[01:23] <MythbuntuGuest59> anyone have any luck fixing frontends with choppy video?
[01:35] <john__> i live in the us my lower channels from 2 to 13 come in fine the rest of the channels from 14 to 80 are all static. I'm using a hauppauge pvr 150
[01:44] <john__> in the mythbuntu manual it talks about downloading and installing firmware for the pvr 150 is this still necc with the latest version of mythbuntu?
[01:45] <rhpot1991> maybe when you setup your channels you didn't pick the right option, there is one that lists something along the lines of cable/broadcast/antenna
[01:46] <john__> i have it set to cable
[01:53] <Daviey> john__: type, dmesg | grep dvb THEN dmesg | grep DVB
[01:54] <Daviey> It will tell you if it could load the firmware
[02:13] <john__> ok
[02:33] <Aquahallic> evenin' folks
[02:33] <impotence> lo
[02:34] <impotence> has anyone seen any quad channel DVB-T (UK Freeview) PCI cards by any chance?
[02:38] <Aquahallic> I have a lirc config file for my remote already from a previous install of myth... I'm using the homebrew serial receiver... is there a remote in the dropdown in the control center that will setup a remote (don't care which I can put my own config files in) and setup for the homebrew serial receiver???
[04:31] <john__> Daviey i did both of those commands and nothing shows up
[04:31] <john__> i guess that would explain why the remote for the pvr 150 doesn't work now also
[04:33] <john__> the way i read the manual i only need to download the firmware if i want the remote to control another device
[04:57] <Iolaus> Hey laga, thanks for committing a fix for the mythlib-perl issue in trunk!
[07:10] <Aquahallic> evenin' folks
[07:10] <Aquahallic> 'er... mornin'...:)
[07:51] <dwf_starband> im getting a 401 unauthorized error when running mythfilldatabase
[07:51] <dwf_starband> is something screwed up with mysql?
[10:54] <frink__> Hello - happy new year all!
[14:12] <JGJones> Greetings everyone.
[14:12] <JGJones> I have the Happauge Nova 500T (dual digital tuner card) in my mythtv backend server.
[14:13] <JGJones> It works, I don't have a problem with that. However my problem with the card lies in signal strength - on a Freeview box (crappy £30 model) - I get around 90% signal strength
[14:14] <JGJones> But on mythTV backend it's closer to 60% or so and so I cannot get some digital "blocks" (In UK I believe there's 6 of them?)
[14:14] <JGJones> meaning I cannot get those blocks that contain channels such as ITV and so on.
[14:15] <JGJones> I've enabled the onboard booster in module options - but is it just the card that's a problem? Or something else?
[14:51] <MythbuntuGuest68> hi
[14:52] <MythbuntuGuest68> i was wondering if anyone online has managed to get the Hauppauge Nova-T remote control working correctly
[15:11] <JGJones> Hauppauge Nova-T remote does work now
[15:11] <JGJones> Let me get the URL...
[15:12] <JGJones> http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Hauppauge_WinTV_Nova-T_PCI#The_Nova-t_Remote_Control - there ya go (it worked for me on the backend while testing but my laptop doesn't have a IRC port that Ubuntu support so I don't use it)
[15:38] <Iolaus> you around laga?
[15:41] <Aquahallic> Mornin' folks
[15:44] <Aquahallic> I did a new setup of Mythbuntu 7.10... my video card is a Nvidia GeForce 4 MX440... so I need the legacy drivers... when I go into the Mythbuntu Control Center/Proprietary Drivers.... it doesn't let me pick the legacy drivers....:(
[15:44] <Aquahallic> is there any way to set this to install legacy drivers???
[15:45] <Dr_willis> You could manually apt-get install the gla-legacy pacakge i think
[15:45] <pdragon> can try using apt-get to pick the legacy driver package
[15:45] <Dr_willis> !find legacy
[15:45] <ubotu> Found: edubuntu-addon-legacy, kmilo-legacy, legacyhuman-theme, xkb-data-legacy, nvidia-glx-legacy (and 2 others)
[15:45] <pdragon> bah... beat me to it
[15:45] <Dr_willis> :)
[15:46] <Dr_willis> sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-legacy
[15:47] <Aquahallic> ty.. I'll try that...:)
[15:49] <Aquahallic> that will install everything?
