[01:23] when is 8.04 slated to be released? [01:23] nm.. 21 days it seems [01:31] does anyone here use a homer run hdtv box? [01:31] home* [01:31] at the risk of sounding like i know nothing at all: if i install the 8.04 beta now, will i be able to update to the full version when that is released w/o reinstalling? [01:31] ahave_ yes [01:32] c3rb3rus5, yes [01:32] sweet [01:32] foxxbuntu, was it difficult to configure with mythtv? do you know of a link to set the system up? [01:33] ahave_ its easier than setting up most tuners [01:33] oh? [01:34] i read somewhere that i should upgrade it first [01:34] yep, Mythbuntu has the config util enabled by default so in mythtv-setup you can just select HDHR and create a capture device for each tuner on the HDHR, then you can scan for channels with it [01:34] ahave_, if you havent I would suggest it just for stability [01:35] heres how to upgrade it [01:36] cd /usr/src [01:36] wget http://download.silicondust.com/hdhomerun/hdhomerun_firmware_20080305.bin [01:37] hdhomerun_config discover [01:37] that will give you the ID of your HDHR [01:37] then: [01:37] hdhomerun_config upgrade ./hdhomerun_firmware_20080305.bin [01:38] thats all there is to it ahave_ [01:39] ok === ahave_ is now known as ahave [01:42] hmm [01:43] if i have 2 linksys routers chained together, would i have to do anything special to get the second router to see the internet? [01:43] static IPs? [01:43] what? [01:44] i have 2 routers on my network, i had to add an extra one to have enouth ethernet ports [01:44] I assume your just trying to use the switch on the seoncd? [01:44] yes [01:44] do i need to set it to 'switch only' mode? [01:44] you need to turn off NAT [01:44] yea [01:44] er, switch only is what you need [01:45] well, is that considered router? [01:45] instead of gateway? [01:45] the main ubuntu channel is like a flood of people [01:45] ahave, no, just a switch [01:47] foxxbuntu, ok. i am just having trouble finding that option in the linksys admin menu [01:47] ahave: what model [01:48] wrt54g [01:48] ahave: you should just be able to disable the dhcp server and that will put it into switch mode.... i might be mistaken [01:49] so instead of dhcp i should select what? [01:49] static IP? [01:50] there is an option on the main page to disable the dhcp server on one.... i know i set this up before, i'm trying to refresh my memory [01:52] yes. i have disabled the dhcp server. but do i need to change the 'internet connection type' to something else other that DHCP? [01:55] ahave: i honestly don't remember [01:55] ahave: i would say yes.... is it working as it should now? [01:56] nope [01:56] hrm [01:56] i feel like i need to set the IP to something different [01:56] like 192.168.2.1 [01:57] so that it will be its own network [01:58] how do you have the routers connected right now [02:00] internet<->cablemodem<->wrt54G#1<->wrt54g#2(into 'internet port') [02:01] so so #1's WAN port is plugged into the modem, #2's WAN port is plugged into the ethernet ports of #1? [02:01] yes [02:03] did you try setting it (#2) to a router instead of a gateway under advanced routing? [02:06] not with DHCP disabled [02:07] the 2 routers are not set to the same IP address are they? [02:07] now i have made a much of things.. i chanaged the IP of the router and lost connection to it. so i did a hard restart and now it is acting very odd [02:08] hows it acting odd? [02:08] as in i can not obtain an IP from it [02:09] are you behine router 1 or 2? [02:10] i am using a laptop to connect to the internet right now through router 1 [02:10] the easiest way to get this to work is to disable the dhcp server on #2, and plug one of #2's ethernet ports into one of #1's eethernet ports [02:10] my mythtv box is under 2 [02:10] that should make use of the switch functionality of #2 [02:10] oh [02:10] i have never heard of that [02:11] so do not plug in the ethernet of router1 into 'internet' of router2? [02:11] but instead plug the wire into one of the 4 