[00:02] <foxbuntu> jpdrawneek, I have not heard any issues with this...however doesn't mean it doesn't exsist...I would suggest checking out our fourms or even posting in there
[00:03] <jpdrawneek> k
[00:03] <jpdrawneek> just checking to see if it was a know problem
[00:05] <feroxide> k 'nite
[00:05] <wilberfan> foxbuntu: the '-generator command seems to have done the trick!  :D
[00:06] <wilberfan> thanks for your help...
[00:07] <josiahw> anybody here know about loading mythtv frontend onto a appletv or a ps3?
[00:08] <sirbob> how can I set up a remote using an ir receiver from irblaster.info and a hauppage remote
[00:08] <sirbob> I have other remotes, if the hauppage one doesn't work like this
[00:09] <foxbuntu> josiahw, appleTV and PS3 both have projects...google for them
[00:10] <foxbuntu> sirbob, check out the docs for the irblaster and mythbuntu-lirc-generator will take care of the hap. remote
[00:11] <sirbob> Just to clarify, I am not using the ir reciever on the hauppage card,
[00:11] <sirbob> what is mythbuntu-lirc-generator?
[00:11] <sirbob> just run that at a command line?
[00:14] <mindframe-> what are some good options to use with vlc when playing movies in myth?
[00:29] <foxbuntu> mindframe pull up the MythVideo Wiki...they are posted there
[00:34] <mindframe-> got it
[00:34] <mindframe-> now next problem: all of my video files come up scrambled
[00:36] <foxbuntu> mindframe, be more specific
[00:38] <mindframe-> any video file that i tell myth to play is 'scrambled'... blank green screen when vlc is full-screen.  i can play this video files fine from the command line.
[00:39] <mindframe-> nvidia issue
[00:39] <foxbuntu> so when you play them outside of myth with vlc they work?
[00:39] <mindframe-> yes
[00:39] <mindframe-> its an issue with the latest nvidia drivers
[00:39] <foxbuntu> are you using QT or OpenGL?
[00:39] <foxbuntu> mindframe where did you find that
[00:39] <mindframe-> QT
[00:39] <mindframe-> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3830263
[00:40] <foxbuntu> mindframe, switch to OpenGL
[00:40] <mindframe-> some guy in #mythtv-users
[00:40] <mindframe-> okay
[00:41] <mindframe-> same issue
[00:41] <foxbuntu> mindframe the driver mentioned there seems to be an old one
[00:41] <foxbuntu> what card are you using?
[00:42] <mindframe-> onboard 7050pv
[00:42] <mindframe-> gonna try out this beta driver
[00:43] <foxbuntu> 100.23?
[00:44] <mindframe-> 169.04
[00:45] <mindframe-> i currently have 114.19 installed
[00:46] <foxbuntu> ah sorry..I was thinking for my card
[00:46] <foxbuntu> differnt package
[00:48] <sirbob> foxbuntu: I did mythbuntu-lirc-generator, but I am not sure what it did?
[00:49] <sirbob> or where to go from there
[00:50] <foxbuntu> sirbob, actually, you need to use it from Mytbuntu-Control-Centre, then you can select your remote and it will configure it for you
[00:50] <foxbuntu> sudo mythbuntu-control-centre
[00:50] <mindframe-> foxbuntu, is there any way to speed up the menu fade time in opengl mode?  also what are the advantages to using opengl?
[00:51] <foxbuntu> opengl with nvidia usally is faster
[00:52] <foxbuntu> is the fade super slow? or just different from QT?"
[00:54] <mindframe-> it's slow enough to be annoying
[00:55] <mindframe-> i'd rather have the instant switch that QT does
[00:56] <directhex> it's hard-coded. gl means fade
[00:57] <sirbob> foxbuntu: It doesn't seem to be working, is there any way I can view a raw input of what lirc is getting?
[01:10] <sirbob> foxbuntu: It doesn't seem to be working, is there any way I can view a raw input of what lirc is getting?
[01:11] <foxbuntu> sirbob, after you setup the remote you should reboot your machine
[01:17] <sirbob> foxbuntu: still doesn't seem to do anything, it should be able to navigate the mythtv menus, right?
[01:18] <foxbuntu> sirbob, yes...do you have your irreceiver setup for the remote?
[01:21] <sirbob> foxbuntu: how do you do that? I can't find any docs on the irblaster.info site
[01:21] <foxbuntu> sirbob, usually those remotes have their own
[01:21] <foxbuntu> and its usb
[01:23] <sirbob> foxbuntu: I know, this remote uses one in the tv card i think, but I am using the card in a backend and the remote for a frontend
[01:23] <sirbob> foxbuntu: how can I setup a generic remote (I have ones besides the hauppage) with this reciever?