[15:49] <Aquahallic> legacy kernel source, driver and glx???
[15:55] <JGJones> yes it will
[15:55] <Dr_willis> it should
[15:55] <Dr_willis> !nvidia
[15:55] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[16:15] <Aquahallic> hmmm
[16:15] <JGJones> http://www.ukfree.tv/txdetail.php?a=IJ287750 - bah this probably explains why my MythTV backend cannot pick up some mux's (even though it picks up perfectly clear on a cheap digital set top box for all channels)
[16:15] <Aquahallic> looks like glx didn't buld up correctly
[16:15] <Aquahallic> Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0"
[16:15] <Aquahallic> that's in my frontend log
[16:19] <Dr_willis> did you restart the X server after installing the nvidia driver?
[16:20] <Dr_willis> is the nvidia driver actually being used.. Check the xorg.conf file. for a   Driver "nvidia"  line
[16:20] <JGJones> I think you might need to reboot for kernal headers?
[16:23] <Aquahallic> yes.. .and yes
[16:23] <Aquahallic> xorg is trying to load glx...
[16:54] <Aquahallic> anyone else have experience with a GeForce MX 440 in Mythbuntu???
[16:58] <Dr_willis> that card should work find with the ubuntus.
[16:58] <Dr_willis> fine.
[17:02] <hasse> hello, mythstream, why isn't that updated when libmyth is ?
[17:02] <Aquahallic> yeah... I've had it working with knoppmyth fine... but the newest build of knoppmyth used a newer legacy driver and I had to revert back to 1.0.8776.... or all my fonts were jacked
[17:02] <Aquahallic> so I'm trying to figure out how to revert back on mythbuntu... but when I do it says it can't load GLX
[17:02] <Aquahallic> :/
[17:03] <Dr_willis> check the xcorg.conf for a line mentioning GLX.
[17:03] <Aquahallic> yup
[17:03] <Aquahallic> it's there
[17:03] <Aquahallic> as an option
[17:03] <Dr_willis> Try commenting it out? :)
[17:04] <Dr_willis> perhaps the older cards cant do glx?
[17:04] <Aquahallic> yes it can
[17:04] <Aquahallic> I had it with my other build
[17:04] <Dr_willis> ive given away all my old cards. so cant even test abny more
[17:04] <Aquahallic> yeah... mine will support it
[17:05] <Dr_willis> could backup the xorg.conf - move/rename it and generate a new one.
[17:05] <Aquahallic> just something isn't getting built right when I do apt-get install nvidia-glx-legacy
[17:05] <Aquahallic> did that already
[17:05] <Aquahallic> :)
[17:05] <Aquahallic> even tried my old one I was using before
[17:05] <Dr_willis> I alwo see mention of glx here...  for legacy cards.
[17:05] <Dr_willis> Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
[17:05] <Dr_willis> Segmentation fault
[17:06] <Aquahallic> I get that Xlib error
[17:06] <Dr_willis> /var/log/Xorg.0.log:
[17:06] <Aquahallic> but I never did before....:(
[17:06] <Dr_willis> (EE) GLX is not supported with the Composite extension
[17:06] <Dr_willis> The site says to disable the composite extension
[17:07] <Aquahallic> composite??
[17:07] <Dr_willis> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[17:07] <Dr_willis> about 1/2 way down
[17:08] <Aquahallic> hmmm
[17:08] <Aquahallic> let me give that a whirl...;)
[17:08] <Aquahallic> ty
[17:08]  * Aquahallic crosses all fingers and toes
[17:08] <Dr_willis> Well im off to get ready for work.. :( ugh
[17:09] <Aquahallic> thx for the help
[17:26] <hasse> hello, mythstream, why isn't that updated when libmyth is ? and when
[17:27] <tgm4883> hasse, should it be?
[17:27] <hasse> i cant execute it because of libmyth is wrong version
[17:28] <tgm4883> what version of mythstream?
