[00:02] <CCB0x45> what does that have to do with streaming?
[00:02] <CCB0x45> hey im trying to install this torrentflux with synaptic
[00:03] <Daviey> nothing.. but it's the nearest you can get to integrating film mangament
[00:03] <Daviey> CCB0x45: to be honest, i install torrentflux from tar/src
[00:03] <CCB0x45> does the media manager still try to get imdb stuff?
[00:03] <DucoNihilum> Hey, I'm trying to set up automatic transcoding- can anyone here help me?
[00:03] <Daviey> media manager?
[00:04] <CCB0x45> the myth tv media manager
[00:04] <Daviey> which part?
[00:04] <Daviey> mythvideo?
[00:04] <CCB0x45> yea
[00:04] <CCB0x45> im still importing my videos super slowly over wifi
[00:04] <CCB0x45> so I havnt been able to try it yet
[00:05] <Daviey> yes
[00:05] <Daviey> It doesn't do it automagically.. you need to "Manage Video's"
[00:06] <CCB0x45> ok
[00:06] <CCB0x45> torrent fluxis asking me the password of my databases administrative user
[00:06] <CCB0x45> does it mean the root db password?
[00:06] <Daviey> yes
[00:07] <Daviey> Have you set one?
[00:08] <CCB0x45> no I didnt
[00:08] <Daviey> You might have to do: http://www.trustix.org/wiki/index.php/MySQL_recover_root_password
[00:08] <CCB0x45> I left it blank
[00:08] <CCB0x45> it seemed to work that time but didnt work the first time
[00:08] <Daviey> groovy
[00:09] <CCB0x45> but it didnt make anything in var/www
[00:09] <CCB0x45> shouldnt it have?
[00:09] <Daviey> I didn't have much luck with the torrentflux packages.. so i stick with manual installation tbh
[00:09] <CCB0x45> great
[00:09] <Daviey> you might need to make a symlink
[00:10] <CCB0x45> from where
[00:10] <CCB0x45> I dunno where it put it
[00:10] <Daviey> try ls  ls /etc/apache2/sites-available/
[00:10] <Daviey> sorry.. can you give me what returns with that command ^
[00:11] <CCB0x45> just default and mythwebdir
[00:12] <CCB0x45> hmm
[00:12] <CCB0x45> should I sym link /usr/share/torrentflux/www
[00:12] <Daviey> sure
[00:13] <CCB0x45> to /var/www/torrentflux
[00:13] <Daviey> sounds good
[00:13] <CCB0x45> ah
[00:13] <CCB0x45> access deinied for user torrentflux@localhost
[00:14] <CCB0x45> using password yes
[00:14] <CCB0x45> I can fix this
[00:14] <CCB0x45> one sec
[00:15] <CCB0x45> it did create the torrentflux db
[00:18] <CCB0x45> ah
[00:18] <CCB0x45> now its working
[00:19] <CCB0x45> nice
[00:19] <CCB0x45> looking good
[00:21] <braddbr> hi, when setting up the backend for the first time (as user 'bradd' i get a 'access denied for user 'mythtv'@'localhost'.. any ideas?
[00:23] <Nixus_Maximus> maybe you have to add your user to the group "mythtv"
[00:34] <CCB0x45> torrent flux is pretty damn sweet
[00:34] <CCB0x45> nice
[00:39] <CCB0x45> now the real problem is why when I goto schedule recordings
[00:39] <CCB0x45> the options are grayed out
[01:39] <dvirsky> hi. i have a small problem with mythbuntu. just installed it, runs perfect, samba shares are enabled, but other machines on the network don't see any folders when browsing this machine on sambe
[01:39] <dvirsky> can anyone offer advice?
[02:10] <stevetv> help!!  box wont start.
[02:11] <stevetv> on boot, it gets to "running local boot scripts (/etc/rc.local)
[02:11] <stevetv> it doesnt get past there though.. the screen flashes,.;. and it doesn;t continue to boot
[02:11] <stevetv> :(
[02:13] <stevetv> it just sits there.. the screen flashing every few seconds.  seemingly not able to get past that rc.local script
[02:13] <JThundley> well did you put anything in there?
[02:13] <stevetv> i haven't changed it ..
[02:18] <stevetv> jthundley .. do you know what rc.local does?
[02:19] <JThundley> yeah, go look at it
[02:19] <JThundley> it's so you can put extra commands to be run on system boot up
[02:19] <JThundley> by default it just exits and does nothing
[02:19] <JThundley> so if you haven't messed with it, I'm guessing X is having a problem starting up
[02:19] <superm1> stevetv, its not rc.local that is crashing
[02:19] <superm1> that is X having trouble
[02:19] <superm1> the last thing before X starts is rc.local getting executed
[02:19] <stevetv> oh.. well thats good
[02:19] <superm1> look at your X logs
[02:19] <superm1> and see what's up
[02:20] <stevetv> :)
[02:20] <stevetv> fatal error
[02:20] <stevetv> no screens found
[02:21] <superm1> look a few lines above that
[02:21] <stevetv> and before that..

