dthackerHi:  I'm getting really intense blurry color on my latest recordings.  I don't think" I've changed any settings?02:16
dthackerwhat should I check.  This is only on the recordings I'm playing back on myth frontend.  The monitor is not blurry or "hot"02:17
baalsgateLossif check your dmesg for audio driver problems02:19
baalsgateLossif maybe ask the guys in here if there is a way to check file imtegrity of your audio modules02:21
Lossifis there a way to select all in nano?02:22
baalsgatefiles can be messed up with a non clean power down02:22
Lossifbaalsgate: that is what I was afraid of02:37
LossifI was thinking about just going with the 8.04 RC,  If i installed it would it keep all of my existing movies and recordings?02:38
bronsonI think I have everything set up properly but when I try to Watch TV, nothing happens.03:00
bronsonTried running mythfrontend --service but nothing gets printed.03:00
bronsonThe back-end recognized my PVR-350.03:00
bronsonCan anyone suggest something for me to check?03:00
tgm4883_laptopbronson, anything in the logs?03:00
bronsonnothing in syslog.  Does myth have other logs?03:01
tgm4883_laptop/var/log/mythtv/mythbackend.log03:02
tgm4883_laptop/var/log/mythtv/mythfrontend.log03:02
bronsoncool, looking03:02
tgm4883_laptopand you can also start mythfrontend from the command line and errors will be printed to the terminal03:02
bronsonHm, I did, but I didn't see any errors.03:02
tgm4883_laptopcheck the logs then03:03
tgm4883_laptopmost specifically, the backend03:03
bronsonYa, nothing weird in frontend.03:03
bronson"Perhaps you have forgotten to bind video sources to your card's inputs?"03:05
bronsonProbably!03:05
bronsonMan it's tough to set up Myth.03:06
tgm4883_laptopwell it's a lot easier than the early days03:06
tgm4883_laptopwe can only do so much for you ;)03:06
bronsonHm...  I ran Myth a few years ago.  Doesn't seem very different to me!03:08
bronsonBut it's true that video hardware is just weird.03:08
bronsonNot easy to autodetect and set up properly.03:09

rhpot1991someone summoned me?06:28
darthanubisme06:29
rhpot1991anything new?06:29
darthanubisnope06:30
darthanubisthe job still does not work06:30
darthanubisfrom cli it works perfectly06:30
rhpot1991try to run the job cli instead of just the ffmpeg command06:31
rhpot1991also when you ran the ffmpeg did you run that as mythtv?06:32
darthanubisyup06:32
darthanubismade sure to do that06:32
darthanubiscan't run the job from cli because it expects to get the data from the database06:33
rhpot1991I still think its permission problems, mainly cause its acting that way06:33

rhpot1991but odd since you have verified mythtv can write in there06:33
darthanubiswe took care of the permission issue06:33
rhpot1991run that, but get a chanid and starttime to plug into it06:33
rhpot1991and get rid of the debug06:33
rhpot1991and by run I mean run it cli not from a user job06:34
Tuv0kknew it was the job line that was failing06:38
rhpot1991giving you anything better?06:38

rhpot1991what are yours set as?06:40

Tuv0kthat one was .nuv06:41
Tuv0kI'll try a mpg06:41
Tuv0ksame error06:44
Tuv0kI'll try the file that worked from the cli after the debug06:45
rhpot1991ya you should stick to one file so we can pinpoint it06:47
rhpot1991hopping all over introduces too many things that can go wrong06:47
Tuv0kthat one was a mpg just for reference. Attempting to use the line now06:50
Tuv0knope06:51
Tuv0kthat sucks06:52
rhpot1991makes no sense06:52
Tuv0kI'd like to meet somene who this does work for06:52

laga!ask13:31
ubotuPlease 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. :-)13:31
lagabogus-: yes.. maybe a few days later, but the plan is to release the same day13:31
bogus-ah nice, then I'll wait with installing my htpc for a few more days :)13:32
bogus-thx :)13:32
lagabogus-: you can install the RC and then upgrade. (unless you use cx88-alsa, then you should wait for the final)13:33
bogus-hmm yea that's an option too ofcourse13:33
lagait's already very stable.13:35
slundelllaga: a couple of friends experienced severe instability with mythtv 0.21, probably because of the multi-mux recording. I have a friends mythbuntu computer here, 2 analog v4l cards, mythbuntu 7.10. Should I upgrade to 8.04 and myth 021?13:41
lagaslundell: your couple of friends need to file some bug records then :)13:41
lagaslundell: never touch a running system13:41
lagaif it works and if he doesn't need the new features, let it be13:42