[17:28] <tgm4883> and what version of libmyth
[17:31] <hasse> just a moment
[17:32] <hasse> the text on screen : the mythstream was compiled against libmyth version. 0.20.20070821-1, but the installed libmyth version is 0.21.20071211-1
[17:34] <superm1> hasse, should have been queued up in this weekend's weekly build
[17:34] <superm1> laga added support for it
[17:34] <superm1> i'll check with him
[17:35] <hasse> great,
[17:35] <Daviey> has it been pushed?
[17:40] <superm1> yeah it pushed
[17:40] <superm1> according to the .upload file
[17:40] <hasse> when
[17:41] <superm1> well a matter of when isnt the problem
[17:41] <superm1> because it doesnt show up in the list of packages
[17:41] <superm1> https://edge.launchpad.net/~mythbuntu-trunk/+archive
[17:41] <hasse> ohhh, i thought that "pushed" means if it in the repository
[17:42] <Daviey> superm1: When are we going to start building weekly hardy's?
[17:43] <superm1> Daviey, haven't considered it yet
[17:43] <superm1> hardy isn't a good idea to use until foxbuntu and i finish up the lirc changes anyhow
[17:43] <superm1> i finished up the main package 3 days ago
[17:43] <superm1> just need to finish up the revamp of mcc
[17:43] <Daviey> anything i can do?
[17:43] <superm1> yes
[17:44] <superm1> if you can adjust ubiquity
[17:44] <superm1> to the lirc changes
[17:46] <Daviey> I can take a look
[17:47] <Daviey> Oh, still no reply RE: firmware
[17:57] <Iolaus> superm1: Any idea when the next trunk build will be released?
[17:57] <superm1> Iolaus, should show up today
[17:57] <Iolaus> it looks like laga comitted a patch to fix the problem I was having
[17:57] <superm1> after the mirrors sync
[17:57] <Iolaus> sweet :)
[17:57] <Iolaus> thanks
[18:13] <MythbuntuGuest92> hello
[18:14] <MythbuntuGuest92> pls how can i read media file over network from using mythbuntu and the files are stored in windows share machine ?
[18:15] <superm1> depends if its a one time thing and if you need to read it in mythtv
[18:15] <superm1> if you want to read it in mythtv
[18:15] <superm1> mount it using smbfs or cifs
[18:16] <MythbuntuGuest92> superml so i have to make a symbolic link in the videos folder ?
[18:16] <superm1> either that or mount within the videos folder
[18:17] <MythbuntuGuest92> superml can mythbuntu use more than one separated folder as video source folder ?
[18:17] <superm1> yup
[18:17] <superm1> just mount several of them below the videos folder
[18:17] <superm1> or at least symlink to several inside the videos folder
[18:18] <MythbuntuGuest92> superml but i have to rescan folder every time i want to view new files ?
[18:18] <superm1> there is a setting to not do that
[18:18] <superm1> in mythvideo settings
[18:20] <MythbuntuGuest92> superml in which part of the mythbuntu control center ?
[18:21] <superm1> it's in mythvideo settings outside of mcc
[18:21] <superm1> but in mythtv
[18:23] <MythbuntuGuest92> superml another question pls i have a separated hard disk ext3 format wich i get from another linux machine and i mounted physically on the mythbuntu machine but i cannot write on it i  can only read
[18:24] <superm1> are you keeping it there permanently ?
[18:24] <superm1> or just temp.
[18:24] <MythbuntuGuest92> superml yes permanently
[18:24] <superm1> probably just need to chown it
[18:24] <superm1> to your user
[18:25] <MythbuntuGuest92> superml ubuntu ask me for password every time i want to access to that drive
[18:25] <MythbuntuGuest92> how do i do it automaticly ?
[18:25] <superm1> add it to your fstab
[18:25] <superm1> so that it mounts at boot
[18:25] <superm1> /etc/fstab
[18:26] <MythbuntuGuest92> superml ok thaks man you are an angel :)
[18:27] <superm1> np
[19:18] <alec__> Hi.  Could someone please help me with an audio problem I'm having?  Thanks.
[19:19] <laga> well
[19:19] <laga> no?
[19:54] <Iolaus> Hey laga, thanks for committing a fix for the mythlib-perl issue in trunk!
[20:39] <The-1> hey everyone
[20:41] <The-1> im kinda stuck in the middle of installing mythtv on mythubuntu
[20:41] <The-1> im stuck on the capture card setup screen
[20:41] <The-1> and i have a skystar2 dvb-s card can someone please help me?