[02:24] <braddbr> well my user is in the mythtv group.. i still get 'access denied for user 'mythtv'@'localhost' (using password: YES).. any ideas?

[02:26] <braddbr> ok, i'm using mythbuntu, but i'll look at that thread
[02:26] <superm1> braddbr, that is in the mythbuntu section

[02:29] <stevetv> it's always my tweaking ;)

[02:33] <ubotu> Having issues with 'access denied for user 'mythtv'@'localhost' (using password: YES), please see: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=3691155&postcount=4
[02:34] <superm1> tgm4883, Daviey directhex  ^
[02:49] <braddbr> ok, if i shouldn't ask mythtv-mysql questions here, where can i go? (myth password has been reset with 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure mythtv-common' with no errors)
[02:50] <superm1> well so that worked or no?
[02:51] <braddbr> no, it didn't
[02:51] <superm1> okay so did you end up setting a root password for mysql or no?
[02:51] <braddbr> no, i left it blank
[02:51] <superm1> okay, and did you change the mythtv password?
[02:51] <superm1> (eg what got you here)
[02:52] <braddbr> i changed it to 'mythpass' for now..
[02:52] <superm1> where.
[02:52] <superm1> and why?
[02:52] <braddbr> this is a fresh install of mythbuntu
[02:52] <superm1> right.
[02:52] <superm1> so you changed what where, and when
[02:52] <braddbr> out of the box, mythbackend was giving me errors
[02:52] <superm1> what kind of errors?
[02:52] <braddbr> what i said, cannot connect to database because of access being denied
[02:52] <superm1> is this a secondary backend/frontend?
[02:52] <superm1> or primary?
[02:53] <braddbr> primary, automated install, frontend with primary backend
[02:53] <superm1> okay.
[02:53] <superm1> and what options did you pick during install?
[02:53] <superm1> (perhaps you may have found a bug in the installer)
[02:54] <braddbr> ok, i skipped the part in the installer where i could click to configure mythbackend.. that may have been it.. it didn't seem to work for me the first time around (because of dhcp issues) so soon as it installed i changed to static ip then ran mythtv backend setup
[02:55] <superm1> bingo.
[02:55] <braddbr> ok, so i HAVE to configure in the installer?
[02:55] <braddbr> I can try again if theres a way to set a static ip during the install..
[02:55] <superm1> well you don't "have" to
[02:55] <superm1> but i've seen some weird reports with static ips
[02:56] <superm1> and when mythtv-setup gets run
[02:56] <superm1> and such.
[02:56] <superm1> very very weird reports honestly.
[02:56] <superm1> mythtv-setup is intended to be run before you reboot though
[02:56] <superm1> you really should if you can
[02:57] <braddbr> ok then, i can try to figure out the dhcp error and try to resolve it on my lan
[02:57] <superm1> what dhcp error are you having?
[02:57] <braddbr> well i'm not sure now, i think it was gateway issues
[02:57] <superm1> but if you can hammer out the exact issue that you had here in a bug though
[02:57] <superm1> this would be most ideal
[02:57] <braddbr> but i will try again, i will log everything i do and let you know later
[02:57] <superm1> every time someoen gets soemthing weird like this, they can never list everything they did
[02:58] <superm1> and consequently, we can't reproduce (or fix) it
[02:58] <braddbr> ok i will let you know in about an hour or so
[02:58] <superm1> cool, keep notes :)
[02:58] <superm1> thanks for helping to get this sorted out
[02:58] <braddbr> ok, ty
[03:08] <jason_> howdy
[03:14] <sung> so
[03:14] <sung> got my mythtv box mostly setup
[03:14] <sung> thanks for the help
[03:14] <sung> some last questions:
[03:15] <sung> 1. XvMC -- i have an nvidia vid card that supports XvMC based on what i've read, and i want to enable it.
[03:15] <sung> i tried doing so in the tv playback option, but when i try it, i get an error, failed to reinit video
[03:16] <sung> also, without xvmc, i'm guessing that's why the visualizations suck in full  screet
[03:16] <sung> screen, rather
[03:16] <sung> 2. I've got to pchdtv cards. I'd like to use the "first available" one for doing stuff
[03:16] <sung> and since there are two, i should be able to watch tv and record on another channel at the same time
[03:16] <sung> as well as record two different shows at the same time
[03:16] <sung> make sense?
[03:18] <superm1> sung, i'm headed to bed, if noone answers, make two posts on the forum
[03:18] <superm1> okay
[03:18] <dwf_starband> I have an nvidia card which has the bug of randomly showing a pink screen and locking up when playing back video.
[03:19] <sung> dwf_starband: it's giving you a hint to go get laid ;)
[03:20] <sung> horrible joke, i'm sorry
[03:20] <dwf_starband> in playback settings you can change the prefered decoder, does one of them use the video card less and relly more on the computers processer
