| MythbuntuGuest61 | How do I update to MythTV 0.21 without using Mythbuntu 8.04 | 03:12 |
| superm1 | mythtv 0.21 isn't out yet | 03:12 |
| superm1 | just a testing release of it | 03:12 |
| superm1 | but otherwise see mythbuntu.org | 03:13 |
| superm1 | weekly builds for trunk | 03:13 |
| MythbuntuGuest61 | So be expecting it in April with 8.04 final release is made | 03:13 |
| superm1 | yeah | 03:13 |
| MythbuntuGuest61 | Upon updating, will I need to redo any settings or will it retain the changes/installations made. | 03:14 |
| npurciful | hey superm1 ever get amd64 to build | 03:15 |
| superm1 | npurciful, no i didnt | 03:16 |
| superm1 | MythbuntuGuest61, ideally no changes necessary, but we'll see | 03:16 |
| MythbuntuGuest61 | GREAT!!! thanks superml... | 03:17 |
| MythbuntuGuest61 | Anyone have information on getting Snapstream Firefly working. Found there was a bug through threads Ive read. | 03:17 |
| npurciful | that sucks, i spent half a day trying to get k3b to rip dvds, i guess the pkg was compiled with out libdvdread. | 03:18 |
| MythbuntuGuest61 | Im sorta glad there are no shows airing right now... Have my Mythbox in "broken" status. Coming online again here soon, but didnt miss anything. | 03:19 |
| npurciful | anyhow after i recompiled it it could read the drive and screwed with it and reallise no programs could read it | 03:19 |
| rhpot1991 | npurciful: that happens a lot on ubuntu, did you check an alternative source like medibuntu? | 03:19 |
| MythbuntuGuest61 | Hows that for positive thinking, glass half full... | 03:19 |
| superm1 | regionset npurciful | 03:19 |
| npurciful | yeah, did that didnt fix it, i ended up rebooting problem solved | 03:20 |
| rhpot1991 | sounds like it might not have applied till you restarted | 03:21 |
| npurciful | what is the difference between apt-get source --compile k3b and apt-get source -b k3b | 03:21 |
| npurciful | something i spent 2hour trying to fix the dang thing | 03:22 |
| lime4x4 | anyone know the command to reconfigure xorg from the terminal? | 03:28 |
| timmememe | ted | 03:28 |
| rhpot1991 | sudo dpkg-reconfigure xorg | 03:28 |
| lime4x4 | hanks for the life of me i couldn't remember it | 03:29 |
| rhpot1991 | sure np | 03:29 |
| npurciful | that one used to kill me, didnt know how to fix it so i had to reinstall | 03:29 |
| lime4x4 | updated my mythbox to the hardy version and it killed my xserver | 03:30 |
| rhpot1991 | prob a problem with the restricted driver | 03:30 |
| rhpot1991 | make sure thats installed | 03:30 |
| lime4x4 | that's what i'm thinking...I've been running hardy on my main box for about a month now and thought it would be fun to upgrade my mythbox as well...lol | 03:31 |
| npurciful | ahh, thinkin | 03:31 |
| lime4x4 | well hardy been pretty stable on my main machine so i thought what the hell | 03:32 |
| npurciful | lol, thinks todo when your bored google your name, Results 1 - 10 of about 7,600 for n***** purciful | 03:34 |
| lime4x4 | plus the hardy mythtv front-end didn't want to play nice with the gutsy back-end server | 03:34 |
| npurciful | err, damn writers union, i am force to record and playback reruns, it just isnt right | 03:38 |
| superm1 | lime4x4, yeah hardy is switched to 0.21 | 03:42 |
| * npurciful is giving in to watching livetv! | 03:47 | |
| OpenMedia | Hey superm1 Sorry I missed you yesterday | 04:04 |
| superm1 | hey OpenMedia | 04:04 |
| superm1 | what's up? | 04:04 |
| OpenMedia | superm1: have you had any requests for AAC support on your builds? | 04:25 |
| superm1 | OpenMedia, hardy builds have it | 04:25 |
| OpenMedia | It appears NZ and Norway have standardised on HE-AAC for their audio. | 04:25 |
| OpenMedia | Problem is faad2 needs patching to support it. | 04:26 |
| superm1 | how bad is the patch? | 04:26 |
| superm1 | and what does it break? | 04:26 |
| OpenMedia | Reasonably nasty i'm afraid | 04:26 |
| superm1 | does it break anything though? | 04:26 |
| OpenMedia | They still aren't sure. | 04:27 |
| OpenMedia | I might dist-upgrade a test environment to hardy | 04:27 |
| OpenMedia | I've been playing with the weekly SVN releases on gutsy. | 04:27 |
| superm1 | well as of this last week, faac should be on gutsy weekly too i believe | 04:28 |
| superm1 | (it bases from hardy source packages) | 04:28 |
| OpenMedia | Ok i'll take a look and see how bad the LATM patch for faad2 looks. | 04:28 |
| OpenMedia | So have you started work yet? | 04:29 |
| superm1 | yeah | 04:29 |
| OpenMedia | Sufficient shock to the system? | 04:29 |
