solarbabyI dont see any option to delete a transcoder for Recording Profiles00:19
solarbabyIf you simply delete the profile name it still leaves an entry in there00:23
solarbabythis bites00:23
solarbabyI guess that doesn't matter or else there would be a delete option in there00:36
RealNitroA lot of changes happened since my first post here tonight00:49
RealNitroand most stuff seems to work00:49
RealNitrobut the last bit, watching tv using mythtv locks up my system :/00:50
RealNitroThis error appears in mythfrontend.log: "NVP::AddAudioData():p1: Audio buffer overflow, audio data lost!"00:51
solarbabysuperm1: one of the things that I noticed really sucks is that If I play a transcoded mpg file it messes up my 350 TV Out, so that I can't play anything that hasn't been transcoded, until a reboot00:54
solarbabysuperm1: does the same thing with avi files00:55
* RealNitro goes to sleep01:03
RealNitrothx for the help01:03
Tariif I wanted to do a net install of mythbuntu, could I?01:08
Tarithe CD drive on the machine throws read errors, and I verified the disc when I burned it01:09
POWERTOWERanyone intersted in helping with display driver problems?01:12
Wy|laptopWoot, linux MMO!01:27
POWERTOWERanyone intersted in helping with display driver problems?01:48
foxbuntuPOWERTOWER, what seems to be the issue?01:49
POWERTOWERunable to get the x1250 drivers working properly01:50
POWERTOWERI have folowed tuturials from AMD to install the drivers but after finishing, i run fglrxinfo and Mesa instead of ATI drivers are loaded01:51
foxbuntudid you change the xorg?01:51
POWERTOWERThe xorg states its using ati drivers01:52
foxbuntuok01:52
foxbuntuis your card supported by the drivers?01:53
POWERTOWERit was a link specificaly under the 1250 site for amd01:53
POWERTOWERI would hope so but that wou explain lots01:53
foxbuntuhave you tried using the opensource drivers instead?01:53
POWERTOWERmebe, which one is that?01:54
foxbuntufglrx01:54
POWERTOWERyeah tried that01:54
foxbuntuhave you tried the restricted drivers manager?01:54
POWERTOWERI think this ati chipset juist came out a few months ago01:54
foxbuntuoh that would be an issue01:54
POWERTOWERyeah, when allowing restricted drivers, the screen boots black01:55
foxbuntuit may not support the chipset yet?01:55
foxbuntuer01:55
foxbuntuthe drivers may not support the kernel yet01:55
foxbuntulet me look01:55
POWERTOWERWell I dont want to wait, could you recomend a easy to install Make and Model video card with RCA out?01:56
foxbuntuI assume you pulled the driver from the ati website?01:56
POWERTOWERyeah01:56
foxbuntuor amd rather01:56
foxbuntuyou shouldnt have to reboot the machine after the install01:57
POWERTOWERI have tried the driver for windows and it worked OK, but no go on ubuntu01:57
foxbuntubut try running the install via ssh or plain shell01:57
POWERTOWERI ran it in the terminal01:57
foxbuntuyou grabbed the linux drivers right?01:57
POWERTOWEROf course...lol01:57
foxbuntuwell...you should see the questions sometimes01:58
foxbuntusorry01:58
POWERTOWERI bet....01:58
POWERTOWERI a semi noober myself01:58
foxbuntudo this01:58
foxbuntualt+f201:58
foxbuntu(I think)01:59
foxbuntushould bring up the shell01:59
POWERTOWERshows desktop01:59
foxbuntunope01:59
foxbuntualt+f101:59
POWERTOWERyeah01:59
foxbuntuis it the run command or the black shell?01:59
POWERTOWERits the shell/terminal01:59
foxbuntuok01:59
foxbuntulogin to that02:00
foxbuntuthen sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop02:00
foxbuntuthen sudo ./driver-pkg.run02:01
foxbuntuwhatever the name and location is02:01
POWERTOWERhrmm...02:01
POWERTOWERshould have done this through putty02:01
foxbuntueither way works02:02
foxbuntudid you get that?02:03
POWERTOWERtring to figure out how to navigate to my desktop in the command line02:04
foxbuntu/home/username/Desktop02:05
POWERTOWEROK its rinning02:06
foxbuntuk02:06