[03:20] <dwf_starband> im married, i dont have that problem
[03:22] <dwf_starband> no worries im not offended
[03:23] <dwf_starband> there is Standard, libmpeg, Standard XvMC, and VIA XcMC
[03:24] <dwf_starband> do you know?
[03:24] <sung> no, i'm sorry :(
[03:24] <sung> well
[03:24] <sung> standard uses no acceleration
[03:24] <sung> libmpeg apparently works better on amd processors
[03:24] <dwf_starband> thats what I have been using
[03:24] <sung> well
[03:24] <sung> does the machine lock up hard?
[03:24] <jason_> any linux audio gurus here?
[03:24] <sung> or can you still ssh into it?
[03:26] <dwf_starband> it depends, im just learning to use ssh, and its only happened once since i started using it, I tried sshing in and wasnt able to, but then sometimes if press escape and wait a few minutes it returns to the myth menu
[03:26] <dwf_starband> the problem is its a randomly occuring problem, so its hard to troubleshoot because it only happens when i dont have time to mess with it
[03:28] <dwf_starband> sometimes like right now, the screen is scrambled pink but still has sound and I can exit normaly
[03:29] <sung> iteresting
[03:29] <sung> i really wouldn't know where to troubleshoot htat
[03:30] <sung> maybe instead of being a mythtv problem, it's a general X problem with your chipset
[03:30] <sung> what chipset do you have
[03:30] <sung> or vid card
[03:30] <dwf_starband> nvidia
[03:30] <sung> model?
[03:30] <dwf_starband> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=572057
[03:30] <dwf_starband> 7300
[03:31] <dwf_starband> I started that thread a while back, and there are others with the same problem, but no solutions
[03:31] <dwf_starband> its a 7300 GT
[03:32] <sung> I did a bit research and found out that it's a bug in nvidia driver version 100.14.19. NVidia has annouced that the cause of this problem has been identified and it should be fixed in a future driver release. So it seems we either have to downgrade to previous version or just wait for the next driver release.
[03:33] <sung> __________________that was a week aog
[03:33] <dwf_starband> then someone reported downgrading didnt help
[03:33] <sung> upgrading?
[03:35] <dwf_starband> The beta driver didn't do the trick for me. Pink screen and lockups still occur, even though they haven't been so common now I think.
[03:35] <dwf_starband> from 6 days ago
[03:35] <sung> It's an nvidia bug. I tried downgrading with envy, but had lockup issues. I grabbed 100.14.11 from the nvidia website and all is well now.
[03:35] <sung> that version?
[03:35] <sung> screwy
[03:35] <sung> i'd help further
[03:35] <sung> but i can barely see
[03:35] <sung> and i dont know where my glasses are
[03:35] <sung> and i need to get my contacts out
[03:36] <dwf_starband> that sucks, contacts really suck
[03:36] <dwf_starband> im thinking about lasic next year
[03:36] <sung> i just started using them a few days
[03:36] <sung> ago
[03:36] <sung> so my eyes arent used to them
[03:36] <sung> and now they're burning
[03:37] <sung> NICE
[03:38] <sung> wow
[03:38] <sung> kanye west stronger video is great
[03:43] <dwf_starband> hmm, interesting, this is the first time it hasnt hard frozen that I had time to mess with it, changing refresh rate did the fix for now
[04:51] <sung> okay
[05:40] <benanzo> when the screensaver comes on while I've been away from mythtv for a bit it wont go away when I press buttons on my remote like it used to.  Is there a way to fix this?
[05:40] <benanzo> so I'm stuck at a black screen
[05:41] <dwf_starband> can you disable the screensaver? if its on your tv dont you turn the tv off anyways?
[05:43] <benanzo> Yes it's on my TV but when I turn it back on the screensaver doesn't go away when I press a button on my remote
[05:44] <benanzo> so my TV is on, but I'm stuck at the black screen
[05:44] <benanzo> the screensaver used to go away when I pressed a button, but I just installed the newest MythBuntu and now the screensaver stays even if I press a button
[05:45] <dwf_starband> so cant you disable the screensaver? thats what I was asking if it was on your tv, if thats the case you dont need the screensaver for anything
[05:45] <benanzo> Yes I could.  How would I disable it in MythBuntu?
[05:46] <dwf_starband> not sure, ive just set mine up and havent had that problem yet
[05:47] <benanzo> OK, I'll check around thanks
[05:47] <dwf_starband> sorry I couldnt help, im going to look, because it would be nice to know, if you find it before me let me know, ok?
[05:56] <benanzo> gnome-screensaver-preferences
[05:56] <benanzo> that fixed it
[05:57] <dwf_starband> ok
[05:57] <dwf_starband> are you using just mythbuntu or are you using the gnome desktop?
[06:00] <dwf_starband> thanks, i changed it on mine, ill findo out if it worked or not
[06:02] <benanzo> MythBuntu
[06:02] <benanzo> that's better

