SolarbabyI really hate Lirc00:16
Egghead2sorry important phone call00:38
tgm4883_laptopanyone have their remote set to restart (or start) their frontend in xfce?00:39
SolarbabyEgghead2: I think I got it00:40
Egghead2Solarbaby, yes its driving me crazy, but it was a short drive, lol00:40
Solarbabytgm4883_laptop: I'd like to do that..  I think that requires a irxevent but i dont know much about that just yet00:40
SolarbabyEgghead2: its controlling most buttons in both XBMC and Mythtv Frontend now..  I will soon test whether it is correctly controlling my satalite box real soon00:41
tgm4883_laptopSolarbaby, irexec will do it and I have it working in gnome00:41
tgm4883_laptopjust not xfce00:41
Solarbabytgm4883_laptop: my bad..  xfce would be a nicer choice yes?00:41
tgm4883_laptopwell yes thats the default in mythbuntu00:42
Solarbabymakes sense00:42
tgm4883_laptopit works on my desktop but something strange happens on my frontend only00:42
SolarbabyI want to configure a button on my reqmote to alt tab from mythtv frontend to XBMC frontend00:42
Solarbabyof course I can put that at the end of my to do list, but ultimately very nice thing indeed00:43
Egghead2tgm4883_laptop, if you get it going let me know, id love to be able to restart the fe from the remote control00:43
tgm4883_laptopwill do00:43
Solarbabyme too..00:43
Solarbabylooks like after im done with all this hell.. im going to have to write up a new howto00:43
Solarbabyit helps me remember what I did to make this god awful lirc work00:44
Egghead2right noiw every crash i have to fireup the lappy and vnc into that box :(00:44
Egghead2hehe i have a bunch of notes too, lol too many00:44
Egghead2gotta get some food, bbl00:45
SolarbabyEgghead2: lemme knwo if I can help you later get it working00:45
SolarbabyEgghead2: if theres anything I can do00:46
Egghead2ok will do, i think im gonna try and uninstall the lirc again on the backend one more time :)00:47
Solarbabychances are hardware.conf is screwed up00:47
Solarbabythats always a biggy00:47
Egghead2yea maybe, had a hella time getting blaster to work00:47
Solarbabyusb uirt here00:48
Egghead2ok cya later, off to get some food00:48
Solarbabyand yeah..  took a while00:48
Solarbabyl8r00:48
Solarbabyjust cause im used to saying it.. I wanna say it again.. I hate lirc00:48
tgm4883_laptopSolarbaby, Egghead2 seems that it may be working now00:59
rhpot1991_laptoptgm4883_laptop: irrecord seems to record every other button on this remote01:00
rhpot1991_laptopgonna go watch some tv before I destroy things, I'll be around later01:00
Solarbabytgm4883_laptop: very good news :)01:34
pteaguedo i need to set something so my myth client knows where the server is?  i keep getting "could not connect to the master backend server -- is it running? is the ip address set for it in the setup program correct?"01:46
Solarbabyif its a backend you might want to enable Mysql Service in the Mythbuntu Control Center01:48
pteaguei enabled the mysql service on my backend cause i can connect to it using the "test connection", but my frontend is apparently having problems figuring out what computer it's supposed to connect to01:50
Solarbabyah yah..  Im installing for the first time in 6 months myself.. when I get to that point i'll be sure to yell out at ya.. sounds like you might be a little further along then I01:50
pteaguei wonder if i'm supposed to hardcode the ip address rather than use the computer's name01:56
Solarbabyalways try everything..01:56
rhpot1991I'd use the IP if you could01:58
rhpot1991thats how I have always done01:58
tgm4883_laptopuse the ip02:02
pteagueok, is there someplace i need to change it other than /etc/mythtv/mysql.txt ?02:04
Solarbabyoh no..  it appears that the Plextor ConvertX might be difficult to setup02:04
SolarbabyI thought that would be the easiest part02:05
SolarbabyI was betting on plug and play..02:06
pteagueok, this is weird... no matter what i seem to change i keep getting this error - "Connecting to backend server: 127.0.0.1:6543"02:17
pteagueor message rather02:17
