Stemming78Trying to mount MUSIC and POSTER from my Vista machine....  Getting error:  mount error 20 = Not a directory00:14
MUS4SHIIIcan anyone help me with mythtvfs fstab config?00:17
Stemming78MUS4SHIII:  this may be of help: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=28313100:20
MUS4SHIIIthanks, I'll read through this.00:21
weiserhmm, anyone got Mythstream to work in the new .21 version?00:24
rhpot1991weiser: not backported, its in the process00:24
weisercool, is the a place where I can see what the backport team working on?00:25
Stemming78Trying to setup my share from Vista machine still rhpot1991...  Can you assist00:34
Stemming78Need assitance with FSTAB:  mounting 3 folders from my Vista Machine00:36
rhpot1991weiser: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gutsy-backports/+bug/20298800:36
rhpot1991Stemming78: I don't have Vista, but you can ask and we will see if me or anyone knows00:37
Stemming78I can mount my Video directory using sudo mount -t cifs //192.168.1.100/Movies /var/lib/mythtv/videos -o username=corey,password=,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=077700:38
Stemming78Editing FSTAB with: /192.168.1.100/Movies    /var/lib/mythtv/videos        cifs    credentials=/root/.smbcredentials,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777 0 000:39
Stemming78At boot, it will FAIL00:40
rhpot1991do a sudo mount /var/lib/mythtv/videos, with that in your fstab00:40
rhpot1991see if it gives a failure message00:41
rhpot1991also why the heck are you using /root?00:41
rhpot1991you are missing a / at the very front of that line too, should be //servername/sharename00:43
Stemming78That might be the prob...  Tried to bi-pass the smbcred and reboot... hung abain00:44
Stemming78Would this put cred at root:  sudo chown root .smbcredentials00:45
rhpot1991no, chown changes the owner00:46
rhpot1991ideally you prob want that in your home directory00:46
Stemming78I have it at ~/corey00:46
rhpot1991if your user name is corey then ~ should point at /home/corey/00:47
rhpot1991so that would be in /home/corey/corey00:47
Stemming78location:  home/corey/,smbcredentials00:50
Stemming78So, should read:00:50
Stemming78//192.168.1.100/Movies    /var/lib/mythtv/videos        cifs    credentials=/home/corey/.smbcredentials,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777 0 000:50
rhpot1991not sure about "iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777" but the rest looks ok00:52
rhpot1991try to sudo mount /var/lib/mythtv/videos00:52
rhpot1991and see what happens00:52
Stemming78All the movies are in Video Manager00:53
Stemming78reboot?00:54
rhpot1991no need00:54
rhpot1991unless you want to check it00:54
rhpot1991this isn't windows :P00:54
Stemming78what command can I use to use the fstab file00:55
rhpot1991that happens automagically on boot00:55
rhpot1991you can force something to mount like I said above00:56
Stemming78so I do need to reboot the box to verify mounting instructions will work...  :P00:56
Stemming78ahh, had a good laugh there.00:57
rhpot1991if it mounts with mount then it should mount when booting00:57
rhpot1991but feel free to test if you want00:57
abarbacciahello all - can i ask a question about mythbuntu hardy alpha 4?00:57
Stemming78Yah, I knew it would mount... just had command setup wrong;  missing / probably was NOT good.00:58
abarbacciaanybody using a serial blaster with it successfully?00:58
rhpot1991that and the wrong path to the credentials file would make it fail00:58
Stemming78Yah, your right..00:59
Stemming78Help with this one... Get error 20 when trying to mount the MUSIC and POSTER locations00:59
Aquahallicsuperm1: you around??01:01
Stemming78sudo mount -t cifs //192.168.1.100/Music /var/lib/mythtv/music -o username=corey,password=,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=07701:01
Stemming78mount error 20 = not a directory01:01
rhpot1991sounds like your /var/lib/mythtv/music doesn't exist01:02
abarbacciaehh, nevermind guys - looks like it was just positioning it on the box correctly01:04
Stemming78That is the default location;  verified General Settings and it has this address01:05
rhpot1991Stemming78: yes, but verify its actually there, I bet you its not01:06
AquahallicStemming78: try going to the dir from the cli01:06
Stemming78I open the player, after cli?01:07
Stemming78*cli?01:07
AquahallicCommand Line Interface01:07
rhpot1991accessories>termainal01:07
rhpot1991then cd /var/lib/mythtv01:07
rhpot1991and ls to see whats there01:08
Aquahalliceven if you see music there.. make sure it's not a link...:)01:08
Stemming78Its there and contains 1 track I just cp'ed to it01:08
Aquahallicyou sure it's not a link?01:09
Stemming78cd /var/lib/mythtv/music01:09
Stemming78that would be the file structure correct?01:09
Aquahallicyup01:09
Aquahallicdo that then look to make sure it doesn't link you to somewhere else01:10
rhpot1991cd /var/lib/mythtv01:10
krznpskhi, i'm booting the mythtv 7.10 iso for the 1st time and the screen goes blank and stays that way before i get to any kind of GUI.  is this normal?01:10
