| r0dzilla | hello | 00:20 |
|---|---|---|
| r0dzilla | using a mythbuntu backend and a frontend on kubuntu installed via the mythbuntu control center | 00:21 |
| r0dzilla | just got through updating the mythbuntu backend server | 00:21 |
| r0dzilla | now frontend won't connect saying protocol version mismatch (frontend=31,backend=40) | 00:22 |
| r0dzilla | but there seems to be no updates for kubuntu | 00:22 |
| rhpot1991 | r0dzilla: your frontend and backend version don't match | 00:29 |
| rhpot1991 | dpkg -l myth* |grep ^ii | 00:30 |
| rhpot1991 | see which one is different then apt-get install it and it should get fixed | 00:30 |
| rhpot1991 | you will need to do the same for mythvideo if you had it installed previously as well | 00:30 |
| r0dzilla | thanks for the tip! | 00:52 |
| MUS4SHIII | Hi all | 01:40 |
| MUS4SHIII | Anyone here know how to make MythTV stop filling up the TV directory with junk? I've only recorded 1 show and I've got 33 GB worth of other misc junk in there. | 01:42 |
| MUS4SHIII | hello? | 01:42 |
| MUS4SHIII | Anyone here? Even if you can't help, say something so I know Pidgin isn't broken or something. | 01:44 |
| MUS4SHIII | Hey Superm1, thanks for the help the other night. | 01:45 |
| superm1 | no prob | 01:45 |
| superm1 | got all working? | 01:45 |
| MUS4SHIII | Yep | 01:45 |
| superm1 | great :) | 01:46 |
| superm1 | MUS4SHIII, so for your part, if you see some folks you can help now, please do so :) | 01:46 |
| MUS4SHIII | Now that it is working though, I'm getting extra stuff in my TV folder. I've only recorded 1 show, but I've got like 30 GB of misc junk in there. I know it is supposed to do that, but is there any way to make the livetv files expire quicker than 1 day. | 01:47 |
| MUS4SHIII | I will help with anything I can help with :) | 01:47 |
| MUS4SHIII | gotta pay it forward | 01:47 |
| superm1 | yeah exactly. | 01:47 |
| superm1 | i'm not sure about making it expire that much faster than a day though | 01:48 |
| superm1 | if the space ends up being needed, it will expire it imm | 01:48 |
| MUS4SHIII | That drive is not dedicated to Myth though. I just don't want to have any problems with not being able to download things without cleaning up myth files. | 01:49 |
| MUS4SHIII | Other than that I'm happy so far with MythTV. I would like a couple more features, but overall pretty good for a non commercial app. | 01:50 |
| superm1 | then just make sure you set the "free space" for it to keep on that drive fairly high | 01:50 |
| MUS4SHIII | ahh. Is that set in the backend setup? | 01:50 |
| superm1 | i forget, sorry. it's been ages since i had to change that option | 01:50 |
| MUS4SHIII | I'll find it. | 01:50 |
| superm1 | like literally 2 years :) | 01:50 |
| MUS4SHIII | I'm brand new to MythTV. My MCE2k5 was rebooting randomly and I got tired of messing with it. No probs since going to Ubuntu | 01:51 |
| MUS4SHIII | I'm over windows now | 01:51 |
| superm1 | once you get used to finding things and working with it a little bit, you'll wonder why u didnt switch sooner | 01:54 |
| MUS4SHIII | Now I've got to get the frontend on my Xbox. Until then I'll play from XBMC, but I need to get the app that renames the mythtv files with the name of the show to make them easier to find across the network. | 01:55 |
| superm1 | already exists... :) | 01:56 |
| superm1 | mythtvfs | 01:56 |
| superm1 | will do it for you | 01:56 |
| superm1 | it makes a fuse filesystem | 01:56 |
| MUS4SHIII | thanks, that was what I was looking for | 01:56 |
| MUS4SHIII | Hi again | 02:42 |
| MUS4SHIII | having mythtvfs issues in the fstab. works well with sudo mythtvfs -0 host=127.0.0.1 /media/Storage/Media/RecordedTV /mnt/mythtvfs but not working with the following fstab entry: mythtvfs#/media/Storage/Media/RecordedTV /mnt/mythtvfs fuse user,host=127.0.0.1 0 0 | 02:43 |
| MUS4SHIII | hi all | 02:56 |
| Erik_ | Anyone know which remote type to choose in Mythbuntu's setup for a PVT-150 remote? | 03:08 |
| Erik_ | Err, Mythbuntu 7.10, fwiw. | 03:09 |
| tuvook | Error at /usr/share/mythtv/mythweb/modules/settings/tmpl/lite/welcome.phError at /usr/share/mythtv/mythweb/modules/settings/tmpl/lite/welcome.phError at /usr/share/mythtv/mythweb/modules/settings/tmpl/lite/welcome.php, line 29: | 03:10 |

| tuvook | sotty | 03:10 |
| tuvook | sorry | 03:10 |
| MUS4SHIII | Hi everyone. Does anyone have any experience with mythtvfs? | 03:38 |
| MUS4SHIII | hello? | 03:41 |
| Erik_ | You may have to wait a while to get an intelligent response... :/ | 03:41 |
| MUS4SHIII | looks that way | 03:42 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | Can someone point me to a guide to setting up Samba on my Backend... I am a newbie so need a good walkthrough | 03:42 |
| MUS4SHIII | at least I know I'm not the only one here now. | 03:42 |
| Erik_ | You are not alone. I just didn't see the point in cluttering things up with my ignorance... :/ | 03:42 |
| MUS4SHIII | fair nuff | 03:42 |
| Erik_ | ;) | 03:42 |
| r0dzilla | rhpot1991, you had me do a dpkg -l myth* | grep ^ii to see what packages were different between my mythbuntu backend system and the frontend on my kubuntu system, it seems the backend is .21 and frontend is .20 | 03:43 |
| r0dzilla | but when I try to upgrade the ones on kubuntu that are old, apt says they are newest available | 03:43 |
| rhpot1991 | MythbuntuGuest40: if you enable samba sharing via MCC it shares out the default locations automagically | 03:43 |
| rhpot1991 | r0dzilla: did you do a sudo apt-get update? | 03:44 |
| r0dzilla | yes, in fact adept just finished doing upgrades for kereboes | 03:44 |
| Erik_ | r0dzilla: you have to enable unsupported, newer *something or another updates in synaptic to get 0.21. | 03:45 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | Hey rhpot, you got me into this mess... I talked to a friend of mine and he suggested Samba over NFS. You make it sound SOOO easy... A guide or walkthtough would be helpful. | 03:46 |
| MUS4SHIII | can anyone help me with mythtvfs fstab issue? | 03:46 |
| rhpot1991 | MythbuntuGuest40: smaba != NFS, they are 2 differen't things | 03:46 |
| rhpot1991 | let me show you the nfs guide I showed him | 03:46 |
| rhpot1991 | Erik_: he got the 0.21 backend from backports, so he should have them enabled and the frontend should be there | 03:47 |
| rhpot1991 | r0dzilla: I'm assuming you didn't add any of the mythbuntu sources to your apt, and this is just the plain kubuntu sources right? | 03:47 |
| Erik_ | Ah. I suspected he might have them on different machines. :o | 03:48 |
| rhpot1991 | MythbuntuGuest40: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo | 03:48 |
| r0dzilla | right | 03:48 |
| rhpot1991 | r0dzilla: are they on the same box or different? | 03:48 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | So, you suggest I use NFS over Samba? I truly just need the easiest way to get it done. Will follow your lead here. | 03:48 |
| rhpot1991 | MythbuntuGuest40: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpSamba?highlight=(samba) | 03:49 |
| r0dzilla | different | 03:49 |
| MUS4SHIII | anyone have any fstab experience with mythtvfs? | 03:49 |
| rhpot1991 | MythbuntuGuest40: depends on the situation, samba can share out to windows hosts if you need that | 03:49 |
| rhpot1991 | MythbuntuGuest40: nfs only shares to other unix boxes | 03:49 |
| rhpot1991 | r0dzilla: check the box with 0.21 for your /etc/apt/sources.lists | 03:49 |
| rhpot1991 | find the lines (2 of them) that say backports | 03:49 |
| r0dzilla | ok I got it to come up by turning on unsupported | 03:49 |
| rhpot1991 | and make sure those are on the other box | 03:49 |
| rhpot1991 | then upgrade away | 03:50 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | rhpot: that is what I will be needing... So Samba is the correct application here. Thank you for the link! | 03:50 |
| Erik_ | rodzille: in order to get 0.21 on my Kubuntu 7.10 box, I had to go into "Adept Manager", click "Adept", "Mange Repositories", "Updates" tab, "Unsupported updates" check box. | 03:50 |
| Erik_ | For what little it's worth... :/ | 03:50 |
| r0dzilla | did just that now I'm waiting for updates to finish | 03:50 |
| rhpot1991 | MythbuntuGuest40: like I said if you enable samba via MCC, then it shares out the default locations automagically and you an modify them easily | 03:50 |
| Erik_ | So, anyone here have a PVR-150 card and know which remote to select in Mythbuntu 7.10's setup utility? I've screwed around with it so much now, I'm not sure what the heck I killed... :( | 03:51 |
| * r0dzilla is getting ready to buy a pair of hd-5500's | 03:52 | |
| MUS4SHIII | can anyone help with my fstab? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60120/ | 03:52 |
| * Erik_ needs to show the wife that he can keep this thing running reliably before he'll get to spend any more money... | 03:52 | |
| rhpot1991 | MUS4SHIII: if you don't get help here tonight try to forums, that is something that not everyone uses so you might have better luck there | 03:54 |
| r0dzilla | looks like the downloads are gonna take a while, gonna get some sleep in the meantime | 03:55 |
| r0dzilla | good night everyone | 03:55 |
| r0dzilla | and thanks for the help | 03:55 |
| Erik_ | Night. :) | 03:55 |
| rhpot1991 | Erik_: let me look it up, that should work easily | 03:55 |
| Erik_ | Yes, it should. And, it was until I screwed around with my lircrc files. I switched them back, but in all the screwing around, I'm not sure if I'm fighting with having the right remote selected, or if I have more problems with my lircrc file... :( | 03:56 |
| Erik_ | There was also an update in the middle of all my screwing around that might have something to do with it. I'm just wanting to make sure I have the right remote selected before I bother people with anything more in depth... :/ | 03:57 |
| Erik_ | FWIW, this is the remote: http://lirc.sourceforge.net/remotes/hauppauge/PVR-350.jpg | 03:58 |
| rhpot1991 | same one I have/had | 03:58 |
| rhpot1991 | "hauppauge TV card" | 03:59 |
| MUS4SHIII | can anyone help with mythtvfs | 04:00 |
| Erik_ | Roger. AFK for a sec... | 04:00 |
| Erik_ | Remote now set to "Hauppauge TV card" and still no joy. I believe the fact that the only "lirc" device I have in /dev is /dev/lircd. No /dev/lirc0, etc. Any thoughts on what I could have screwed up? | 04:10 |
| rhpot1991 | Erik_: do this | 04:12 |
| Erik_ | Standing by. | 04:12 |
| rhpot1991 | sudo /etc/init.d/lirc reload | 04:12 |
| rhpot1991 | sudo /etc/init.d/lirc restart | 04:13 |
| Erik_ | "ls /dev/lir*" still returns only "/dev/lircd". :( | 04:13 |
| Erik_ | (As root.) | 04:13 |
| rhpot1991 | ok hmmm | 04:13 |
| rhpot1991 | can you restart the box? | 04:14 |
| Erik_ | Of course. And, I have, several times. However, I would be happy to do so, again. | 04:14 |
| rhpot1991 | I've seen that clear up some module problems, its worth a shot that way we are working with some freshness | 04:14 |
| Erik_ | I haven't made any changes to the config, since I changed the remote type to "Hauppauge TV card" and rebooted... | 04:14 |
| Erik_ | Well, it certainly can't hurt anything... Rebooting the box. | 04:15 |
| rhpot1991 | alright do that then check for lirc devices again | 04:15 |
| rhpot1991 | after that I can have you pastebin some configs if its still not working | 04:15 |
| Erik_ | Roger. | 04:16 |
| Erik_ | It's coming back up, now. The box is pathetically underpowered and slow... :( | 04:16 |
| Erik_ | Celeron 1.1GHz. :o | 04:17 |
| rhpot1991 | thats fine for SD with a hauppauge card | 04:18 |
| rhpot1991 | get ready to cry when you try to do HD though | 04:18 |
| Erik_ | Indeed. So long as a commercial flagging job isn't running... ;) | 04:18 |
| Erik_ | Oh, I am well aware daddy's going to have to crack open the wallet to go to HD... | 04:19 |
| rhpot1991 | commercial flagging while playing back a problem, or just in general? | 04:19 |
| MUS4SHIII | anyone know anything about mythtvfs? | 04:19 |
| Erik_ | Still only the /dev/lircd . :( | 04:19 |
| rhpot1991 | !pastebing | Erik_ | 04:20 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about pastebing - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 04:20 |
| rhpot1991 | !pastebin | Erik_ | 04:20 |
| ubotu | Erik_: pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic) | 04:20 |
| Erik_ | Commercial flagging while watching live tv doesn't do well. | 04:20 |
| rhpot1991 | use that and paste in your /etc/lirc/hardware.conf file | 04:20 |
| rhpot1991 | Erik_: if you have an nvidia card you can enable XvMC which should help some with that | 04:20 |
| rhpot1991 | you lose color OSD's but playback is pretty good | 04:20 |
| Erik_ | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60123/ | 04:21 |
| Erik_ | This box is currently using an onboard video card... | 04:21 |
| Erik_ | More than anything, this is a proof of concept to get my wife to buy in to putting together a real box. | 04:21 |