POWERTOWERasking to install driver 8..... or generate distribution specific driver package02:07
foxbuntulet it generate one02:07
foxbuntuit will build the kernel driver for it then02:07
POWERTOWERenter install path02:08
Wy|laptopUm, why are you using that instead of using the version of the fglrx driver that creates a .deb?02:09
foxbuntujust hit enter and it should use its defaults02:09
POWERTOWERno write permissions02:09
Wy|laptopafaik, the fglrx package lets you make a .deb package for your appropriate distro (ubuntu/gutsy)02:09
foxbuntuWy|laptop, I dont think his chipset is supported by fglrx yet02:09
Wy|laptopIt is.02:09
Wy|laptophttp://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Gutsy_Installation_Guide02:09
foxbuntuPOWERTOWER, did you run it as sudo?02:10
Wy|laptopI use a x2400HD on mine02:10
POWERTOWERyea02:10
foxbuntuhmm02:10
Wy|laptopfollow the method 2 instructions there, POWERTOWER02:10
POWERTOWERfrom the wiki?02:10
foxbuntuPOWERTOWER, http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Gutsy_Installation_Guide#Method_1:_Install_the_Driver_the_Ubuntu_Way02:10
foxbuntuWy|laptop, thanks...didnt see that before02:10
Wy|laptopyeah02:11
POWERTOWERHow would anything in linux get done without documentation....02:17
Wy|laptopCarefully.02:17
Wy|laptopand by self documenting code. :P :P :P02:17
POWERTOWERwhen I run this code "gksu gedit /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common" i get "cannot open display"02:18
POWERTOWERcause im in putty?02:18
foxbuntuyes02:18
Wy|laptopunless you have an xserver and xtunneling expressly enabled on your windows and myth boxes, it won't work02:19
Wy|laptopYour windows box will need http://sourceforge.net/projects/xming02:19
POWERTOWERYeah no go on that, if i hit escape on grub loader what option could i use to enter the command line?02:20
Wy|laptopwhy not just vim /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common ?02:20
Wy|laptopor nano02:20
Wy|laptopor any other editor02:20
POWERTOWERno worries its already been edited02:28
POWERTOWERHey Wy|laptop, that tutorial fixed my display problem...but noy my mythtv front end is broken...any ideas?02:53
Wy|laptophow is it broken?02:58
POWERTOWERopens then closes imediatly02:59
POWERTOWERsame with the backend02:59
dwf_starbandis there a howto for opening up your mythweb to outside your local network?03:00
Wy|laptopno howto, I don't think03:01
dwf_starbandis it complicated?03:01
Wy|laptopBUT, you shouldn't need one, because it's not a mythweb issue03:01
Wy|laptopWhat is your 'local network'?03:01
Wy|laptopdsl/cable + router?03:01
Wy|laptopthen look into port forwarding on your router, + using encryption on mythweb03:02
dwf_starbandeverything inside my router, i have port 80 forwarded, but that doesnt work03:02
Wy|laptopyou should have port 80 forwarded03:02
Wy|laptopit should work03:02
dwf_starbandit workes from a computer with a 192.168.0. address, but not from outside03:03
Wy|laptopare you set up to allow outside connections?03:04
Wy|laptopon apache03:04
dwf_starbandif i browse to my outside address from within my network it forwards me properly03:04
dwf_starbandthats probably my problem, how do i change that?03:05
POWERTOWERNow when I run mythtv backend, its says the libraries are missing03:05
Wy|laptoppowertower: er...03:06
Wy|laptopdid you screw something up? the wiki I showed you shouldn't have done anything03:07
Wy|laptopwrt to your myth binaries03:07
POWERTOWERI think im going to run fresh install, been trying to many tutorials - something probably gave in03:07
POWERTOWERbut the wiki did work so im going to book mark that03:07
Wy|laptopYeah, I think you broke something03:07
Wy|laptopdwf: lemme check. stand by.03:08
dwf_starbandok thanks03:08
POWERTOWERsomeone needs to post that in ubuntu forms, there is many users looking for that info03:08
Wy|laptoppowertower: reinstall and then use the tutorial I showed you to get X working03:08