rhpot1991ls -la01:10
Stemming78I did...  cd /var/lib/mythtv/music    -> contains 1 track in folder01:10
krznpskmythbuntu 7.10, that is01:11
rhpot1991a link will show -> pointing at where the link goes01:11
rhpot1991it shouldn't be a link01:11
Stemming78NO, just visually telling you what is in the folder01:11
Stemming78hold a sec... rebooted to check the MNT sititation01:12
AquahallicYou can't mount to a dir that's not empty I don't think01:12
Stemming78CRAP: videos STILL wont mount.01:12
Stemming78I was thinking that so I cped a music file into it.01:13
Stemming78*after the fact01:13
Aquahallicrm it then try to mount it01:13
rhpot1991check the permissions too, make sure it matches your video directory01:14
Stemming78check permissions cmd please?  still in learning phase....01:14
krznpskpretty messed up that it won't boot since i am already running ubuntu on the same box01:15
Aquahallicls -al will show you01:15
krznpskis there an option to run the mythbuntu installer from a running ubuntu install?01:15
Stemming78videos is showing drwxrwxrwx     1     root    root01:17
Stemming78music, pictures, recordings...01:17
Stemming78drwxrwsr-x     2      mythtv    mythtv01:18
rhpot1991thats right, thats because you have a cifs share on videos01:18
Aquahallicrhpot1991:  what's the s??01:19
Aquahallicthat a typo??01:19
rhpot1991paste your line agian01:19
rhpot1991no, its a sticky bit01:19
Aquahallicahh01:19
Stemming78No, s for music and recordings...   pictures shows x01:20
Aquahallicwhat user he logged in as??01:20
Stemming78*same charactor location01:20
AquahallicStemming78:  you logged in as mythtv??01:20
Stemming78Logged in under user account01:21
rhpot1991Aquahallic: shouldn't matter, since root mounts01:21
rhpot1991Stemming78: paste your line again01:21
Aquahallictrue true01:21
Stemming78http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60244/01:23
Stemming78VIDEO mounted at boot...  hurray for me!!!01:23
Stemming78actually, cudos to you guys!01:24
rhpot1991Stemming78: modify that and put the line you are trying to mount the music with01:24
Stemming78sudo mount -t cifs //192.168.1.100/Music /var/lib/mythtv/music -o username=corey,password=,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=07701:25
Stemming78that?01:25
rhpot1991ya01:25
rhpot1991you are missing a 7 on the end01:25
rhpot1991try just copying your other line in fstab, and plug in the music directory and shares instead01:26
rhpot1991then use sudo mount /var/lib/mythtv/music to test it01:26
Stemming78http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60245/01:26
Stemming78that would be a typo.01:27
Stemming78Im not followign you with that:   try just copying your other line in fstab, and plug in the music directory and shares instead01:28
Stemming78Thats essentually what I have done...  Will try again as the // and creds  are correct now.01:29
rhpot1991do it in your fstab though01:29
rhpot1991since that works01:29
rhpot1991make a copy of that line and swap out the video stuff for music stuff01:30
Stemming78yah, but videos will mount with that command.01:30
rhpot1991as they are esentially the same, just different locations01:30
Stemming78corey@MythFrontend:/tmp$ sudo cp fstab /etc/fstab01:33
Stemming78corey@MythFrontend:/tmp$ sudo mount /var/lib/mythtv/music01:33
Stemming78[mntent]: warning: no final newline at the end of /etc/fstab01:33
Stemming78mount error 20 = Not a directory01:33
Stemming78Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g.man mount.cifs)01:33
Stemming78corey@MythFrontend:/tmp$01:33
Stemming78That would be a "no go"01:33
Stemming78gonna try to create another directory, change path in Frontend, and mount...01:34
Stemming78MP3 work for a dir name?01:35
tgm4883Stemming78, you need it to be /var/lib/mythtv/music/01:35
tgm4883not01:35
tgm4883/var/lib/mythtv/music01:35
rhpot1991when I said copy, I meant the last line, not the whole file01:36
rhpot1991just make a copy of your videos line, and put it below that and make it your music line01:37
rhpot1991each line there mounts a drive01:37
Stemming78ok, going to post my fstab....  give me a sec01:39
Stemming78http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60246/01:39
Stemming78Videos mounts, have not tried after adding "/" at end of music01:40
rhpot1991tgm4883: I don't think it matters if you end with a / or not, I don't for my nfs shares01:40
Stemming78Having the same problem with POSTERS01:41
tgm4883hmm, perhaps it's only with symbolic links01:42
rhpot1991Stemming78: same error?01:43
tgm4883whats the error01:43
rhpot1991have you verified that the shares exist under those exact names, and that the user in your credentials file has access to them?01:43
Stemming78Mount error 20 - Not a directory01:45
Stemming78yes and no... Credentials should work as Videos directory is pulling information.01:46
Stemming783 shared directorys on the Vista box:  MUSIC, POSTERS, MOVIES01:46
rhpot1991not sure if vista shares are case sensitive or not, worth checking01:47
rhpot1991"Make sure that the user has permission to both access the share and the folder within Windows (Sharing and Security tabs)."01:48