rhpot1991_laptopI don't see why you would want to do that16:13
rhpot1991_laptopseems like more of a mess than its worth16:13
superm1mythbuntu > fedora + mythtv, so maybe wants the niceities in mythbuntu to replace the !nicities in fedora + mythtv?16:13

rhpot1991_laptopI still think you have permission problems18:49
darthanubisthese two issues I would greatly like solved18:49
darthanubisI still think its not possible18:49
darthanubiswe've covered that, and solved it18:49
darthanubiswhere else would there be a permission issue?18:49
darthanubisif not the write dir?18:49
darthanubismakes no since for one ot work and not the other because of permissions18:50
rhpot1991_laptopwell this is testing the perms18:51
darthanubisI'm sorry?18:52
darthanubisthose permission was changed permanently18:52

darthanubisif there is another dir where I need to check the perms please tell me.18:53
rhpot1991_laptoponly 2 that should matter are where the file is exported to, and where the recording is stored at18:56
rhpot1991_laptopmake a bash script that will run your ffmpeg line that you ran by hand, and execute that from a user job, see if that runs correctly18:57
Tuv0khttp://pastebin.com/d47fdf7119:05
rhpot1991_laptopfirst, you are in the wrong directory, you aren't in your export direcotry (sometimes, not always, it will drop logs or temp files in there)19:06
rhpot1991_laptop2nd running that by hand isn't testing the user job19:06
MythbuntuGuest94afternoon....i had just downloaded the iso for 8.04 RC, and it loads to the liven enviro, but with an error of unable to load HAL....i can click through the error, but when i click on the icon to isntall, the cd spins up but that's it...nothing else is going on....I was hoping someone might have a suggestion.  I am able to use the 7.10 iso without any issue.19:08
darthanubisI think both my issues have something to do with these external apps not being able to read from the database19:09
darthanubishence the wrong file name from nuvexport, and the failure of mythexport from job level19:09
rhpot1991_laptopwell mythexport can read from it, otherwise it wouldn't have any of that info19:09
lagaMythbuntuGuest94: known problem with the linux-ubuntu-modules package. you'll have to install using the alternate disk or wait a few days for the final19:09
rhpot1991_laptopsuch as the recording location, the random info the it injects with atomicparsley19:10
lagaMythbuntuGuest94: the RC alternate disk has other problems, i'm currently testing a version which should be fixed. so if you can wait a few hours..19:10
darthanubisI think I got it19:10
darthanubismaybe19:10
rhpot1991_laptopI'm telling you this looks like permissions, or you having busted recordings19:10
darthanubisthe recordings themselves19:10
MythbuntuGuest94Laga: thank you very much, makes me feel a little better....I'll look into the alternate disk...this is the AMD64 version btw19:12
tgm4883_laptopdarthanubis, did you grab the recordings via firewire?19:12
Tuv0kno19:12
MythbuntuGuest94laga: I can definitely wait a few hours...I'm stuck at work so i have time to waste.19:12
rhpot1991_laptopare you storing them in mpeg2 raw or what?19:12
rhpot1991_laptopthats how I do mine, never really heard of anyone doing them otherwise and having problems19:13
lagaMythbuntuGuest94: if you use the RC, you'll run into the HAL problem again. you can get the iso i'm going to test now here: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/mythbuntu/daily/20080422/ but no guarantees it'll work19:13
tgm4883_laptoprhpot1991_laptop, i had problems transcoding HD recordings over fire wire19:13
rhpot1991_laptoptgm4883_laptop: odd, I have done that with success19:14
tgm4883_laptopwell it isn't always a problem19:14
rhpot1991_laptopmight be a bad stream or something19:14
tgm4883_laptopit depends on how the show is broadcast19:14
rhpot1991_laptopthen ffmpeg chokes on it19:14
rhpot1991_laptopdarthanubis: do a ls -la /home/anubis/store/mythtv/video/1002_20080411.mpg19:14
rhpot1991_laptopand then ffmpeg -i /home/anubis/store/mythtv/video/1002_20080411.mpg19:14
tgm4883_laptopie, when it goes to commercial, the cable company doesn't broadcast that in HD19:14
rhpot1991_laptopya that happens a lot19:15

