[00:17] <dinger1987> hello i was wondering if anyone would mind helping me with a wee problem i am having?
[01:32] <frank_> i'm running kubuntu 8.04 and I can't get lirc to work with mythtv. lirc module doesn't load
[01:32] <frank_> FATAL: Error inserting lirc_i2c (/lib/modules/2.6.24-16-generic/updates/dkms/lirc_i2c.ko): Invalid module format
[01:33] <frank_> lirc_i2c: disagrees about version of symbol struct_module
[01:34] <frank_> this is for a hauppauge pvr-150 with happauge gray remote
[01:34] <frank_> any ideas?
[01:37] <frank_> hmmm.... looks like a known bug.
[01:37] <frank_> I upgraded from gutsy (well actually it was a test-upgrade on a spare partition)
[01:44] <frank_> fixed it    https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lirc/+bug/218955
[01:52] <squish102> has any1 taken an ubuntu 7.10 + mythtv to an unbuntu 8.04 without problems?
[02:05] <frank_> bah... dvd menu in mythtv are sometimes displayed twice vertically on top of one another
[02:06] <frank_> and my worst problem right now is that the red bar that shows the current selection (GANT theme) is mostly absent
[02:07] <frank_> looks like the upgrade will have to wait
[02:56] <joecurlee> hi all: using mythbuntu 8.04... i'm getting some weird video issues after installing latest updates and restarting my computer...
[02:57] <joecurlee> i have what looks like video corruption: white lines through fonts + borders etc.
[02:57] <joecurlee> i'm using an nvida geforce card
[02:58] <joecurlee> any suggestions on this?
[03:03] <joecurlee> doesn't seem to matter what resolution i choose or refresh rate either
[04:51] <hieppo> anyone has experience with ati HDTV wonder with ATI video card?
[07:49] <rockhound> hi everyone ... this is maybe a little off topic, but I need a hint on where to find out why my soundcard is not really loud at all .... even turned up all the way in the mixer ... spdif coax out is the same
[10:16] <cann> hmm there is no way to do an dist-upgrade from 7.10 to 8.04 in console ?
[12:10] <cmug> I think you need to edit /etc/apt/sources.list and then do apt-get update&dist-upgrade
[12:19] <bogus-> indeed
[13:36] <slestak> pretty demolished over my mythadventures.  sunk another $250 into my myth to upgrade storage and video card, and I still cannot placyback HD content without stutters and pauses and high cpu.
[13:36] <slestak> changes from an ati card to an nvidia to gain Xvmc.  I think my problem may be as simple as ota reception.
[13:36] <cmug> I run 720p material on my AMD 1800+ XP processor with an nvidia
[13:37] <slestak> i have a prescott p4 ht 3Ghz.  2g of ram.  using nvidia driver from hardy repo.
[13:38] <slestak> i have my lcdtv at 1280x768 (setup with nvidia-settings)
[13:39] <slestak> a couple of stations are cool.  two (of course the ones I want most) will not tune in.  Of course the internal tuner for the lcd tv tunes them fine.
[13:39] <slestak> i think I need an external aerial, but hate to put more money in.
[13:40] <cmug> I scale everything 1080p
[13:40] <cmug> I don't have any live sources for HD
[13:40] <cmug> so unable to comment about live playback
[13:41] <slestak> playback with mythvideo is a little different since you can use mplayer or vlc, but live playback always uses internal player doesn't it?  Ive have experimented with playback profiles, but no joy
[13:42] <cmug> I use mplayer
[13:43] <slestak> well, thx for the info
[15:45] <wilberfan> anyone know why my volume resets itself for each recording?
[15:45] <sabhain> * is fighting the same battle .. seems to lose control of volume going from recording to Live tv .. HD to SD
[15:46] <wilberfan> I have to get up, go into the next room (where the tower is) and manually slide the volume back to 85 or 90%...
[15:48] <wilberfan> (it resets to 68% each time?)
[16:11] <sabhain> that's ugly .. my problem just seems to be that mythtv can't actually control the volume.  You can use the controls to change it / mute it .. but it always stays on.  I think I'm not controlling master or something.
[16:12] <sabhain> had a HUGE night last night with the WAF .. watched an HD recording of the Office on a remote front end .. first upstairs mythtv experience.
[16:13] <wilberfan> congrats...!
[16:17] <cann> after a upgrading from 71.0 to 8.04 i get the following error message " symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libmythavcodec-0.21.so.0: undefined symbol: faacDecOpen" when starting mythfrontend, anyone able to point me in the right direction to solve it ? =)
[16:17] <laga> cann: yes. search the forums
[16:19] <cann> laga: alright thanks
[16:22] <cann> laga: lol i cant belive i missed that, iam gona try your solution now , thanks again
[16:22] <laga> ;)
[17:55] <hugolp> laga:  DaveMorris solution worked and the nova-t-500 is working now
[19:33] <frego_> I just did a fresh install of Mythbuntu 8.04.  I'm trying to get my own lirc file instead of the standard for my MCE 2 (Philips type) remote.  I thought it would be the file ~/.lirc/mythtv.  But any changes I make don't seem to take effect (I've tried restarting lirc and restarting the entire PC).  So I got to digging a little more and found /etc/lirc/hardware.conf had a line: REMOTE_LIRCD_CONF="mceusb/lircd.conf.mceusb".  So I changed t
[19:33] <frego_> hat and now when I restart lirc I get a segmentation fault.  Anyone know how to change the lirc config on Mythbuntu??
[20:10] <TelnetManta> Does anyone know of a way to make the sound louder in mythbuntu? I have the master volume up as high as it will go and I have to turn my amp up to MAX to hear it well.
[20:10] <TelnetManta> Am I missing something?
[20:18] <Cybertoy> hi .. is there a way to figure out what options where passed to the "configure" command before compiling the MythTV code that comes with mythbuntu?
[20:32] <slestak> Cybertoy: i think mythfrontend --version will show compiled options
[20:33] <slestak> i saw that on a wiki pertaining to Xvmc, it had me check to see if FE was built to use xvmc
[20:46] <Cybertoy> slestak, hmm.. close.. it'll show the options compiled in .. I guess I can derive it from there.
[20:46] <Cybertoy> tnx for that.

[21:28] <Cybertoy> hmm.. I changed ~/.lirc/mythtv ... worked for me... also make sure to change ~/.lirc/mplayer if you change codes related to playback of movies in mplayer.
[21:28] <ernstp> hi, I've got a stir4210 ir-reciever that I want to make work with mythbuntu, but I'm unsure about some things
[21:29] <ernstp> when you say activate remote control, it looks like you're selecting a ir reciver rather than a remote control. is that correct?
[21:29] <laga> hugolp: awesome.
[21:31] <frego_> thanks for the reply, Cybertoy
[21:31] <frego_> I'll dork with it some more
[21:34] <slestak> could 802.11g interfere with uhf or vhf?  ive had a drastic reduction in reception that i cannot figure out.  did get a new wireless bridge.  blamed it on the snow on the roof in Feb, but no snow now, so no excuse
[21:38] <ernstp> so my dongle is supported by irda-usb
[21:38] <ernstp> what do I select in the mythbuntu control-center then?
[21:39] <frego_> got another mythbuntu type of question... I am wanting to also use my mythbuntu machine as a VMware server, think I should try installing gnome before I try the vmware install?
[22:49] <pretender> my myth archive exported reordings to DVD's are not playing for some reason.  What is another method of getting my recordings to DVD
[23:59] <bogus-> how do I know if I have a philips type mce remote or not?