rhpot1991from the interweb01:48
Stemming78think I got it guys01:49
abarbacciaanybody else getting segfaults from lirc01:50
Stemming78Was checking the "sharing" when you where asking me to...  but, had to set it to "everyone"... Was set to "corey" which is the account I am logging in at...  wierd01:50
Stemming78THANK YOU!01:51
Stemming78*Movies were set to everyone!01:51
Stemming78Sorry for that...  my error...01:51
Stemming78As you may have guessed, finalizing my setup ATM...  Is there a way to fix VIDEO MANAGER so it will finish a load....   When I enter it, LOADING....   stays on page (static) so it prevents me from editing a movie title and using the MANUAL IMDB01:54
MUS4SHIIIanyone know how to get "switch_audio" to work in mplayer?01:54
Stemming78This is strange:  MUSIC mounts and shows music in directory...   Trying to access them in MythMusic; only seeing the 1 track I had copied into the directory prior to getting it mounted.  Anything needing to be done to "bring them in" like Video Manager would do.02:05
MUS4SHIIINo mplayer gurus in here eh?02:06
abarbacciai'm really having trouble with the serial blaster in mythbuntu - anybody have any luck with it (8.04 beta)02:08

MythbuntuGuest28do you mean mythweb.apache.conf? and it should match the settings in /etc/mythtv/mysql.txt?04:26
rhpot1991MythbuntuGuest28: ya04:27
MythbuntuGuest28ok the password was wrong, i changed it, but still doesnt work, is a restart required for the settings to take effect?04:31
rhpot1991sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart04:32

rhpot1991verify that password is correct04:51
rhpot1991can try rebooting I guess04:51
MythbuntuGuest28i did try rebooting, ill double check the password again, but im pretty sure its right now04:52

Gibson82Good evening all.04:55
Gibson82Can anyone direct me to some resources on adding files from a windows network share to the frontend?05:05
MythbuntuGuest28samba?05:06
MythbuntuGuest28https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MythTV/Install/Server/WhatNext/Samba05:07
Gibson82Sorry, should have specified more info. I've got Samba running, have the shares mapped/mount to the desktop. I can see them fine...just don't know where to go in the front end to add it to the library and such05:09
MythbuntuGuest28pictures? music? what are you sharing?05:10
MythbuntuGuest28should be in the settings section for whichever plugin your using for the type of file it is05:11
Gibson82music, video05:11
Gibson82I can't seem to add a directory05:12
Gibson82Couldn't find an option to browse to it.05:12
MythbuntuGuest28just type in the mount point of the share05:12
MythbuntuGuest28for example /home/dennis/windowsShare/music05:13
MythbuntuGuest28i think05:13
MythbuntuGuest28of course it would depend on where you have the shares mounted05:14
tgm4883_laptopGibson82, try this05:14
tgm4883_laptopsudo mount -t cifs //netbiosname/sharename /media/sharename -o guest,iocharset=utf805:14

rhpot1991MythbuntuGuest28: same error or something different?05:16
MythbuntuGuest28same error05:17
MythbuntuGuest28http://pastebin.com/m7125fbe7 here is the error05:18
rhpot1991pastebin your mythweb.apache.conf (make sure you strike out your password)05:19
MythbuntuGuest28ok05:19
Gibson82ok, sorry about the delay-the shares are perm mounted as far as I can tell. I rebooted earlier and they popped back up on the desktop, so I would say they are there to stay. Basically what I'm looking for is where in the front end menu do you add these? I've looked around and haven't found a place. Plus, there are multiple shares I need to add.05:23
MythbuntuGuest28http://pastebin.com/m2d40d91905:25
rhpot1991Gibson82: is 192.168.0.2 a backend accessible to other boxes?05:26
MythbuntuGuest28yes05:27
rhpot1991sorry not gibson there05:27
rhpot1991so other backends/frontends are verified to connect to it with that same password?05:27
MythbuntuGuest28ive only actually tried with mythtv player on a windows machine and it didnt need a password05:28
MythbuntuGuest28havent set up another frontend yet05:28
rhpot1991well, does mythweb live on the same box as your backend?05:29
MythbuntuGuest28yes05:29
tritiumMythbuntuGuest28: I think mythweb (or something in mythtv that takes schedules direct data) is broken right now05:30
rhpot1991try changing that to 127.0.0.1 and see what happens, remember the old one though incase you need to change back05:30
rhpot1991you can just copy the line and put a # in front of the old one05:31
MythbuntuGuest28ok05:31
tritiummythweb channel listings are broken for me, after the recent upgrade to 0.105:31
tritium0.21*05:31
tritiumOnly a small subset of the local HD channels, though.05:32
tritiumAnd I verified that the raw XML file from SD is good.05:32
rhpot1991tritium: did you verify that db info exists?05:33
rhpot1991might want to check out the fill database commands for regrabbing the channels05:34
tritiumrhpot1991: I don't know how, but it's only about 4 channels, out of several, that show NO DATA05:34