output ports? [02:13] WOW. that worked [02:13] i have never heard of that before [02:13] sweet [02:14] thank you very much [02:18] ahave: no prob [02:19] the other way would be to use advanced routing settings with the way you had it set up.. i'm honestly not too sure how to set them up in practice [02:25] c3rb3rus5, the issue is with the firmware linksys provides you can't turn off NAT properly so you end up double natting, this causes a packaet failure between the devices [02:30] yea? [02:31] i remember setting it up once... [02:31] on second thought i might have been using a different model they made [02:31] and that same model failing shortly after [02:31] :-/ [02:31] it was older [02:32] i have been meaning to put openwrt on my wrt54g for a while now, never got around to it [02:34] anyone here use virtualboxat all? [02:43] so now that i have the backend setup for HDhomerun, how can i select HD channels when watching liveTV? [02:44] ahave, did you scan for, and add the HD channels? [02:44] i was not able to find the HD tuner on the scan from source list [02:47] hmm, wait. i am scanning on the tunner now === tgm4883_laptop is now known as Daviey1 === Daviey1 is now known as tgm4883_laptop [05:17] Hey. Having problems setting up a Hauppauge PVR-350's video out. [05:17] I checked out this tutorial (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MythTV_Gutsy_hardware_pvr-350_TV-out), but it's not working for me still. [05:18] I'm able to cat video to the device, but X won't start into it, seemingly ignoring my xorg.conf, and videos launched from the myth frontend result in initialization errors. [05:21] Anyone have that problem? [08:58] hi all. when I watch dvd with mythbuntu then I get two vertical lines and the movie is not full screen. If I play the same movie with player or vlc then its fullscreen [09:00] is there some kind of settings that I need to change in mythubuntu? [09:17] <|DuReX|> hello, I got a new tv card, Hauppauge HVR-1300, seems like its getting seen perfectly in ubuntu dmesg output :http://pastebin.com/m61491e91 but I'm getting errors and can't use it :( [10:20] W: Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/hardy-security/Release Unable to find expected entry web/binary-i386/Packages in Meta-index file (malformed Release file?) === bq is now known as toorima [12:48] <|DuReX|> nboody awake ? :( [12:56] the hvr1300 is highly experiemntal [12:56] you probably want linuxtv hg [12:57] <|DuReX|> doesn't work there neither :( [13:00] <|DuReX|> there are tons of websites where people say it works perfectly [13:00] <|DuReX|> but I can't get it working [13:00] <|DuReX|> it gets seen perfectly etc [13:00] <|DuReX|> but just error :( [13:00] <|DuReX|> http://pastebin.com/m61491e91 [13:00] <|DuReX|> the dmesg [13:02] you're trying to use the mpeg encoder? [13:02] or the digital part? [13:03] <|DuReX|> trying to get DVB-T working [13:04] <|DuReX|> it gives those messages @ boot [13:04] <|DuReX|> when I didn't even try to access the card [13:05] those messages look related to the mpeg encoder [13:05] cx88 is the digital-related chip [13:08] do you guys support mythbuntu or ubuntu with myth installed from the repos? [13:08] TelnetManta, same difference [13:08] about to build a new backend and wondered which I should install [13:09] isnt mythbuntu an iso all in itself? myth already installed I mean. [13:09] yes [13:09] ah, there we go, I found it :) [13:10] but all the packages in mythbuntu are in ubuntu's repositories [13:10] I need to get the source code to apply some patches. guess I need to learn how to do that. I've always installed myth from source. [14:15] hi [14:15] Is this a goob board for a HTPC? http://www.via.com.tw/en/products/mainboards/motherboards.jsp?motherboard_id=550 [14:15] what do you think [14:16] via? the default answer is no [14:16] i shall now look at the url. i may laugh at you [14:16] epia. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA [14:16] ? [14:17] c7 is bullshit & chips. it can't do htpc in standard def, let alone high def [14:17] <|DuReX|> i installed latest linuxtv hg, but i'm getting: http://pastebin.com/m10375cf4 [14:17] <|DuReX|> any id's ? [14:17] directhex|work: So what mini ITX boards do you recommend? [14:18] give http://www.hexus.net/content/item.php?item=11976 a read to see how screaming fast epia is [14:18] dergringo, a mac mini's generally the best of breed for small form factor [14:19] |DuReX|, your module's crashed. talk to the linuxtv people about it [14:21] directhex|work: It may be the best in some cases. But I need at least 3 hotswappable 3.5 HD slots. So I think this one would fit my benefits: http://www.mini-itx.com/store/?c=42 [14:21] Now I am looking for a board [14:22] The one you linked is a pico-ITX board. And it is something really different that I am talking about [14:22] dergringo, my professional opinion, backed with experience, is that epia *cannot cope* with modern demands. 1ghz c7 is 1ghz c7 - still a million miles from what media needs [14:23] talk to any former epia owner in here, e.g. justinh, and you'll hear the same thing [14:23] what's a better choice? *anything else* [14:23] any board that isn't powered by an IDT WInChip is a reasonable choice [14:24] the intel D201GLY2, for example, with its screaming fast 1.2ghz celeron, will obliterate any hardware via has to offer, several times over [14:25] jetway, commell, anhd a few others will do "real" cpus on mini-itx form factor (if you want to pay for them) [14:25] i think aopen do too. i'd need to check [14:26] Cool. Thanks. I tought VIA does a good job. Well I'll have a look at the others too. [14:26] via do a terrible job [14:27] look at it this way - a c7 running at 1ghz is 3x slower than an athlon64 running at 1ghz [14:27] I just do not want to spend a lot of money, since I need raid disks and so. Else it's getting too expensive [14:28] if you want a NAS box, buy an off-the-shelf NAS box. if you want a media box, save up more money. a penny spent on epia is wasted money [14:29] aopen's range seems comprehensive - socket m, socket p, socket am2 [14:30] I don't want a off-the-shelf NAS. I need customized encryption using a USB token. I want full control over the system. [14:32] is it possible to install linux on a aopen system? [14:33] why wouldn't it be? [14:33] The IR / Remote Control of AOpen accessory is not supported under Windows XP and Windows XP MCE. [14:33] so is it supported on linux? [14:34] which board is that? [14:34] This is a full featured system: http://minipc.aopen.com/Global/spec.htm [14:35] the mac-mini-sized-and-shaped-but-slower-and-more-expensive mini aopen pc? [14:36] lol [14:36] exactly [14:36] supported in lirc cvs [14:37] that's probably better then my current mythtv system, but it's also brand new and mine is years old =p [14:38] So you recomment these boards? http://www.aopen.de/Products.aspx?id=52 [14:39] recommend is such a strong word. those are 2 possibilities worth considering, sure. like i said, anything not winchip-powered is worth a look [14:39] and a few people in here use aopen small form factor boards with intel cpus [14:40] Serial ATA II Connector x 2 :( [14:40] all of them [14:41] can those cases even fit more then 2 drives? [14:43] Kevin`: http://www.mini-itx.com/store/?c=42 Can fit 6 [15:04] mhhh maybe I should just stick in a [15:04] controller [16:08] howdy all [16:08] someone compiled the saa7134_alsa module for beta 8.04? [16:13] ? === Andy2 is now known as Andy3 === Andy3 is now known as Andy20 === Andy20 is now known as khonshu1 === khonshu1 is now known as Khonshu1 [18:17] say, has anyone checked if mythtvfs-fuse work with the current mythtv in hardy? I really should check that. :P === dergringo_ is now known as dergringo [19:00] directhex|work: http://www.tweaktown.com/reviews/1308/1/page_1_introduction/index.html [19:01] That does sound very good [20:37] dergringo: Strange lack of firewire... [20:41] I can understand the lack of optical audio out and DVI