Wy|laptoppowertower: Sounds like you've got yourself a job03:08
POWERTOWERWill do thanks Wy|laptop03:08
Wy|laptopdwf: gimme a sec03:09
dwf_starbandno worries, im trying to google too03:10
Wy|laptopNot googling, sshing to my setup to figure it out03:10
dwf_starbandoh, ok03:10
Wy|laptopimplement a password by using vim /var/www/mythweb/.htaccess03:19
Wy|laptopor nano03:19
Wy|laptopand you're sure that your firewall forwarding works?03:21
dwf_starbandif I browse to my outside address from inside my network it forwards me, so I am assuming it is03:21
dwf_starbandok, what do i do in /.htaccess03:22
Wy|laptopalso, what provider are you using?03:23
dwf_starbandstarband03:24
Wy|laptopthat's a satellite provider, right?03:25
Wy|laptopthey may not allow inbound connections03:25
dwf_starbandthey do, i had a personal wiki on my windows machine a year or so ago, it worked fine03:25
dwf_starbandi can ssh in, and vnc works as well03:26
Wy|laptopokay03:26
Wy|laptophrm. can you change your port forwarding to your windows machine and fire up a web server?03:26
dwf_starbandum,03:28
dwf_starbandthen i would need to get one working on there again,03:28
Wy|laptopjust wondering if it's a provider problem03:29
dwf_starbandI dont even have a keyboard or monitor on that machine03:29
Wy|laptop*nod*03:30
Wy|laptophrm03:30
BHSPitMonkeywoah!03:51
dwf_starbandwoah!03:52
BHSPitMonkey/var/log/mythtv filled up my hard drive by churning out 64GB of log files!03:52
BHSPitMonkeythat's tough to fathom03:52
BHSPitMonkeyanyone heard of such buggage?03:53
Wy|laptopwhat is your loglevel at?03:57
Wy|laptopcrazy03:57
BHSPitMonkeydefault04:06
BHSPitMonkeythis is a fresh install04:06
Wy|laptopcrazy04:11
Wy|laptopwhat are the log errors?04:11
galileoAnyone available to help me figure out why I've got no sound?04:52
galileoI get test tones from the Sound Preferences window, but nothing in MythFrontend or any of my media players (xine, totem)04:54
galileoNever had sound in MythFrontend, but Totem was working fine until I installed DVD support and whatever updates were telling me they needed to be installed.  Post-install, I've lost my previously working sound.04:55
foxbuntugalileo, have you checked in Mythfrontend if you are using the internal sounds controls or external, what your output source is, and alsamixer to see if anything is muted?04:57
galileoer...  correction:  since my last reboot, even the Sound Preferences window has stopped making noise.  :-/04:57
galileothe mixer looks good.  Everything but the microphone is unmuted and non-zero volume.04:58
foxbuntugalileo, in alsamixer are the letters at the bottom MM or 0004:59
galileoMaster, PCM, CD, Video, and External are all 0005:00
foxbuntuk05:00
galileoI was watching videos in totem earlier tonight with no problems.05:01
foxbuntuand it only stopped working when you installed mythtv?05:01
foxbuntuhave you checked the audio settings inside mythfrontend?05:02
galileoI installed a) libdvdcss and some associated items and b) some updates from the update manager.  I did both consecutively, so I'm not sure which might be responsible.05:02
galileoMy mythfrontend has always been spotty, so I've been operating mostly from the GNOME/openbox desktop.  I'm pretty sure my mythfrontend settings have never been quite right.;05:03
galileothough now i've lost the ability to make sound outside myth as well05:03
foxbuntugalileo, try this (to make sure you have everything you need) sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade05:03
galileoworking...05:05
foxbuntuk05:05
galileoran to the point of my normal error at this point:05:05

foxbuntuyou need to fix that05:06
foxbuntumythbuntu-desktop has allot of settings in there05:06
galileolol, probably, yeah05:06
foxbuntuand MCC is super nice05:06
galileowhich brings me to another snag:05:06