tritiumThe other HD channels do have data.  It's quite bizarre, and a local friend is having the same issue.05:34
rhpot1991sounds like your listings have no data05:34
tritiumThe raw XML checked out.  I submitted a service request to SD, and I followed the procedures to check it.05:35
tritium(It also checks out on Couch Potato on the Mac)05:35
tritiumrhpot1991: I'm not too concerned at the moment.  I plan to wipe and reinstall when 8.04 comes out05:36
MythbuntuGuest28i changed that and restarted apache2 and noticed something05:36
tritiumrhpot1991: thanks for your help, though :)05:37
MythbuntuGuest28apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.1.1 for ServerName05:37
MythbuntuGuest28should i use that instead of 127.0.0.1?05:37
rhpot1991tritium: np, if you get bored you can look at the mythfilldatabase command, there is an option to refresh the current days data05:37
rhpot1991MythbuntuGuest28: nope05:37
rhpot1991did 127.0.0.1 help at all?05:38
tritiumrhpot1991: ah, thanks.  I'll check it out.05:38
MythbuntuGuest28nope still the same error05:38
MythbuntuGuest28ive been reading http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-592340.html05:49
MythbuntuGuest28would uninstall/purging mythweb and apache and reinstalling be a good idea?05:49
rhpot1991shouldn't need to, and if you do I'd only do mythweb05:50
rhpot1991theoretically you would be starting from scratch05:50
rhpot1991what version of mythbuntu are you running?05:50
MythbuntuGuest28one of the recent 8.4 betas05:51
MythbuntuGuest28im not sure exactly when i got it, a couple of weeks ago05:51
rhpot1991you sure its up to date and all?05:51
rhpot1991I had to go and fix my password, but it just worked after that05:52
MythbuntuGuest28yep, it took a coupld of days to get all the updates, but its all  up now05:52
rhpot1991the digest doesn't get turned on in the current mythweb either, so if you want password protection you need to uncomment those lines05:52
rhpot1991let me check the bugs to see if any of the password stuff was in there05:52
MythbuntuGuest28im not really conserned about protection, its an internal network05:53
MythbuntuGuest28and port forwarding is screwed up on my router so i cant get in even when i want to05:53
MythbuntuGuest28exactly what commands should i use for purging apache? the guy only listed the command for purging mythweb05:57
rhpot1991dpkg --purge <package>05:58
rhpot1991you might be safer using something like synaptec and its "complete removal"05:58
rhpot1991which does the same05:58
rhpot1991just incase it tries to pull a bunch of other stuff with it05:59
MythbuntuGuest28ok05:59
MythbuntuGuest28would mcc be the best way to reinstall mythweb after purging it and apache?06:03
MythbuntuGuest28it should get me everything i need right?06:03
MythbuntuGuest28ok i reinstalled it with mcc and now i get an index of /mythweb06:07
MythbuntuGuest28what do i need to do to actually get it going?06:07

AquahallicMornin'10:19

MythbuntuGuest28i changed the password in mythweb.conf.apache to match mysql.txt14:30
camelreefyou may want to open a bug14:30
camelreefyou problem is not that password, reaching that moment would be good14:30
MythbuntuGuest28ive had the problem for a few days, first it was giving me a database not configured error, but the reinstal of mythweb and apache last night changed that so now i get the index14:31
camelreefyou are getting the index becaus apache doesn't know about php514:32
MythbuntuGuest28so its an apache configuration problem?14:32
camelreefso far, yes14:33
camelreefdo you have libapache2-mod-php5 installed ?14:33
MythbuntuGuest28yes14:34
camelreefnormally the dependencies should bring all that together14:34
camelreefyou apache config is screwed up, that is for sure14:34
camelreefwhy and where, I don;t know14:35
camelreefbut is is not ealthy14:35
camelreefhealthy14:35
hmmm32howdy15:06
hmmm32does anyone have any expierance with the air2pc 1st gen cards15:07
hmmm32cause i got one and it doesn't get great signal15:07
hmmm32any advice15:07
hmmm32anyone here15:09
MythbuntuGuest28i was just talking to the ##php guys and they helped me get that part working, the php mods werent in /etc/apache2/mods-enabled so i coppied them from mods-avaliable15:10
MythbuntuGuest28now i get the database setup error again15:10
MythbuntuGuest28so they sent me back here to figure that out15:10
foxbuntuMythbuntuGuest28, do you run anything on apache2 other than mythweb from that machine?15:27
MythbuntuGuest28the error says make sure that mod_env is enabled in httpd.conf but /etc/apache2/httpd.conf is empty, is this the problem?15:28
foxbuntuMythbuntuGuest28, no...in Ubuntu/Debian thats different anyhow15:28
MythbuntuGuest28ok, how can i troubleshoot this problem?15:29
foxbuntuMythbuntuGuest28, easier to reload apache 2 and mythweb15:29
foxbuntuyour apache config is screwed up somewhere because mod_env should be enabled by default15:30
foxbuntuits part of the php5 hook to apache 215:30
MythbuntuGuest28ok last night i purged apache and mythweb and reinstalled them with mcc15:30
MythbuntuGuest28then i got the /mythweb index15:31
