toorimaI', trying to add a few remote controll keys. its /home/myusername/.lircrc right? nothing happens when i add commands to it00:10
MythbuntuGuest21where to find the hardware information like in ubuntu01:44
tgm4883toorima, did you restart lirc after changing it?02:28
toorimatgm4883: yeah02:40
toorimai've added commands for mythtv before and that worked (pip among other things) but now I wanted commands to toggle subs for mplayer and nothing happens02:41
timelapseanyone know a url to something discussing how to stop mythtv from recording reruns; i.e. it wants to record daily show reruns for some reason needlessly and i cannot stop it10:20
riddleboxcan you add mythbuntu repos to ubuntu and turn ubuntu to mythbuntu?14:41
Davieyyes14:47
riddleboxDaviey, if I add them and do apt-get dist-upgrade will it turn it into mythbuntu?15:11
bobbob1016_I can't seem to get mythtv running.  I'm having mysql-server issues.  I can't seem to find it in the install guide pdf, can anyone help?15:16
riddleboxDaviey, nm I should have read the site more15:22
riddleboxhttp://www.mythbuntu.org/existing-ubuntu15:22
riddleboxpretty much spells it out ;)15:22
matt_I'm having some config issues with lirc, if anyone is around?15:41
matt_I have an Imon IR/LCD panel, that was OEMd in my Antec Black Fusion 430 case.15:41
matt_It didn't come with a remote, so I'm using the remote that came with my Hauppauge HVR-180015:42
matt_I'm just confused about configuration.15:42
matt_Do I set the lircd.conf "Driver" value to the receiver or the remote?15:42
matt_I had it set to "imon" yesterday, on my first, unsuccessful try, and I was able to see codes being received, using "mode2".15:43
matt_But other than that, there was no funtionality with the remote.15:44
matt_The remote model, if it matters, seems to be an MCE-compatible remote with the model # RRS9002-86XXF15:45

DiabolicI have a GeForce FX5200, using the DVI output to HDMI on the TV.  But the edges are cut off on the TV.18:36
Davieyoverscan :(18:37
Diabolick, it's not just when I enter Ubuntu.  It's like that at the BIOS startup and all.18:39
DiabolicIs it still overscan?18:39
JGJonesGreetings18:42
bimbelmoin18:42
JGJonesHave a wee icky problem with my happauge tv card....18:42
JGJonesset top box picks up all digital tv channels in Freeview just fine.18:43
Darkmysterehi18:43
JGJoneshappauge card only picks up channels from 2 um...what do you call them...blocks (if I remember rightly, a small collection of channels are broadcast in blocks, 6 blocks making up all of freeview?)18:43
JGJonesso that means I get BBC etc, and Five and Film Four etc, but I do not get Channel 4, ITV etc18:44
hansoffatebimbel Moin Moin18:45
bimbel:)18:45
JGJonesSignal strength on the set top box show about 60-70% for ITV, Channel 4 etc and close to 100% for BBC etc but my happuage card in mythtv shows that for BBC it is about 60%18:45
DarkmystereDo Any computer come Equiped with A compatible mythtv card\18:45
JGJonesI'm guessing that happauge can't get ITV/Channel 4 etc cos the signal strength is too weak...but how come the set top box can do so just fine - so how can I test if the happauge's onboard booster is working?18:46
JGJonesDarkmystere - yes if you're in UK, you can look at efficientPC.co.uk website - they sell computers with happauage tv cards18:46
DavieyJGJones: Have you followed the mythtv wiki guide?18:49
JGJonesYes including setting the option to enable the booster in erm.../etc/modules/option (something like that)18:50
Davieysudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/options18:50
DavieyAdd: options dvb-usb-dib0700 force_lna_activation=118:50
JGJonesthat's the one18:50
JGJonesyes I did that one.18:50
Davieythen it should be working :)18:50
JGJonesJust double chkeced on mythtv-backend server - yup it's set18:51
JGJonesso should I assume that either a) the booster is really really crap or b) it's broken18:52
Davieyi'd check ariel and coax18:53
Darkmystereooh18:53