[11:25] <Toast> Hi, I can't get seem to download 7.10. The torrent tracker is down and the direct link gives a blank page. Does anyone have an alternative source? Thanks.
[11:25] <Toast> 7.10 of mythbuntu, sorry, I didn't ee I had been redirected.
[11:27] <Daviey> Toast: did iy not work first time?
[11:30] <Toast> The redirect was from #mythbuntu to #ubuntu-mythtv. The download didn't redirect.
[11:31] <superm1> wha??
[11:31] <superm1> Toast, can you try it again?
[11:31] <superm1> i hope you didnt have a broken mirror in the redirect list
[11:32] <Toast> Nothing. I'm downloading from http://www.mythbuntu.org/download/?file=mythbuntu-7.10-i386.iso
[11:32] <superm1> Daviey, it almost sounds as it might be worthwhile to give a "Download will start soon blah blah" on that page, but if it doesn't here is the mirror your directed to
[11:32] <superm1> Toast, are you using adblock plus?
[11:32] <Toast> Baby just woke up. may dissapear without warning.
[11:32] <superm1> with a ton of stuff on it that might be filtering javascript
[11:32] <Toast> superm1: yes, and no.
[11:33] <superm1> Toast, can you disable it for this page
[11:33] <superm1> and try it again
[11:33] <superm1> or for mythbuntu.org better yet
[11:33] <Toast> The only think adblock is blocking from the download page is the google-analytics script.
[11:33] <superm1> yeah someone else that happened to as well
[11:34] <superm1> that stops our click tracking to figure out how many people download ISOs
[11:34] <superm1> and then the page broke
[11:34] <superm1> he allowed the analytics to run and then it worked
[11:34] <Toast> That fixed it.
[11:35] <Toast> Don't really like to have to enable tracking though.
[11:35] <Toast> Thanks.
[11:35] <superm1> well we dont like inaccurate counts
[11:35] <superm1> of isos
[11:35] <superm1> :)
[11:35] <superm1> that is also how we determine where the load balancing needs to go to
[11:35] <superm1> so there is a good reason for it in there
[11:36] <Toast> What about people without java? I normally use wget for iso's
[11:36] <Toast> I don't block all scripts for the sake of it :)
[11:37] <superm1> well try to wget that url
[11:37] <Toast> only pop-overs and a few known external trackers. Anything from your site would get through.
[11:37] <superm1> and you will see where it will be redirecting to
[11:37] <superm1> ande why its filtered
[11:39] <Toast> True, though you do have to view the page source. Now I know the link is in the source, I can also do the same from Firefox!
[11:39] <Toast> Ok. Thanks again :)

[16:40] <Daviey> tominglis: i suspect not.. You can "record" the remote manually tho
[16:41] <Daviey> If you submit your recording to us, we can get it included in future versions

[20:03] <sullyt> Okay,  I've concluded that the headers (linux-headers-2.6.22-14-generic) do not match the actual Kernel for ALSA modules.   I am doing a full Kernel build from source.
[20:04] <sullyt> What the best place to do a bug report against the mismatch in Gutsy.
[20:05] <sullyt> Also, anyone interested in working with me on doing a writeup on the Plextor TV402u once I get it working?
[20:06] <sullyt> My mythtv that I used for the last 2.5 years worked super well with this device.   Produces mpeg4 shows at ~1g/hr at high resolution.  Uses almost no CPU.
[21:16] <MythbuntuGuest56> Just testing the Java IRC Client.  Should I be seeing traffic here?
[21:18] <JThundley> not on the weekend :)
[21:35] <tgm4883_laptop> It does help if you have a question to ask it :)
[22:07] <VonGuard> hi there
[22:17] <sullyt> Okay, recompiled the kernel and the tv402u now load fine.   Confirmed that linux-headers-2.6.22-14-generic does not match installed kernel for ALSA.
[23:17] <VonGuard> is there a way to get at an itunes music share rom mythtv?
