[00:52] <wilberfan> 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] <wilberfan> (other than that--i'm enjoying mythtv quite a bit!)
[00:53] <directhex> sounds like a compiz issue
[00:54] <wilberfan> i don't have compiz running--do i?
[00:54] <wilberfan> or is compiz a default part of gutsy ubuntu...?
[00:54] <wilberfan> (didn't used to be)
[00:55] <directhex> yes, it's default on supposedly supported hardware
[00:55] <directhex> disable it with: system/preferences/appearance/visual effects -> none
[00:55] <wilberfan> 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] <wilberfan> brb
[00:59] <wilberfan> "None" is already selected...  :-O
[01:00] <directhex> metacity being weird? how odd
[01:01] <wilberfan> yeah..apparently...
[01:01] <wilberfan> any ideas?
[01:01] <wilberfan> and my cpu is a solid 99%
[01:01] <wilberfan> (don't know if that's related or not)
[01:02] <sxealex> williammanda..
[01:02] <sxealex> checked that section
[01:02] <sxealex> still no go
[01:02] <sxealex> http://pastebin.com/mbe2b3f2
[01:02] <sxealex> thats my config file
[02:09] <wilberfan> is there an easy way to change all the window colors from that "mythbuntu" blue-grey?
[02:09] <wilberfan> (i'm talking about in xfce when you quit the frontend)
[02:51] <lelik> 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] <JThundley> copy the file to your mythvideo dir
[02:54] <lelik> is it the only one solution?
[02:55] <lelik> is it possible to insert disk, select the file and play it?
[02:56] <JThundley> I don't think so, through the frontend anyway
[02:57] <JThundley> write a script to play the files and bind it to a remote button with lirc :)
[02:58] <lelik> :-(
[02:59] <lelik> am I the only one who has such needs? ;-)
[03:00] <JThundley> yeah you weirdo, why do you have a bunch of avi's on dvds?
[03:00] <JThundley> buy a bigger hard drive :p
[03:00] <lelik> hehe.. :-)
[03:01] <lelik> hmm..
[03:01] <lelik> I just saved interesting movies on DVDs to free some space..
[03:01] <lelik> ok.. I got it..
[03:02] <JThundley> scripting an lirc button isn't as hard as it sounds
[03:02] <JThundley> 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] <lelik> 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] <lelik> 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] <lelik> JThundley: is it possible to do so?
[03:10] <JThundley> you don't have to rescan
[03:48] <LinuxKeitaro> hello
[03:49] <LinuxKeitaro> does anyone know of a site with a feature-by-feature comparison of Knopmyth, Mythbuntu, and Mythdora?
[03:54] <tgm4883_laptop> LinuxKeitaro, well wouldn't the real features be of mythtv?
[03:54] <LinuxKeitaro> good point, but I think like plugins or codecs it comes with or something like that
[03:54] <LinuxKeitaro> if they're all the same, then why have more than one? ;)
[03:55] <tgm4883_laptop> some are easier than others, obviously they are built on different flavors
[03:58] <LinuxKeitaro> yup
[05:53] <RabidLockerGnome> hey guys, anyone awake?
[06:12] <K4k> o, wow, there is a mythbuntu channel, awesome
[06:13] <K4k> 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] <JThundley> I think mine was randomly generated
[06:15] <JThundley> if you need to reconfigure it, I bet you could just delete the database and/or mysql conf files
[06:18] <RabidLockerGnome> K4k
[06:18] <RabidLockerGnome> run mysql -p
[06:18] <RabidLockerGnome> sry, sudo mysql -p
[06:25] <K4k> I have what it says in /etc/mythtv/mysql.txt, but those credentials do not work
[06:27] <RabidLockerGnome> ewww schedulesdirect is too much money
[06:28] <RabidLockerGnome> damn, no more listings form e
[06:29] <JThundley> $20 per year is too much?
[06:30] <K4k> RabidLockerGnome,
[06:31] <RabidLockerGnome> yes, 20$/year is more than i can afford right now hehe
[06:31] <RabidLockerGnome> K4k, idk im just setting this up for the first time tonight
[06:32] <K4k> ok, now what
[06:32] <K4k> it says mysql>
[06:33] <RabidLockerGnome> now you can do a 'drop user mythtv;'
[06:34] <RabidLockerGnome> then run: grant all on accounts.* to mythtv@localhost identified by 'YourMagicalPassword';
[06:34] <K4k> RabidLockerGnome,
[06:36] <RabidLockerGnome> ?