pteaguehttp://paste2.org/p/2872002:20
pteagueok, where or how do i set the master server settings?02:29
Solarbabyit seems im out of luck using the Plextor 402u in hardy :(02:36
Solarbabyif anyone knows different please let me know..  this is dissapointing02:37
pteagueplextor?02:41
pteagueah, that's why it sounds familiar02:42
sardiskanI'm having audio issues...the sound is VERY low.02:52
sardiskanalso, the volume controls do not affect the volume on LiveTV at all02:53
sardiskanor the DVD02:53
pteaguedoes NFS get automatically set up for sharing stuff?03:01
Solarbabyis anyone else using a Plextor ConvertX 402u?03:13
a1fayo?03:20
a1faanybody have streamzap?03:22
tgm4883_laptopit's03:42

* tgm4883_laptop dies from the heat03:42
ddgoosehowdy04:51
pteaguei finally got a new error in my frontend...  it's now giving me a difference in protocol error...  yay for different packages between gutsy & hardy?05:02
ddgoosewhat error?05:32
Solarbabyddgoose: thank god I finally got that lirc thing worked out05:54
ddgooseoh cool05:54
Solarbabyddgoose: now the next big hurdle is that my Plextor 402u isn't supported by the Kernel05:54
ddgoosewhat was the answer?05:54
Solarbabyso recording will not be possible until I figure out that whole mess or replace the recording device05:54
Solarbabyddgoose: probably just badly formated conf files05:55
Solarbabyddgoose: and lircrc needed to be setup right.. same with a configuration file in XBMC..  I got the whole show working now..  It broadcasts to the Dish Network tuner..  It listens for remote codes for Mythttv Frontend..  and it also listens to the same Remote for XBMC05:56
SolarbabyI'll have to configure the remote to load and unload each frontend05:57
Solarbabythat'd be sweet05:57
ddgoosethe m402u should work05:57
SolarbabyPossibly a simple Alt Tab might be enough.. Im not certain it might get messy with the remote05:57
Solarbabyim using 8.04 and theres no Kernel support, unless you know how to apply the patches?05:57
SolarbabyI spent a few hours on it and just gave up for now..  Im not good with that stuff05:58
SolarbabyIm simply amazed I was able to come out on top with Lirc05:58
Solarbabyhttp://home.comcast.net/~bender647/go7007/   I went here and saw there are patches.. but I followed the limited instructions and found myself no closer06:00
ddgoosepretty small patch06:03
ddgooseonly a few changes06:03
pteagueok, how do i get mythbuntu to detect a network card?06:04
ddgoosewhat card?06:05
pteaguenot sure, it's a laptop... i used to run debian on it... i mounted the drive in terminal & checked etc/modules on it & it doesn't list anything for the lan06:05
pteaguei know it worked cause i was using it as a backup file & test server06:06
ddgooseis it running now?06:06
pteaguebox is currently on, i've got mythbuntu live cd running & / from old box mounted as /media/sda606:06
ddgooseopen terminal, run "sudo lshw" paste output to paste.ubuntu.com06:07
ddgoosepost link in here06:07
pteagueheh, that's gonna be somewhat hard considering it's not connected to the network ;)  or do you want me to boot up the old debian?06:08
ddgooseyeah that works06:08
Solarbabyddgoose: did you take a look at that url?  is that something you understand more then I?06:11
Solarbabyddgoose: or should I ditch this and get another piece of hardware that is way better?06:13
Solarbabyddgoose: its intended use is for a laptop06:14
Solarbabywow theres 50 different url's of my in google via irc and forums06:17
Solarbabywait.. make that 50 pages of me in urls06:18
Solarbabygoogle is incredible06:18
pteagueddgoose> http://paste2.org/p/2878306:26
pteaguei see *-network at the bottom06:27
pteaguepcimodules shows e100 & eepro10006:33
ddgoosesorry had to step out for a minute06:35
pteaguenp, watching something i missed06:36
ddgoosek reboot to live cd and do "sudo lsmod| grep eepro100"06:38
ddgoosetell me if you get output06:38
ddgoosealso do the lshw thing again and see if its listed in there with and ethernet interface designated06:39
ddgooselike logical name: eth006:39
Solarbabysuperm1: I miss you06:48
pteagueddgoose> nothing on lsmod for eepro100, lshw came up with an eth006:50
ddgoosehmm might be loading e10006:50
ddgoosebut sounds like you have an interface06:50
ddgoosewhat does ifconfig show?06:51
pteaguedid lshw | less & searched for eth & yes, driver=e100 & it's showing an ip address06:51
ddgooseok so try ping google.com06:52
ddgooseis the ip proper for your network?06:52
pteagueifconfig seems to return expected & pinging google works06:52
ddgoosethis is on livecd right?06:53
pteagueyes06:53
ddgooseso its working :)06:53
pteagueseems to be, but last time it wasn't letting me modify anything in networkmanager... ah, now it is...06:54
pteaguei'm betting the reboot fixed it06:54
ddgooseglitch I guess06:54
ddgooseat least now you know what to do next time you run into that06:55
pteagueok... next question is tv-out...  ;)  it seems it wants to disable it & i'm not sure how to enable it... the opensource driver doesn't want to allow it & there isn't an intel or ati option07:34
pteaguemeh, i'll install & hope after reboot it'll want to install the ati binary07:35
pteagueok, i don't think this is good - "The ext3 file system creation in partition #2 of SCSI1 (0,0,0) (sda) failed."08:34
DiploCatis there somewhere that has a list of supported hardware for mythbuntu... I'm building a box, and want to make sure I get well supported tv card, vfd's, remote etc11:37
DiploCat?11:37
lagathere's a thread in the forums. i'm not sure if it has seen many updates for 8.0411:41
pteaguemy backend is sharing certain directories for mythtv via nfs... do i need to mount those on my client in order to be able to watch videos i've recorded?12:15
lagano12:16
pteaguewhat about for dvds ripped on the server & such?12:24
lagayou'll have to use NFS for those12:24
laga(or cifs, whatever floats your boat :))12:24
pteaguenot sure what the diff is, but guessing both are better than samba12:27
lagacifs is samba, i think. more or less. ;)12:29
lagai haven't used that stuff in ages so i'm not up to date12:30

drmouse81Hello all12:38
pteagueanybody have a suggestion on a lightweight theme?12:39
drmouse81I have a problem that is currently bugging me. I have a cheap USB remote which appears as a HID kbd. I need to, somehow, stop it from being used as a keyboard, so that I can use it just though LIRC. Anyone know how?12:40
lagapteague: regarding memory? iulius12:41
lagadrmouse81: i believe lirc can do that somehow. but i don't know how. inputlirc might be a good alternative.12:42
lagainstall it and then read the man page, it can probably do everything you need12:42
drmouse81I have configured lirc, used irrecord to map the buttons then specified it in the mythbuntu controll panel using the dev/input driver and my irrecord-generated config file. but it is still being seen as a keyboard, so the key presses are coming through rather than the events defined in .mythtv/lircrc12:44
drmouse81oh, actualy, might a reboot help? just thought of that. I am used to linux not needing reboots (use it on servers all the time)12:46
lagamaybe X needs to be restarted.12:46
drmouse81laga: right, brb, i'll try that12:46
famicomugh12:48
famicomso boring12:48
famicomi wish i had some weed12:48
famicomsomoenhere know of any good ways to export the sorted mythtv channels12:49
lagayou live in .nl12:49
lagago buy some12:49
lagabesides, keep this channel family-freindly. only talk about booze ;)12:49
pteaguehehe12:50
famicomalcohol kills more people12:51
lagathere's a song about a guy who was killed when a shipment of weed was dropped on him. tragic.12:53

famicomyeah12:53
famicomstill12:53
famicomwriting documentation is SO DAMN TEDIOUS12:53
lagayes.12:53
drmouse81grr. nope mythtv still picks up SHIFT-CTRL-<box> for play12:54
famicomdrmouse81 them just edit ~/.mythtv/lircrc to use shift-ctrl for play12:54
lagadrmouse81: i wonder if you need to specify the correct device for lirc12:55
drmouse81famicom: too true. documentation is the worst part of my job, specialy as it has to be written for retards12:55