[01:23] <sirbob> in mythbuntu
[01:24] <foxbuntu> sirbob, I am not sure, I would suggest to surf the forums and google
[01:24] <foxbuntu> sorry, I have to go
[01:53] <Jonathon> Has anyone found problems with installing two DTV1000T tuner cards under Ubuntu?
[02:01] <MythbuntuGuest52> Hi All, I'm having some trouble enable nfs sharing from the control centre, when I apply the settings, its not actually installing the service
[02:58] <tgm4883_laptop> anyone use vlc or xine for their dvd playback?
[03:03] <yotux> does mythbuntu have ltsp in it?
[03:31] <trimeta> I have a problem where periodically the backend will fail, or something; it's still running, but no longer is receiving input from the RCA cables.
[03:31] <trimeta> When this happens and I try to watch TV from the frontend, the screen goes black for a bit (as it normally does when selecting Watch TV), but then returns to the menu.
[03:31] <trimeta> Any ideas what could be happening?
[04:10] <trimeta> Anyone here?
[04:13] <JThundley> yeah, but you have to idle for longer
[04:13] <JThundley> the weekends are especially slow
[04:13] <trimeta> Ah, OK.
[04:24] <trimeta> I don't suppose you'd have any insight into why this serial cable I'm taking apart (a DB-9) lacks a lead to pin 3, which happens to be on of the three most important pins in the whole spec? (Pin 5 is ground, pin 2 is receive, and pin 3 is transmit.)
[04:26] <JThundley> way above me, I'm afraid
[04:27] <trimeta> I'm trying the whole "make your own cable to control the STB," but it isn't working for the aforementioned reason. Oh well.
[08:26] <solarbaby> God Bless MythBuntu
[08:26] <trimeta> Howso?
[08:26] <solarbaby> not in a bad way silly
[08:27] <trimeta> I didn't mean to imply that.
[08:27] <solarbaby> I've been away for a week, and needed something to say
[08:27] <trimeta> Ah.
[08:27] <trimeta> I'm new here, and am mainly sticking around in the hopes that someone can explain why I lose TV signal after a few hours.
[08:28] <trimeta> If I reboot, it works again.
[08:28] <solarbaby> Im not a developer..  but I'd say check your logs
[08:29] <solarbaby> once you've found something fishy, post it on the bulletin board for the developers to look over..  they'll tell you whats up
[08:29] <trimeta> I'll take a look.
[08:30] <solarbaby> im pretty sure the answer is in there somewhere
[08:31] <trimeta> Ah, here we go:
[08:31] <trimeta> 2007-12-01 21:34:55.038 TVRec(1): Changing from WatchingLiveTV to RecordingOnly
[08:31] <trimeta> 2007-12-01 21:36:33.799 MPEGRec(/dev/video0) Error: select timeout - ivtv driver has stopped responding
[08:31] <trimeta> I'll see what the internet says about that.
[08:31] <solarbaby> right on
[08:33] <trimeta> Hmm...some stuff from 2006...
[08:34] <trimeta> ...which claims this was fixed a year and a half ago. Suspicious.
[08:37] <trimeta> I guess I'll just hang out here a bit and see if a dev comes on; maybe they have insight into whether this issue has really been resolved. Do you know when they frequent this room?
[09:06] <hugolp> anyone here is used to Gmyth?
[09:33] <solarbaby> trimeta i see them hanging about close to 10 hours from now
[09:33] <trimeta> Sunday afternoon, that is?
[09:33] <solarbaby> some..  superm1 is my favorite although all of them are great..  he's here on weekdays for sure
[14:06] <MythbuntuGuest52> hi there. is there somebody who can help with the configuration of my hauppauge remote?
[14:07] <MythbuntuGuest52> i've got a nova-t. and i can't get it to work properly (anymore).
[15:07] <Magik2> I'm running into an odd boot problem during install.  Any takers?
[15:45] <yotux> I get an irsend error when I try to send a poweroff signal
[18:18] <johnd> i am having some trouble trying to compile firewire_tester.c and was hoping someone could help me out? I am using mythbuntu 7.10 and had to install gcc first but it still wont compile
[18:36] <dhouse> where should i look for problems when just installing mythbuntu and getting a black screen on my tv?
[18:36] <dhouse> nothing at all on my monitor
[18:58] <tgm4883> johnd, ping
[19:41] <rushfan> How do you change grub config with mythbuntu?
[20:30] <Mersault> on what days are the weekly svn builds made?
[20:31] <superm1> today
[20:31] <Mersault> oh, sweet
[20:32] <Mersault> also, copy/pasted from the weekly build site: This repository will be maintained for the latest Ubuntu release only (At the time, this is Ubuntu 7.10, gutsy Fawn)
[20:32] <superm1> ha
[20:32] <superm1> tgm4883, you want to fix that?
