[00:01] <npurciful> i have been sittin here trying to get dvdread support to work in k3b i guess there is a bug, so i apt-get source --compile k3b, install it and it kinda work it says cant read dvd. appearntly dvd:rip foobard access to the device
[00:01] <npurciful> wasted like 2hours
[02:22] <MythbuntuGuest68> Need help with nvidia drivers...  Was having issues with twinview, changed the driver and now I dont have twinview and limited with the Monitor,
[02:24] <MythbuntuGuest68> Taking forever for MythTV to load and LiveTV wont come on; bad drivers I suspect.
[02:47] <egghead3> trying to switch from internal player to vlc, but when i use vlc inside of mythfrontend i loose sound, is there a file i have to modify?
[03:12] <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
[03:13] <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
[03:14] <MythbuntuGuest61> Upon updating, will I need to redo any settings or will it retain the changes/installations made.
[03:15] <npurciful> hey superm1 ever get amd64 to build
[03:16] <superm1> npurciful, no i didnt
[03:16] <superm1> MythbuntuGuest61, ideally no changes necessary, but we'll see
[03:17] <MythbuntuGuest61> GREAT!!!  thanks superml...
[03:17] <MythbuntuGuest61> Anyone have information on getting Snapstream Firefly working.  Found there was a bug through threads Ive read.
[03:18] <npurciful> that sucks, i spent half a day trying to get k3b to rip dvds, i guess the pkg was compiled with out libdvdread.
[03:19] <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
[03:20] <npurciful> yeah,  did that didnt fix it, i ended up rebooting problem solved
[03:21] <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
[03:22] <npurciful> something i spent 2hour trying to fix the dang thing
[03:28] <lime4x4> anyone know the command to reconfigure xorg from the terminal?
[03:28] <timmememe> ted
[03:28] <rhpot1991> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xorg
[03:29] <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
[03:30] <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
[03:31] <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
[03:32] <lime4x4> well hardy been pretty stable on my main machine so i thought what the hell
[03:34] <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
[03:38] <npurciful> err, damn writers union, i am force to record and playback reruns, it just isnt right
[03:42] <superm1> lime4x4, yeah hardy is switched to 0.21
[03:47]  * npurciful is giving in to watching livetv!
[04:04] <OpenMedia> Hey superm1 Sorry I missed you yesterday
[04:04] <superm1> hey OpenMedia
[04:04] <superm1> what's up?
[04:25] <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.
[04:26] <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?
[04:27] <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.
[04:28] <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.
[04:29] <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
[04:30] <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.
[04:31] <superm1> i'm not thinking i'll be headed back this year, but time will tell i suppose
[04:37] <WcktKlwn> anyone good with NAS drives?
[05:19] <Tuv0k>  /etc/init.d/mythtv-backend restart

[05:20] <Tuv0k> error creating /home/mythtv/.qt?
[05:21] <superm1> that hasn't happened for ages

[05:35] <Tuv0k> mythweb broken for meas well
[05:36] <Tuv0k> the qt file is odd, even if I add it, I get that minor error
[05:38] <rhpot1991> your system out of date or something?
[05:40] <WcktKlwn> mythweb shows channels on the wrong number for me
[05:48] <Tuv0k> rhpot1991, negative
[05:48] <Tuv0k> after these most recent updates mythweb broke for me
[05:49] <Tuv0k> and I can't get a frontend to connect to the BE
[05:49] <Tuv0k> the .20 FE connects to the .21 BE
[05:49] <WcktKlwn> actually, somehow my mythweb fixed itself
[05:49] <Tuv0k> but no .21 FE to .21 BE
[05:50] <Tuv0k> but I', Hardy, so, I may be screwn
[05:51] <rhpot1991> what are you running, gutsy, hardy, weekly builds?
 but I', Hardy, so, I may be screwn
 what are you running, gutsy, hardy, weekly builds?
[06:14] <Tuv0k> Hardy
[06:15] <Tuv0k> nothing exotic
[07:26] <MythbuntuGuest86> Hi
[07:26] <MythbuntuGuest86> Just wanted to tell that the torrentlinks on the website does not work
[07:28] <MythbuntuGuest86> And it seems that it has been a while http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=678429
[12:32] <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"?
[13:47] <rhpot1991> levander: rip it as an iso
[14:36] <MythbuntuGuest67> is Mythtv.org down?
[14:37] <rhpot1991_laptop> seems like it
[14:37] <MythbuntuGuest67> ok thanks
[18:26] <beakster> hi
[18:26] <npurciful> ahh, what is going on in the land of myth today
[18:27] <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?
[18:28] <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
[18:29] <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
[18:30] <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
[18:31] <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
[18:32] <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
[18:33] <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
[18:34] <Tuv0k> this mornings update fix my mythweb
[18:34] <Tuv0k> thanks!
[18:35] <npurciful> what was wrong with myth web
[18:36] <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
[18:37] <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
[18:38] <npurciful> rhpot1991_laptop: i am getting my 1TB drive soon a long with a HDhomerun
[18:39] <rhpot1991_laptop> I may be in the market for a HDHR soon
[18:46] <npurciful> hum, i was just doing some calculations and the avg. life span of a recording on my computer is 10 days
[18:47] <npurciful> random information
[19:06] <npurciful> crap, MTD shut down rip to iso
[19:06] <npurciful> 12:55:29: Error: DVDISOCopyThread dvd device read error
[19:08] <rhpot1991_laptop> npurciful: prob have a copy protected disc
[19:08] <rhpot1991_laptop> or a scratched one
[19:08] <rhpot1991_laptop> MTD is picky
[19:09] <npurciful> going commandline on it
[19:09] <npurciful> ddr_help
[19:09] <rhpot1991_laptop> what dvd out of curiosity?
[19:10] <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?
[19:11] <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
[19:13] <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?
[19:15] <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
[19:17] <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
[19:18] <rhpot1991_laptop> joecurlee: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Pinnacle_PCTV_HD_Card_%28800i%29
[19:19] <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
[19:20] <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
[19:21] <joecurlee> is there a recommended card that has a history of working very well?
[19:22] <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 :)
[19:24] <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
[20:13] <npurciful> now if i can get 5.1 sound working i but behappy
[21:01] <Wiiilmaa> Hello!
[21:07] <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?
[23:41] <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
[23:42] <tgm4883> did you set the frontend aspect ratio?
[23:43] <lime4x4> yes to 16:9
[23:44] <tgm4883> are you watching SD?
[23:45] <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
[23:46] <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
[23:47] <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
[23:48] <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
[23:49] <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
[23:50] <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
[23:51] <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
[23:52] <tgm4883> I still watch NBC, i just hate them at the same time
[23:53] <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
[23:54] <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
[23:56] <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
[23:57] <foxbuntu> oops
[23:57] <tgm4883> so i rm'ed the files, but it's still full
[23:57] <foxbuntu> rm shouldn't trash them
[23:58] <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?
[23:59] <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)
