avon_actually after I start using mythtv on my hvr-1600, it somehow screws up sound so that I can't use it when running mplayer.  But if I restart and run mplayer on /dev/video0, I get audio playing right again...00:04
BobSlobhmm00:20
BobSlobi just reinstalled 7.10... but for some reason my live tv is black and white, but onscreen display and menus are color00:20
MythbuntuGuest94hello all00:33
MythbuntuGuest94quick question for you00:33
BobSlobI have VNC setup on my mythtv box... is it possible to set it to a different user, so i dont interfere with what mythtv is doing?01:09
BobSlobbasically remote desktop for linux =P01:13
MythbuntuGuest24i have a backend that is only accessable through ssh, (no keyboard or monitor) for some reason its ip address changed, is there an easy way to change it back to the one it was?04:17
MythbuntuGuest24im hoping this will also fix mythweb, which stoped working as well04:17
fuflduflhi. weird problem with a mythbuntu setup that has been working fine for a few months. problem cropped up upon addition of a ralink wifi card (rt61pci module)04:31
fuflduflwith the wifi card in, live TV doesn't work04:31
fufldufltake out the wifi card and live TV starts working again04:31
fuflduflanyone have any idea what might be going on here or, better yet, any idea how to fix it?04:32
fufldufli.e., make it so that I can watch live TV with the wifi card present in the machine?04:32
fufldufli can watch recordings just fine with the wifi card in04:33
fuflduflbut live TV don't work no way no how04:33
darthanubissuperm1, I'm going to file thi sas a bug against mythexport06:53
superm1file what?06:54
superm1i just uploaded rhpot1991's changes for mythexport06:54
darthanubisyeah it would not execute from job line06:54
superm1did you talk to rhpot1991 about it already?06:54
darthanubisyeah06:54
darthanubiswe fixed why mythtv user could not write to the export dir06:55
darthanubisbut the job line would not run even after that06:55
darthanubislet me get the output for you06:55
darthanubishave to ssh to the other box, one sec06:55
Tuv0khttp://pastebin.com/d7ad500e806:59
Tuv0ksuperm1, ^^06:59
rhpot1991darthanubis: did you ever test it via a bash script like I said07:01
rhpot1991I still maintain that you have user permission problems07:01
superm1Tuv0k, i'm not sure about that.  rhpot1991 is the ony to talk to07:01
Tuv0kI never learned to script07:01
superm1i dont know much about his mythexport magic07:01
Tuv0kI've have the book open to the scripting chapter07:02
Tuv0k!/bin/sh07:02
ubotuSorry, I don't know anything about bin/sh - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi07:02
rhpot1991also did I have you run mythexport by hand, if so what were the results?07:02
Tuv0kthen I'm lost07:02
Tuv0kthey are in that pastebin above07:02
rhpot1991well did you ever get one to work without the IO error07:03
rhpot1991I recall you getting something to work at some point, that was days ago though07:03
Tuv0kyeah when we used the debug after the job line07:03
rhpot1991do you remember what recording that was?07:03
Tuv0kone I deleted. But it the same no matter the recording07:04
darthanubishttp://pastebin.com/d1c3f1aea07:04
darthanubishttp://pastebin.com/d7de6947c07:05
rhpot1991both those links are dead07:05
darthanubisk07:06
darthanubishttp://pastebin.com/m1b318abb07:06
darthanubishttp://pastebin.com/m4541476207:08
darthanubisthat last link worked before without the "USING"07:08
rhpot1991do another debug and find one that works running the ffmpeg line, then run mythexport (by hand) on it and see what happens07:08
rhpot1991got too many variables that could be wrong at this point, need to trim them down07:09
rhpot1991then go and mark that recording so it doesn't expire so we can use it for more testing later07:09
Tuv0kwe've been through this before, I'll do it again07:10
rhpot1991I'd like to be sure07:11
Tuv0kthat's fine, I appreciate the diligence because I need this07:14
Tuv0kI have a previous show transcoding atm I have to wait :/07:14
rhpot1991just let me know07:15
rhpot1991you can send me an email off about it if I am not in here, you will find my email in the wiki07:15
Tuv0kk07:15
Tuv0krhpot1991, debug failed again07:38
Tuv0kyhis one fails from cli as well07:40