| Erik_ | She's actually really happy with MythTV, at this point. She just wants to remote to work. I don't blame her. :) | 04:22 |
| tuvook | Erik_, what kind of remote? | 04:22 |
| Erik_ | The remote included with my Hauppauge PVR-150. | 04:23 |
| tuvook | I have the same | 04:23 |
| tuvook | you need to add a file to the firmware folder | 04:23 |
| Erik_ | FWIW, I've also reseated the plug in the back of the card several times... | 04:23 |
| tuvook | then it will work | 04:23 |
| rhpot1991 | Erik_: clarify which version of the OS and mythtv you are suing | 04:23 |
| tuvook | its simple | 04:23 |
| rhpot1991 | using | 04:23 |
| rhpot1991 | tuvook: he used MCC to load it, that should work right away | 04:23 |
| tuvook | no it wont | 04:23 |
| Erik_ | rhpot1991: Mythbuntu 7.10, fresh install off their CD as of a few days ago. | 04:23 |
| tuvook | MCC will not add the file he needs | 04:24 |
| tuvook | because its propietary | 04:24 |
| tuvook | this is a know issue | 04:24 |
| tuvook | Erik_, follow my instructions if you want it to work | 04:24 |
| Erik_ | Standing by. | 04:25 |
| tuvook | whether you use the blaster or not, you will need to add the blaster file to your kernel firmware directory | 04:25 |
| tuvook | I'll provide you with the name of the file | 04:25 |
| Erik_ | Where do I get the file, and where do I place it? | 04:25 |
| tuvook | one sec | 04:25 |
| tuvook | from haupagges site | 04:25 |
| tuvook | one sec | 04:25 |
| Erik_ | Phew. I was afriad you were going to tell me I needed the CD. :) | 04:25 |
| rhpot1991 | Erik_: do a dmesg| grep lirc and see if it complains about the firmware in there | 04:26 |
| tuvook | no | 04:26 |
| tuvook | don't bother | 04:26 |
| tuvook | it won't | 04:26 |
| Erik_ | [ 201.700070] lirc_dev: IR Remote Control driver registered, at major 61 | 04:26 |
| Erik_ | That's the only line returned. | 04:26 |
| rhpot1991 | alright go ahead with tuvook's instructions and see if that helps, I haven't done a fresh install on my box with that remote in ages so I didn't use MCC to set it up originally | 04:27 |
| Erik_ | I seem to recall, many moons ago, having to copy a Win32 binary of some sort from the driver CD to get this thing to work, WAY back when.. | 04:27 |
| Erik_ | Well, even if the thing explodes in a ball of fire, I'm not out much. Just some Scrubs episodes and my time... :) | 04:28 |
| tuvook | haup-ir-blaster.bin | 04:28 |
| tuvook | put that file in /lib/firmware/whatever_kernel_you_use | 04:29 |
| tuvook | you'll find your remote will work | 04:29 |
| tuvook | also make sure you have the ubuntu-modules package as well | 04:30 |
| tuvook | let me know how that goes | 04:30 |
| tuvook | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lirc/+bug/181871 | 04:31 |
| tuvook | I filed this "bug" a while ago | 04:31 |
| tuvook | thats why I'm very familiar with the matter | 04:32 |
| MUS4SHIII | anyone know anything about mythtvfs | 04:33 |
| Erik_ | Any hints on an easy way to lay hands on the .bin file? I downloaded their driver CD, and I'm rummaging through it... | 04:33 |
| rhpot1991 | tuvook: I'm fairly certain you don't need that bin to setup the remote (not sure about the blaster) | 04:33 |
| rhpot1991 | what with 2 of my boxes working with it and not having that | 04:33 |
| rhpot1991 | let me fire up this one and see if it is in here | 04:34 |
| tuvook | Erik_, looking for that file for you | 04:34 |
| tuvook | I have it, on a remote box, not this one | 04:34 |
| rhpot1991 | that or the way you configure the hauppauge remotes has changed since I last did it | 04:34 |
| MUS4SHIII | Can anyone help me with mythtvfs fstab problem? it mounts with "sudo mount -a" but won't auto mount on boot. | 04:35 |
| rhpot1991 | Erik_: do a lsmod |grep lirc and verify lirc_i2c and lirc_dev are loaded | 04:35 |
| Erik_ | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60126/ | 04:36 |
| rhpot1991 | that looks good | 04:37 |
| tuvook | Erik_, I have it for you | 04:38 |
| tuvook | can't remember where I originally downloaded it from | 04:38 |
| Erik_ | I Googled it. | 04:39 |
| Erik_ | Rebooting the box, again. | 04:39 |
| tuvook | you have the file? | 04:39 |
| Erik_ | Aye. Got it off blushingpenguin.com. | 04:39 |
| tuvook | very good! | 04:40 |
| Erik_ | Let's hope whoever Mark is didn't do something nasty to the file. :/ | 04:40 |
| tuvook | doubt it | 04:40 |
| tuvook | the file should be 302355 bytes | 04:40 |
| Erik_ | Hehe. I can't imagine the time he'd have to have on his hands to modify that thing in such a way as to cause problems. | 04:41 |
| Erik_ | 302,355 bytes. :) | 04:41 |
| Erik_ | Looks like we have the same file. :D | 04:41 |
| tuvook | L) | 04:41 |
| tuvook | :) | 04:41 |
| Erik_ | Ugh. | 04:44 |
| tuvook | no way | 04:45 |
| tuvook | did you eun irw? | 04:45 |
| Erik_ | Believe me, I wish I had good news... :( | 04:45 |
| tuvook | run | 04:45 |
| tuvook | run irw and see what happens? | 04:45 |
| Erik_ | I get "connect: Connection refused" when I run irw. | 04:45 |
| tuvook | ok | 04:45 |
| rhpot1991 | no lirc0 in your /dev? | 04:45 |
| Erik_ | I want to say that's an improvement. If I recall correctly, it had just been dumping me back to the command prompt with NO output. | 04:46 |
| rhpot1991 | Erik_: double check that the IR cord is plugged in, mine has a weird little cut out of it that has to be turned near the top to go all the way in | 04:46 |
| Erik_ | "ls /dev/lir*" returns only "/dev/lircd". | 04:46 |
| tuvook | it is an improvement, I go tthat too | 04:46 |
| === swqws is now known as a1fa_ | ||
| Erik_ | Alright. Lemme see if I can find the cutout... | 04:46 |
| tuvook | mine is weird like that as well | 04:47 |
| tuvook | push it all the way in | 04:47 |
| tuvook | is the file in the correct location? | 04:47 |
| tuvook | and make sure the ubuntu-modules I forget the correct name for the package | 04:48 |
| tuvook | is installed | 04:48 |
| Erik_ | /lib/firmware/2.6.22-14-generic/haup-ir-blaster.bin | 04:49 |
| tuvook | also, rerun the mcc ir tool | 04:49 |
| tuvook | that tool should work properly now | 04:49 |
| Erik_ | Aptitude reports that I have "linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.22-14-generic" version 2.6.22-14. | 04:52 |
| Erik_ | How do I go about rerunning the mcc ir tool? | 04:52 |
| rhpot1991 | uname -a will tell you the kernel you are running | 04:52 |
| Erik_ | Is that something within the Mythbuntu config GUI tool? | 04:52 |
| Erik_ | Linux mythtv 2.6.22-14-generic #1 SMP Tue Feb 12 07:42:25 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux | 04:53 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | rhpot: need a little help here. | 04:54 |
| rhpot1991 | MythbuntuGuest40: go on | 04:54 |
| Erik_ | mythbuntu-control-center, got it. What would you have me do in it? | 04:54 |
| tuvook | the ir setup portion Erik_ | 04:54 |
| tuvook | just chose your remote again | 04:55 |
| tuvook | choose | 04:55 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | smbmount //myserver/myshare ~/.mnt --> get error: 5730: Connection to myserver failed SMB connection failed | 04:56 |
| Erik_ | I'm in the "Remote Control" section. I still have the correct remote selected. I do not have any other check boxes ticked, or anything else changed from default. | 04:56 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | Have WORKGROUP set for Network Setup and Shared Folders - Domain the Vista machine is on | 04:57 |
| Erik_ | Does "Generate Dynamic Button Mappings" need to be checked? | 04:57 |
| tuvook | sure go for it | 04:57 |
| tuvook | once thats all set, hit confirm or whatnot then exit | 04:58 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | Samba is enabled in MCC | 04:58 |
| Erik_ | Ok. Save, exit out and reboot? | 04:58 |
| Erik_ | Ok. | 04:58 |
| tuvook | a reboot may not be required | 04:58 |
| tuvook | try irw | 04:58 |
| tuvook | you could also try restarting the lircd daemon with /etc/init.d/lircd restart | 04:59 |
| Erik_ | Nothing changed in irw. | 04:59 |
| tuvook | and or relod the lirc modules with modprobe | 04:59 |
| rhpot1991 | MythbuntuGuest40: should be able to \\x.x.x.x\sharename | 05:00 |
| Erik_ | lsmod leads me to believe the modules are still loaded. | 05:00 |
| rhpot1991 | where the x's are your IP address of the box with the shares | 05:00 |
| Erik_ | /etc/init.d/lirc restart didn't change much. | 05:00 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | so, no need to setup a MNT directory? | 05:00 |
| Erik_ | More to the point, it didn't change anything. | 05:00 |
| rhpot1991 | provided I read your question correctly | 05:00 |
| rhpot1991 | clarify where the shares exist, and where they are being mounted | 05:01 |
| tuvook | Erik_, lirc-modules-source | 05:01 |
| tuvook | install that package if you have not already? | 05:01 |
| MUS4SHIII | anyone know about mythtvfs? | 05:01 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | All I wish to do is take the folders shared on the VISTA box (192.168.1.100) and "push" them to the MUSIC VIDEO POSTER directorys | 05:01 |
| Erik_ | Was not installed. Installing now. | 05:01 |
| tuvook | Erik_, linux-ubuntu-modules | 05:01 |
| tuvook | that one as well | 05:02 |
| Erik_ | Roger. | 05:02 |
| rhpot1991 | MythbuntuGuest40: ah ok, do you have the shares created in vista already? | 05:02 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | Yes, they are ready to go... | 05:02 |
| rhpot1991 | MythbuntuGuest40: you don't need samba enabled on the mythtv box then, thats for sharing out | 05:02 |
| Erik_ | linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.22-14-generic is already installed. (That's the one appropriate for my kernel.) | 05:03 |
| tuvook | good | 05:03 |
| Erik_ | The lirc-modules-source package was not previously installed. | 05:03 |
| tuvook | that should help | 05:03 |
| tuvook | it will ask to be setup | 05:04 |
| Erik_ | I seem to recall something mystical about that guy, but I don't remember what needed to be done. | 05:04 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | I did see a file: /etc/samba/smg.conf --> could I create the path there? | 05:04 |
| tuvook | it will ask to check the remote that you have | 05:04 |
| tuvook | then go about making the appropriate modules for the remote | 05:04 |
| rhpot1991 | MythbuntuGuest40: I have a link for you,just need to find it first | 05:04 |
| tuvook | Erik_, I went through hell with this remote | 05:04 |
| tuvook | hoping my work makes it easier for you | 05:05 |
| foxbuntu | tuvook, which remote? | 05:05 |
| Erik_ | I'm remembering part of this. I'm trying to automatically build the kernel module... | 05:05 |
| tuvook | Erik's the pvr150 | 05:05 |
| foxbuntu | STD silver MCE remote? | 05:06 |
| tuvook | Erik_, good, I believe we are almost there | 05:06 |
| tuvook | not the mce one | 05:06 |
| tuvook | well silver yes | 05:06 |
| tuvook | no tthe grey | 05:06 |
| rhpot1991 | hauppauge grey | 05:06 |
| tuvook | I may be color blind :P | 05:06 |
| tuvook | grey | 05:07 |
| Erik_ | That image I linked earlier is a photo of the remote. | 05:07 |
| foxbuntu | Erik_, the remote shown here | 05:07 |
| foxbuntu | ? | 05:07 |
| foxbuntu | http://www.hauppauge.com/pages/products/data_pvr150mcekit.html | 05:07 |
| rhpot1991 | no not that | 05:07 |
| tuvook | not that one | 05:07 |
| tuvook | I have the other | 05:07 |
| rhpot1991 | http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/PVR-350_Remote_Quick_Guide | 05:07 |
| tuvook | http://www.hauppauge.com/pages/products/data_pvr150.html | 05:08 |
| tuvook | that one | 05:08 |
| foxbuntu | which receiver? | 05:09 |
| tuvook | http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/PVR150_Remote | 05:10 |
| Erik_ | foxbuntu, not that remote. | 05:10 |
| foxbuntu | Erik_, the one they sent me? | 05:10 |
| tuvook | Erik_, reboot? | 05:10 |
| Erik_ | http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Image:Pvr350_grey_remote_generic.gif | 05:10 |
| Erik_ | I'm installing the source for fricking everything, so I can get this kernel module to build... | 05:11 |
| rhpot1991 | you don't need to rebuild the module | 05:11 |
| rhpot1991 | its already there | 05:11 |
| foxbuntu | Erik_, are you using Mythbuntu? | 05:11 |
| Erik_ | foxbuntu, yes I am using Mythbuntu 7.10. | 05:11 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | rhpot: you still digging for the link? | 05:11 |
| rhpot1991 | MythbuntuGuest40: thats what I was doing thanks | 05:12 |
| foxbuntu | Erik_, are you using a non-standard irreceiver? I don't understand the reasoning for rebuilfing everything | 05:12 |
| foxbuntu | rebuilding* | 05:12 |
| rhpot1991 | MythbuntuGuest40: its on my laptop I think, let me go get it | 05:12 |
| Erik_ | I am using the standard receiver that can with the PVR-150. | 05:12 |
| Erik_ | I'm grasping at straws, basically. | 05:13 |
| tuvook | Erik_, you only needed to check the pvr150 module | 05:13 |
| Erik_ | tuvook, roger. That part is done. Rebooting. | 05:13 |
| Erik_ | Crossing fingers... And toes. :) | 05:13 |
| foxbuntu | tuvook, you mind if I step in for a minute? I am the maintainer behind mythbuntu-lircrc-generator | 05:13 |
| tuvook | sure no problem | 05:14 |
| foxbuntu | Erik_, let me know when its booted back up | 05:14 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | ah, no problem | 05:14 |
| Erik_ | foxbuntu, will do. And, thank you. :) | 05:14 |
| tuvook | this is a great channel | 05:14 |
| Erik_ | Celeron 1.1GHz, 512M, not real fast... :/ | 05:14 |
| tuvook | thats what I use for a remote frontend | 05:15 |
| Erik_ | Indeed. Always nice to see the actual maintainers hanging around. :D | 05:15 |
| tuvook | except my chip is a P4 | 05:15 |
| Erik_ | Considering everything around here is still SD, it still does the job quite well. :) | 05:15 |
| tuvook | feels like a celeron though :( | 05:15 |
| Erik_ | Indeed. The P4 never much impressed me. :/ | 05:16 |
| Erik_ | (Still on splash screen, booting...) | 05:16 |
| rhpot1991 | MythbuntuGuest40: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=283131 | 05:17 |
| rhpot1991 | MythbuntuGuest40: that tells you how to do it with smbfs, you might want to search for ciffs as I think that is the latest and greatest | 05:17 |
| Erik_ | foxbuntu, box is back up. | 05:17 |
| foxbuntu | Erik_, ok | 05:18 |
| foxbuntu | close the FE and open a terminal | 05:18 |
| rhpot1991 | MythbuntuGuest40: its cifs not ciffs | 05:18 |
| Erik_ | foxbuntu, is SSH good enough? | 05:18 |
| foxbuntu | Erik_, that will work as well | 05:18 |
| Erik_ | The box is physically in the next room... | 05:18 |
| foxbuntu | thats ok | 05:18 |
| Erik_ | Cool. :) | 05:18 |
| Erik_ | I can just see the side of the screen, so I know when it's up. :) | 05:19 |
| foxbuntu | Erik_, sudo modprobe lirc_mceusb | 05:19 |
| Erik_ | Done.l | 05:19 |
| Erik_ | Done, rather. | 05:19 |
| foxbuntu | any output? | 05:19 |
| foxbuntu | errors or otherwise? | 05:19 |
| Erik_ | None. | 05:19 |
| foxbuntu | good | 05:19 |
| foxbuntu | that means it worked | 05:20 |
| Erik_ | That mean my remote'll work? | 05:20 |
| foxbuntu | now do sudo modeprobe lirc_mceusb2 | 05:20 |
| foxbuntu | Erik_, not yet...let me walk through this with you | 05:20 |
| Erik_ | Again, no output. | 05:20 |
| Erik_ | Roge.r | 05:20 |
| Erik_ | Roger, rather. | 05:20 |
| Erik_ | Awaiting further instructions. :) | 05:20 |
| * tuvook hoping it works for E | 05:21 | |
| foxbuntu | Erik_, ok this means that the proper reveicer modules are properly loading | 05:21 |
| foxbuntu | Erik_, sudo depmod -a | 05:21 |
| === tuvook is now known as Tuv0k | ||
| Erik_ | Long pause, no output. | 05:21 |
| foxbuntu | Erik_, ok that means you arent having errors loading any kernel modules | 05:22 |
| foxbuntu | good | 05:22 |
| Erik_ | I would think so. :) | 05:22 |
| foxbuntu | Erik_, now, is the IR receiver usb? attached to the PVR-350? | 05:23 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | rhpot: ciffs? | 05:23 |
| Erik_ | It attaches directly to the PVR-150 via a connector that looks similar to a 1/8" headphone jack, only a little smaller and has a couple extra conductors. | 05:23 |
| foxbuntu | Erik_, ok | 05:24 |
| foxbuntu | Erik_, sudo modprobe lirc_i2c | 05:24 |
| Erik_ | done. | 05:24 |
| foxbuntu | Erik_, ok now | 05:25 |
| rhpot1991 | MythbuntuGuest40: cifs, search http://ubuntuforums.org for it, there are howtos in there | 05:25 |
| foxbuntu | sudo nano /etc/lirc/hardware.conf | 05:25 |
| Erik_ | Ok. | 05:25 |
| foxbuntu | Erik_, hold on a min | 05:25 |
| Erik_ | Holding on. | 05:26 |
| rhpot1991 | Erik_: does that wire have 2 wires that split off of it? | 05:28 |
| Erik_ | Should there not be a pvr150 module mentioned somewhere around here? | 05:28 |
| rhpot1991 | one for the blaster one for the receiver? | 05:28 |
| rhpot1991 | i2c is the hauppauge | 05:28 |
| npurciful | err, irritating, buy a Seagate 500gb hdd and it dies less that 48hours | 05:28 |
| Erik_ | rhpot1991, yes, it has the receiver and transmitter. | 05:28 |
| rhpot1991 | Erik_: you didn't happen to notice if the ir blaster flashes red when you first boot? | 05:29 |
| Erik_ | npurciful, I have the exact same drive in this machine, and I am pleased to report it's lasted longer than 48 hours... :/ | 05:29 |
| Erik_ | I have never seen any lights on either of the two things on the ends of the wires. | 05:29 |
| rhpot1991 | npurciful: call them up and requiest an advanced rma | 05:29 |
| rhpot1991 | npurciful: you can give them a CC number and they will send you a new one while you send yours in | 05:29 |
| rhpot1991 | Erik_: you verified its plugged all the way in, right? | 05:30 |
| Erik_ | rhpot1991, as well as I know how. Is there any way I can KNOW it's plugged in properly? Is it supposed to flash a light at me, or somehow indicate it's fully seated? | 05:30 |
| npurciful | its weird if i plug my drive in the computer power flashes and goes off, | 05:31 |
| rhpot1991 | mine flashes when I boot | 05:31 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | rhpot: should I be using dhcpd or something? | 05:31 |
| rhpot1991 | npurciful: not enough juice in the ps? | 05:31 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | I am getting MORE AND MORE confused. | 05:31 |
| Erik_ | rhpot1991, the little transmitter or the larger receiver? | 05:31 |
| rhpot1991 | MythbuntuGuest40: prob gonna want static IP's so you can hardcode them in there | 05:31 |
| rhpot1991 | Erik_: the transmitter | 05:31 |
| npurciful | well i tried a external case to it also flashes and turns off | 05:31 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | AHHH do not know what the hell to do here. | 05:32 |
| Erik_ | rhpot1991, Hrmm... I guess I could have a look at it next time. I have it wrapped up and tucked in the back of the computer, as I am not using it. | 05:32 |
| npurciful | i think it is overloading the power supplies | 05:32 |
| rhpot1991 | Erik_: just go unplug it, and plug it in again, when you are done give it a full rotation to make sure that knotch is in the right place | 05:32 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | Reading this thread.... You can do a central location, you just have to mount that location to each frontend. The mounts can happen automatically at boot. That's how I have mine setup. I have all my music and mythvideo media stored on my fileserver and mounted on each frontend. If you have them mounted then their may be some other problem. You'll want to make sure you've entered the proper directories for myth to scan. | 05:32 |
| Erik_ | rhpot1991, I don't have a notch. I pulled it out and looked at it in fairly bright light. Although, the way the recepticle is oriented it does come fairly close to the part of the case that separates the expansion cards in the back... | 05:33 |
| rhpot1991 | Erik_: by knotch I mean that the plastic isn't completely flush , there is one part that slides up against the top of the pci slot so its snapped all the way in | 05:35 |
| rhpot1991 | otherwise it will hit the metal of the case and not plug all the way in | 05:36 |
| Erik_ | rhpot1991, I unplugged and replugged it a couple times. I'll be a monkey's uncle, that little thing DOES flash red. :o | 05:36 |
| rhpot1991 | ah ok, then you got a good connection | 05:36 |
| Erik_ | Of course, now I'm curious to reboot the thing and see it flash at me... But, I don't want to make foxbuntu wait 20 minutes... ;) | 05:36 |
| Erik_ | I always assumed that thing was so little it only has an infrared LED in it and it wouldn't do anything visible... :o | 05:37 |
| foxbuntu | Erik_, do this before you reboot | 05:37 |
| Erik_ | Sir. | 05:37 |
| foxbuntu | hal-device > output.txt | 05:38 |
| foxbuntu | then paste the contents of that file in pastebin | 05:38 |
| Erik_ | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60131/ | 05:40 |
| Erik_ | foxbuntu, do you WANT me to reboot? | 05:40 |
| foxbuntu | Erik_, hold off | 05:41 |
| Erik_ | Roger. | 05:41 |
| foxbuntu | I want to look this over | 05:41 |
| Erik_ | The onlyl reason I'd be doing it was to see that stupid, little LED flash at me... I've seen LED's blink before. ;) | 05:41 |
| Erik_ | Take your time. :) | 05:41 |
| Erik_ | Can you imagine how much bile would be created if a monster such as that were pasted into a busy chat channel? :o | 05:43 |
| rhpot1991 | Erik_: thats why we have pastebin | 05:43 |
| Erik_ | Indeed. :) | 05:43 |
| rhpot1991 | not to mention IRC would kick you for flooding | 05:44 |
| Erik_ | Also true. :) | 05:44 |
| Erik_ | But, there was a point in time, before bots, that yokles could get into a channel and paste crap like that. :o | 05:44 |
| Erik_ | Well, probably a couple hours... | 05:45 |
| rhpot1991 | IRC server itself will kick now a days | 05:45 |
| Erik_ | Aye. IRC has come a long way. :) | 05:45 |
| Erik_ | I used IRC a lot, way back in the day. I am still enjoying the novelty of paste-bin type utilities. :) | 05:46 |
| Erik_ | Once ICQ came along, I didn't use IRC much anymore... | 05:46 |
| foxbuntu | Erik_, reboot it | 05:46 |
| Erik_ | Reboot in process. | 05:47 |
| Erik_ | rhpot1991, at what point in the boot-up process should I see that LED flash? | 05:48 |
| rhpot1991 | Erik_: mine flash right after it gets power I think, just quick then its off | 05:49 |
| rhpot1991 | I believe it also flashes if I unplug it and plug it back in, I will go verify that now | 05:49 |
| Erik_ | Meh. Well, I'm probably ~20' from it... | 05:49 |
| Erik_ | Roge.r | 05:49 |
| Erik_ | Roger, even... | 05:49 |
| rhpot1991 | ya it flashes when I plug it in | 05:51 |
| rhpot1991 | mine wont even turn in the plug, with that knotch there | 05:51 |
| Erik_ | w00t! 23 reboots and fsck has been forced... | 05:51 |
| rhpot1991 | did you buy the tuner new? | 05:51 |
| Erik_ | Yes, I bought this card new. But, I've had it quite a while... | 05:51 |
| Erik_ | The LED flashes extremely briefly when I unplug it, and seemingly a little longer when I plug it back in. although, that might well be my imagination. It doesn't seem like it's any kind of designed behavior. | 05:53 |
| Erik_ | fsck is about 2/3 done... | 05:54 |
| Erik_ | foxbuntu, box is back up. | 05:57 |
| foxbuntu | Erik_, ok | 05:57 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | I would like to use remote access to access my VIDEO directory located on my Vista machine. From what I have found I need to do this: | 05:58 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=556017&highlight=map+directory+windows+machine | 05:58 |
| Erik_ | Still only /dev/lircd though. :( | 05:58 |
| foxbuntu | Erik_, ls /dev/lirc <tab key> what do you get? | 05:58 |
| foxbuntu | you beat me to it ;) | 05:58 |
| Erik_ | I kinda figured that's where my symptoms are... :) | 05:58 |
| Erik_ | I want to say there should be a pvr150 kernel module loading to make this thing do something... | 05:58 |
| foxbuntu | Erik_, nope | 05:59 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | My only question, after doing this is HOW to point MythVideo to the VISTA machine? edit smb.conf to the mount point I create? | 05:59 |
| rhpot1991 | MythbuntuGuest40: thats for sharing out from linux to windows | 05:59 |
| Erik_ | :( | 05:59 |
| foxbuntu | that is one of the easiest remotes to setup | 05:59 |
| rhpot1991 | MythbuntuGuest40: follow this link: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=283131 | 05:59 |
| rhpot1991 | MythbuntuGuest40: and search for "smbfs" | 05:59 |
| foxbuntu | Erik_, is this a fresh build (i.e. can the machine be rebuilt?) | 05:59 |
| rhpot1991 | and do that | 05:59 |
| Erik_ | foxbuntu, yes. It's a fresh install as of last week. I'd only lose some episodes of Scrubs... Nothing Earth shattering. | 06:00 |
| Erik_ | I can't believe I rebooted 23 times already in the past week. :o | 06:00 |
| foxbuntu | lol | 06:00 |
| Erik_ | I suppose getting my MCSE gave me an affinity for rebooting things. :P | 06:01 |
| foxbuntu | Erik_, sometimes things can get hairy with lirc, I write code for it and it still drives me crazy, so don't worry | 06:01 |
| * rhpot1991 has been fighting with lirc the past few nights | 06:01 | |
| Erik_ | Aye. lirc has been the bane of my interaction with MythTV. I remember when I first started playing with it, I got everything working perfectly. I was SO happy. Then, I made the mistake of rebooting the box. It was probably a year or more before I got that remote to work again. | 06:02 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | Si this guide would be what I need to follow? | 06:02 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountWindowsSharesPermanently | 06:02 |
| Erik_ | I eventually got everything running quite well on Kubuntu 7.04 with a 60G drive. Then, I got the 500G drive I'm on now, and decided to use Mythbuntu 7.10. | 06:02 |