[20:32] <tgm4883> sure
[20:32] <tgm4883> i'll make it Feisty Gibbon, hows that ;)
[20:33] <Mersault> just fix the capitalization of what's there already
[20:33] <Mersault> :
[20:33] <superm1> argh it looks like that weekly build for -fixes is going to be in trouble
[20:33] <Mersault> howso?
[20:33] <superm1> because the branch has changed significantly
[20:33] <Mersault> I'm really more concerned with the svn builds
[20:33] <superm1> i'll try it, but i suspect a FTBFS on it
[20:33] <superm1> the trunk one should be fine
[20:34] <Mersault> FTBFS?
[20:34] <superm1> fail to build from source
[20:38] <superm1> Mersault, they're pushing right now, so i suspect that they will be built and on the mirrors by tomorrow morning
[20:41] <Mersault> great
[20:42] <Mersault> say, I have some niggling little problems with my install. How do I turn off the accelerating scrolling in mythmusic?
[20:42] <superm1> beats me
[20:42] <Mersault> and also, on a mythbuntu install, what would I change in order to pass startup options to mythfrontend?
[20:42] <superm1> don't use it at all
[20:43] <Mersault> in /etc/mythtv/session-settings?
[20:43] <superm1> yeah
[20:44] <Mersault> hmm.. weird. I put -d in there, and it still tries to do the auto-search thing...
[21:00] <fxr> hi, are the linux headers on the mythbuntu cd?
[21:01] <superm1> fxr, they are avail on the repos
[21:02] <fxr> yeah, but i need them to build my wireless drivers.
[21:02] <fxr> so its a copy to cd jobbie? defs not on the build cd?
[21:13] <superm1> fxr, no they're not on the cd
[21:13] <superm1> neither is gcc/build env and such
[21:14] <superm1> fxr, what wireless drivers do you need that aren't available directly?
[21:15] <fxr> its a belkin wireless driver rt73, i cant get them working here by fiddlin, was gonna just use a procedure i know that works for edgy
[21:17] <superm1> fxr, o i c
[21:17] <superm1> fxr, well you can install without a network connection
[21:17] <superm1> and then add things in later
[21:17] <superm1> for the wireless and such
[21:18] <superm1> that way you can open up synaptic, mark the debs you need, make a download list, and download them from another computer
[21:18] <superm1> and bring them in on a flash drive or something similar
[21:19] <fxr> yeah.. ok.. aye ll just make my list and grab them from the repo's.. thanks.. just looking for a shortcut as ever ;p
[21:20] <superm1> the download list in synaptic is actually pretty nice if you've never used it :)
[21:23] <fxr> ok.. cool.. ll have a look at that.. thanks again
[22:43] <MadHatter349> hey

[22:46] <MadHatter349> i need some help for a sports journalism class i want to compare how sports games are anounced difrently according to their region so currenlty im recording the bears vs gianst game in ny and i want to figure out how i can show its annoinced difrently in chicago
[22:49] <JThundley> DAAAA BEARS
[22:50] <MadHatter349> ya
[22:50] <MadHatter349> u hae an idea at what i should do
[22:51] <JThundley> no, I hate sports
[22:51] <JThundley> pro sports anyway
[22:52] <MadHatter349> k i dont really wtahc sports i just need ot do this for journalism class lol
[22:56] <MadHatter349> if anybody was from chicago here it would really help lol
[23:03] <fxr> is there any known bugs creating directory symbolic links with mythbuntu?
[23:03] <fxr> 'sudo ln -s /usr/src/linux-headers-`uname -r` /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build'
[23:03] <fxr> it just doesnt work and when i got to get properties from the link icon, it freaks out and dissappears -s
[23:22] <superm1_> fxr, that's pretty odd
[23:22] <superm1_> there is nothing special done to any of the basic utils in mythbuntu
[23:22] <superm1_> fxr, did you make sure you had the headers installed already?
[23:23] <tgm4883> fxr are you using the single quote key or the tilde key (although it's not tilde is the other one)
[23:27] <fxr> yeah installed the headers.. i used the full path to rule out anything with the uname -r
[23:27] <fxr> i think there might be something wrong with the make file
[23:32] <superm1_> fxr, you are still using the edgy howto for your card though?
[23:32] <superm1_> have you checked for a gutsy on
[23:32] <superm1_> one
[23:32] <superm1_> taht is more updated
[23:33] <fxr> yeah had a look for that, the gutsy how to , refers back to the edgy one..
[23:33] <fxr> i think its got something to do with the headers src
[23:33] <fxr> with the naming convention
[23:33] <fxr> i mean
[23:34] <fxr> uname -r = 2.6.22-14-generic .. whereas linux headers is kept in /usr/src/2.6.22-14
[23:35] <fxr> its no biggy if i rename that directory right?
[23:46] <superm1_> well i'd symlink
[23:46] <superm1_> rather than rename
[23:46] <superm1_> if i were you