[20:55] <Iolaus> anyone else having trouble with the US weekly build mirror?
[20:57] <Iolaus> I'm getting 403 forbidden on the web address
[21:09] <mindofmetal> So, I edited the mythnews rss xml listing, and now it's broken when I try to go through setup and specify my new feed.  I get nothing but a blue empty screen.  I tried removing my new lines in the news-sites.xml but it's still just an empty blue screen.  Doesnt bother me to much as I have already set up the feeds I want, but is it not possible to add a new feed?
[21:42] <superm1> Iolaus, try again
[21:42] <superm1> i just manually resynced it
[21:57] <MythbuntuGuest93> helllo
[21:58] <MythbuntuGuest93> pls how can i increase the mplayer buffer when reading media from network
[22:04] <Aquahallic> evenin' folks
[22:06] <Iolaus> superm1: I still seem to be getting 403 permission denied
[22:07] <Iolaus> when trying to access this: http://weeklybuilds.mythbuntu.org/mythbuntu-trunk/ubuntu
[22:07] <superm1> Iolaus, you can't browse it
[22:07] <superm1> only apt can
[22:07] <Iolaus> ah
[22:07] <Iolaus> let me try apt again
[22:08] <Iolaus> sweet, looks better now :)
[22:08] <savageone1> howdie folks
[22:08] <savageone1> my mythbuntu box rocks
[22:08] <savageone1> figured I'd give some poisitive feedback instead of asking a question haha
[22:09] <superm1> thanks savageone1 :)
[22:13] <JGJones> I second that :)
[22:14] <JGJones> It's awesome...just a pity I'm unable to pick up some mux's in NIreland despite a set-top box being able to do so with full strength signal, but mythtv gives me 60% at best - I blame the hardware not mythbuntu in this case btw.
[22:16] <JGJones> which remain me...
[22:17] <JGJones> what's a good hardware that's very well supported on Linux for digital TV (Freeview in UK)?
[22:17] <JGJones> Ideally a dual tuner if possible
[22:18] <JGJones> I am using the Nova-T 500 card atm but as mentioned, it doesn't seem to be able to boost the signal itself so I have a weak signal and miss out on channels such as ITV, Film4 and so on.
[22:22] <Aquahallic> Anyone using a "Homebrew Serial Receiver" for lirc with mythbuntu?
[22:34] <JGJones> Is anyone using a sat for Mythbuntu as opposed to over-the-air digital TV?
[22:34] <JGJones> am wondering what's a good sat card with a Common Interface (for card) to get?
[22:52] <jcg42> Is it easier to install Mythbuntu then the ubuntu-desktop package or to install the regular Ubuntu and Install Mythbuntu on top of that?
[23:03] <Iolaus> Hey guys, I upgraded to trunk successfully now with the new build but I'm not able to get TV working.  I'm getting the following in the front-end log: http://pastebin.com/d174df2e8
[23:04] <Iolaus> The front-end is actually running on the same server as the back-end
[23:04] <john__> anyone here good with nfs shares?
[23:07] <superm1> Iolaus, check the backend log
[23:07] <superm1> is it actually running?
[23:08] <Iolaus> I'm not seeing anything unusual in the backend log and the process list seems to indicate the backend it up and running fine
[23:10] <Iolaus> here's what I've got from the backend log: http://pastebin.com/m45f15915
[23:11] <superm1> check what ports its listening on
[23:11] <superm1> with netstat then
[23:11] <Iolaus> k
[23:12] <Iolaus> hmm... should I be seeing mythtv in the netstat list?
[23:13] <Iolaus> I'm seeing mysqld but not myth
[23:15] <superm1> if you have it bound to the public interface, yes you should be seeing it
[23:15] <torkel> are there any know issues with gutsy and hauppauge 350's and no sounds in the recordings? Checking lp and the mythtv/ivtv mailinglists indicates that there may be problems but I can't find any definite answer
[23:15] <Iolaus> superm1, is there any way it could have gotten mis-bound during the upgrade to trunk?
[23:16] <Iolaus> everything was working well before the upgrade
[23:16] <superm1> from an old trunk to a new trunk?