galileoImportError: No module named MythbuntuControlCentre.core05:07
foxbuntuI am now assuming you installed Ubuntu desktop and you are upgrading to Mythbuntu05:07
galileoI installed mythbuntu first, then apt-get'd the desktop... (or something like that)05:07
foxbuntuso you installed MB from the CD?05:08
galileoyes05:08
foxbuntuok05:08
foxbuntusounds like you need to yank MCC and put it back in05:08
foxbuntutry05:08
galileoback in September, and I've been messing with it off and on ever sense.  It's my first myth system.  It's an older computer (though capable) and it's the only one running myth-anything at this point.05:09
foxbuntusudo apt-get remove --purge mythbuntu-control-center05:09
foxbuntugalileo, have you installed with our Release disk?05:09
galileonot if it's more recent05:10
galileoremove finished05:10
foxbuntuWe had release one on Ubuntu 7.10 a few weeks ago05:10
foxbuntusudo apt-get install mythbuntu-control-centre05:11

galileoI've only been keeping up with Update Manager05:11

foxbuntusudo apt-get install -f05:11
galileostill getting the same "no module" error if I run it.05:12
foxbuntugalileo, thats really stragne05:12

foxbuntulol05:13
foxbuntui am on a roll tonight05:13
* foxbuntu can't type tonight05:13
foxbuntuanyhow..05:14
foxbuntuthat error really makes no sense05:14
galileoI'm removing the lirc stuff too...  it was a lirc update that failed and grabbed my attention a couple weeks ago.  I've just been ignoring it until I had time to deal.05:14
foxbuntugalileo, you might want to try a reload..unless you have a ton of recordings or something you are trying to save05:15
foxbuntuyou seem to have several broken packages05:15
galileoI could probably do that.05:15
galileoguess there goes another weekend.  :-)05:16
foxbuntunaw05:16
foxbuntugalileo, where do you live05:16

foxbuntuwonder how lirc got so broken05:17
galileoI *might* have chosen the wrong remote, but I really wouldn't have expected that to cause this much headache05:18
foxbuntunaw05:18
galileough, it's telling me I have to restart my login session...  brb05:18
foxbuntuk05:18
foxbuntuwelcome back galileo05:23
galileothanks05:23
galileoanything else I ought to try to fix before tackling my sound problems?  :-)05:24
foxbuntudid you get those upgrades in?05:25
galileoeverything seems happy.  there's one mythfrontend package running right now05:27
galileoand even when I install it, it rescans and says it needs to be installed again.05:28
foxbuntuI assume the one that says its needs upgraded is ubuntu-mythtv-frontend?05:30
galileoyes05:30
foxbuntuyea..I actually have that on my machine as well...but I am not sure the cause05:30
foxbuntuso ignore it05:30
galileoignored05:30
foxbuntugot sound now?05:31
galileoso, I'm checking my sound preferences and just noticed that all of my playback settings say "VIA 82C68A/B rev590 (Not Conntected)"05:31
galileoThey did not used to say Not Connected.05:31
foxbuntuhmm05:31
foxbuntuis it disabled in the bios for some reason?05:31
galileoAnd now my greater Linux ignorance kicks in.  I'm not sure who disconnected them or how to reconnect it.05:32
galileoI've not touched my bios in weeks and it was working earlier this evening, so I'm going to venture that it's not turned off in the bios.05:32
foxbuntuthat really sounds like they are disabled in the bios05:32
galileohowever, I'll be more than happy to restart and verify05:32
foxbuntuok05:32

foxbuntuk05:33
rhpot1991anyone have any idea why telling a job to stop in the info center doesn't seem to do anything?05:33
rhpot1991(custom) job keeps running till its done, unless I kill it myself05:34
foxbunturhpot1991, what job and where in the infocenter?05:38
rhpot1991custom script to export to ipod video05:39
foxbunturhpot1991, you mean myth2ipod/05:39
foxbuntu?05:39
rhpot1991and info center, system status, job queue05:39
foxbunturhpot1991, are you using myth2ipod?05:40