| foxbuntu | Erik_, cool...we'll get it working for you | 06:03 |
| Erik_ | MythbuntuGuest40, that would seem like it. You're trying to mount a Windows share from a Ubuntu box, correct? | 06:03 |
| Erik_ | I appreciate the help, Fox. :) | 06:03 |
| rhpot1991 | MythbuntuGuest40: that looks pretty good | 06:04 |
| foxbuntu | Erik_, all else fails you can just buy one from www.foxmediasystems.com when they come online in another month or so | 06:05 |
| rhpot1991 | hah | 06:05 |
| foxbuntu | ;) | 06:05 |
| Erik_ | lol | 06:05 |
| Erik_ | I'm tempted, believe me. :) | 06:05 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | Eric: yes sir. Ive got my Vista box loaded w/ Movies, Music and Posters... Would like to access them | 06:05 |
| rhpot1991 | shameless pimping | 06:05 |
| foxbuntu | rhpot1991, lol...I know | 06:05 |
| Erik_ | There are plenty of people in this world who would rather spend money than fight with some of this stuff. | 06:05 |
| Erik_ | Upon occasion, I'm one of them. :) | 06:06 |
| foxbuntu | Erik_, I know it and thats why I am starting a business for just that | 06:06 |
| rhpot1991 | Erik_: well intersting here, on a working box with a 150 and the same remote you have, I don't have a /dev/lirc0 and it works | 06:06 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | Unable any documentation that will redirect the MOVIE, MUSIC, POSTERS to the Windows Mounted drives. Thinking I modify smb.conf | 06:06 |
| rhpot1991 | just noticed that | 06:06 |
| Erik_ | rhpot1991, do you have JUST /dev/lircd? | 06:06 |
| rhpot1991 | oh wait! | 06:07 |
| foxbuntu | Erik_, try to copy the lircd.conf from that wiki to /etc/lirc/lircd.conf | 06:07 |
| rhpot1991 | Erik_: do a ls -la /dev/lir* | 06:07 |
| foxbuntu | rhpot1991, waiting!!! | 06:07 |
| rhpot1991 | lirc0 doesn't show up in tab complete | 06:07 |
| foxbuntu | rhpot1991, nope it doesnt | 06:07 |
| Erik_ | root@mythtv:~# ls -la /dev/lir* | 06:07 |
| Erik_ | srw-rw-rw- 1 root root 0 2008-03-18 22:57 /dev/lircd | 06:07 |
| Erik_ | root@mythtv:~# | 06:07 |
| rhpot1991 | :( | 06:07 |
| Erik_ | Indeed. :( | 06:07 |
| Erik_ | Where is the lircd.conf file, Fox? | 06:08 |
| foxbuntu | never mind | 06:08 |
| rhpot1991 | I do have a lirc0, so back to that | 06:08 |
| foxbuntu | wont matter till we resolve this | 06:08 |
| Erik_ | Boo. | 06:08 |
| rhpot1991 | gonna reboot without the wire and see what happens | 06:08 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | Why is it I am unable to get any help here? NOOBs not welcome? rhpot has sent me on a wild goose chase. Sucks when I migrated from MythDora and DID get help, when needed and now I am kicked to the side. | 06:09 |
| Erik_ | FWIW, the remote worked for a while, although not all the buttons were configured. Since that time I have updated the box and monkeyed with the lircrc files. | 06:09 |
| Erik_ | MythbuntuGuest40, do you have two Windows boxes? One with the share, and another you can use to test that the share is setup properly? | 06:10 |
| rhpot1991 | MythbuntuGuest40: be patient, I was in the other room | 06:11 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | No, just have a Vista Box, Mythbox, and another Mythfrontend I need to setup. | 06:11 |
| rhpot1991 | also I don't really understand your question, are you looking to share files from the mythbox to the vista box now? | 06:11 |
| Erik_ | Meh. In my limited experience with it, Samba can be a bit picky... :/ | 06:11 |
| Erik_ | rhpot1991, from what I can gather he has a share with a bunch of media on his Vista box he wants to be able to access from his Myth box. | 06:12 |
| rhpot1991 | ok so you have 3 boxes, go over which box needs what | 06:12 |
| rhpot1991 | where they share from and what they share to | 06:12 |
| rhpot1991 | identify them as vista, BE and FE | 06:12 |
| rhpot1991 | foxbuntu, Erik_: lirc0 stayed after reboot without the wire, so back to square one | 06:13 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | I have Movies, Music and the Movie posters saved on my backup drive on the Vista Box. I would like to access the files on the Vista Machine / redirect them in Myth so I can use my relatively small drive (250 gig) on the Myth FRONTEND for recordings. Using a Mozart Sx case that doesnt support 2 drives so I am sorta maxed ATM. | 06:14 |
| Erik_ | Meh. | 06:14 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | Videos fill 80% of drive... | 06:14 |
| rhpot1991 | MythbuntuGuest40: are the frontend and backend on different boxes? | 06:15 |
| Erik_ | It would seem that MythbuntuGuest40 just needs to get that share up and mounted, then get MythTV to look at the mounted file system for goodies... | 06:15 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | My setup: MythBuntu Front/Back (Machine 1) MythBuntu Front (Machine 2), Vista Ultimate 32 (Machine 3)... Machines 1 and 3 have a hardwired connection. | 06:15 |
| hugolp | hi, is there a guide to get mythweb .21 working? | 06:16 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | Thast is correct Erik | 06:16 |
| hugolp | I cant get audio or video to play | 06:16 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | think SMB.conf: modify the "path" to mounted "folders" | 06:16 |
| rhpot1991 | ok MythbuntuGuest40: for every mythbuntu box that needs the videos, they need mythvideo setup and pointing at a directory that has your windows shares mounted via smbfs or cifs | 06:16 |
| rhpot1991 | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountWindowsSharesPermanently | 06:17 |
| rhpot1991 | tells you how to do that | 06:17 |
| foxbuntu | Erik_, im stumped but without knowing what else has changed, I might suggest rebuilding the box quick | 06:17 |
| rhpot1991 | I second that | 06:17 |
| Erik_ | hugolp, I generally feel like punching people in the head that give answers like this, but Mythweb 0.21 works out of the box, for me, with Mythbuntu 7.10. FWIW... | 06:18 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | I understand.... That is the URL I found. Nothing is documented in redirecting to the mounted location. My incling is the /etc/samba/smb.conf | 06:18 |
| rhpot1991 | MythbuntuGuest40: why do you want to redirect it? | 06:18 |
| Erik_ | foxbuntu, I'm about at that point. I suppose I'll put that on my list of things to do. :) | 06:18 |
| rhpot1991 | can't all the boxes see each other? | 06:18 |
| hugolp | Erik_: well, thanks for the feedfack, but obviously its not happening here | 06:19 |
| foxbuntu | Erik_, keep me in the loop after you get that done | 06:19 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | Set it up in Video/Setup to the mounted location.... | 06:19 |
| hugolp | Erik_: did you upgrade from .20 or did you install new? | 06:19 |
| foxbuntu | MythbuntuGuest40, Vista is prob your issue... | 06:19 |
| rhpot1991 | hugolp: my flash player worked OOB once I enabled it, are you talking about that or the streams? | 06:19 |
| Erik_ | hugolp, I understand completely. Not a particularly useful answer. But, I figured I'd throw it out there. ;) | 06:19 |
| Erik_ | hugolp, fresh install of Mythbuntu 7.10. | 06:20 |
| Erik_ | foxbuntu, it might be a while. I have a full-time day job along with taking two classes, ATM. But, I'll keep you posted. | 06:20 |
| hugolp | rhpot1991: how I do enable it? | 06:20 |
| rhpot1991 | MythbuntuGuest40: just mount it somewhere, and go type that in the setup menu | 06:20 |
| Erik_ | foxbuntu, do you have a mailing list for your site? | 06:20 |
| superm1 | MythbuntuGuest40, fwiw, there are some wacky things involved with doing vista file shares | 06:20 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | Changed LMCOMPATIBILITY LEVEL from 3 to 1 | 06:20 |
| superm1 | yeah that's the one :) | 06:20 |
| foxbuntu | Erik_, I know that feeling, Im starting a business working, coding, and supporting this :) | 06:20 |
| superm1 | and rebooted right? | 06:20 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | :Regediut | 06:21 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | Think that was the "fix" for Vista | 06:21 |
| foxbuntu | for my site? | 06:21 |
| rhpot1991 | hugolp: settings > mythweb >video playback | 06:21 |
| Erik_ | foxbuntu, yeah, the one where you're going to sell me a box with all this crap already working. ;P | 06:21 |
| foxbuntu | Erik_, oh no mailing list yet | 06:22 |
| foxbuntu | but soon | 06:22 |
| foxbuntu | Check back to it every so often | 06:22 |
| npurciful | hey what is the kubuntu startup called upsplash | 06:22 |
| Erik_ | Roger. Well, I'm gonna crash then. Thanks for all your effort! Good night, all. :) | 06:22 |
| rhpot1991 | hugolp: actually, since rebuilding this it seems like it might not have sound now | 06:23 |
| foxbuntu | ok gnight | 06:23 |
| rhpot1991 | hugolp: are you running hardy? | 06:23 |
| hugolp | the message before enabling video is scary | 06:23 |
| hugolp | rhpot1991: no | 06:23 |
| hugolp | gutsy | 06:23 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | I guess the thought I have is, if I would like to access the POSTER directory wouldnt I need the system to point to the MOUNT location. How do I go about doing this | 06:24 |
| rhpot1991 | hugolp: do a ffmepg --version, and pastebin that | 06:24 |
| rhpot1991 | !pastebin | hugolp | 06:24 |
| George | hugolp: pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic) | 06:24 |
| rhpot1991 | MythbuntuGuest40: by access you mean have mythvideo see them? | 06:24 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | rhpot: that would be correct... | 06:25 |
| rhpot1991 | MythbuntuGuest40: setup > media settings >video settings> general | 06:25 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | I installed XSMBROWER earlier and was able to "see" and "mount" shared folders in Mythbuntu | 06:26 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | Right, that takes care of the movies, but doesnt allow me to enter a file location for posters. Suppose just dump them into the Mythbunt PC and forget the share? | 06:27 |
| hugolp | rhpot1991: it doesnt find ffmepg neither in the server or in the frontend | 06:27 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | Is there a better GUI for doing this as I did | 06:27 |
| rhpot1991 | hugolp: well you need that for the flash, we might be chasing the wrong problem here though if you don't like that warning and so on | 06:28 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | I give up... Music and Video will need be changed w/in the MythBuntu Setup options. | 06:29 |
| hugolp | rhpot1991: yeah, probably we spoted a future error, but not the present error | 06:29 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | I have been at this for the last 3 days - yesterday had a LIRC issue that took a LONG time to configure - sorry for any impatience I may have. Just quite frustrated w/ this ATM. | 06:30 |
| hugolp | rhpot1991: Anyway Im running the backend in a VIA C3 so it probably doesnt have cpu enough to transcode on the fly so theres no point in enabling video | 06:30 |
| rhpot1991 | hugolp: ya | 06:30 |
| rhpot1991 | hugolp: so you are having problems with the streams then? | 06:31 |
| hugolp | rhpot1991: no, the video page doesnt open because of some bad symlink or something like that | 06:31 |
| rhpot1991 | ah ok, thats easy | 06:31 |
| rhpot1991 | do you know where your videos are? | 06:31 |
| hugolp | also, I can not play the music | 06:31 |
| hugolp | rhpot1991: yes | 06:31 |
| rhpot1991 | music I'm not sure of, but it might be the same issue | 06:31 |
| rhpot1991 | go to /var/www/mythweb/data | 06:32 |
| hugolp | ffmepg? | 06:32 |
| rhpot1991 | and fix the links | 06:32 |
| rhpot1991 | I was thinking the links, I'm not really sure how the music part works, never used it | 06:32 |
| hugolp | rhpot1991: in the server right? | 06:32 |
| rhpot1991 | wherever mythweb lives | 06:32 |
| hugolp | Im in the directory | 06:33 |
| hugolp | oh, so I have to point the symlinks to the proper place | 06:33 |
| hugolp | I see | 06:33 |
| rhpot1991 | yep | 06:33 |
| rhpot1991 | check your covers as well | 06:33 |
| rhpot1991 | or any others for that matter | 06:33 |
| rhpot1991 | MythbuntuGuest40: I think you can modify them in mythweb if you really are unhappy with the mythtv interface... | 06:35 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | rhpot: Im not following you... Mythtv iterface? | 06:36 |
| rhpot1991 | MythbuntuGuest40: guess I'm not following you either then | 06:36 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | rhpot: I appoligize... Networking is my pitfall and my brain is just fried ATM... | 06:38 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | You say I can modify what with mythweb? | 06:38 |
| rhpot1991 | MythbuntuGuest40: this should be pretty easy, all you need to do is mount those shares in /etc/fstab/ on any mythbox that needs them | 06:38 |
