lwizardlHi01:32
lwizardlanyone here able to help me with getting my 3 video sources cards setup properly in ubuntu so that I can use them in mythtv01:34
lwizardlmy cards are a Hauppage PVR-150, Kworld ATSC 110, and a Digiwave 103g DVB-S01:34
nwidgeranyone know how to change the default sound card?02:32
npurcifulI have a quick question about the disk check and mythtv storage, i have 1TB for storage and the disk check takes hours to run is it even nessary on a mythtv only drive03:14
BLACKthroatcould someone help with listings?03:36
BLACKthroatits not properly naming the channels03:44
ddgoosenpurciful what disk check do you mean?04:31
ddgooseBLACKthroat: that has come up a few times past couple days, what exactly is happening with yours?04:31
npurcifulddgoose: fsck04:33
BLACKthroatwell, i signed up at schedulesdirect.org to get a login and password04:33
ddgoosenpurciful on boot or in mythtv?04:33
BLACKthroatand it doesn't appear to get the listings04:34
npurcifulddgoose: on boot04:34
ddgooseIs it doing it every time you boot?04:34
npurcifulddgoose: no i was just wondering if it is nessary being the nature of a mythtv drive it is 1TB and take a really long time04:35
npurcifulddgoose: there is no OS on this disk just recordings04:36
BLACKthroati shouldn't have to name each channel correct? that is the whole purpose of XMLTV i thought04:37
ddgoosewhat fs are you using on you 1tb drive?04:37
ddgooseBLACKthroat no you shouldnt have to04:37
ddgooseafaik04:37
npurcifulddgoose: ext304:38
ddgoosenpurciful use tune2fs to increase max-mount04:38
ddgoosethink its tune2fs -c <max number of mounts before fsck>04:39
npurcifulokay to like 45, 6004:39
ddgoosewell normally a ext3 filesystem never gets marked dirty so it shouldn't be fsck's unless there was a problem04:40
ddgooseyeah I think the default is like 3004:40
ddgooselemme check04:40
ddgooseI think its 30 something by default, man page doesn't say04:41
npurcifuli upped to 45 see how that works04:42
ddgooseif you had an error the kernel will force a check on the next boot so if it's happening frequently you may have an issue04:42
ddgoosewhat brand os your 1tb disk?04:44
ddgooseis even04:44
npurcifulwell if it happens again i will probably just reload, i had gusty, then hardy alpha1-release04:44
npurcifulWestern Digital GP04:44
ddgoosedid you run a do-release-upgrade on that hardy yet?04:44
ddgooseBLACKthroat I don't use the listing so I can't help you there, someone will wake up eventually that can.04:45
npurcifulyeah, i up todate04:46
ddgoosenpurciful if you have any more unexpected fsks on the disk I would run the smart and long test using western digital disk tools on windows and consider getting an RMA on it04:47
npurcifulah like the disk failing04:47
ddgooseright04:47
ddgoosebetter sooner than later04:47
npurcifuldefinatly04:48
ddgooseI had to rma 4 disks recently with same type issue04:48
ddgoose2 seagates and 2 wd's04:48
ddgooseI only give them 1 or 2 unexpected fscks before I scan them and rma04:49
npurcifulwhoa that is a lot of disk and heat04:49
ddgoosedifferent machines04:49
npurcifulThe GPs are cool to the touch04:49
ddgooseI have a rack of servers here in my garage04:49
npurcifulddgoose: ah i see04:50
ddgoosewhat speed are those GP?04:54
npurcifulddgoose: there supposed to be varible 5400-7200, but i also herd they where just 540005:08
pteaguemy compaq armada e500 is doing a decent job considering the hardware, but it gets a bit jerky at times05:37
levanderI'm still getting mythbuntu developer meeting notices even though I've asked several timesto be taken off that list.06:18
BLACKthroathow much easier is it to get mythbuntu to run compared to mythtv on ubuntu?06:21
BLACKthroatthere are a few things i need to work out with mythtv, but am wondering if my dvr will work faster/smoother with mythbuntu installed06:22
ddgooseI prefer starting with mythbuntu because it does some of the configuration right in ubiquity06:25
rhpot1991BLACKthroat: should be abouts the same06:54
foxbuntuBLACKthroat, because of our dev practices its nearly the exact same thing06:54
pteagueanybody have any ideas on getting the videos from http://www.mspportal.com/action/showservice.jsp?homePath=http://www.mspportal.com/nmt&serviceid=nmt&portalcat=0&start=1&end=1&serviceno=1&res=1280x720 to work?06:58
pteagueit's a *.mp4 file - shouldn't the mythbrowser be able to handle those?07:01