foxbuntuk15:31
foxbuntuthen its prob the php.ini15:31
MythbuntuGuest28so i coppied the php mods from avaliable to enabled15:31
MythbuntuGuest28now i get the database setup error15:31
foxbuntuso wait a min? you changed all of the php5 modules to enabled?15:32
MythbuntuGuest28yes15:32
foxbuntuyou don't need to do that15:33
MythbuntuGuest28ok thats what the php guys told me to do15:33
foxbuntuand that can provide for a security risk and a slower BE15:33
MythbuntuGuest28i should delete them then?15:33
foxbuntuyou should set php5 back to its defaults15:34
MythbuntuGuest28ok i deleted the files i had copied and tried to restart apache15:37
MythbuntuGuest28it says syntax error on line 104 of /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/mythweb.conf invalid command 'php_value' perhaps misspelled15:38
MythbuntuGuest28etc...15:38
foxbuntuMythbuntuGuest28, how did you installed mythweb to start with?15:39
MythbuntuGuest28cd a couple of weeks ago, downloaded and burned it, 8.4 beta15:40
MythbuntuGuest28its compleatly updated15:40
foxbuntutry to purge apache and php515:41
MythbuntuGuest28command for that?15:41
foxbuntusudo apt-get remove --purge apache2 php5*15:42
foxbuntuit might throw  depends errors im not sure it will let you but we will see15:42
MythbuntuGuest28it also gave me a list of no longer required and said to use apt-get autoremove15:43
MythbuntuGuest28should i do that as well?15:43
foxbuntuno15:43
MythbuntuGuest28ok15:44
foxbuntudid it fail or work?15:44
MythbuntuGuest28it worked, the only think of interest is warning: while removing mythweb, directory '/usr/share/mythtv/mythweb' not empty so not removed15:44
foxbuntuMythbuntuGuest28, do this15:45
foxbuntusudo rm -rf /usr/share/mythtv/mythweb15:45
MythbuntuGuest28done15:46
foxbuntunow:15:46
foxbuntusudo apt-get remove --purge mythweb15:46
MythbuntuGuest28package mytheb is not installed so not removed15:47
foxbuntuk15:47
MythbuntuGuest28now what is the best way to reinstall it all?15:49
foxbuntusudo apt-get install apache2 php5 php5-mysql php5-ffmpeg mythweb15:49
MythbuntuGuest28ok, now what?15:50
foxbuntutry surfing to mythweb15:51
MythbuntuGuest28unable to connect15:52
foxbuntuunable to connect to what?15:52
MythbuntuGuest28with the server15:52
foxbuntuthe SQL DB, the website?15:52
MythbuntuGuest28with the localhost15:52
foxbuntuok...15:52
foxbuntusudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart15:53
MythbuntuGuest28ok now i can connect to the localhost but not to /mythweb i get the database setup error15:53
foxbuntuok15:54
foxbuntugetting close15:54
foxbuntusudo dpkg-reconfigure myth-database15:54
MythbuntuGuest28myth-database is not installed and no info is available15:55
foxbuntuoops...think its mythtv-database15:55
MythbuntuGuest28is root right for the administrator account?15:56
foxbuntuyes for the DB15:56
foxbuntuand the password is the sudo password15:56
MythbuntuGuest28ok15:57
foxbuntudone?15:57
MythbuntuGuest28yes15:57
foxbuntudo the same thing for mythweb15:57
MythbuntuGuest28actually it says access denied for user 'root'@192.168.0.2' (using password: YES)15:58
foxbuntuwhen you go to mythweb?15:58
MythbuntuGuest28no mythtv-database15:58
foxbuntuwhen you setup mysql did you set a root password?15:59
MythbuntuGuest28i dont remember, i dont think so15:59
MythbuntuGuest28should it just be blank?15:59
* foxbuntu had a brain lapse myql doesnt auto set the root password16:00
foxbuntuif you didn't set it, then yes16:00
foxbuntubut you should set it first16:00
foxbuntuopen up MCC and set the MYSQL password then run the database reconfigure again using that password16:01
MythbuntuGuest28same problem, but it looks like we are getting somewhere, unfortunatly im late for work and havent had breakfast yet, ill be back pestering tonight, thanks for the help so far16:01
foxbuntuok16:01
bofh80hi people. we have myth running, appears to be fine, i have a 3dfx tv 200 card with the 878a chip on it. we wish to record from the svideo instead of TV. none of the guides i can find seem to help here tho, they all seem to assume recording from the TV input . . . . . can someone help?16:37
bofh80we have television and composite 1 to 3 listed on the input selections, however none of the these seem to bring up anything. i have test with xawtv and the feed is coming in on the composit 316:38

nico_good evening from Scotland18:19
=== nico_ is now known as camelreef
camelreefrhpot1991, are you there? I have a question about mythexport18:20
rhpot1991_laptopcamelreef: whats up?18:20
camelreefI looked at the script, the aspect component is not really used, is it?18:21
rhpot1991_laptophmmm, looks like I left it off the mpeg/xvid line when I redid that18:22
camelreefat least for the ipod export18:22
camelreefthe only place I can see it used if in case of the psp export18:23
rhpot1991_laptopcamelreef: for now you can just modify that command and add a "-aspect $aspect"18:23
rhpot1991_laptopI'm not really sure its needed, as the size is there18:24
camelreefI get weird exports18:24
rhpot1991_laptoptry adding it in and see if that helps you18:24