mxpowerhey all, i have a quick question that Im sure has been asked before, but I cant find/search for a definative answer23:31
riddleboxtgm4883, everything is working great, I did a default install, my pvr-500 is working fine, I just need to upgrade the linuxtv drivers and add the new firmware and my hd card should work23:31
mxpoweris there an easy way to mount iso images through the frontend of mythtv? I have most of my dvd's backed up as iso's and wondering if this is possible without repeating command line items?23:32
tgm4883_laptopwhich card is it?23:32
tgm4883_laptopmxpower, use mythvideo23:33
mxpowerty, will look that up now :)23:33
avon_My Haupp. wintv-hvr-1600 works pretty well when using the latest beta cx18 drivers:  'mplayer /dev/video0' plays the analog NTSC mpeg2 stream flawlessly (both audio and video) and changing channels works with 'ivtv-tune'.  But after I configured the card on MythTV backend (on Mythbuntu along with SchedulesDirect pguide) as a PVR-x50 (as recommended by this ivtv-users mailing list posting:  http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/iv23:34
avon_tv/users/37903?search_string=cx18%20mythtv;#37903 ), I am getting only video on both LiveTV and Recordings.  When I playback one of the recordings using mplayer, mplayer report that the stream has no audio.  So I'm pretty sure its got nothing to do with the volume setting.  Has anybody with a hvr-1600 experienced this?23:34

mxpowertgm4883_laptop - I take it mythvideo isnt installed by default in mythtv and I need to run sudo apt-get install mythvideo ?23:37
tgm4883_laptophow did you install>23:38
mxpowermythbuntu 7.10 iso23:38
tgm4883_laptopstandard install?23:38
mxpoweryes23:39
tgm4883_laptopshould be installed by default23:39
mxpowerso instead of running mythtv front end, run mythvideo?23:39
tgm4883_laptopno23:39
tgm4883_laptoprun the frontend23:39
tgm4883_laptopwell23:39
tgm4883_laptopfirst23:39
tgm4883_laptopwhere are your dvd iso's stored?23:39
mxpowercurrently, they are on a separate server, but i have no problem loading them on the local share that the mythbuntu box is on23:40
tgm4883_laptopwell you can share them via NFS or samba23:40
mxpowerthey are currently shared on a server, just dont know how to load them into mythtv23:41
tgm4883_laptopah ok23:41
tgm4883_laptopwhat dir are they mounted in?23:41
mxpowerwould be 192.168.3.115\shared\images23:41
mxpowerthey arent mounted, just sitting in a folder on a fileserver23:42
tgm4883_laptopare you mounting them in fstab?23:42
mxpowerno23:42
tgm4883_laptopfrom command line?23:42
tgm4883_laptoppost the command you use to mount the server share on the mythbox23:42
mxpowernot mounted, was looking for a solution that i can browse to that share and just play the iso's or load the iso's23:43
tgm4883_laptopright23:43
tgm4883_laptopok23:43
tgm4883_laptopon the seperate server, how is it shared?23:43
riddleboxtgm4883_laptop, did you get my message23:43
BobSlobso with an nvidia card, fresh install... should i use the restricted drivers, or download envy and have it install the nvidia ones?23:43
tgm4883_laptopriddlebox, in the pm?23:44
riddleboxtgm4883_laptop, yeah23:44
riddleboxBobSlob, I used the nvidia drivers that mythbuntu had in the install23:44
mxpowertgm4883_laptop, no rush. I have a NAS (linux based) fileserver that i use to store my iso's on.23:45
tgm4883_laptopmxpower, ok genericallly, this is what you need to do.  If you need more specific instructions let me know23:45
tgm4883_laptopmxpower, the iso's need to show up in /var/lib/mythtv/videos/23:45
tgm4883_laptopthen we will have mythvideo scan that directory for videos23:46
tgm4883_laptopthen you will be able to just select which one to watch23:46
tgm4883_laptopmythvideo can handle iso's just fine23:46
mxpowerperfect,i didnt know that23:46
tgm4883_laptopalternatively you can tell mythvideo to look somewhere else for the iso's but i like this way better23:47
ahavecan someone remind me the location of the frontend log files?23:49
tgm4883ahave, all log files are kept in /var/log23:49
ahavetgm4883, thanks23:49
tgm4883mythtv log files are kept in a directory in there23:49
avon_ls /var/log/mythtv/mythfrontend.log*23:49
tgm4883so /var/log/mythtv23:49

tgm4883avon_, at least on my screen, your link gets broken up on 2 lines and is impossible to follow23:54

avon_or goto: http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/ivtv/users/  and search for "cx18 mythtv" and click the first search result23:55