| npurciful | is the a limit on the amount of jobs mytharchive can handle because the new rip button is disappeared | 04:29 |
| superm1 | actually not too bad | 04:29 |
| OpenMedia | Got a bunch of talk submissions in for OSCON so I might make it to Portland again this year. Have to wait and see. | 04:30 |
| superm1 | i'm not thinking i'll be headed back this year, but time will tell i suppose | 04:31 |

| MythbuntuGuest86 | Hi | 07:26 |
| MythbuntuGuest86 | Just wanted to tell that the torrentlinks on the website does not work | 07:26 |
| MythbuntuGuest86 | And it seems that it has been a while http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=678429 | 07:28 |
| levander | I'm trying to grok my head around how mythdvd works. Is there no way to rip all the titles, then have them show up as one video under "Watch Videos"? | 12:32 |
| rhpot1991 | levander: rip it as an iso | 13:47 |
| MythbuntuGuest67 | is Mythtv.org down? | 14:36 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | seems like it | 14:37 |
| MythbuntuGuest67 | ok thanks | 14:37 |
| beakster | hi | 18:26 |
| npurciful | ahh, what is going on in the land of myth today | 18:26 |
| beakster | i've just ordered some new hardware and I'm planning to install mythbuntu on it | 18:27 |
| beakster | should i use 7.10 or the new alpha one? | 18:27 |
| npurciful | that would be your call | 18:28 |
| npurciful | are you just wanting the new version of myth? | 18:28 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | beakster: depends how stable you want it to be | 18:28 |
| beakster | well im running a pretty old one just now | 18:29 |
| beakster | 6.06 with 0.20 something | 18:29 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | well 7.10 would give you pretty much the same version of mythtv | 18:29 |
| beakster | i want it stable, yes, but what does the new alpha offer that 7.10 doesnt? | 18:29 |
| npurciful | rhpot1991 does mythdvd or archive whatever it is convert you 16:9 to 4:3 | 18:29 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | the trunk builds have some nice new features, but at the cost of some things not working while everything gets worked out | 18:30 |
| beakster | hmm | 18:30 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | npurciful: don't think so, when I use it I rip to an iso and its just like having the dvd in | 18:30 |
| beakster | ok, i think i'll probably stick to 7.10 | 18:30 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | playback with xine so I get menus and all | 18:30 |
| npurciful | ah i am trying to convert to xvid | 18:30 |
| beakster | so i guess everyone here reckons im better with mythbuntu than ubuntu + myth? | 18:31 |
| npurciful | and it is screwing, the whole point of having widescreen | 18:31 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | I can't speak for that other than I've done it once or twice will testing | 18:31 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | beakster: depends what you want to use it for, end results are close to the same | 18:31 |
| beakster | and ease of setup? | 18:31 |
| npurciful | i use kubuntu desktop + mythtv svn | 18:31 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | mythbuntu setup will walk you through most everything | 18:31 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | so if you want easy, do that | 18:32 |
| beakster | yeah, reckon i will | 18:32 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | if you are used to installing ubuntu, or have it already instealled, its just as easy to just add mythtv or mythbuntu to it | 18:32 |
| beakster | and i assume athlon x2 version is best for an athlon x2? | 18:32 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | amd64 you mean? | 18:32 |
| beakster | yeah | 18:32 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | I do believe so | 18:33 |
| beakster | oh, and, at the moment i have a / partition and a /video partition. the video partition holds my recordings, games, videos, music etc. | 18:33 |
| beakster | can i keep that partion and use it with a fresh install of mythbuntu? | 18:33 |
| beakster | so i dont loose my music etc | 18:33 |
| Tuv0k | this mornings update fix my mythweb | 18:34 |
| Tuv0k | thanks! | 18:34 |
| npurciful | what was wrong with myth web | 18:35 |
| Tuv0k | it was spitting an apache error | 18:36 |
| npurciful | rhpot1991_laptop: i think i am going to just rip to iso, instead of chapters and titles, it is a real pain | 18:36 |