rhpot1991its a variation of this script here: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Ipod_export05:40
rhpot1991myth2ipod is out dated so I decided not to mess with it05:40
foxbunturhpot1991, prob a good idea...however Im not sure why it wouldnt kill for you...05:42
foxbuntubut info center seems to act like that allot05:42
foxbuntugalileo, any such luck there/05:42
foxbuntu?05:42
rhpot1991ya, not really a big deal, I'm just messing with some bugs now and its annoying to have to kill it myself every time05:43
galileoProgress...  I get the incredibly annoying test screech from the sound preferences.05:43
galileoStill nothing from mythfrontend or totem05:43
rhpot1991iTunes likes to complain about long file names and all05:43
foxbunturhpot1991, agreed05:43
foxbunturhpot1991, actually I am start devel on better ipod support for MythTV05:44
galileoand I suppose while were fixing all the little (big) things I keep ignoring, I'll mention that everytime I exit the frontend it tells me it can't connect to the master backend server.05:44
foxbuntugalileo, hrm05:45
foxbuntuI am stumped05:45
rhpot1991foxbuntu what are the plans?05:45
rhpot1991I left a comment in the ipod task for mythbuntu05:45
galileois there some reason my aps just aren't going through the ALSA driver?  Are they hooked up to the wrong device?05:46
galileo(ramblings of a clueless madman, btw)05:46
foxbunturhpot1991, this export feature, Mythmusic PnP support, and perhaps iTunes streams05:46
foxbuntugalileo, try looking at the Mythfrontend settings menu05:46
foxbuntuit usually defaults to its interal audio controls05:47
foxbuntu(which I dislike)05:47
galileois there a way to open that in a window so I can keep switching back here?05:48
foxbuntujust switch back with alt+tab05:48
galileoI'm just going through my apps trying to find what works and what doesn't.  Rythmbox makes noise.  Not everything is broken05:49
foxbuntuok05:49
rhpot1991foxbuntu I'd be interested in helping out some, tgm4883 invited me to the last developer meeting but I couldn't make it05:50
foxbunturhpot1991, we have another one coming up05:50
rhpot1991ya, I'll have to try and make it05:50
rhpot1991would I need any special setup, or can I be doing work on my main mythbox?05:51
foxbunturhpot1991, we certialy could use the help...we have tons of specs to get through by release05:51
galileofox, my audio output device is ALSA:default05:51
foxbunturhpot1991, you will destroy your mythbox  so thats not a great idea05:51
foxbuntugalileo, thats right, but is the box checked to use internal controls?05:51
galileothe passthrough output is just default, but I've got an ALSA:iec598... option as well.05:52
galileoYes, internal controls were checked.  uncheck that?05:52
rhpot1991how do most people normally do it, do I need actual hardware for it to touch or can I just set up an instance on vmware or something05:52
foxbuntugalileo, yes uncheck it05:52
galileodone05:52
foxbunturhpot1991, most testing is done in virtual machines05:53
foxbuntucertian things have to be tested on hardwre ,but we have pleanty of people that test on hardware05:53
rhpot1991does the vm need to have access to a tuner?05:54
foxbunturhpot1991, nope05:54
rhpot1991excelent05:54
galileostill no sound.  thanks for your help on the other stuff...  at least now I can get to all my settings.  I'm headed to bed for tonight though.  The rest will have to wait.05:54
foxbunturhpot1991, what kind of code experience do you have? (just wondering)05:54
foxbuntugalileo, alright05:54
foxbuntugod luck05:54
foxbuntugood luck*05:55
rhpot1991perl is the most relivant05:55
foxbunturhpot1991, awesome05:55
rhpot1991c++, java, vb05:55
rhpot1991no python sadly05:55
* foxbuntu shutters at java05:55
rhpot1991I do asp.net work for work05:55
rhpot1991currently that is05:55
foxbunturhpot1991, you will pickup python pretty easy05:56
foxbuntuI did05:56
