[01:10] hurray the glade ide is totally retarded! [04:05] When I click on Watch TV, my screen goes black for a few seconds and then goes back to the menu. [04:06] If I use TVTime, I can view the TV. Can someone help? [04:08] dustin_tt_, check the backend log for errors [04:08] /var/log/mythtv/mythbackend.log [04:11] I upgraded to Mythbuntu 8.04 and now my ir blaster doesn [04:11] t [04:11] work anymore. [04:12] I used to just select ADS ir blaster from the list of supported devices, but it's gone from the setup list now. [04:13] The device is detected in linux as FTDI usb serial device. [04:13] Which ir blaster device profile do I need to choose from the setup list? [04:15] tgm4833_laptop. Do you want me to post my log file? [04:16] dustin_tt_, use pastebin [04:18] Sorry. http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/14432/ [04:24] Heh, you have / set as your recording directory, and only root would have write access to that [04:24] You need to set a proper directory that your backend user has permissions to [04:28] Going to check that now. Thanks. Will let you know how it went. [04:37] Same result, unless I did something wrong. See http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/14433/ [04:39] You did something wrong, since it's still trying to record to / [04:40] How can I change that? [04:40] By seting up all your storage groups properly in mythtv-setup [04:45] When I make changes and I am exiting, I see an error that says "Cannot create a file //.test - directory not writable". How do I remove that? [04:51] dustin_tt_, what directory is your recordings dir? [04:54] When I browse the LiveTV folder, I see / and then DirecTV [04:55] dustin_tt_, what directory did you use in your storage groups? [04:58] In the LiveTV group, there are two directories - / and DirecTV [04:58] and I cannot remove the first entry - / [04:59] hit either the delete key or the d key when on it [04:59] i assume you made a DirecTV directory somewhere? [05:01] dustin_tt_, did you follow a guide? [05:02] I just deleted the / and yes I did create a DirecTV directory. Same result. I followed a guide, but probably entered the / in error. [05:03] ok, most likely, it's a permission problem [05:03] you need to chmod it 775 [05:03] and chown it mythtv:mythtv [05:13] also make sure you put the whole path in mythtv-setup, not just "DirecTV," but /wherever/you/put/DirecTV [05:13] or /DirecTV if you put it off the root filesystem, and case sensitive. [05:14] ok [05:26] Getting closer. I created a new folder - http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/14441/ [05:27] Did you run chmod and chown as tgm4883_laptop mentioned? [05:28] 'cause you're not going to get far without permissions set right [05:28] I did, but getting an error on chown [05:28] sudo chmod 775 /home/dustin/DirecTV/ [05:28] sudo chown mythtv.mythtv /home/dustin/DirecTV/ [05:28] then try again [05:30] that was it. I was not doing a sudo on chown [05:30] working now guys [05:30] Thanks alot for everything [05:31] bye [06:39] hello [10:20] when I play video with mythbuntu its not wide-screen. how can I change this?

[19:31] Seeker`, you have that problem? [19:33] tgm4883_laptop: I gave up on tvout [19:40] tgm4883_laptop: Do you know what the minimum sensible bitrate for SD TV is [19:43] Seeker`, not sure the minimum. I use 9000 [19:43] Seeker`, where do you live? [19:44] UK [19:44] Just as I thought [19:44] (this is analogue TV btw) [19:44] why did you think that? [19:44] the Black/white issue is usually a NTSC/PAL issue [19:45] most likely, you are outputing a NTSC signal to a PAL TV [19:46] I thought it was a PAL/NTSC issue, since you are in PAL land, makes it more likely [19:46] keinNAME 9the one with the problem) is from de, which uses PAL too afaik [19:47] yea I saw that. Unfortunatly he is gone now [19:48] hmm, spdif output does 5.1, doesn't it? [19:49] i believe so [20:42] How do I navigate to the second page of the setup screen? [21:13] huh. I finally got mythbuntu to work together with my telly but after a reboot it just disappeared. [21:16] and it keeps complaining about xorg crashing. [21:36] Either my gfxcard is defective or the drivers are a bit dodgy. It started up the first time with everything working 100% [21:58] Anyone have any luck with the Pinnacle 150e/55e? [23:30] hey [23:31] hey [23:31] awesokme [23:31] were the monkey's [23:40] i'm setting up mythtv on my laptop, and i need some help. [23:40] so far i've scanned both 82 and 91 [23:40] have the channels, and now i dont know what next. . i also never applied any north america patches [23:41] i've checked out howtos and what not, but i'm lost [23:41] where do you get your channel data from? [23:41] epg? [23:42] do you mean the channel guide? [23:42] yes [23:42] i was hoping it would grab it the same way as mytheatre does, from transponder (forget which one) [23:43] whatever transponder channel 352 bev is on [23:43] you will need to mark the channel data as received from epg (in step 3), then bond it to a tuner (in step 4) [23:43] have you read the installation guide? [23:44] i read a howto on happysat [23:45] Phoenix Lander mission is live on NasaTV [23:45] