[00:10] <toorima> I', trying to add a few remote controll keys. its /home/myusername/.lircrc right? nothing happens when i add commands to it
[01:44] <MythbuntuGuest21> where to find the hardware information like in ubuntu
[02:28] <tgm4883> toorima, did you restart lirc after changing it?
[02:40] <toorima> tgm4883: yeah
[02:41] <toorima> i'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 happens
[10:20] <timelapse> anyone 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 it
[14:41] <riddlebox> can you add mythbuntu repos to ubuntu and turn ubuntu to mythbuntu?
[14:47] <Daviey> yes
[15:11] <riddlebox> Daviey, if I add them and do apt-get dist-upgrade will it turn it into mythbuntu?
[15:16] <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?
[15:22] <riddlebox> Daviey, nm I should have read the site more
[15:22] <riddlebox> http://www.mythbuntu.org/existing-ubuntu
[15:22] <riddlebox> pretty much spells it out ;)
[15:41] <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.
[15:42] <matt_> It didn't come with a remote, so I'm using the remote that came with my Hauppauge HVR-1800
[15:42] <matt_> I'm just confused about configuration.
[15:42] <matt_> Do I set the lircd.conf "Driver" value to the receiver or the remote?
[15:43] <matt_> I had it set to "imon" yesterday, on my first, unsuccessful try, and I was able to see codes being received, using "mode2".
[15:44] <matt_> But other than that, there was no funtionality with the remote.
[15:45] <matt_> The remote model, if it matters, seems to be an MCE-compatible remote with the model # RRS9002-86XXF

[18:29] <hansoffate> heh, bimbel do you know how to fix a crashed mysql database/
[18:29] <hansoffate> i think i should start backing up my databases ... i haven't started doing it
[18:29] <hansoffate> and now one of them needs to be repaired
[18:31] <bimbel> backup and reinstall? i'm new here
[18:32] <hansoffate> reinstall mythbuntu? ... no way, i finallly got it setup the way i want
[18:32] <hansoffate> lol
[18:32] <hansoffate> well i'll do it as a last resort, i'll wait to get some other answers

[18:33] <bimbel> and reinstall it
[18:36] <Diabolic> I have a GeForce FX5200, using the DVI output to HDMI on the TV.  But the edges are cut off on the TV.
[18:37] <Daviey> overscan :(
[18:39] <Diabolic> k, it's not just when I enter Ubuntu.  It's like that at the BIOS startup and all.
[18:39] <Diabolic> Is it still overscan?
[18:42] <JGJones> Greetings
[18:42] <bimbel> moin
[18:42] <JGJones> Have a wee icky problem with my happauge tv card....
[18:43] <JGJones> set top box picks up all digital tv channels in Freeview just fine.
[18:43] <Darkmystere> hi
[18:43] <JGJones> happauge 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?)
[18:44] <JGJones> so that means I get BBC etc, and Five and Film Four etc, but I do not get Channel 4, ITV etc
[18:45] <hansoffate> bimbel Moin Moin
[18:45] <bimbel> :)
[18:45] <JGJones> Signal 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] <Darkmystere> Do Any computer come Equiped with A compatible mythtv card\
[18:46] <JGJones> I'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] <JGJones> Darkmystere - yes if you're in UK, you can look at efficientPC.co.uk website - they sell computers with happauage tv cards
[18:49] <Daviey> JGJones: Have you followed the mythtv wiki guide?
[18:50] <JGJones> Yes including setting the option to enable the booster in erm.../etc/modules/option (something like that)
[18:50] <Daviey> sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/options
[18:50] <Daviey> Add: options dvb-usb-dib0700 force_lna_activation=1
[18:50] <JGJones> that's the one
[18:50] <JGJones> yes I did that one.
[18:50] <Daviey> then it should be working :)
[18:51] <JGJones> Just double chkeced on mythtv-backend server - yup it's set
[18:52] <JGJones> so should I assume that either a) the booster is really really crap or b) it's broken
[18:53] <Daviey> i'd check ariel and coax
[18:53] <Darkmystere> ooh
[18:53] <Darkmystere> I bought my Toshiba Sattilite from UK
[18:54] <JGJones> Daviey: 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)
[18:55] <hansoffate> So, anyone know how to fix a crashed MYSQL database?
[18:55] <JGJones> and with new cable as well.
[18:55] <hansoffate> error 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.php
[18:55] <hansoffate>   error line:  73
[18:55] <Daviey> hmm.. JGJones the signal strength isn't necessarily accurate.. is the picture reliable?