rhpot1991_laptophow are they weird?18:24
rhpot1991_laptopI'd like to go back to the original VBR lines, but they didn't work with gutsy18:25
camelreefin the UK DVB-T switches often from 16: to 4:3 you end up having both in the same recording, 16:9 before and after the show, 4:3 during the kids cartoons18:25
camelreefwhat's your experience in Hardy ?18:25
rhpot1991_laptopwhat does your recording do, then squish them?18:26
rhpot1991_laptoperrr, export18:26
camelreefyup18:26
camelreefsquish or expand18:26
rhpot1991_laptoptry tossing that aspect flag on that line and see if that helps18:28
rhpot1991_laptopif you installed from apt, the binary lives in /usr/bin/mythexport18:31
rhpot1991_laptops/binary/script18:31
camelreefyup18:31
hmmm32howdy18:31
camelreefmodified, job started18:31
hmmm32i can't get any channels to come in18:31
hmmm32i think the snr is to low18:32
hmmm32is there anyway to boost it18:32
tgm4883_laptophmmm32, you could get a better antenna, or have better antenna placement18:32
hmmm32hmm18:34
hmmm32maybe ill try aming it better18:34
camelreefbetter antenna, better cabling, get rid of cheap splitters, get rid of cheap amplifiers that are more than 4 feet of the antenna, get a masthead amplifier as close as possible from the antenna18:34
camelreefchange your plugs18:34
hmmm32it's a brand new antenna18:34
hmmm32its the air2pc card18:34
hmmm321st gen18:35
camelreefa good aim is a nice start!18:35
hmmm32i think that its a particularly sensitive card18:35
hmmm32cause my tv works fine with the same setup18:35
camelreefif it is sensitive, you should have problems18:35
camelreefnot18:35
hmmm32when i do channel scan18:35
hmmm32it says like 20 to 30% signal/noise18:36
hmmm32and only 25% tops signal18:36
hmmm32can i get maybe a filter18:36
hmmm32or something to filter out noise18:36
camelreefthere is no filtering, there is only making sure you have a stronger signal with less crap insertion18:37
camelreefrhpot1991_laptop, exported, transfering to my machine18:37
hmmm32so how do i get less crap insertion18:37
hmmm32i think i need to not be so cheap and get a better capture card18:38
hmmm32whats a good one to get18:38
hmmm32for atsc18:38
camelreefrhpot1991_laptop, niiiiice, using the aspect flag again over-rides it well for 4:3, thanks much. Trying known 16:9 now18:39
camelreefless noise insertion: change your plugs, better cabling, get rid of cheap splitters, get rid of cheap amplifiers that are more than 4 feet of the antenna, get a masthead amplifier as close as possible from the antenna18:41
camelreefrhpot1991_laptop, I read on the BB that you were working on an extension of the export script that would provide feeds, anything I could test?18:42
hmmm32is there a way to tell where the interference is comming from18:44
hmmm32could i use an fm trap18:44
camelreefthere is no easy way18:46
rhpot1991_laptopcamelreef: it pretty much done but I have been a slacker about making a GUI for configuring it18:46
camelreefcan it be configured by hand atm?18:46
* camelreef has hands ;o018:47
rhpot1991_laptopyes, but it needs a table to be created as well18:47
camelreefoh18:47
camelreeffine18:47
rhpot1991_laptopand I was possibly going to change that up some with the interface18:47
camelreefok18:47
camelreefI'll wait18:47
camelreefthe Touch is not there yet anyway, I'm just paving the road :o)18:48
rhpot1991_laptopcamelreef: I'll make sure to say something when I get that up, it will hit my PPA first and I can have you test it out then18:49
rhpot1991_laptopI might need to get a good version of ffmpeg for hardy up there as well, the current version doesn't play well with mythexport18:50
camelreefthat version is old, same as in Gutsy18:50
camelreefyou may want to lnk to a place explaining how to compile the source package with the risky option too somewhere18:51
camelreefmythexport only ises aac sound, and ffmpeg does not have encoding support by default18:51
camelreefises=uses18:51
rhpot1991_laptopold is fine, but it needs to be able to do aac, and then for things like mythweb it needs to be able to do libmp3lame18:52
camelreefI scratched my head for a while on this one, and medibuntu is not up to speed on hardy yest18:52
rhpot1991_laptopso I might just throw a version up there for people to use, need to get my devbox back up first though, been changing hardware around18:52
rhpot1991_laptopnope, I requested that they bump it but haven't gotten any responses18:52
rhpot1991_laptoptechnically you can force their older version I guess, but that might break other things18:53
camelreefI ended up cmpiling from the source package myself, with the risky option, and manually adding x264 support18:53
camelreefbut I am certainly not looking forward to supporting this myself18:54
rhpot1991_laptopin theory I should be able to just grab the hardy source and modify how it builds18:54
camelreefah, the iPod touch uses a 3:2 aspect screen...18:54
camelreefI'll have to tweak my settings18:55
rhpot1991_laptopyou can bump the res if you want as well, but I think I have it set to the highest the display can do, searching to verify that18:55