rhpot1991ya I'd imagine it wouldn't be too far of a stretch05:56
rhpot1991brb, gotta make some iced tea for work tomorrow05:56
rhpot1991now if only my comcast connection wasn't crap...06:14
galileofoxbuntu, still around?06:37
levanderSomebody was in here telling me the packge to install if I just want all the mythbuntu stuff on top of a regular GNOME ubuntu system.  I thought it was just called "mythbuntu", but apparently, there's not package named that.08:11
levanderWhat's the name of the package?08:13
levanderOkay, apparently it's "mythtv" that I install.  But, from looking and guessing, it doesn't look like I also get MCC if I do it that way...08:15

stevetvhttp://www.rastersoft.com/programas/devede.html21:13
stevetvhe Mplayer/Mencoder version in Ubuntu Feisty is buggy and produces noisy sound when used with DeVeDe.21:13
tgm4883_laptopeh, im not a fan of devede, i only used it once and it dodn't work21:13
stevetvhmm.. ive had success with it on fedora.. not ubuntu tho21:14
DaveMorrisI've used thoggen dvd ripper, it was straight forward.  Can only output as ogg though21:14
stevetvyeah.. i need to go from avi>dvd21:14
tgm4883_laptopstevetv, what are you trying to do?  Rip DVD's?21:14
tgm4883_laptopoh21:14
stevetvlol.. hey!.. i could use myth!21:15
tgm4883_laptopis this somehow mythbuntu related?21:15
stevetvmytharchive should do that.. but it doesnt work21:15
stevetver.. when i try to select the avi file.. it doesnt check it.  it puts a red something next to it.21:15
stevetvit works for recordings tho21:16
stevetvit is suposed to convert videos (avi) tho too right?21:16
* tgm4883_laptop shrugs21:17
* tgm4883_laptop only uses it for recordings21:17
stevetvhmm.. maybe it's not then.. ill find out.21:17
stevetvfrom myth wiki: MythArchive is a new plugin for MythTV that lets you create DVDs from your recorded shows, MythVideo files and any video files available on your system21:18
stevetvi'll figure it out.21:19
tgm4883_laptopstevetv, it probably has to be on the same machine21:21
tgm4883_laptopnot over NFS21:21
stevetv..wait.. maybe it's not.  can someone define a "mythvideo" file.21:21
tgm4883_laptopor any other network share21:21
stevetvyes.. its on the same machine.  its an avi of my sisters wedding.  i wanted to make a dvd playable dvd for her21:22
tgm4883_laptophmm21:23
tgm4883_laptopis it dv video?21:23
stevetvit was initially recorded with a digital video camera.  that went onto my computer.  my dad transcoded it to an avi file, and it came to me.  since then the original video was lost.. so the avi is all that remains.  i wanted to convert it back to a format playable on a dvd21:25
stevetvlol.. that doesnt make sense.  went onto MY DADs computer and was transcoded..21:25
tgm4883_laptophmm21:26
tgm4883_laptophave you successfully archived other things in mytharchive?21:26
stevetvonly recordings previously21:26
tgm4883_laptopI ask because I think my first time was a little difficult figuring it out21:26
tgm4883_laptopk21:26
tgm4883_laptopso.......21:27
tgm4883_laptopback to devede21:27
stevetvit needs Mplayer 1.0~rc2 i believe21:28
stevetvor at least the devede website says that the version of mplayer / memcoder bundled with 7.10 doesn't work21:28
superm1stevetv, hm lets see if that finished up the hardy build yet21:28
superm1so i can get a gutsy backport21:29
stevetv:) .. i did read that post superm121:29
superm1hm not done yet21:29
superm1perhaps i'll push it to a ppa in the meanwhile21:29
superm1its been sitting in the queue for days21:29
stevetvdude don't do anything on my account.21:29
stevetvi can likely just use dvdauthor from command line..21:30
stevetvtho im not certain that will work as devede is simply a gui for the programs that ill need to use with dvdauthor21:31
stevetvand i fear the same problems may happen.. tho i haven't tried21:31
stevetvdvdauthor seems to work fine.  so im fine. thanks for help gents21:49