[23:16] <superm1> or from fixes to trunk?
[23:16] <superm1> toorima, not that i'm aware
[23:16] <Iolaus> fixes to new trunk
[23:18] <superm1> Iolaus, the way that was configured might have changed, but i dont use trunk myself
[23:18] <superm1> so i'm not positive
[23:18] <superm1> i use fixes myself still :)
[23:18] <Iolaus> hmm.. can you tell me how to check which interface myth is bound to?
[23:19] <Iolaus> during the setup it said it would use the first interface listed from ifconfig (which in my case is eth0 and is the active interface)
[23:19] <superm1> sudo netstat -antp | grep myth
[23:19] <superm1> should tell you
[23:19] <superm1> that is for mysql binding
[23:20] <Iolaus> tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:6544            0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN     6148/mythbackend
[23:20] <superm1> that's a different port then normal
[23:20] <superm1> did that change in trunk perhaps?
[23:20] <superm1> its normally 6543 i thought
[23:21] <Iolaus> I think trunk said something about 6544 being the status port
[23:21] <Iolaus> it was still set to 6543 for the master server port
[23:21] <Iolaus> The lack of the 6543 port must be the issue though, I wonder what the deal is
[23:22] <superm1> well yours there isn't listening on 6543, so that's gotta be related
[23:24] <Iolaus> strange, you'd think mythbackend log would be yelling if there was a problem
[23:32] <john__> is there something that needs to be changed to allow a connection from a mythbuntu to a gusty box? I can ping my router and access the net from both pc's but can't ping each other
[23:35] <tgm4883> john__, you need to enable the mysql service in MCC
[23:35] <tgm4883> on the master backend
[23:37] <john__> do i have to restart the mythbuntu box then?
[23:37] <john__> i used the mcc panel to enable it
[23:37] <tgm4883> yes
[23:43] <john__> john@john-feisty:~$ ping 192.168.1.10
[23:43] <john__> PING 192.168.1.10 (192.168.1.10) 56(84) bytes of data.

[23:43] <john__> From 192.168.1.101 icmp_seq=2 Destination Host Unreachable
[23:43] <john__> still can't ping either box
[23:44] <Daviey> john__: both have access to the interweb?
[23:44] <john__> interweb?
[23:44] <Daviey> internet
[23:44] <john__> yes
[23:44] <john__> plus both boxes can ping my router
[23:44] <tgm4883> does your backend get the ip via dhcp?
[23:45] <john__> john@john-feisty:~$ ssh -x john@192.168.1.10
[23:45] <john__> ssh: connect to host 192.168.1.10 port 22: No route to host
[23:45] <john__> no it's static
[23:45] <Daviey> john__: You have 3 pc's right?
[23:45] <john__> 5 actually
[23:46] <Daviey> I'd compare traceroutes/tracepath to google.com
[23:46] <Daviey> $ tracepath google.com
[23:47] <john__> ok i have to install it first...lol
[23:47] <Daviey> not that it should matter, but are all 5 pc's on the same subnet?
[23:48] <Daviey> And what sort of router do you have?
[23:48] <john__> yes
[23:48] <john__> a linksys wrt54g
[23:49] <Daviey> I'd be blaming that atm.. but i can't see why
[23:49] <Daviey> so both myth boxes can ping (example) google.com..
[23:49] <Daviey> can they ping non myth boxes?
[23:49] <Daviey> and they can't ping each other tho?
[23:50] <tgm4883> john__, can you powercycle the router
[23:50] <john__> did that
[23:50] <tgm4883> is one of the computers wireless?
[23:51] <john__> yes the wife's windoze is wireless and i can ping the windoz box from both pc's
[23:51] <Daviey> sill question, you are _certain_ that the myth boxes are holding the ip you think they are?  ($ ifconfig)
[23:51] <Daviey> silly question*
[23:52] <john__> Daviey yes there all static and i checked again and there still there yet
[23:53] <john__> now this odd
[23:53] <john__> john@john-feisty:~$ tracepath google.com

[23:53] <john__> i don't even have a 103 on my network
[23:53]  * tgm4883 is confused
[23:54] <john__> that makes 2 of us...lol