famicomdrmouse81 i know12:55
famicomI hate doing it12:55
famicomi'm thinking of getting some good hash, blaze a bit12:55
famicomthen just get it over with12:56
drmouse81laga: that could be the reason. D'OH! just looked in mythbuntu controll panel and it has no device specified!!12:56
famicomwell that's just silly12:57
drmouse81OK maybe I'm not a retard. just entered all the settings and after it finished applying them EVERYTHING has disappeard from the mythbuntu ctrl panel ir cfg12:59
pteaguedang, i'm not seeing static or animated map in the weather plugin for my area... what kind of lousy plugin doesn't have a map of my area? ;)12:59
famicomwow13:00
famicomeven my suburb has a map13:00
famicomyou really must live in single cowville usa13:00
drmouse81lol13:02
pteaguenope, i live in the biggest city in... the 2 states that it's in13:02
drmouse81binary city?13:03
pteaguekansas city... it's a big cow town... they'd drive cattle here from texas to get to the train yards13:03
drmouse81actualy, quantum city. two states at once13:04
pteaguehehe13:04
pteagueit sprawls across kansas & missouri borders13:04
pteaguehmm... maybe i should check oklahoma & see if there's a map for there... the region map tends to show oklahoma, kansas, missouri, & nebraska13:06
pteagueanybody know what the 'menu' key is on a keyboard?13:06
drmouse81pteague: windows kbd right of right-win-key?13:07
pteaguehehe13:07
pteaguedoesn't seem to work in mythbuntu client13:07
drmouse81Ah, wait a minute. What module should I be using in lirc?13:11
drmouse81YAY irw now at least picks up the keypresses. Its just its picking them all up as the same. D'OH13:13
drmouse81No wonder. My irrecord'ed file has all keypresses as 0x00!13:15
pteagueyou think i could run the frontend on just x ?13:17
lagapteague: a window manager is usually better to avoid focus problems13:17
pteaguek, i'll mess with icewm... i think that's lighter than xfce13:18
pteaguehehe... there's a bit of lag between live & what's on backend/frontend13:21
pteaguei'm watching tv on my normal tv & just got the client running on my laptop13:22
pteaguethis is so cool... this is better than seeing moving pictures on a computer screen! oh wait... =)13:33

laga"hesher". interesting word. :)14:33
drmouse81laga: do what my bro does. his gf doesnt take him shopping anymore. he calls into every pub he passes and downs a pint. sometimes sneaks out of the shop and has a drink. so he ends up wasted. she doesnt like that, so doesnt take him.14:34

Lake0As far I get it, the only component you can have too much of is the GPU, right ?18:29
tritiumhuh?18:29
Lake0I mean, it's better to invest in a better CPU than a good GPU, right ?18:30
Lake0since people seem fine with nvidia 6000's18:30
tritiumThat's probably fair to say.  My nVidia 6150 does what I need it to do for mythv, and I don't use the machine for gaming, or other things that might require a better GPU.18:32

cosmic!!!19:15
cosmicddgoose:19:15
ddgoosehmm19:18
ddgooseworks fine for me19:18
ddgoosetry again maybe19:20
MythbuntuGuest14so you just clicked on the link, ubuntu was upgraded to mythbuntu and you were able to launch the setup?19:30
Lake0I am trying to build a server backend and I am trying to understand what CPU (the most important component apparently) is fir for the job19:30
Lake0is fit for the job*19:30
Lake0because the mythbuntu page has examples, but it only says vague things like "3GHz cpu"19:31
cosmicthnx for all ddgoose19:50
cosmicCU @ ALL19:50

trillexAnyone very smart who feels like helping a lost soul in the journey that is mythbuntu?20:02
agamottoI will attempt to help with what I know... the others seem to have no ability to speak... at least not in the last couple of days20:04
agamottoSo ask away...20:06
trillexI got this Pundit BB that I'm trying to convert into a mediacenter. Now, the problem is that I don't have a flatscreen telly, but a more old fashioned one, hooked up with s-video. That's all good and that, but I can't make it use 50 hz and defaults to 60, so it flickers constantly. I can also only choose 60 hz.20:08