| rhpot1991 | then go into your mythtv menu, navigate through it till you get to the video options where it has inputs for you to put the locations of those videos and the posters | 06:39 |
| rhpot1991 | match them up and it should work | 06:39 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | Ok, I will mount MUSIC and VIDEO in fstab. Then change the dir path within MythFrontend. | 06:39 |
| rhpot1991 | yep | 06:39 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | I think I can get this... Like to have the "roadmap" before getting into this. | 06:41 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | Question: creating the credentials; use Vista Username/Password? | 06:42 |
| rhpot1991 | that I don't know about sorry, might want to hit the forums for that | 06:43 |
| rhpot1991 | don't have any vista boxes | 06:43 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | Well I guess this might better fit; Credentials is used to log into the Host machine | 06:45 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | Is that correct? | 06:45 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | Shit, there is nothing to this... Just read through the entire doc - not much there... | 06:46 |
| rhpot1991 | ya | 06:46 |
| hugolp | rhpot1991: I fixed the symlink but Im getting the same mistake Could not create a symlink to /var/lib/mythtv/videos, the local MythVideo directory for this hostname (server). Please create a symlink to your MythVideo directory at data/video in order to use the video portions of MythWeb. | 06:46 |
| hugolp | bah, I should read first | 06:46 |
| hugolp | I just wake up | 06:46 |
| hugolp | never mind | 06:46 |
| rhpot1991 | good? | 06:46 |
| rhpot1991 | heh | 06:46 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | I think I will pick up on this tomarrow.... THANK YOU and sorry if I came off a bit prickish! | 06:48 |
| hugolp | ok, so theres a /var/www/mythweb/data/video that seems ok, do I have to delete it and make it point to /var/lib/mythtv/videos? | 06:48 |
| hugolp | also, what package do I need to install to get ffmpeg part working? | 06:49 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | You really did help as I am about to get a buddy of mine on this and, well, this is the test setup for the situation he is facing. | 06:49 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | *setting up Mythbuntu | 06:50 |
| MythbuntuGuest40 | And I was needing it as I crashed my database being full. Thanks again RHPOT; have a good evening! | 06:51 |
| rhpot1991 | no problem MythbuntuGuest40 | 06:52 |
| rhpot1991 | take care | 06:52 |
| rhpot1991 | hugolp: if you ls -la in the data dir it will show you where they point at | 06:52 |
| rhpot1991 | I've always deleted old ones and replaced them with new ones (sudo ln -s <location> <link>, man ln to verify I didn't swap them) | 06:52 |
| rhpot1991 | there might be a way to edit them, but I don't know it | 06:53 |
| rhpot1991 | as far as the flash video, you just need to install ffmpeg, but it needs mp3 support, if you have medibuntu repos enabled this isn't a problem | 06:53 |
| hugolp | rhpot1991: installing ffmepg did it | 06:58 |
| rhpot1991 | the flash player is pretty nice, 4x3 only though | 06:59 |
| hugolp | now I get the list of movies, but cant play them | 07:00 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | is mythstream not compiled for gutsy? | 07:00 |
| rhpot1991 | hugolp: it doesn't play movies at all, as far as I know | 07:00 |
| hugolp | rhpot1991: only recordings? | 07:01 |
| rhpot1991 | just lets you modify their info | 07:01 |
| rhpot1991 | as far as I know | 07:01 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | im getting compilead agaist 20.0 but 20.1 installed.. ive updated everything in synaptic | 07:01 |
| hugolp | ok, going to try, hope my C3 doesnt blow up trying to transcode :-P | 07:02 |
| rhpot1991 | KillerKiwi2005: I believe mythstream is not an official plugin, that might be why | 07:02 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | rhpot1991: how come its in backports then ? | 07:03 |
| rhpot1991 | its prob not, its prob the old version | 07:03 |
| hugolp | yeah, it lags a lot... but its working, thanks rhpot1991 | 07:03 |
| rhpot1991 | np hugolp | 07:03 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | :( | 07:04 |
| hugolp | rhpot1991: if I get no sound is probably cause I have installed the ffmpeg version that doesnt have mp3 support? | 07:05 |
| rhpot1991 | KillerKiwi2005: there is a bug out there for it | 07:05 |
| hugolp | and now my C3 is holding up with the transcoding, surprising | 07:05 |
| rhpot1991 | hugolp: yep, run ffmpeg --version, and look for something like liblame | 07:06 |
| rhpot1991 | libmp3lame | 07:06 |
| rhpot1991 | like I said the medibuntu gutsy ones have it, so enable that via MCC and update and you should be good | 07:07 |
| rhpot1991 | KillerKiwi2005: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/gutsy-backports/+bug/202988 | 07:07 |
| rhpot1991 | KillerKiwi2005: hold up being backported it seems | 07:07 |
| KillerKiwi2005 | needs a patch to build..... hopefully it will come throug soon then | 07:08 |
| rhpot1991 | things in backport needs to be accepted and all | 07:08 |
| sam_ | ir blaster question | 10:17 |

| ubotu | sam_: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-) | 10:21 |
| sam_ | ok, sorry.. | 10:23 |
| sam_ | how do i configure channels in myth-setup so that mythtv displays the channels i need, when using an external setopbox? | 10:26 |
| === croppa_ is now known as croppa | ||
| sam_ | the set-top-box will need channels to be changed by an ir-blaster | 10:33 |
| weiser | Well now we are in the ir blaster conor... Does anyone know if the ir blaster for the "MCE (new version)" does work, I can't find some good documation about it? | 12:25 |
| Aquahallic | Mornin' | 13:12 |
| thoma2 | hi | 13:15 |
| thoma2 | I updated my myth installation to 21. Now I get 'green' videos while playing recordings... Is it an known issue? | 13:18 |
| Aquahallic | anyone know if there are any "Howtos" for setting up flash streaming for mythbuntu?? | 13:18 |
| Aquahallic | thoma2: ATI video card??? | 13:18 |
| thoma2 | sorry, I forgot its a ps3 | 13:19 |
| directhex|work | thoma2, nvidia on gutsy? | 13:19 |
| thoma2 | ;-) | 13:19 |
| directhex|work | oh lord, fbdev | 13:19 |
| Aquahallic | :| | 13:19 |
| thoma2 | no, there is something like X driver | 13:20 |
| laga | i think someone created some mythtv patches to use the SPE to assist with video decoding in myth | 13:20 |
| thoma2 | Section "Device" | 13:20 |
| thoma2 | Identifier"Generic Video Card" | 13:20 |

| thoma2 | EndSection | 13:20 |
| grout | When i hit the "Watch Tv" button nothing happends. What can I do to find out why? | 13:21 |
| thoma2 | Yes, I use this | 13:21 |
| laga | grout: check /var/log/mythtv/* | 13:21 |
| laga | thoma2: did you build mythtv yourself? | 13:21 |
| thoma2 | no, it's from ubuntu for gutsy | 13:22 |
| directhex|work | spu_fbdev? how enormously experimental | 13:22 |
| thoma2 | worked wel with 20 | 13:22 |
| directhex|work | try messing with playback profiles then | 13:22 |
| Aquahallic | laga: will those patches possibly help with the blue people on an ATI?? | 13:23 |
| directhex|work | but it *is* a bug with your experimental video driver | 13:23 |
| directhex|work | Aquahallic, less than 0 chance | 13:23 |
| directhex|work | Aquahallic, unless you also have a cell coprocessor board | 13:23 |
| Aquahallic | bah | 13:23 |
| directhex|work | and they're about £3000 each | 13:23 |
| laga | Aquahallic: no, normal computers do not have cell processors.. | 13:23 |
| Aquahallic | yeah I know | 13:23 |
| laga | Aquahallic: blue people on ati? that should be fixed in 0.21 | 13:24 |
| Aquahallic | that's when I got it | 13:24 |
| thoma2 | I have one ;-) | 13:24 |
| Aquahallic | worked fine on .20 | 13:24 |
| Aquahallic | when I upgraded my people went blue on my ATI Radeon | 13:24 |
| laga | Aquahallic: using fglrx or the free driver? | 13:24 |
| Aquahallic | free | 13:24 |
| Aquahallic | I use the free so my compiz works | 13:25 |
| laga | odd. try without compiz | 13:25 |
| grout | laga: which logs are the newest? | 13:25 |
| Aquahallic | I've seen a patch out.... but it looks like it's for fglrx | 13:25 |
| laga | grout: use ls -al to find out | 13:25 |
| Aquahallic | laga: any idea where I can find instructions on setting up the flash streaming in .21? | 13:28 |
| laga | thoma2: maybe you have more luck over at http://psubuntu.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=6&sid=5aa7c988377be7401f70a53da4b60caf | 13:28 |
| Aquahallic | specific to ubuntu that is | 13:28 |
| laga | Aquahallic: the forums, it's been covered there | 13:28 |
| thoma2 | will try, thanks | 13:28 |
| Aquahallic | kewl...ty | 13:28 |
| Aquahallic | I think I'll work around the "Blue People" by just streaming it in flash and picking it up with vlc | 13:29 |
| Aquahallic | then I'll just have to straighten out the issue with the nvidia-legacy drivers on my main frontend upstairs | 13:29 |
| laga | well, "streaming in flash" means that it'll be played in a flash player on the website | 13:29 |
| laga | you can download the shows.. | 13:30 |
| laga | Aquahallic: what issue? | 13:30 |
| Aquahallic | sec.. let me get that error | 13:30 |
| Aquahallic | my frontend bombs with a libmyth error says... "undefined symbol : glXGetProcAddress" | 13:33 |
| laga | Aquahallic: yeah, we are working on that | 13:33 |
| laga | Aquahallic: is that on hardy? | 13:33 |
| Aquahallic | no I'm still on Gutsy.. I saw that it's supposed to be fixed on Hardy so I was gonna d'load a iso and upgrade that box | 13:34 |
| laga | is it supposed to be fixed? let me check | 13:34 |
| laga | ah, right. two days ago | 13:35 |
| laga | of course you can upgrade, but you can also just get the mythtv source package from hardy and rebuild it | 13:35 |
| laga | and let me know if it works ;=) | 13:35 |
| grout | laga: unable to initialize plugin 'mythstream' | 13:35 |
| laga | grout: that's not your problem.. | 13:36 |
| grout | laga: is mythstream the plugin for tv? | 13:36 |
| grout | ok | 13:36 |
| laga | grout: no, for various online media | 13:36 |
| grout | laga can i pastebin the last few lines of the log? | 13:36 |
| laga | grout: sure | 13:36 |
| Aquahallic | laga: I can't just get a .deb can I?? I'd have to compile it from source right? | 13:37 |
| grout | Thanks | 13:37 |
| laga | Aquahallic: i think so.. it's possible that someone has a package on their PPA, but i don't know :) maybe you can ask on the forums | 13:38 |
| Aquahallic | okee | 13:38 |
| laga | i'm just saying that rebuilding is what i would do, but i already have all the prereqs etc ;) | 13:38 |
| Aquahallic | I'm thinking about upgrading that box anyways... see how it runs...:P | 13:38 |
| laga | let us now how it goes then :) | 13:39 |
| Aquahallic | yup yup | 13:39 |
| Aquahallic | it's too bad this is a laptop with the ATI in it.. or I'd just rip it out and put a nvidia....:/ | 13:40 |
| Aquahallic | I liked the smurfs when I was little and all.. but this is ridiculous | 13:40 |
| laga | the odd thing is that it was broken with fglrx in 0.21 | 13:40 |
| laga | err | 13:40 |
| laga | in 0.21 | 13:40 |
| laga | but it should work in 0.21 | 13:40 |
| laga | i run a ATI card myself and it works.. | 13:41 |
| Aquahallic | worked in .20 | 13:41 |
| Aquahallic | now.. I'm using the mythtv-frontend package | 13:41 |
| Aquahallic | not the mythbuntu package | 13:41 |
| Aquahallic | cause this is my laptop | 13:41 |
| laga | mythbuntu uses mythtv-frontend :) | 13:41 |
| grout | laga: http://pastebin.com/m743823fe | 13:42 |
| Aquahallic | yup.. I know... I just wasn't sure if there were some fixes in it that aren't in the mythtv-frontend package is all | 13:42 |
| laga | Aquahallic: no | 13:43 |
| Aquahallic | it's a inspiron 9200 with a radeon card | 13:43 |
| laga | grout: there is nothing interesting in there. you should try to select "watch tv" and see what happens in the logs.. in the backend log, too | 13:43 |
| Aquahallic | and it's weird that I'm using the free driver and it's happening | 13:43 |
| grout | laga: i did | 13:44 |
| laga | grout: what's in the backend log? | 13:45 |
| grout | laga: i hit it at 9:32 | 13:45 |
| grout | one sec let me pastebin it, nothing interesting i can see | 13:45 |
| laga | wait a second, my browser just crashed.. | 13:45 |
| laga | oh, now it's working again. :) | 13:45 |
| grout | laga: http://pastebin.com/m3ab99398 | 13:46 |
| grout | laga: 9:32 is when i hit 'watch tv' | 13:46 |
| laga | grout: did you add capture cards in mythtv-setup? | 13:47 |
| grout | yes | 13:47 |
| laga | did you create input connections? | 13:48 |
| grout | hmm | 13:49 |
| laga | your logs tell me nothing.. there's nothing interesting in there. the most interesting thing is the lack of information ;) | 13:49 |

| grout | ok let me play around a little more | 13:50 |
