portahexwhat's powertweak when it's at home?01:17
=== MythbuntuGuest29 is now known as stevetv
stevetvsuperm1.  just to let you know, that mplayer update you provided made a dramatic differnce for my system with my settings.04:58
stevetvwhere i was forced to use bob for live tv playback to prevent artifacts in fast motion video, i now do not.  bob made things slightly blury, were's now they're much sharper.  danke04:59
stevetvi did have to apt-get dist-upgrade tho.  im not sure if that was intended.. but the memplayer, memcoder, ffmpeg and something else were held back until i dist-graded.05:01
superm1_stevetv, great to hear it works better05:02
superm1_stevetv, i'm pretty sure dist-upgrade was necessary because of added dependeicneis05:05
stevetvsuperm1.  yup.  it added dependencies.  it really is a dramatic improvement.  i was actually begining to go back to my tv's tuners for live tv05:08
superm1_stevetv, did you get it from gutsy-backports?05:10
superm1_or from the ppa?05:11
superm1_(because its on gutsy-backports now too)05:11
beavistgm4883, I converted all the time strings now, so things like remaining_time etc are possible now with the notifier, I'll commit the changes soon17:40
beavisthe mythbackend-notifier now displays a line next to the icon which shows the time left (long line means 100% left, no line means recording almost finished)18:49
levanderI just install the mytharchive package, but there's no "Archive Files" option in the "Optical Disks" menu.  Is this because I don't have a DVD burner on the machine yet?18:50
levanderjust installed**18:51
MythbuntuGuest44So I have a Kworld pvr plus 7133 3/d tuner card that won't register with mythbuntu.  I am extremely new with linux, and have very basic knowledge of the Unix command line.  How would I configure this card?19:23
MythbuntuGuest44I have done a fair amount of looking, but still can't get it operational19:23
portahexdid you actually check the card is compatible?19:25
portahexick, looks like a framegrabber19:27
MythbuntuGuest44I don't really know how to do that.  I did check wiki to see what was there, and it looks like the chipset is compatible even though the card itself is not listed19:27
MythbuntuGuest44on the box it says pvr-tv 8133 (supports stereo /mts) NTSC tv19:30
MythbuntuGuest44pvr-tv 713319:30
MythbuntuGuest44what would I need to do to get the card working in mythbuntu19:32
superm1MythbuntuGuest44, check out dmesg to see if the card was loading19:38
superm1and then see if there are any errors there19:38
superm1if it wanted to know tuner type19:38
superm1etc19:38
MythbuntuGuest44Okay, so real quick I am really a newb and then some, so I can get to the command line, but really need it spelled out when typing it in.19:40
superm1dmesg19:40
superm1is the command you will type19:40
MythbuntuGuest44okay, It is booting up19:41
superm1hey keescook when you are around again, can you take a gander at https://launchpad.net/bugs/124514.  You've touched procps in the past19:41
superm1(and your core-dev)19:41
superm1keescook, i'm not sure of the ramifications of such an option, so hopefully you are more familiar with what would happen when changing memory allocation settings19:43
MythbuntuGuest44Okay so what am I looking for19:45
superm1well look for anything about your chipset19:45
superm1and not able to load19:45
superm1or you need to define a tuner number19:45
MythbuntuGuest44funny thing is it says it input imps/2 logitech wireless mouse, but it doesn't work19:45
MythbuntuGuest44okay anyway19:46
MythbuntuGuest44it say pci: setting latency timer of device 0000:00:05 to 6419:48
superm1that's fine19:50
superm1well i can't stick around for now to help out much more.  if no one else is able to help right now, please file a post on the forums and attach all of the output of dmesg into the post under [code] blocks19:51
MythbuntuGuest44I am adding my monitor so that I can see things easier.  thanks for helping.  Just going to take a minute19:51
superm1the forums are rather active19:51
MythbuntuGuest44how can I copy all the output to post easily?19:52
superm1two ways19:52
superm1either19:52
superm1dmesg > out.txt19:52
superm1will save it to a file19:52
superm1or just highlight it all in that terminal19:52
superm1and then hit edit copy19:52
superm1and edit paste19:52
MythbuntuGuest44I see now thanks!  I am pretty stupid with linux yet.  It is too bad I do know windows, but Gate has too much money!!19:54

=== scarter_ is now known as spence
UsersfgfsdvIpve got a question about component out on myth running a geforce 7600 GS23:03
UsersfgfsdvI'd like to run it through my reciever23:11
Usersfgfsdvand switch to myth like I would for DVD, VCR, etc23:11
Usersfgfsdvbut when I turn myth on, the only way the nvidia can send component video out is if it is directly connected to the TV without the intermediary receiver23:13
Usersfgfsdvany way to make the component out always on and sending a specific signal (1080p or 1080i in my case)23:13