[18:56] <JGJones> BBC 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] <Daviey> hmm
[18:56] <Daviey> I get that with CBeebies and Chan5
[18:57] <Daviey> but i blame that on ariel just shoved on the rafters
[18:57] <JGJones> btw my tv card is happuage nova-t 500 (dual digital tuner card)
[18:57] <Daviey> yeah, i use the standard one - PCI
[18:57] <JGJones> which I am aware that was only supported not long ago.
[18:57] <Daviey> your's is really 2 x USB :)
[18:58] <JGJones> aye...would it be a case of driver support?
[18:58] <Daviey> wouldnt think so
[18:58] <Daviey> no idea tho
[18:58] <JGJones> I'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.
[18:59] <Daviey> are you running it through an external booster?
[19:00] <JGJones> Nope - Tried that, no different on happuage, but made things worse on set top box.
[19:00] <Daviey> yeah, they can do that
[19:00] <Daviey> Thats what i was going to say :)
[19:03] <JGJones> sigh...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.
[19:14] <hansoffate> so no one here knows how to fix an SQL Error?
[19:15] <hansoffate> Here is my Error, If anyone has anyideas, please tell them to me:   http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/3713/
[19:27] <JGJones> hansoffate: 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] <JGJones> have a read and see if that match your error in any way?
[19:32] <Aquahallic> afternoon folks

[20:11] <hansoffate> thanks, bye
[20:17] <KjetilK> I'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#6
[20:18] <KjetilK> the two start-stop-daemon lines that eventually will be executed are
[20:18] <KjetilK> start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --exec /usr/sbin/lircd -- --driver=default --device=/dev/lirc_imon --output=/dev/lircd --pidfile=/var/run/lircd.pid --connect=localhost:8765
[20:18] <KjetilK> start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --exec /usr/sbin/lircd -- --driver=default --device=/dev/lirc_pvr --output=/dev/lircd1 --pidfile=/var/run/lircd1.pid --listen
[20:18] <KjetilK> but it appears that I can only get one of them to run
[20:22] <KjetilK> the first line I run is left running after I've launched both, the other is not started
[20:22] <KjetilK> regardless of which of them I run first
[20:23] <KjetilK> I see this in my syslog:
[20:23] <KjetilK> Jan 20 21:18:26 tigger lircd-0.8.2[7433]: failure connecting to localhost
[20:23] <KjetilK> Jan 20 21:18:26 tigger lircd-0.8.2[7433]: Connection refused

[22:07] <MythbuntuGuest76> Hey anyone know much about harddisk bandwith?
[22:08] <MythbuntuGuest76> I looking to see how many tuners IDE can handle
[22:10] <tgm4883> MythbuntuGuest76, wikipedia is your friend
[22:14] <tgm4883> MythbuntuGuest76, it obviously also depends on whether you want SD or HD
[22:32] <Seeker`> I have just upgraded to the weekly trunk build, and it cannot find libmythtv-0.20.2.so.0
[22:33] <Seeker`> any ideas?
[22:52] <tgm4883_laptop> rhpot1991_laptop, ping
[22:54] <rhpot1991_laptop> tgm4883_laptop: pong
[22:54] <tgm4883_laptop> I read that blog post on blockbuster
[22:54] <tgm4883_laptop> I was less than impressed
[22:54] <rhpot1991_laptop> it was kinda a rant
[22:54] <tgm4883_laptop> yes
[22:55] <rhpot1991_laptop> I didn't know they had all those restrictions on the instore stuff though
[22:55] <tgm4883_laptop> as it stands, the only benefit that netflix has is the instant PC download
[22:55] <tgm4883_laptop> which i dont think works all too well in linux
[22:55] <rhpot1991_laptop> or at all
[22:55] <tgm4883_laptop> exactly
[22:55] <tgm4883_laptop> i read the 3 complaints that he had
[22:55] <rhpot1991_laptop> you get RSS feeds to mess with with netflix
[22:56] <rhpot1991_laptop> nothing like that with BBO (that I am aware of)
[22:56] <rhpot1991_laptop> and I'm not interested in paying more for "free" instore options
[22:56] <tgm4883_laptop> and I must say, that I think that 90% was his own fault
[22:56] <rhpot1991_laptop> thats my main complaint with BBO, their false advertising
[22:56] <tgm4883_laptop> true
[22:56] <tgm4883_laptop> that and they keep jacking the price up
[22:57] <tgm4883_laptop> that will be the reason I leave BB
[22:57] <rhpot1991_laptop> I've been happy with netflix so far
[22:57] <tgm4883_laptop> although, for roughly the same price, I can have a few instore exchanges
[22:57] <rhpot1991_laptop> ya, if you use that option its great
[22:57] <tgm4883_laptop> if I could get pc d/l in mythbuntu i'd switch right now
[22:58] <rhpot1991_laptop> I doubt that will happen any time soon
[22:58] <tgm4883_laptop> i also question how long he has had blockbuster
[22:58] <rhpot1991_laptop> I contemplated calling them up and asking for a discount cause that feature doesn't work with my OS
[22:59] <tgm4883_laptop> someone should write a better netflix plugin
[23:00] <rhpot1991_laptop> the current one is broken
[23:00] <rhpot1991_laptop> or it was the last I checked
[23:00] <tgm4883_laptop> i'm looking at some of the vista mce plugins
[23:00] <tgm4883_laptop> which are kinda nice
[23:00] <rhpot1991_laptop> I won't touch vista with a 10 foot pole
[23:01] <rhpot1991_laptop> I prefer my resources not wasted on random drm crap
[23:01] <tgm4883_laptop> well i have to look, it's my job
[23:01] <rhpot1991_laptop> how so?