[06:36] <RabidLockerGnome> sry
[06:36] <RabidLockerGnome> you have to create the database first
[06:36] <RabidLockerGnome> so: create database mythdatabasename;
[06:37] <RabidLockerGnome> then run: grant all on mythdatabasename.* to mythtv@localhost identified by 'YourMagicalPassword';
[06:41] <RabidLockerGnome> hmm is there a way to set the theme thru the console?
[06:41] <RabidLockerGnome> i think changing to "OpenGL" screwed me over
[06:51] <K4k> I know not the first thing about databases
[06:57] <K4k> when I do that, and do identify by 'passwordhere': it doesn't give error, but ; does
[07:19] <fxr> 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] <RabidLockerGnome> ugggggg cannot connect to master backend server
[08:01] <RabidLockerGnome> crappp just getting a blue screen in watch-tv mode
[08:53] <pretender> can anyone help me the time is 1 hour of in mythweb.  My regional settings are correct how can i fix this
[08:57] <fxr> mmm, just a suggestion but is your bios clock right?
[09:00] <pretender> 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] <fxr> yeah id say thats it... has happened me before
[09:02] <pretender> can you buy new ones
[09:03] <fxr> yup... m not completely sure of the name of them tho, i lifted one from an old board i had lying around
[09:04] <pretender> ok thanks for the advise
[16:55] <alexvd> 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] <sebrock> anyone using the iMON PAD here? I wonder how I can get the PAD to work with Mythbuntu 7.10
[17:14] <alexvd> 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] <sebrock> I know of how to compile it and getting it working sure
[17:15] <sebrock> but it is already included in mythbuntu in some way
[17:16] <alexvd> what are you asking if the remote setup will work with it?
[17:16] <alexvd> I dont know if thats the case I guess you want to see if the lirc files are already thier
[17:17] <sebrock> they are all precomiled as far as I can see, cant find the sources to patch
[17:28] <justinh> 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] <tgm4883> justinh, although I haven't tried it, I dont believe that they use different protocol versions, so you should be ok
[17:35] <sebrock> how do I display the channel icon in OSD? it only appears on my EPG right now
[17:35] <sebrock> cant find the setting
[17:37] <justinh> 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] <justinh> I'll download it & give it a go - apt-get build-dep mythtv mythplugins should just work I think
[17:43] <Daviey> justinh: the wonders of packagaes means you can probably just pull an old deb from previous ubuntu.. :)
[17:43] <Daviey> </not guranteed + bad advice>
[17:44] <justinh> I don't want to do that
[17:44] <justinh> I want to build it myself
[17:44] <sebrock> is it up to the OSD to display the channel icons?
[17:44] <Daviey> fair nuff
[17:44] <sebrock> or is it a general setting?
[17:44] <Daviey> sebrock: Are the icons accessible from the frontend?
[17:45] <sebrock> Daviey, yes, they show in program guide
[17:45] <Daviey> ie mounted in the same location they exist on the backend via NFS
[17:45] <Daviey> oh, i see what you mean..
[17:45] <Daviey> hmm.. if the OSD supports icons then they should 'just work'
[17:45] <Daviey> justinh: any ideas ^
[17:46] <sebrock> which OSD do you use that supports this?
[17:46] <sebrock> just to check if there is something wrong
[17:46] <justinh> the OSD has to support it
[17:46] <justinh> all mine do
[17:46] <sebrock> huh
[17:47] <justinh> all my OSD themes support it
[17:47] <justinh> gayhem-osd, blootube-osd, glass-wide
[17:48] <sebrock> have to check this
[17:49] <sebrock> 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] <directhex> Y M C A!
[17:56] <justinh> 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] <sebrock> anyone using Mythbuntu?
[18:09] <sebrock> or the imon pad?
[18:09] <justinh> you ask if anybody is using mythbuntu, in #ubuntu-mythtv?  lol
[18:10] <sebrock> could use ubuntu and mythtv packages aswell
[18:10] <sebrock> anyway, I checked now. Even when using themes that support icons this doesnt show here
[18:10] <sebrock> just the channel number and name
[18:11] <justinh> weird!
[18:11] <sebrock> you bet
[18:12] <justinh> ouch!  nul points guys.  no mouse, no install?!  wth is all that about?
[18:17] <justinh> installer crashed.  ah well.  so long & thanks for all the fish

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

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