DarkmystereI bought my Toshiba Sattilite from UK18:53
JGJonesDaviey: I've even tested using the same cable that goes into the set top box (I want to just get rid of it, it's an extremely cheap rubbish set top box and replace with mythtv fulltime)18:54
hansoffateSo, anyone know how to fix a crashed MYSQL database?18:55
JGJonesand with new cable as well.18:55
hansoffateerror string:  SQL Error: Table './mythconverg/oldrecorded' is marked as crashed and should be repaired [#145]18:55
hansoffate    filename:  /usr/share/mythtv/mythweb/includes/objects/Database_Query_mysql.php18:55
hansoffate  error line:  7318:55
Davieyhmm.. JGJones the signal strength isn't necessarily accurate.. is the picture reliable?18:55
JGJonesBBC et al - lovely picture however o nsome channels ie...hmm...Dave, or Virgin1 (both which are fine on set top box) can often break up into blocks.18:56
Davieyhmm18:56
DavieyI get that with CBeebies and Chan518:56
Davieybut i blame that on ariel just shoved on the rafters18:57
JGJonesbtw my tv card is happuage nova-t 500 (dual digital tuner card)18:57
Davieyyeah, i use the standard one - PCI18:57
JGJoneswhich I am aware that was only supported not long ago.18:57
Davieyyour's is really 2 x USB :)18:57
JGJonesaye...would it be a case of driver support?18:58
Davieywouldnt think so18:58
Davieyno idea tho18:58
JGJonesI'm perfectly happy to buy a new tv tuner card if that's what it would take to fix it - plenty of programmes that I'll like to be able to record on ITV or Channel 4 etc but not getting them.18:58
Davieyare you running it through an external booster?18:59
JGJonesNope - Tried that, no different on happuage, but made things worse on set top box.19:00
Davieyyeah, they can do that19:00
DavieyThats what i was going to say :)19:00
JGJonessigh...it's a damn shame about that. I'll have to assume the onboard booster isn't working (I think it was rather flaky on Windows but then I've never liked happuage's drivers) - anyone suggest anything suitable? I only have a single PCI so would prefer dual digital tuners if possible.19:03
hansoffateso no one here knows how to fix an SQL Error?19:14
hansoffateHere is my Error, If anyone has anyideas, please tell them to me:   http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/3713/19:15
JGJoneshansoffate: I don't know how to fix, but a quick good search about fixing errors suggest this - http://paulstamatiou.com/2006/05/31/how-to-quickie-repair-mysql-tables-in-phpmyadmin/19:27
JGJoneshave a read and see if that match your error in any way?19:27
Aquahallicafternoon folks19:32
Aquahallicanyone else seen any problems with going to the guide watching LiveTV... I've set the painter to Qt and it still will hang the box HARD.... no logs on anything to do with it anywhere that I can find19:38

KjetilKI'm trying to get my lircd up with two devices, with the help of http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Volume_Knob_on_Antec_Fusion and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=649516#620:17

MythbuntuGuest76Hey anyone know much about harddisk bandwith?22:07
MythbuntuGuest76I looking to see how many tuners IDE can handle22:08
tgm4883MythbuntuGuest76, wikipedia is your friend22:10
tgm4883MythbuntuGuest76, it obviously also depends on whether you want SD or HD22:14
Seeker`I have just upgraded to the weekly trunk build, and it cannot find libmythtv-0.20.2.so.022:32
Seeker`any ideas?22:33
tgm4883_laptoprhpot1991_laptop, ping22:52
rhpot1991_laptoptgm4883_laptop: pong22:54
tgm4883_laptopI read that blog post on blockbuster22:54
tgm4883_laptopI was less than impressed22:54
rhpot1991_laptopit was kinda a rant22:54
tgm4883_laptopyes22:54
rhpot1991_laptopI didn't know they had all those restrictions on the instore stuff though22:55
tgm4883_laptopas it stands, the only benefit that netflix has is the instant PC download22:55
tgm4883_laptopwhich i dont think works all too well in linux22:55
rhpot1991_laptopor at all22:55
tgm4883_laptopexactly22:55