| grout | make sure i have things configed | 13:50 |
| Aquahallic | laga: I just searched the forums for 'mythweb flash' and didn't see anything about setting it up... do you know any link in particular you were thinking about? | 13:55 |
| laga | Aquahallic: the ubuntu forums? | 13:55 |
| Aquahallic | yeah... specifically the mythbuntu threads | 13:56 |

| rhpot1991_laptop | Aquahallic: you need an ffmpeg with libmp3lame supports | 13:59 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | the medibuntu ffmpeg in gutsy has this | 13:59 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | their hardy ffmpeg has lagged a few versions behind though | 13:59 |
| Aquahallic | I found those links.. but they're more of problems people were having... not howto set it all up | 13:59 |
| Aquahallic | yeah.. I have ffmpeg from medibuntu on my backend running Gutsy | 14:00 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | Aquahallic: ffmpeg --version, verify it has libmp3lame | 14:00 |
| hugolp | hi, how can I play music with mythweb? when I hit play I get the option to download a m3u playlist and not totem not vlc can play it | 14:10 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | hugolp: try something like xmms or rhythmbox | 14:11 |
| hugolp | trying | 14:11 |
| hugolp | rhythmbox does nothing and I dont have xmms installed, do you know if xmms plays it for sure? or it might be something that I have bad configured? | 14:14 |
| hugolp | I am completely new to mythweb | 14:14 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | no, I don't was just guessing | 14:14 |
| directhex|work | open the m3u in notepad or similar, check it's valid | 14:14 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | I don't have any music on here to test with either, sorry | 14:15 |
| directhex|work | m3u is basically a plain text files with locations of music files in it | 14:15 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | hugolp: you checked the music symlink last night when you were working on the videos ones right? | 14:15 |
| hugolp | rhpot1991_laptop: for me it was this morning, and yes, I corrected the symlink | 14:16 |
| hugolp | whats this force http for streams about? | 14:16 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | heh, kinda this morning for me as well, but I slept in between then and now | 14:16 |
| hugolp | it has something to do with this? | 14:16 |
| directhex|work | hugolp, i suspect so. did you look in your m3u yet? | 14:17 |
| hugolp | no, going to | 14:18 |
| Aquahallic | rhpot1991_laptop: I don't see libmp3lame anywhere when I do a --version | 14:18 |
| hugolp | #EXTM3U | 14:18 |
| hugolp | #EXTINF:215,Amy Winehouse - Rehab | 14:18 |
| hugolp | http://192.168.2.100/mythweb/music/stream?i=1 | 14:18 |
| hugolp | just this | 14:19 |
| directhex|work | and if you visit that url? | 14:19 |
| hugolp | I get a black screen with the no video message on the center (mplayer plugin for firefox) and nothing happens | 14:20 |
| directhex|work | and if you wget the url? | 14:21 |
| thoma2 | green video on ps3 fixed, use libmpeg +xv with spu_fbdev, scales up to 1080p | 14:22 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | Aquahallic: do this: dpkg -l ffmpeg |grep ^ii | 14:22 |
| thoma2 | thanks for your help! | 14:22 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | verify that its from medibuntu | 14:22 |
| hugolp | it derives me to a ftp and then I get 'Name or service unknonw' and 'unlink:No such file or directory' | 14:23 |
| Aquahallic | ii ffmpeg 3:0.cvs20070307-5ubuntu4 multimedia player, server and encoder | 14:23 |
| Aquahallic | when I look at it in synaptic it has the little star on it saying it's a medibuntu package and it's installed | 14:24 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | 3:0.cvs20070307-5ubuntu4+medibuntu3 is the medibuntu version | 14:25 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | verify you have medibuntu in your /etc/apt/sources.list | 14:25 |
| hugolp | directhex|work: | 14:26 |
| directhex|work | hugolp, smells buggy. try fiddling the http forcing option | 14:27 |
| hugolp | directhex|work: do I need to specify a port for the forcing streaming option or can I leave it blank? | 14:28 |
| Aquahallic | rhpot1991_laptop: yup... free and non-free is checked | 14:28 |
| directhex|work | Aquahallic, huh? | 14:28 |
| Aquahallic | medibuntu sources.. | 14:28 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | Aquahallic: you have a line like this in your /etc/apt/sources.list: deb http://packages.medibuntu.org/ gutsy free non-free | 14:29 |
| Aquahallic | rhpot1991_laptop: nope... but it shows in my software sources.... strange | 14:33 |
| Aquahallic | should I manually add it to the sources.list file?? | 14:33 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | check for files in /etc/apt/sources.list.d that might contain it first | 14:34 |
| MythbuntuGuest06 | hi...is anyone usuing the new diskless feature? | 14:34 |
| Aquahallic | sources.list.d is empty | 14:34 |
| Aquahallic | there's also a .save but that's like a backup file isn't it? | 14:35 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | ya | 14:35 |
| foxbuntu | MythbuntuGuest06, Im not using it but have helped dev it...whats up? | 14:35 |
| hugolp | could it be a permission problem? when I select totem or vlc for playing the m3u file they ask for the login and password again, I enter it and vlc just keeps on asking it like it is wrong and totem ask it once and then fails saying I dont have the right codec (but I have ffmpeg installed from medibuntu in the server and in this computer) | 14:36 |
| MythbuntuGuest06 | nothing is up...yet :p Was just wondering if i need to use the 'extra' commands..or if everything can now be done in MCC | 14:36 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | I'd try adding that line, then sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get upgrade and see if you get the medibuntu version, if you don't want to edit it by hand that line should get added if you enable the codecs via MCC | 14:36 |
| foxbuntu | MythbuntuGuest06, you should be able to build an image and write a boot image to a USB drive via MCC | 14:37 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | hugolp: I get a similar password prompt when trying to stream asax recordings, never figured out what the heck its looking for there | 14:37 |
| Aquahallic | I did enable it in the Mythbuntu Control Center and put checks in all the codecs including ffmpeg | 14:37 |
| foxbuntu | MythbuntuGuest06, give it a whirl and post your results in the forums for testing it | 14:37 |
| Aquahallic | strange that it didn't populate the line in the sources.list file yet it shows in the sources application as enabled | 14:38 |
| MythbuntuGuest06 | i was hoping to pxe foxbuntu, is that not possible? | 14:38 |
| hugolp | ok, so I guess no music with mythweb at the moment | 14:38 |
| foxbuntu | MythbuntuGuest06, not yet...we are still working on that | 14:38 |
| hugolp | thanks for the help anyway | 14:38 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | hugolp: unless you figure out what username/password its looking for, in which case let me know | 14:38 |
| MythbuntuGuest06 | ah, so i have to use the usb stick option...i thought PXE was possible already | 14:38 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | I didn't care enough to figure it out | 14:38 |
| foxbuntu | MythbuntuGuest06, you can setup dhcpd with pxe and point to your server, but its not in mcc yet | 14:38 |
| hugolp | rhpot1991_laptop: XD I think I only put one user and password there... | 14:39 |
| hugolp | well two. the mythweb one, and the database one, and I dont think it wants the database one | 14:39 |
| MythbuntuGuest06 | foxbuntu,i have dhcp and pxe pointing to the server will 8.04 Alpha do the TFTP? | 14:39 |
| hugolp | by the way, why mythweb doesnt have log out? | 14:39 |
| foxbuntu | MythbuntuGuest06, not yet | 14:40 |
| foxbuntu | MythbuntuGuest06, you will have to set that up as well | 14:40 |
| MythbuntuGuest06 | foxbuntu, if i setup tftpd-hpa to point to /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386/pxelinux.cfg/default will it work? | 14:41 |
| MythbuntuGuest06 | foxbuntu: or should i do a vanilla ubuntu install and create my own diskless clients using debootstrap? | 14:41 |
| foxbuntu | laga, ping | 14:42 |
| foxbuntu | MythbuntuGuest06, the image part is taken care of | 14:43 |
| foxbuntu | when you build it with MCC it resides /opt/ltsp/<arch> | 14:43 |
| MythbuntuGuest06 | i managed to do that over VNC this am, easy! not at home to boot the client...does the kernel not reside in /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386/pxelinux.cfg/default like on the wiki page for PXE boot? | 14:44 |
| foxbuntu | MythbuntuGuest06, no it does not | 14:45 |
| foxbuntu | its a custom build process for ltsp speccifally building a mythbunut image | 14:45 |
| foxbuntu | minus all the fat figering | 14:45 |
| MythbuntuGuest06 | ok, so if i was to setup tftp-hpa, where should i point it to? | 14:45 |
| MythbuntuGuest06 | here?? /opt/ltsp/amd64/boot | 14:46 |
| foxbuntu | i belive so | 14:46 |
| foxbuntu | I myself helped write some of the code but don't fully know how all the parts fit together | 14:46 |
| foxbuntu | if you have trouble see the forums and catch laga when he is around | 14:47 |
| MythbuntuGuest06 | then it should boot ok, wonder how it will effect upgrades | 14:47 |
| MythbuntuGuest06 | read the forums, but some stuff seems out of date | 14:47 |
| foxbuntu | you read the mythbuntu diskless testing forum? | 14:47 |
| foxbuntu | Im not sure the last update on that | 14:48 |
| Aquahallic | rhpot1991_laptop: that did it... I see --enable libmp3lame | 14:49 |
| MythbuntuGuest06 | last post 3 days ago..a lot happened over the period on the forum | 14:49 |
| Aquahallic | for some reason just checking off the codec in MCC didn't populate the line in sources.list | 14:50 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | Aquahallic: have sound in flash now? | 14:50 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | could have gotten out of synch or something | 14:50 |
| Aquahallic | heh... I wasn't having an issue with sound... I was looking for instructions on how to setup the flash streaming... I would have needed this anyways...:) | 14:51 |
| Aquahallic | you're so good you fixed it before I could break it | 14:51 |
| Aquahallic | LOL | 14:51 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | well, all you need to do now is enable the flash video | 14:52 |
| Aquahallic | yeah.. that's what I'm looking for instructions on...:) | 14:52 |
| Aquahallic | a "HowTo" or something | 14:52 |
| foxbuntu | Aquahallic, what did you enable in mcc that didn't show up in sources.list? | 14:52 |
| Aquahallic | medibuntu sources | 14:52 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | settings, mythweb, video playback | 14:53 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | its a checkbox there | 14:53 |
| Aquahallic | on mythweb?? | 14:53 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | yep, after you are logged in | 14:53 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | the settings is the key and wrench button on top | 14:53 |
| Aquahallic | yup... | 14:53 |
| foxbuntu | Aquahallic, ok...can you file a bug against MCC for that on launchpad? | 14:53 |
| Aquahallic | yup.... I'll do that | 14:54 |
| foxbuntu | thanks | 14:54 |
| Aquahallic | oh.. phooie.... I gotta fix my symlinks... I fixed the videos one.. now I gotta fix my coverart one | 14:57 |
| Aquahallic | there was a setting somewhere that you path to your coverart... anyone remember where that is??? | 14:58 |
| MythbuntuGuest06 | foxbuntu: i changed i few config files in the /opt... wont know if it will work until i get home, but right now dont see a reason fo rit to fail...why is it not working fom mcc? anything i should look out for? | 14:58 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | Aquahallic: in the frontend its under setup->media->videos->general I think | 15:00 |
| Aquahallic | foxbuntu: this was on gutsy after I took the .21 update... you still want me to file a bug?? it's not on Hardy | 15:00 |
| foxbuntu | Aquahallic, what version of MCC si that? | 15:00 |
| foxbuntu | .23/.24? | 15:01 |
| Aquahallic | where I find it? | 15:01 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | dpkg -l mythbuntu* |grep ^ii | 15:01 |
| Aquahallic | 0.11 | 15:02 |
| foxbuntu | for control centre? | 15:02 |
| Aquahallic | yup.. sec | 15:02 |
| foxbuntu | wow..no don't file a bug | 15:03 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | foxbuntu: I think it might just be from using multiple things hitting apt or something | 15:03 |
| Aquahallic | ii mythbuntu-control-centre 0.11-0ubuntu1~ppa1 Mythbuntu Configuration Application | 15:03 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | somehow it might have gotten overwritten by something not MCC and the entry got lost | 15:03 |