| npurciful | Tuv0k: oh okay | 18:36 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | npurciful: I enjoy ripping as iso, I also have a 1TB mybook to use for that purpose so I don't care about file sizes | 18:37 |
| Tuv0k | http://www.mythtv.org/pipermail/mythtv-users/2008-January/209451.html | 18:37 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | so it all depends on your needs | 18:37 |
| npurciful | rhpot1991_laptop: i am getting my 1TB drive soon a long with a HDhomerun | 18:38 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | I may be in the market for a HDHR soon | 18:39 |
| npurciful | hum, i was just doing some calculations and the avg. life span of a recording on my computer is 10 days | 18:46 |
| npurciful | random information | 18:47 |
| npurciful | crap, MTD shut down rip to iso | 19:06 |
| npurciful | 12:55:29: Error: DVDISOCopyThread dvd device read error | 19:06 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | npurciful: prob have a copy protected disc | 19:08 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | or a scratched one | 19:08 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | MTD is picky | 19:08 |
| npurciful | going commandline on it | 19:09 |
| npurciful | ddr_help | 19:09 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | what dvd out of curiosity? | 19:09 |
| npurciful | Alice in Chain Unplugged | 19:10 |
| npurciful | from 1996 | 19:10 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | was just wondering if its one I've done before, to confirm it | 19:10 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | isn't though | 19:10 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | scratched maybe? | 19:10 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | I've had a problem with an old jeff buckly concert dvd as well, assumed that it wasn't done to standards or something | 19:11 |
| npurciful | yeah it may have a surface defect | 19:11 |
| joecurlee | Hi, i've been trying to use MythTV and it's not working quite right with my capture card... I thought about installing mythbuntu... but is there differences in hardware support between the two? Also can Mythbuntu run concurrently with Ubuntu or is a separate installation? | 19:13 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | you can add mythbuntu to ubuntu | 19:15 |
| npurciful | hardware support is the sma | 19:15 |
| npurciful | same | 19:15 |
| joecurlee | ah i see thanks | 19:15 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | hardware support should be the same provided you actually had working linux support before | 19:15 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | basic rule is make it work in linux before you make it work in mythtv | 19:15 |
| joecurlee | yes linux is working fine right now except for one thing... my capture card. anyone know if the Pinnacle PCTV HD Card (800i) is supported by mythtv? I was able to get video (non-HD) but no audio... everything here claims it should work: http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Pinnacle_PCTV_HD_Card_%28800i%29 | 19:17 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | joecurlee: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Pinnacle_PCTV_HD_Card_%28800i%29 | 19:18 |
| joecurlee | yea that's pretty much the same page as the linuxtv one... (the making it work section is similar)... i followed all instructions exactly but still get no solid results | 19:19 |
| joecurlee | actually the possible conflicts on that page sound very similar to mine | 19:19 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | check the mythtv-users mailing list or something, best bet would be to find someone else who has that card | 19:20 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | http://www.mythbuntu.com/existing-ubuntu is how to add mythbuntu to ubuntu | 19:20 |
| joecurlee | cool, will do. thanks | 19:20 |
| joecurlee | is there a recommended card that has a history of working very well? | 19:21 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | joecurlee: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=570204 | 19:22 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | talks about tuners in there | 19:22 |
| joecurlee | cool. thanks again. back to work now :) | 19:22 |
| npurciful | i love how you can move file while your writing them to i move the wrong file copying iso to file and selected and move it while it was still transfering, and it is still copying | 19:24 |
| npurciful | now if i can get 5.1 sound working i but behappy | 20:13 |

| Wiiilmaa | Hello! | 21:01 |