[23:02] <tgm4883_laptop> well this week, my job requires me to research and compare/contrast different home a/v solutions
[23:02] <rhpot1991_laptop> ah
[23:03] <rhpot1991_laptop> gonna pimp out mythtv?
[23:03] <tgm4883_laptop> sometimes I have restrictions, such as directv only :(
[23:03] <tgm4883_laptop> depending on where the home is located
[23:03] <tgm4883_laptop> that new hauppauge card will come in handy :)
[23:03] <rhpot1991_laptop> hopefully linux support for it wont take as long as the current hauppauge HD cards
[23:04] <tgm4883_laptop> I dont think it will
[23:04] <tgm4883_laptop> not after all the hard work MS went to get that directv tuner box
[23:05] <tgm4883_laptop> also, since this will be the only card like it, there should be a few hackers working on it from the start
[23:06] <tgm4883_laptop> the xbox works pretty well as a frontend, although i found a few more quirks
[23:07] <rhpot1991_laptop> like?
[23:07] <tgm4883_laptop> but nothing that the normal user would run into
[23:07] <tgm4883_laptop> except for the live tv thing
[23:08] <rhpot1991_laptop> ever get live tv working?
[23:08] <tgm4883_laptop> well, 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 though
[23:09] <tgm4883_laptop> and wouldn't show up in mythweb either
[23:09] <tgm4883_laptop> i had to go to a real frontend to fix it by reactivating the show
[23:09] <tgm4883_laptop> nope, never got live tv working, although i haven't tried ;)
[23:10] <tgm4883_laptop> I think it's better for everyone to just learn the new way to watch TV
[23:10] <rhpot1991_laptop> I hardly ever use the live tv functionality actually
[23:10] <rhpot1991_laptop> so that doesn't bother me much
[23:11] <tgm4883_laptop> me neither
[23:11] <tgm4883_laptop> it's like, whats the point?
[23:11] <tgm4883_laptop> if I wanted to watch commercials, i wouldn't have bought a mythbox
[23:29] <javatexan> howdy all
[23:29] <javatexan> I 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] <Tar1> it's probably using both cores
[23:30] <Tar1> 100% generally is full utilization of both cores
[23:30] <javatexan> how can you tell, and why is my video playback skipping
[23:30] <javatexan> ;)
[23:31] <javatexan> should I change the setting to mplayer within myth to have it be more greedy?
[23:31] <javatexan> can I nice it....like nice 10 mplayer.....blah...blah?
[23:32] <tgm4883_laptop> javatexan, what is the output of uname -a
[23:32] <javatexan> Linux spacestation 2.6.22-14-generic #1 SMP Tue Dec 18 08:02:57 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux
[23:40] <jakemonO> runnoing mythbuntu 7.10 and mythfilldatabase isnt happening automagicaly...anyone know why/how to fix? thanx in adv.
[23:46] <jakemonO> ...i ssh in and run  run it manually very few days...bit of a pain...i c daleq just posted same q on official mythbuntu forum, plz reply there for canonical purposes & I'll pick up thread through my subscription
[23:50] <pdragon> check the backend log to see if it gives you any idea?