camelreefdisplay is 480x32018:56
camelreefthe script's default size is 320x24018:56
camelreefiPod Touch is 480x32018:57
camelreefClassic is 320x24018:57
rhpot1991_laptop320x240 is the default for classic/video18:57
rhpot1991_laptopya18:57
rhpot1991_laptopoverride that res for yours, get a nicer picture18:57
camelreefyup18:58
rhpot1991_laptopI have a 5g video, so some of the defaults are set to my stuff18:58
camelreefyou selfish you :o)18:58
rhpot1991_laptopI should put those in the wiki18:58
camelreefOK, usinf the aspect variable in the script works well19:01
* camelreef is happy19:01
rhpot1991_laptopcamelreef: I'll make sure that gets fixed19:02
camelreefregarding size, when you pass it HxV, it uses Y as the base, increasing X if necessary19:03
camelreefIt uses H as the base, increasing V if needed19:03
camelreefusing V as the base and decreasing H would probably be better19:04
rhpot1991_laptophow would you recommend that gets done though?  right now all I do is feed that into ffmpeg and hope the user doesn't pass in something funky19:06
camelreefI'm looking into ffmpeg's options, but it doesn't look trivial19:06
rhpot1991_laptopin the GUI you will get to pick the size from a drop down, so I won't need to worry about anything then19:06
rhpot1991_laptopI know at some point I read about putting video on the ipod which was greater than the screen res19:08
rhpot1991_laptopcause you could play it back on the TV19:08
camelreefsure19:08
camelreeffrom my selfish point of view, and a mythtv user, I will only watch an export on the iPod19:08
camelreefand a Touch is flash, so limited in storage19:08
camelreefI was trying to see if I could save a few bytes19:09
camelreefI'd rather have a 16:9 video in 480x270 than in 568x320 on a 480x320 screen19:10
rhpot1991_laptopI see what you are saying19:11
* camelreef wants a 200GB HDD-based iPod Touch19:11
rhpot1991_laptopuse the debug option in mythexport to get a ffmpeg line19:11
rhpot1991_laptopand see what the sive difference is19:11
rhpot1991_laptopffmpeg might be smart about that19:11
camelreef-s size             set frame size (WxH or abbreviation) mode (FLAC)19:12
camelreefI would love to be able to tell ffmpeg that this is the max size bracket and adjust according to the aspect19:15
camelreefit is treating it as he min size according to the aspect atm19:15
tgm4883HDD-based mp3players :(19:16
camelreeftgm4883, I'd love to have more than 32 GB in a Touch19:19
camelreefand still be able to aford it, the 32 GB price tag is high enough as it is19:19
camelreefok, let' get rid of that nvidia card and replace it with the Intel SDVO HDMI board and see if the 2.2 driver works better19:21
camelreef2.3 is close to release and includes MPEG2 XvMC :)19:22
Shred00no mythdvd or mythvideo in the 0.21 gutsy backports?19:49
rhpot1991_laptopShred00: sudo apt-get install mythvideo19:49
Shred00The following packages will be REMOVED:19:49
Shred00  mythdvd19:49
Shred00is the mythdvd package deprecated in 0.21?19:50
rhpot1991_laptopits included in mythvideo now19:50
Shred00ahhh.  cool then.  :-)19:51
zabadappi noticed that mythtv 0.21 is available for mythbuntu, but mythvideo is not checked in the list. Is that expected?19:57
rhpot1991_laptopzabadapp: sudo apt-get install mythvideo19:57
tgm4883rhpot1991_laptop, why can't i get mythdvd on my .21 machine.  It keeps saying there are conflicts19:59
foxbuntulol19:59
rhpot1991_laptopheh, shooting for 3 in a row?19:59
* foxbuntu smacks tgm4883 with a shovel19:59
* tgm4883 falls over19:59
zabadappwell, or I could just tick the checkbox in the list of updates ... just curious why that single package isn't selected by default (every other myth-related package is selected already)20:00
rhpot1991_laptopzabadapp: its cause mythdvd is now included in mythvideo, and it needs your ok to remove it20:00
lagathe default behaviour for updates is not to remove packages20:00
lagaum, i dont think applies here, ignore me..20:01
zabadappah! so the dependency for mythvideo is to remove mythdvd (since it has been merged into mythvideo) ... and that destructive action is not by default?20:02
lagai wonder why mythdvd remains installed.. it depends on libmyth-0.20 so libmyth-0.20 probably is not removed?20:03
rhpot1991_laptoplaga it does, the GUI's for updates will grey teh box out20:03
rhpot1991_laptoplaga: libmyth-0.20 doesn't get removed unless the user apt-get autoremoves it20:04
rhpot1991_laptopor removes it by hand20:04
rhpot1991_laptopzabadapp: exactly, removing is generally bad and therefor things wont do that for you without you saying to do so first20:05

lagahum21:34
lagawhat *exactly* is broken?21:34
camelreefif only I knew21:35
camelreefI get a black screen on my TV21:35
lagaso, does X come up and playback is broken or just nothing at all?21:35
camelreefand the weird part is that I had a picture at one point...21:35

camelreef1 less fan, and no more binary blob21:37
lagaheh21:37
lagamy nvidia cards are fanless21:37
camelreefI'll play some more with the Intel stuff this week end21:37