| Wiiilmaa | I have a problem with my mythbuntu installation. I cannot convert recordings. conversion jobs always fail with status 247, the Backend log states errors like: mpegts Parser not found for Codec Id 94211. I saw many people mentioning this problem on the internet, but found no solution so far. Maybe there is someone here being able to help me? | 21:07 |
| lime4x4 | how do i adjust playback for a widescreen tv? When in mythtv front-end it uses my whole tv screen but when watching tv or a video it shows up as 4:3 ratio | 23:41 |
| tgm4883 | did you set the frontend aspect ratio? | 23:42 |
| lime4x4 | yes to 16:9 | 23:43 |
| tgm4883 | are you watching SD? | 23:44 |
| foxbuntu | lime4x4, is it SD or HD content and if its HD content what res is it? | 23:45 |
| foxbuntu | tgm4883, afternoon | 23:45 |
| tgm4883 | hi foxbuntu | 23:45 |
| lime4x4 | it's sd content | 23:45 |
| tgm4883 | foxbuntu, do you know if there were any changes to lm-sensors in hardy? my conky no longer works :( | 23:45 |
| foxbuntu | SD is all 4:# lime4x4 | 23:45 |
| tgm4883 | lime4x4, well then it is showing up properly | 23:45 |
| foxbuntu | 4:3 | 23:46 |
| tgm4883 | 4:# content rocks | 23:46 |
| foxbuntu | lol | 23:46 |
| tgm4883 | way better than 4:3 | 23:46 |
| foxbuntu | indeed | 23:46 |
| tgm4883 | you could stretch it, but then everyone would look fat | 23:46 |
| * foxbuntu smacks tgm4883 with a stick | 23:46 | |
| tgm4883 | and the camera already adds 10 lbs | 23:46 |
| lime4x4 | is there a way to convert it to 16:9?? When i watch regular tv bypassing the mythtv box it uses the full screen | 23:47 |
| foxbuntu | lime4x4, that sounds like you have it set on your TV | 23:48 |
| foxbuntu | why would you want to stretch 4:3 to 16:9 | 23:48 |
| foxbuntu | ? | 23:48 |
| tgm4883 | yea, sounds like you have your tv set to stretch 4:3 content to full screen | 23:48 |
| tgm4883 | you can bring up the menu during playback and zoom-stretch it | 23:48 |
| lime4x4 | i hate black bars...lol regualr cable doesn't look bad on my tv when strecthed | 23:49 |
| tgm4883 | lime4x4, you don't work for TNT do you? | 23:49 |
| foxbuntu | lol | 23:49 |
| lime4x4 | nope | 23:49 |
| lime4x4 | actually i'm a chevy tech | 23:49 |
| * tgm4883 despises TNT for their "HD" content | 23:49 | |
| * tgm4883 despises NBC too | 23:49 | |
| foxbuntu | NBC is getting better though | 23:49 |
| tgm4883 | and DirecTV too | 23:49 |
| tgm4883 | I don't despise NBC because of their HD content, I despise them because of their coverage of the 2004 Olympic Bronze medal Basketball game | 23:50 |
| lime4x4 | and i'm connecting the mythbox to the tv thru dvi | 23:50 |
| tgm4883 | lime4x4, i'm not sure you can tell it to always stretch 4:3 content, but you can tell it to do it each time | 23:51 |
| foxbuntu | tgm4883, thats a rather specific reason :) | 23:51 |
| tgm4883 | yea | 23:51 |
| tgm4883 | but it burns me | 23:51 |
| tgm4883 | i was so mad | 23:51 |
| tgm4883 | I still watch NBC, i just hate them at the same time | 23:52 |
| foxbuntu | tgm4883, if you change the priority on a tuners in the BE does it limit the reocrdings...so when you set a program to record on any channel and its on HD and SD at the same time it will only record on one? | 23:53 |
| tgm4883 | yea it should only record on one | 23:53 |
| tgm4883 | i've haven't really tinkered around with doing it that way though | 23:54 |
| foxbuntu | I haven't either...its just my soultion to something in the forums | 23:54 |
| tgm4883 | F me | 23:56 |
| foxbuntu | ? | 23:56 |
| tgm4883 | where is root trash stored? | 23:56 |
| foxbuntu | root trash | 23:56 |
| tgm4883 | i'm capturing some stuff in kino, and i couldn't get it to work so i had to sudo kino, and now my / is full | 23:56 |
| foxbuntu | oops | 23:57 |
| tgm4883 | so i rm'ed the files, but it's still full | 23:57 |
| foxbuntu | rm shouldn't trash them | 23:57 |
| tgm4883 | hmm | 23:58 |
| tgm4883 | then whats happening? | 23:58 |
| foxbuntu | df -a? | 23:58 |
| tgm4883 | /dev/sda1 10570748 10566744 0 100% / | 23:58 |
| foxbuntu | do you have a seperate /var/log? | 23:58 |
| tgm4883 | sec | 23:58 |
| foxbuntu | or all mounted in one? | 23:58 |
| tgm4883 | just seperate /home | 23:59 |
| tgm4883 | ah | 23:59 |
| tgm4883 | fixed | 23:59 |
| foxbuntu | ah... | 23:59 |
| foxbuntu | what was it? | 23:59 |
| tgm4883 | strange | 23:59 |
| tgm4883 | I had deleted the files, but since kino was still open, they were still taking up space. As soon as i closed kino, it deleted them off the drive (i could hear the drive deleting them) | 23:59 |