trillexAnd I don't seem to be able to find a way to configure my telly while it's hooked up to a monitor I got laying about20:08
agamottotrillex:  PAL?20:08
trillexYep20:08
trillexIt's set to PAL-Danish20:08
agamottoWhat is set to PAL-D20:09
trillexSomewhere I could change it from NTSC20:09
trillexTV format in general settings20:10
agamottoAhhh, ok, you made it that far20:10
trillexEverything is installed and it seems to be working alright on my monitor, but the TV is just flickering away20:10
agamottoIf your tv-out is PAL-D, then you shouldn't be having any problems with flicker20:10
agamottoAhhh, I see.  What kind of telly?20:10
trillexAn old hitachi 28" widescreen.20:11
agamottoHmmm, Pal-D format, or something else?20:11
trillexShould be. I can also try to just set it to PAL20:12
trillex50 hz20:12
agamottoThat might do do the trick.  When I lived in the UK, I remember having one telly that I had to set to Pal-K for some reason20:13
agamottoAlso, does your telly have a VGA input?20:13
trillexNah, too old for that. 2 scart plugs, RGB on the side and a Antenna plug20:13
agamottoRGB.... three separate color round bits?20:14
trillexI'm using an s-video cable with a color fix on the end for color. It works properly on my main computer (this one) but if I plug it in with colorfix on, it flickers. Without it doesn't.20:14
trillexYeah20:14
bogus-anyone knows, when I browse HD content with mythstream on my TV (reso set to 800x600) if I want to go fullscreen, my screen stays black20:15
agamottoI wonder if the color fix is also trying to mess with the scan rate20:15
trillexSo I'm thinking it COULD be something with the gfx20:15
trillexcard20:15
agamottoThat does sound like a good possibility.... what card?20:15
trillexOnboard SiS 65120:15
trillexImpossible to find drivers on20:16
agamottoHmmmm, don't know much about that20:16
agamottoHave you had much luck putting your programs onto DVDs?20:16
trillexI was thinking of just grabbing a cheap PCI20:16
agamottoThat would be worth it... most are under US$60 these days....20:17
agamottoAny Nvidia Geforce 6 series should do nicely20:17
trillexHaven't tried yet. All I want right now is it to work so I can watch telly on it. :) That's the next step20:17
agamottoAhhh.  My problem is not being able to burn discs since I upgraded to 8.04.  It has something to do with growisofs and result 133, whatever that is20:18
agamottoI keep searching on the net, and can't find anything that makes sense20:18
trillexI wouldn't know. I'm pretty dumb when it comes to linux.20:19
agamottoNah, ignorant.  Dumb is for people who don't try20:19
agamottoignorance can be cured with knowledge20:19
trillexIgnorance means that they are ignoring knowledge about it, though.20:22
trillexI actively try to get better but it's hard when I head right on into some of the hardest stuff. :P20:23
agamottoYah, but that quite often, is the quickest way to learn20:26

HunterSThompsonanyone know how to make playback always be in progressive scan mode in Hardy?21:31
HunterSThompsonO______o21:34
HunterSThompsonanyone care to venture a guess?21:42
tgm4883_laptopHunterSThompson, have you checked in the tv playback settings in the frontend21:42
lagapatch the source?21:42
HunterSThompsonI've checked tv playback settings...I don't find anything having to do with deintelacing/progressive scan21:43
lagayou can probably disable the deinterlacers.21:43
HunterSThompsonI've no idea how to patch a source21:44
alexvdall I managed to upgrade my version of lirc that didnt support the irman.  I am running 7.10 still because I have not upgraded.  Do I need to uninstall the old version?  I installed with the deb.21:44
lagadisable the deinterlaceing filters in the playback profile21:45
alexvdAnother question I have is I have a tivo series2 remote I want to use.  I think I now need to get a lircd file for the remote that supports the irman protocol right?  Then I will need to get a lirc.c file for mythbuntu right?21:47
alexvdIs thier a utility that will do this?21:47