camelreefwell, when you live in the country side, you buy what is available in the local shop21:38
lagaheh21:38
lagai order from the intarwebs21:38
camelreefI intended to use the Intel stuff originally, hence the ADD2 card21:38
camelreefI was in a hurry, I wanted something that worked and that was cheap as a temporary solution21:38
camelreefI miss houston with Fry's and Microcenter 2mn away21:39
lagaheh21:39
camelreefdamn-it! Intel is the future for MythTV, nice way to add HDMI while still using the on-board chip, plus support for h/w accell for MPEG2+H.264 in the near future21:40
camelreefall that in an open driver using the fully released specs21:42
lagai wouldn't buy hardware because of promises for anything "in the near future" :) but it shouldn't be too hard to get it going21:42
lagamaybe some register isn't set correctly21:43
lagaor you broke something ;)21:43
camelreefthe 2.3 driver for Intel already has the MPEG2 XvMC in it21:43
camelreefKeith Packard is working on the rest too21:44
camelreefhe is quite an efficient guy, normally21:44
lagayeah..21:44
* laga is always jealous of efficient people ;)21:44
camelreefme? breaking something? oy! ;o)21:44

camelreefyours are not22:18
zabadappBE and FE on same machine, no remote FE's22:26
camelreefwell, your FE is sill not upgraded, that's what the message says22:27
zabadappupdated to 0.21 through the updatemanager ... do I need to reboot?22:27
camelreefrestart your FE22:28
zabadappi have taken down BE and FE to run mythtv-setup .. so they should be OK22:28
zabadappFE log says "using protocol 40"22:29
Kadorkinhi, if I install Mythbuntu is there any problem installing Apache and running Wordpress on the same box or it better to install Ubuntu server and add MythTV?  I'm new at this.22:30
camelreefzabadapp, well, someone must be speaking 31 nevertheless, the Be is not complaining out of pleasure22:31
zabadappAh! maybe I should restart apache so that mythweb is using the new upgraded version?22:31
tgm4883_laptopzabadapp, have you tried rebooting?22:32
camelreefKadorkin, depending on our machines hardware resources and number of blog visits, you could be fine, or not....22:32
zabadappno, no reboot ... that will be next up22:32
* camelreef thinks that rebooting without a kernel update is too windows-ish22:33
Kadorkincamelreef, thanks.  I'ts P4 2Ghz and the Wordpress is really for development not a live site.  looks easier to get Myth running by starting from Mythbuntu22:34
camelreefKadorkin, you should be fine22:34
tgm4883_laptopcamelreef, you can hot reboot windows too22:34
camelreefyou will already have all the pieces, Mythweb requires Apache, MythTV requires MySQL22:35
camelreeftgm4883, hot reboot, huh?22:35
tgm4883_laptopyou can restart windows without restarting the computer22:36
tgm4883_laptopthis would be equivelent to ctrl-alt-backspace22:36
Kadorkinexcellent thanks guys22:36
camelreefand here we go: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg/2008-March/034104.html22:37
tgm4883_laptopit just kinda gets me sometimes when people say that rebooting is too windows22:37
MythbuntuGuest68hi guys22:38
MythbuntuGuest68just wanted to say, that your link to the 64bit 8.04 alternate install CD is wrong and leading to nowhere!22:38
MythbuntuGuest68the correct Link would be: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/mythbuntu/daily/current/22:39
camelreefthat link shall be spanked22:39
MythbuntuGuest68^^22:40
tgm4883_laptopwhile that is technically correct.  That link was supposed to be pulled until canonical releases hardy beta22:40
tgm4883_laptopi'll fix it now22:40
MythbuntuGuest68just wanted to help you ;)22:41
tgm4883_laptopthanks22:42
tgm4883_laptopsorry foxbuntu, reflex22:43
zabadapptgm4883_laptop:  rebooting made the protocol issue go away ...22:43
tgm4883_laptopzabadapp, figured as much22:44
tgm4883_laptopyou just hadn't restarted the right thing yet22:44
camelreefoh well, bed time22:56
camelreefttyl22:56
zabadappisn't there a way to see recordings as flv on the mythweb in 0.21?22:59
Stemming78Is it possible to manually edit the lircrc file?  Everytime I do, the remote stops working and I have to re-run mythbuntu-lircrc-generator23:10
foxbuntuStemming78, if you change the lircrc you have to restart the FE app for the changes to take effect23:12
Stemming78? restart the FE app:  sudo /etc/init.d/lirc restart?23:16
Stemming78I am doing this with Front End closed - reopen it and buttons no longer work23:17
lagayou're probably doing something wrong then :)23:27
Stemming78laga:  seems I was,  edited the file in WinSCP and it seems to not have liked that.23:40
wotten_hey everyone23:48
wotten_I made a mistake and setup a slave BE as its own master....23:49
wotten_I corrected it but now when I set a program to record every week....23:50
wotten_everything looks correct but when the program is highlighted...23:50
wotten_it says that the recording is not listed.....when it really is23:51
wotten_and the program doesn't record....23:51
wotten_I can correct it by re-selecting it on the master....23:52
wotten_how can I correct the slave BE?23:52
