[00:52] help! I just installed the ubuntu-desktop...and none of my open windows have borders or title bars (and I can't drag them off the upper left corner where they open...) [00:53] (other than that--i'm enjoying mythtv quite a bit!) [00:53] sounds like a compiz issue [00:54] i don't have compiz running--do i? [00:54] or is compiz a default part of gutsy ubuntu...? [00:54] (didn't used to be) [00:55] yes, it's default on supposedly supported hardware [00:55] disable it with: system/preferences/appearance/visual effects -> none [00:55] any idea how to drag this irc window out of the upper-left of the screen--so i can get at the system menu?! (LOL) [00:58] brb [00:59] "None" is already selected... :-O [01:00] metacity being weird? how odd [01:01] yeah..apparently... [01:01] any ideas? [01:01] and my cpu is a solid 99% [01:01] (don't know if that's related or not) [01:02] williammanda.. [01:02] checked that section [01:02] still no go [01:02] http://pastebin.com/mbe2b3f2 [01:02] thats my config file === Varka_ is now known as Varka [02:09] is there an easy way to change all the window colors from that "mythbuntu" blue-grey? [02:09] (i'm talking about in xfce when you quit the frontend) [02:51] hi guys.. I have a question: I have a lot of DVDs with mpeg4/avi files. How can I play them in mythtv? I tried to google this issue, but did not find reasonable answer. [02:53] copy the file to your mythvideo dir [02:54] is it the only one solution? [02:55] is it possible to insert disk, select the file and play it? [02:56] I don't think so, through the frontend anyway [02:57] write a script to play the files and bind it to a remote button with lirc :) [02:58] :-( [02:59] am I the only one who has such needs? ;-) [03:00] yeah you weirdo, why do you have a bunch of avi's on dvds? [03:00] buy a bigger hard drive :p [03:00] hehe.. :-) [03:01] hmm.. [03:01] I just saved interesting movies on DVDs to free some space.. [03:01] ok.. I got it.. [03:02] scripting an lirc button isn't as hard as it sounds [03:02] I have quite a few set up, I have one button music, one button music videos, one button howard stern, and a sleeptimer with osd and badass sound :) [03:03] then there is another issue: If I downloaded video file to mythvideo folder, will this file be seen by default, or I should rescan this folder? [03:04] because, my wife will shoot me out, if she will need to rescan the folder all the time, when she downloads new movie :-) [03:09] JThundley: is it possible to do so? [03:10] you don't have to rescan [03:48] hello [03:49] does anyone know of a site with a feature-by-feature comparison of Knopmyth, Mythbuntu, and Mythdora? [03:54] LinuxKeitaro, well wouldn't the real features be of mythtv? [03:54] good point, but I think like plugins or codecs it comes with or something like that [03:54] if they're all the same, then why have more than one? ;) [03:55] some are easier than others, obviously they are built on different flavors [03:58] yup === Sphagnum is now known as Tari|zzz [05:53] hey guys, anyone awake? [06:12] o, wow, there is a mythbuntu channel, awesome [06:13] I have a question for you guys. I just installed Ubuntu server and then mythbuntu followed by mythtv...howver, when I run dpkg-reconfigure mythtv-database, I get an error saying my username and password are wrong...what is the default? [06:15] I think mine was randomly generated [06:15] if you need to reconfigure it, I bet you could just delete the database and/or mysql conf files [06:18] K4k [06:18] run mysql -p [06:18] sry, sudo mysql -p [06:25] I have what it says in /etc/mythtv/mysql.txt, but those credentials do not work [06:27] ewww schedulesdirect is too much money [06:28] damn, no more listings form e [06:29] $20 per year is too much? [06:30] RabidLockerGnome, [06:31] yes, 20$/year is more than i can afford right now hehe [06:31] K4k, idk im just setting this up for the first time tonight [06:32] ok, now what [06:32] it says mysql> [06:33] now you can do a 'drop user mythtv;' [06:34] then run: grant all on accounts.* to mythtv@localhost identified by 'YourMagicalPassword'; [06:34] RabidLockerGnome, [06:36] ? [06:36] sry [06:36] you have to create the database first [06:36] so: create database mythdatabasename; [06:37] then run: grant all on mythdatabasename.* to mythtv@localhost identified by 'YourMagicalPassword'; [06:41] hmm is there a way to set the theme thru the console? [06:41] i think changing to "OpenGL" screwed me over [06:51] I know not the first thing about databases [06:57] when I do that, and do identify by 'passwordhere': it doesn't give error, but ; does [07:19] does anyone know what nvidia drivers i should use for a 5200 card, ve fiddled with settings on in xorg.conf , myth for nearly a day now, and i just cant work out what is causing the tearing on my playback.. i am considering using older drivers as my setup worked flawlessly on muthdora til i had to replace my motherboard [07:29] ugggggg cannot connect to master backend server === K4k_ is now known as k4k [08:01] crappp just getting a blue screen in watch-tv mode [08:53] can anyone help me the time is 1 hour of in mythweb. My regional settings are correct how can i fix this [08:57] mmm, just a suggestion but is your bios clock right? [09:00] yeah it keep on resetting itself even after i have set it and saved changes. Does this mean the Battery has to be replaced [09:01] yeah id say thats it... has happened me before [09:02] can you buy new ones [09:03] yup... m