-mythbuntu/mythtv-theme-mythbuntu_0.20071015~ppa2_all.deb
[21:11] <Daviey> Yeah, there is a specifc package for the theme.. lemme find it
[21:11] <Daviey> magicrobotmonkey: thar you go
[21:11] <magicrobotmonkey> heh sweet thx
[21:12] <magicrobotmonkey> i love the ppa's
[21:12] <Daviey> we couldn't get the theme into ubuntu repo's in time :(

[21:14] <Daviey> magicrobotmonkey: There's a few ways.. we'll discuss it when you need to