tgm4883_laptopi read the 3 complaints that he had22:55
rhpot1991_laptopyou get RSS feeds to mess with with netflix22:55
rhpot1991_laptopnothing like that with BBO (that I am aware of)22:56
rhpot1991_laptopand I'm not interested in paying more for "free" instore options22:56
tgm4883_laptopand I must say, that I think that 90% was his own fault22:56
rhpot1991_laptopthats my main complaint with BBO, their false advertising22:56
tgm4883_laptoptrue22:56
tgm4883_laptopthat and they keep jacking the price up22:56
tgm4883_laptopthat will be the reason I leave BB22:57
rhpot1991_laptopI've been happy with netflix so far22:57
tgm4883_laptopalthough, for roughly the same price, I can have a few instore exchanges22:57
rhpot1991_laptopya, if you use that option its great22:57
tgm4883_laptopif I could get pc d/l in mythbuntu i'd switch right now22:57
rhpot1991_laptopI doubt that will happen any time soon22:58
tgm4883_laptopi also question how long he has had blockbuster22:58
rhpot1991_laptopI contemplated calling them up and asking for a discount cause that feature doesn't work with my OS22:58
tgm4883_laptopsomeone should write a better netflix plugin22:59
rhpot1991_laptopthe current one is broken23:00
rhpot1991_laptopor it was the last I checked23:00
tgm4883_laptopi'm looking at some of the vista mce plugins23:00
tgm4883_laptopwhich are kinda nice23:00
rhpot1991_laptopI won't touch vista with a 10 foot pole23:00
rhpot1991_laptopI prefer my resources not wasted on random drm crap23:01
tgm4883_laptopwell i have to look, it's my job23:01
rhpot1991_laptophow so?23:01
tgm4883_laptopwell this week, my job requires me to research and compare/contrast different home a/v solutions23:02
rhpot1991_laptopah23:02
rhpot1991_laptopgonna pimp out mythtv?23:03
tgm4883_laptopsometimes I have restrictions, such as directv only :(23:03
tgm4883_laptopdepending on where the home is located23:03
tgm4883_laptopthat new hauppauge card will come in handy :)23:03
rhpot1991_laptophopefully linux support for it wont take as long as the current hauppauge HD cards23:03
tgm4883_laptopI dont think it will23:04
tgm4883_laptopnot after all the hard work MS went to get that directv tuner box23:04
tgm4883_laptopalso, since this will be the only card like it, there should be a few hackers working on it from the start23:05
tgm4883_laptopthe xbox works pretty well as a frontend, although i found a few more quirks23:06
rhpot1991_laptoplike?23:07
tgm4883_laptopbut nothing that the normal user would run into23:07
tgm4883_laptopexcept for the live tv thing23:07
rhpot1991_laptopever get live tv working?23:08
tgm4883_laptopwell, i scheduled a recording of a show in progress (NFL) while another show was already recording, then canceled the current show.  The NFL show still showed a conflict though23:08
tgm4883_laptopand wouldn't show up in mythweb either23:09
tgm4883_laptopi had to go to a real frontend to fix it by reactivating the show23:09
tgm4883_laptopnope, never got live tv working, although i haven't tried ;)23:09
tgm4883_laptopI think it's better for everyone to just learn the new way to watch TV23:10
rhpot1991_laptopI hardly ever use the live tv functionality actually23:10
rhpot1991_laptopso that doesn't bother me much23:10
tgm4883_laptopme neither23:11
tgm4883_laptopit's like, whats the point?23:11
tgm4883_laptopif I wanted to watch commercials, i wouldn't have bought a mythbox23:11
javatexanhowdy all23:29
javatexanI am having trouble using my duo 2 core....;) I know that what I am asking ubuntu to run will be more than 100 and thats okay, I want it to use both cores.....why is it working so hard to keep things under 100 percent with the other core idle?23:29
Tar1it's probably using both cores23:29
Tar1100% generally is full utilization of both cores23:30
javatexanhow can you tell, and why is my video playback skipping23:30
javatexan;)23:30
javatexanshould I change the setting to mplayer within myth to have it be more greedy?23:31