| Aquahallic | oh... I read something that .21 torched mythvideo | 15:07 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | Aquahallic: you need to do a sudo apt-get install mythvideo | 15:08 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | to get the latest version, cause mythdvd is now in mythvideo and it needs confirmation that mythdvd is ok to remove | 15:08 |
| Aquahallic | don't you have to remove something first?? | 15:08 |
| Aquahallic | heh | 15:08 |
| Aquahallic | k | 15:08 |
| Aquahallic | does it automagically...:) | 15:09 |
| Aquahallic | I remember a script that was in knoppmyth it was called mythpretty | 15:12 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | what did it do? | 15:12 |
| Aquahallic | went through and made symlinks to your recordings that were readable names so you could path to the dir from a share and know what they were | 15:12 |
| Aquahallic | was pretty handy | 15:13 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | like mythrename? | 15:14 |
| Aquahallic | I have my recordings, videos, music, and gallery dir all shared out with nfs and samba so the kid can get them and watch his movies in winblows media player | 15:14 |
| Aquahallic | maybe that's what it is now | 15:14 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | mythrename renames your recordings to something readable | 15:14 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | instead of 1001_1278123123.mpg | 15:14 |
| Aquahallic | is that incorporated with .21 or an addon?? | 15:15 |
| Aquahallic | like a cron job | 15:15 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | its in the contrib folder on your system | 15:15 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | you would need to script that yourself, would work bets as a user job after recordings complete | 15:15 |
| Aquahallic | so mythrename is already there?? | 15:16 |
| Aquahallic | I just need to set it up as a user job? | 15:16 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | yep | 15:16 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | /usr/share/doc/mythtv-backend/contrib/ | 15:16 |
| Aquahallic | nice... do I need to setup variables or does it already name it to what the guide name is?? | 15:16 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | I'm not really sure, you'd have to play with it and see | 15:17 |
| Aquahallic | will do | 15:17 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | you can poke at my screenshots here to see how to setup the user job: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MythExport | 15:17 |
| Aquahallic | just made it nice cause then you don't really need a frontend to watch something.. just hit mythweb fire up a recording then go find it and watch it from your favorite player...:) | 15:18 |
| Aquahallic | hmm... can you setup a user job that runs like 20 secs after you start the recording?? | 15:19 |
| Aquahallic | so you see the symlink right after you start the recording?? | 15:19 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | well it actually renames the recording file | 15:20 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | the last screenshot there I show where you can have it run after its done recording | 15:20 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | also, mythweb doesn't really require renaming for recordings | 15:20 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | it grabs all that info from the db | 15:20 |
| Aquahallic | mythweb doesn't... but if you're looking at the files from "My Network Places" in winblows you do | 15:21 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | ya | 15:21 |
| Aquahallic | I'd want it to rename it like immediately | 15:21 |
| Aquahallic | but that's prolly not gonna work...:( | 15:21 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | that will, right after its done recording | 15:21 |
| Aquahallic | I might have to setup that mythpretty somehow to run right after the recording starts to create a symlink with a real name then you can view the recording as it's happening from a real name | 15:22 |
| * Aquahallic sees a "HowTo" coming down the pipe...:P | 15:22 | |
| Aquahallic | it was a REAL handy feature | 15:23 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | do you really need to watch it as its being recorded though? | 15:23 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/User_job | 15:23 |
| * foxbuntu wonders where this "pipe" is =P | 15:23 | |
| rhpot1991_laptop | might be helpful to you | 15:23 |
| Aquahallic | it's like watch live tv but from a different player is all | 15:24 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | you will have to see if you can make a user job fire off on recording, I *think* they fire off when its done | 15:24 |
| foxbuntu | Aquahallic, you just need to record more shows...then there would be no purpose in watching livetv :) | 15:25 |
| Aquahallic | well... gotta NBA game tonight... better go get ready for work | 15:25 |
| Aquahallic | this is true...:) | 15:25 |
| Aquahallic | tell that to the g'friend and kids....LOL | 15:25 |
| Aquahallic | thanx for all the help folks! | 15:26 |

| Stemming78 | I am needing some help setting up a fstab | 21:51 |
| tgm4883_laptop | Stemming78, whats the problem? | 21:52 |
| Stemming78 | Need specification on how to create the file; Server, Share, Mountpoint... | 21:52 |
| tgm4883_laptop | what are you trying to mount? | 21:53 |
| Stemming78 | I am wanting to mount folders on my Vista Machine; share has been enabled | 21:53 |
| Stemming78 | *from | 21:53 |
| tgm4883_laptop | ah | 21:53 |
| tgm4883_laptop | so you want to mount a cifs drive | 21:54 |
| tgm4883_laptop | (samba) | 21:54 |
| Stemming78 | yah | 21:54 |
| Stemming78 | Using this guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountWindowsSharesPermanently | 21:54 |
| Stemming78 | Unsure what needs to happen; I am a total NOOB | 21:54 |
| tgm4883_laptop | ah ok | 21:55 |
| tgm4883_laptop | where on your computer do you want to mount it? | 21:55 |
| Stemming78 | Doesnt really matter... Mounting my VIDEO and MUSIC directory so I dont have to use drive space on my Backend | 21:56 |
| Stemming78 | *from the Vista machine of course | 21:56 |
| Stemming78 | I will modify the Frontend setup to reflect the mount location; think this will work? | 21:57 |
| tgm4883_laptop | yea, sounds fine | 21:58 |
| tgm4883_laptop | can you mount it from the command line? | 21:58 |
| tgm4883_laptop | sudo mount -t cifs //netbiosname/sharename /media/sharename -o username=winusername,password=winpassword,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777 | 21:58 |
| Stemming78 | will try; sec | 21:58 |
| Stemming78 | Do I change "netbiosname to IP address of Vistabox? | 21:59 |
| tgm4883_laptop | yes | 21:59 |
| Shred00 | hrm. i'm confused. will an 0.21-fixes not be maintained for gutsy (at least) until hardy is released? | 22:00 |
| Shred00 | it seems so, but i don't understand why | 22:00 |
| tgm4883_laptop | .21-fixes will not be in gutsy | 22:00 |
| Shred00 | tgm4883_laptop: indeed, that was my interpretation. but why not? | 22:01 |
| Stemming78 | tgm4883_laptop: media/sharename example? | 22:01 |
| Stemming78 | Or will this be the mount point | 22:02 |
| tgm4883_laptop | Shred00, AFAIK, .21-fixes is a lot of work to keep up for more than one release. (ie, there is some stuff in hardy and .21 that ties it together that is hard to implement in gutsy). I'm not totally sure thats the case, but I will make sure when the maintainer comes online | 22:03 |
| Shred00 | hrm. istm that if you can make an initial 0.21 work on gutsy, simply updating from 0.21-fixes and rebuilding is the easy part | 22:04 |
| tgm4883_laptop | Stemming78, that would be where on your machine that you want it mounted. IE, a good place for your videos dir to be mounted is /var/lib/mythtv/videos/ | 22:04 |
| Shred00 | i'm just imagining the scenario, that 0.21 goes into gutsy backports and before hardy goes GA some showstopper bug is found in 0.21. what happens then to those of us on gutsy? | 22:05 |
| tgm4883_laptop | Shred00, like i said, i'm not really sure the issue. I thought I had heard that (what I posted) was the reason. I would be happy to verify the reason as to why though | 22:05 |
| tgm4883_laptop | Shred00, well you have to realize that hardy != .21 | 22:05 |
| Stemming78 | tgm4883_laptop: mount error 20 = Not a directory | 22:05 |
| Shred00 | tgm4883_laptop: i don't understand your "0.21 != hardy" | 22:06 |
| tgm4883_laptop | I'm not exactly sure why you think there would be some showstopper bug found in hardy .21? | 22:06 |
| tgm4883_laptop | Stemming78, show me the command you tried to use | 22:06 |
| Shred00 | tgm4883_laptop: no, not a bug in hardy a bug in myth 0.21 | 22:07 |
| Shred00 | tgm4883_laptop: if gutsy-backports (or mythbuntu or whatever else) does not track 0.21 for gutsy and i ugrade my gutsy installation to 0.21 and then a bug is found in 0.21, i'm screwed until hardy is released and can track 0.21-fixes again. | 22:08 |
| tgm4883_laptop | Shred00, I believe that any showstopping bugs would be fixed and that would be backported itself. However, there would have to be made a case and exemption for that to be backported | 22:08 |
| Stemming78 | tgm4883_laptop: nm... was using the Music directory... Not the Movies Directory.... Not getting an error now... How do I check if it is mounted | 22:08 |
| tgm4883_laptop | However, that would only be the case for showstopping bugs | 22:08 |
| tgm4883_laptop | Stemming78, cd /path/to/mounted/dir | 22:09 |
| tgm4883_laptop | ls | 22:09 |
| tgm4883_laptop | it should show what is on your windows drive | 22:09 |
| Shred00 | tgm4883_laptop: yeah, the sad reality is though, that backports seem to take ages to get accepted and published. with an 0.21-fixes weekly build (like we have for 0.20-fixes and gutsy currently) I'm only hosed for a week at most | 22:09 |
| Stemming78 | bash: cd: /path/to/mounted/dir: No such file or directory | 22:10 |
| tgm4883_laptop | .... | 22:10 |
| tgm4883_laptop | Stemming78, can you post the command you used to mount the drive? | 22:10 |
| Stemming78 | sure | 22:10 |
| Stemming78 | sudo mount -t cifs //192.168.1.100/Movies /var/lib/mythtv/videos -o username=corey,password=,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777 | 22:12 |
| tgm4883_laptop | ok, try this | 22:12 |
| tgm4883_laptop | ls /var/lib/mythtv/videos/ | 22:13 |
| Stemming78 | *dont have a password set | 22:13 |
| Stemming78 | *on the vista machine | 22:13 |
| Stemming78 | sudo mount -t cifs //192.168.1.100/Movies ls /var/lib/mythtv/videos -o username=corey,password=,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777 | 22:13 |
| Stemming78 | correct | 22:13 |
| tgm4883_laptop | no | 22:14 |
| tgm4883_laptop | wait | 22:14 |
| tgm4883_laptop | do this command at the command line | 22:14 |
| tgm4883_laptop | ls /var/lib/mythtv/videos/ | 22:14 |
| lime4x4 | is it possible to have 2 folders for video? | 22:15 |
| weiser | When I play DVD on my system, I have a blue line at the bottom og at the rigth side, anybody know how to remove them? | 22:15 |
| hmmm32 | hello | 22:16 |
| tgm4883_laptop | !ask | hmmm32 | 22:16 |
| ubotu | hmmm32: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-) | 22:16 |
| hmmm32 | !ask | 22:17 |
| hmmm32 | huh | 22:17 |
| tgm4883_laptop | hmmm32, ask your questiono | 22:17 |
| hmmm32 | oh | 22:17 |
| hmmm32 | I'm trying to get the channel list from schedules direct | 22:17 |
| Stemming78 | shows a list of movies.... maybe a prob here however... I loaded these movies on the machine already. Trying to delete them now and get "permission denied | 22:17 |
| hmmm32 | when i do the fetch channels in mythbuntu | 22:17 |
| hmmm32 | nothing hapens | 22:18 |
| Stemming78 | Either it mounted, or it is files I already have on the drive | 22:18 |
| tgm4883_laptop | hmmm32, did you set it up in mythtv-setup | 22:18 |
| hmmm32 | yes | 22:18 |
| tgm4883_laptop | hmmm32, did you run mythfilldatabase? | 22:18 |
| hmmm32 | ya | 22:18 |
| hmmm32 | im updating the mythbox right now | 22:19 |
| tgm4883_laptop | Stemming78, are there movies on there that were not on the drive before? | 22:19 |
| tgm4883_laptop | hmmm32, any error messages? | 22:19 |
| hmmm32 | hopfully no | 22:19 |
| tgm4883_laptop | lime4x4, you can, but you need to mount one of the folders inside another | 22:19 |
| hmmm32 | when i click the fetch button nothing happens | 22:19 |
| Stemming78 | Im not sure... any reason for them to be "locked"? | 22:19 |
| hmmm32 | i doesn't look like it's trying to do anything | 22:19 |
| tgm4883_laptop | Stemming78, well you most likely do not have write permission | 22:20 |
| Stemming78 | real stupid I didnt delete them first... | 22:20 |