not completely sure of the name of them tho, i lifted one from an old board i had lying around [09:04] ok thanks for the advise === fxr is now known as fxr69 === Tari|zzz is now known as Tari|skul [16:55] I cannot figure out why my channel change script is not working. I have used it successfully on knoppmyth. I have put the file into /usr/local/bin. I did a chmod +x to execute it. Then chmod 755 to set permission. Then I did chmod to 777 /dev/ttyS0. If i try to run by doing a sony.pl 202 . It timesout [17:12] anyone using the iMON PAD here? I wonder how I can get the PAD to work with Mythbuntu 7.10 [17:14] in the knoppmyth forums i think they had someone getting the imon working with instructions. since it is debian based it should work [17:15] I know of how to compile it and getting it working sure [17:15] but it is already included in mythbuntu in some way [17:16] what are you asking if the remote setup will work with it? [17:16] I dont know if thats the case I guess you want to see if the lirc files are already thier [17:17] they are all precomiled as far as I can see, cant find the sources to patch [17:28] hi folks. silly question. if I install mythbuntu I'm not limited to using mythtv 0.20.2 am I? my backend is 0.20-fixes (from before 0.20.2) and I'll need to compile an older one until I can be absolutely sure my new FE can replace the current one (too hard to rebuild the existing frontend for 0.20.2 anyway) [17:31] justinh, although I haven't tried it, I dont believe that they use different protocol versions, so you should be ok [17:35] how do I display the channel icon in OSD? it only appears on my EPG right now [17:35] cant find the setting [17:37] I think they do use different database schemas though and I don't want to break anything. I have backups but it's a PITA to have to roll a database back for something silly [17:38] I'll download it & give it a go - apt-get build-dep mythtv mythplugins should just work I think [17:43] justinh: the wonders of packagaes means you can probably just pull an old deb from previous ubuntu.. :) [17:43] [17:44] I don't want to do that [17:44] I want to build it myself [17:44] is it up to the OSD to display the channel icons? [17:44] fair nuff [17:44] or is it a general setting? [17:44] sebrock: Are the icons accessible from the frontend? [17:45] Daviey, yes, they show in program guide [17:45] ie mounted in the same location they exist on the backend via NFS [17:45] oh, i see what you mean.. [17:45] hmm.. if the OSD supports icons then they should 'just work' [17:45] justinh: any ideas ^ [17:46] which OSD do you use that supports this? [17:46] just to check if there is something wrong [17:46] the OSD has to support it [17:46] all mine do [17:46] huh [17:47] all my OSD themes support it [17:47] gayhem-osd, blootube-osd, glass-wide [17:48] have to check this [17:49] I just have default themes now I guess [17:50] * tgm4883 wonders if gayhem-osd has pictures of the village people on it [17:53] Y M C A! [17:56] well, I figure this system has nothing to lose, since I've already worked out the hard parts [17:57] * justinh considers buying www.onlyslightlybetterthanthecoremythtvthemes.co.uk [18:09] anyone using Mythbuntu? [18:09] or the imon pad? [18:09] you ask if anybody is using mythbuntu, in #ubuntu-mythtv? lol [18:10] could use ubuntu and mythtv packages aswell [18:10] anyway, I checked now. Even when using themes that support icons this doesnt show here [18:10] just the channel number and name [18:11] weird! [18:11] you bet [18:12] ouch! nul points guys. no mouse, no install?! wth is all that about? [18:17] installer crashed. ah well. so long & thanks for all the fish [18:29] anyone know how to post logs of a failed ubuntu install? [18:30] imean mythbuntu install [21:33] anyone here?

[22:19] hi [22:19] i have a kworld atsc 110 with remote what option do i need for the remote to work using mythbuntu? [22:20] it plugs into the card [22:54] need help [22:54] send help [22:54] bluntz: What is the problem? [22:54] sound [22:55] from pinnacle [22:55] works with patchcord [22:56] how to access it without [22:56] ? [22:57] bluntz: By patchcord, you mean cable running from the pinnacle card to your sound card? [22:57] yes [22:57] found this [22:57] sox -t ossdsp -r 32000 -b -c 2 /dev/dsp1 -t ossdsp /dev/dsp0 [22:57] somewher [22:57] bluntz: Check on the ALSA wiki if this card is supported. Also try cat /proc/asound/cards to see if it shows up there. [22:58] pinnacle is video capture card [22:58] and dont see it in alsamixer [22:59] bluntz: But the card has a possible sound chipset on the board which ALSA may pick up. [22:59] 0 [V8235 ]: VIA8233 - VIA 8235 [22:59] VIA 8235 with ALC650F at 0xb000, irq 20 [23:00] bluntz: That is all /cat /proc/asound/cards shows? [23:01] yes [23:01] Then you are stuck using the passthrough to get sound. [23:02] well it worked under another distro in the past [23:02] think maybe fedora 3 [23:03] kernel 2.6.8 prolly [23:03] bluntz: OK then what does lspci show for that card? Use this as the basis to interrogate google. [23:04] 00:05.1 Multimedia controller: Brooktree Corporation Bt878 Audio Capture (rev 11) [23:04] Subsystem: Pinnacle Systems Inc.

[23:21] o well [23:21] guess Ill use mythdora,at least it works! [23:21] bluntz you would have to tell alsa to turn on the input mixer [23:22] Then in the mythtv setup tell it to use that mixer channel [23:59] is it possible to apply patches to the lirc in mythbuntu??