Tuv0krhpot1991, /home/anubis/store/mythtv/video/1059_20080422030000.mpg: I/O error occured07:41
Tuv0kUsually that means that input file is truncated and/or corrupted.07:41
Tuv0kfound one that works07:47
Tuv0kdoes your mythexport work on .nuvs?07:47
Tuv0kalso is mythexport supposed to replace mythtranscode?07:51
Tuv0kand where does nuvexport come in to play07:51
Tuv0kand why is it I can't get a comment on nuvexport one way or the other?07:52
rhpot1991I don't know that it doesn't work on nuv's07:53
rhpot1991what kind of comments?07:53
rhpot1991mythexport exports your recordings for a portable device, nuvexport can do this as well, though I believe it lacks the mpeg meta date features07:53
rhpot1991mythtranscode is completely different07:53
cannmorning ppl =) .. iam fiddling with mythweb and i cant get the music part to work. i have no authentication (i use openvpn to access it) still the the media player just skip through the songs on the playlist. i have tried windows media player, vlc, mplayer , realplayer and totem in linux all with the same results. anyone have any tips about what can be wrong ?08:46
Merlin83bI've been using MythTV for ages, but the time has come to build a new box.  I'm thinking of using mythbuntu, and want to do so tonight, but am aware that 8.04 final will be out very soon.  Will it be easy to upgrade from RC to final?14:42
pdragonRC to final with the last version was very smooth for me14:48
pdragonbut, if you haven't started yet, I'd wait. 8.04 is released tomorrow14:49
pdragonor, if you just want to see what it's like, won't hurt installing tonight and playing around. The do a clean install once final is out :)14:50
Merlin83bPatience you say?  Nah, sounds boring :)14:54
Merlin83bIf upgrading last time round was good, I reckon I'll install and then try to upgrade tomorrow or whenever final comes out :)14:54
frink__mythtv 8.04 tomorrow?15:09
Merlin83bUbuntu 8.04 tomorrow.15:14
Merlin83bAnd from mythbuntu.org:15:14
Merlin83bThe final release will be released on or shortly after the Ubuntu 8.04 release.15:15
selkiesIs there a generally recommended HD/PVR-capable tuner card for setting up a set top box?15:21
selkiesI'm poking around in the supported hardware and everything's saying there's some issue with the card somewhere. Not sure if that's just user error or what.15:23
rhpot1991_laptopnot currently, the hauppauge hd pvr should fix that in the future15:24
rhpot1991_laptopmight be able to try firewire for your STB15:24
selkiesHm, is the wintv hvr950 any good?15:29
selkiesI guess I'm not familiar with HD encoding so I have no clue what `not tuning QAM' implies.15:30
darthanubisrhpot1991_laptop, found a video it worked on, you get my messages above?15:30
rhpot1991_laptopdarthanubis: nope, want to repeat it?15:30
rhpot1991_laptopnot on the same computer as lasternight15:30
darthanubissure15:31
darthanubisone sec15:31
rhpot1991_laptopalso are you sure you have nuv videos, I was under the assumption that they ended in .nuv and yours seem to be ending in .mpg15:31
Tuv0kwell the ones that end in .nuv are not working15:33
Tuv0kthe mpg I tried worked15:33
Tuv0kso did the last mpg15:33
Tuv0kbut all .nuvs fail15:33
Tuv0knothing runs from the job line15:34
rhpot1991_laptopTuv0k: ah, I think I might know something about that15:34
rhpot1991_laptopshow me dpkg -l mythexport |grep ^ii15:34
rhpot1991_laptopget the version from there15:34
Tuv0k mythexport   1.0-0ubuntu115:35
rhpot1991_laptopyou are hardy right?15:35

Tuv0kthey last 1 sec15:37
Tuv0kclaim to be completed15:37
rhpot1991_laptopwell they will always complete, failure or not15:37
rhpot1991_laptopI think you have 2 issues15:37
Tuv0k??15:42
Tuv0kyeah I do15:43
Tuv0k1.nuvexport does not pull file names from the database15:43
Tuv0k2.mythexport does not work on .nuvs and never from job level15:44
Tuv0k/home/anubis/store/mythtv/video/1059_20080422030000.mpg: I/O error occured Usually that means that input file is truncated and/or corrupted.15:45
Tuv0k3.My database maybe toasted15:45
Tuv0krhpot1991_laptop, seems like you stopped before you laid out the two issues?15:59
rhpot1991_laptopTuv0k: send me an email I'll respond on there16:09
Tuv0kI'm filing a bug report, you can reply there16:10