| hmmm32 | im thinking there's a setting somewhere thats wrong | 22:21 |
| hmmm32 | i dunno | 22:21 |
| hmmm32 | oh btw | 22:21 |
| hmmm32 | this is my first mythtv setup | 22:21 |
| tgm4883_laptop | hmmm32, how did you start mythtv-setup? | 22:22 |
| Stemming78 | It is mounting... Just set it to music directory and all movies are showing doing a "dir" command on directory path | 22:22 |
| hmmm32 | somewhere in the setting there was one called mythbuntu | 22:22 |
| Stemming78 | *mounted movies to Music directory | 22:22 |
| hmmm32 | then clicked the setup option | 22:22 |
| hmmm32 | under myth tv control panel | 22:22 |
| Stemming78 | hmmm32: did you run MythTV Backend Setup and "fetch channels" after inputting your http://www.schedulesdirect.org/ account information | 22:24 |
| hmmm32 | yes | 22:24 |
| hmmm32 | that worked | 22:24 |
| hmmm32 | the lineup was found | 22:25 |
| hmmm32 | but when i try to get the channel info off the lineup | 22:25 |
| hmmm32 | it doesn't do anything | 22:25 |
| tgm4883_laptop | Stemming78, sounds good, now we just need to stick it in fstab | 22:25 |
| Stemming78 | So it shows the account name you setup at schedules direct underneith the username/password after performing "fetch" | 22:26 |
| Stemming78 | tgm4883_laptop: | 22:26 |
| hmmm32 | im confused | 22:26 |
| lime4x4 | well it's actually a whole hard drive so instead i've having the drive mount in /media just have the drive mount in the default video folder? | 22:26 |
| hmmm32 | i shows the lineup name | 22:26 |
| hmmm32 | after i tell it to fetch that | 22:26 |
| tgm4883_laptop | lime4x4, probably easiest to setup a sym link to the video folder | 22:26 |
| lime4x4 | ok | 22:27 |
| Stemming78 | tgm4883_laptop: lets do it together than... I am REAL BAD with this portion. | 22:27 |
| tgm4883_laptop | Stemming78, you will need to edit the /etc/fstab file and add a line like this for both mounts | 22:27 |
| tgm4883_laptop | /netbiosname/sharename /media/sharename cifs credentials=/root/.smbcredentials,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777 0 0 | 22:27 |
| tgm4883_laptop | ^^ note, that is all one line | 22:28 |
| tgm4883_laptop | hmmm32, what type of card? | 22:28 |
| tgm4883_laptop | hmmm32, tuner card that is | 22:28 |
| hmmm32 | air2pc | 22:28 |
| tgm4883_laptop | hmm | 22:28 |
| tgm4883_laptop | have you tried scanning for channels? | 22:29 |
| hmmm32 | does the 64 bit version of mythbuntu have a lot of bugs | 22:29 |
| hmmm32 | no | 22:29 |
| tgm4883_laptop | no | 22:29 |
| hmmm32 | ok | 22:29 |
| tgm4883_laptop | try scanning for it | 22:29 |
| * tgm4883_laptop runs 64-bit version | 22:29 | |
| * foxbuntu also runs 64 | 22:29 | |
| hmmm32 | ok | 22:30 |
| hmmm32 | after i finishes updating | 22:30 |
| tgm4883_laptop | in order for us to stop the myth that 64-bit isn't as good as 32-bit, we have actually added bugs to the 64-bit version so they will have an equal amount with the 32-bit version | 22:30 |
| Stemming78 | tgm4883_laptop: so forgo the document https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and enter the command line you inputted... Each boot will auto mount the drive; gstab is a init.d file? | 22:30 |
| tgm4883_laptop | gstab? | 22:31 |
| Stemming78 | *fstab | 22:31 |
| tgm4883_laptop | /etc/fstab is what mounts all your drives during boot | 22:31 |
| tgm4883_laptop | well, it's where the info is stored | 22:31 |
| Stemming78 | sweet... . HOW EASY was that. | 22:31 |
| hmmm32 | lol | 22:31 |
| Stemming78 | which directory has the posters? | 22:32 |
| Stemming78 | *for movies? | 22:32 |
| tgm4883_laptop | /home/username/.mythtv/mythvideo/ or something like that | 22:33 |
| Stemming78 | thank you.... Here is the first mount point: #MUSIC | 22:36 |
| Stemming78 | /192.168.1.100/Music /var/lib/mythtv/music cifs credentials=/root/.smbcredentials,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777 0 0 | 22:36 |
| Stemming78 | verify? | 22:37 |
| tgm4883_laptop | appears to be ok | 22:39 |
| Stemming78 | tgm4883_laptop: currently deleting the videos of the Myth drive.... Will try after deletion is complete. | 22:54 |
| Stemming78 | Is there a trick to getting the Snapstream remote to function properly | 22:55 |
| Stemming78 | .... I used the .lircrc and Lircd.conf (Fedora 7) taken from; http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Snapstream_Firefly... Changed the name on /etc/hardwre.conf to "Snapstream" so it matches Lircd.conf | 22:56 |
| Stemming78 | Currently some of the buttons work, but many are not... Including the buttons I setup in Mythfrontend with jump points. | 22:57 |
| tgm4883_laptop | do they work in irw? | 22:57 |
| Stemming78 | Yah, will get output for EACH button with correct name... example: 0000001455800000 00 FIREFLY Snapstream | 23:00 |
| Stemming78 | That is the MAIN button that should put me to the Main Menu (jump point) | 23:01 |
| tgm4883_laptop | but IRW doesn't say that it is the MAIN button? | 23:01 |
| tgm4883_laptop | what do buttons that work say when pressed? | 23:01 |
| Stemming78 | Button that works: 00000014749f0000 00 RIGHT Snapstream | 23:04 |
| tgm4883_laptop | and button that doesn't work? | 23:05 |
| Stemming78 | Another button that doesnt: 00000014f5200000 00 EXIT Snapstream | 23:05 |
| tgm4883_laptop | ok | 23:05 |
| tgm4883_laptop | can you pastebin your .lircrc file? | 23:05 |
| Stemming78 | never done this | 23:07 |
| Stemming78 | sorry | 23:07 |
| tgm4883_laptop | !pastebin | Stemming78 | 23:07 |
| ubotu | Stemming78: pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic) | 23:07 |
| tgm4883_laptop | open up your .lircrc file in gedit, and copy and paste it into a pastebin, then post the link here | 23:08 |
| Stemming78 | Syntax? | 23:08 |
| tgm4883_laptop | gedit ~/.lircrc | 23:10 |
| Stemming78 | Yah, I got that, what would you like for me to save it as at Pastebin: several options | 23:10 |
| tgm4883_laptop | oh, none | 23:11 |
| foxbuntu | Text only Stemming78 | 23:12 |
| tgm4883_laptop | foxbuntu, you going to be around for awhile? | 23:13 |
| foxbuntu | prob | 23:13 |
| foxbuntu | playing CoD4 though | 23:14 |
| tgm4883_laptop | ok, cause I have a final in 16 minutes that i will have to sign off for | 23:15 |
| tgm4883_laptop | foxbuntu, wii? | 23:15 |
| foxbuntu | PS3 | 23:15 |
| tgm4883_laptop | ah | 23:15 |
| tgm4883_laptop | i never guess right | 23:15 |
| foxbuntu | lol | 23:15 |
| Stemming78 | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60229/ | 23:17 |
| Stemming78 | Here is the problem.... It was working on the "original" lircrc file... I had updated the ~mythtv and not MY lircrc file... After updating it with the file pasted, nothing works... Must be my lircrc file that is not working | 23:19 |
| tgm4883_laptop | and the exit button doesn't go back in the menus? | 23:20 |
| Stemming78 | Nothing works now as I used MY .lircrc file which was taken off the wiki. Before, it was using Snapstream X10 (auto created at setup). | 23:21 |
| Stemming78 | *updated the lircrc as I noticed it was NOT the correct file ---> aftwards it doesnt work... Am I making sence here? | 23:22 |
| tgm4883_laptop | did you restart the frontend? | 23:22 |
| tgm4883_laptop | after changing the file? | 23:23 |
| Stemming78 | yah... /etc/init.d/lirc restart | 23:23 |
| Stemming78 | and rebooted... | 23:23 |
| tgm4883_laptop | interestign | 23:23 |
| tgm4883_laptop | foxbuntu, any ideas | 23:23 |
| Stemming78 | I know... strange.... Again, using the http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60229/ | 23:24 |
| foxbuntu | Stemming78, use MCC to configure the remote | 23:24 |
| Stemming78 | Thats what I did, but it is for the Snapstream X10.... I have the Firefly... | 23:24 |
| foxbuntu | Stemming78, the firefly is in there some where too | 23:25 |
| Stemming78 | It was somewhat working when I changed the LIRCD.conf and HARDWARE.conf to reflect Snapstream Firefly but used the lircrc from "autoconfig | 23:25 |
| foxbuntu | hmm | 23:26 |
| Stemming78 | After replacing the "autoconfigured" file with the (Fed 7) found at http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Snapstream_Firefly it isnt working | 23:26 |
| Stemming78 | IRW shows output.... problem HAS to be in the lircrc. | 23:26 |
| Stemming78 | I was not able to locate the firefly in MCC | 23:27 |
| Stemming78 | checking again | 23:27 |
| foxbuntu | Stemming78, do this..use irrrecord to create a new lircd.conf and then run mythbuntu-lircrc-generator | 23:27 |
| Stemming78 | what if I just ran the mythbuntu-lircrc-generator | 23:28 |
| Stemming78 | had this lircd.conf working great on Mythdora; before I switched | 23:29 |
| foxbuntu | Stemming78, that would work as well | 23:29 |
| Stemming78 | This is weird... it is now working again, but same buttons which did not work prior, arent again.... OK, EXIT, ENT and defined jump points... | 23:34 |
| Stemming78 | new lircrc file | 23:34 |
| Stemming78 | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60233/ | 23:34 |
| foxbuntu | Stemming78, not all buttons will map | 23:35 |
| foxbuntu | m-l-g will map the basics | 23:35 |
| foxbuntu | because the name space for the buttons is so strange in lirc right now we just cant | 23:35 |
| foxbuntu | but I am working on a soultion to that very issue and hope to have it ready for 8.10 | 23:35 |
| Stemming78 | So, I suppose I will need to mod this file to reflect the orig file I had - that should work.... Or just wait until 8.10 | 23:36 |
| foxbuntu | lol...either way yea | 23:36 |
| foxbuntu | you should have all the basics, play pause, skip ectr | 23:37 |
| Stemming78 | Ahh, great! either way, a fix! | 23:37 |
| foxbuntu | -r | 23:37 |
| Stemming78 | tgm4883 signed off? | 23:37 |
| grout | when i hit 'watch tv' the screen just goes black | 23:39 |
| grout | anyone have ideas? | 23:40 |
| MUS4SHIII | anyone have any experience with mythtvfs? | 23:40 |
| MUS4SHIII | Sorry, I'm decent user, but not much for support yet. | 23:40 |
| Stemming78 | Is there any reason for "loading..." to appear and stay static when in Video Manager? Permits me from entering Title or manually grabbing IMDB | 23:41 |
| MUS4SHIII | do you know if your backend is working properly? also, do you know if your frontend is connecting to the backend? | 23:42 |
| Stemming78 | grout: You should look in your front and backend logs to see what errors are ocurring. They should be located in: | 23:43 |
| Stemming78 | /var/log/mythtv | 23:43 |
| grout | 2008-03-19 19:06:10.348 TV Error: StartRecorder() -- timed out waiting for recorder to start | 23:45 |
| grout | 2008-03-19 19:06:10.348 TV Error: LiveTV not successfully started | 23:45 |

| grout | 2008-03-19 19:06:10.392 DPMS Reactivated. | 23:45 |
| grout | why wouldnt the recorder start? | 23:46 |
| Stemming78 | grout: check Information Center/System Status/Tuner Status | 23:47 |
| grout | Ok | 23:47 |
| grout | tuner status is not recording | 23:48 |
| Stemming78 | Are you up to date on updates? | 23:49 |
| grout | yes | 23:49 |
| Stemming78 | make any changes? | 23:49 |
| grout | no its never worked | 23:49 |
| grout | i just set this box up | 23:49 |
| Stemming78 | Video card? | 23:49 |
| Stemming78 | Tuner Card? | 23:49 |
| grout | nvidia geforce 5900 | 23:49 |
| grout | hauppage pvr-150 | 23:50 |
| Stemming78 | Backend Setup option 5l; could you scan for channels | 23:50 |
| hmmm32 | when i do the channel scan should it have at least some noise on each channel? | 23:50 |
| MUS4SHIII | anyone have any experience with mythtvfs? | 23:51 |
| Stemming78 | sorry MUS4SHIII, nope | 23:51 |
| Stemming78 | Seems like a setup issue ATM | 23:52 |
| Stemming78 | hardware is all good? cabling and such... | 23:52 |
| MUS4SHIII | :( It works great, but I can't get it to mount at bootup in the fstab. It works with "sudo mount -a" but not at startup. | 23:52 |
| Stemming78 | I am in the process of setting mine up as we speak MUS4SHIII so I would be of NO help! | 23:54 |
| MUS4SHIII | It was really easy to set up for me, but it just won't mount automatically in the fstab. I'm thinking of putting the bash command in rc.local to mount it that way as a workaround, but that just seems sloppy to me. | 23:55 |
| hmmm32 | when i scan it keeps saying timout | 23:55 |
| hmmm32 | will the channels found say something else | 23:55 |
| Stemming78 | grout: Check your cabling... Then I would walk through the Backend Setup again then mythfilldatabase | 23:56 |
| hmmm32 | or is it finding no channels | 23:56 |
| Stemming78 | hmmm32: you dont need to do a channel scan (option 5) | 23:56 |
| hmmm32 | what is that? | 23:56 |
| Stemming78 | Backend Setup | 23:57 |
| Stemming78 | option 5 | 23:57 |
| hmmm32 | huh? | 23:57 |
| Stemming78 | You did run MythBackend Setup? | 23:57 |
| hmmm32 | yes | 23:57 |
| hmmm32 | just skip channel scan | 23:57 |
| hmmm32 | and goto 5 | 23:57 |
| Stemming78 | What is your tuner card | 23:58 |
| Stemming78 | hmmm32: what type of tuner card is installed in the machine | 23:59 |
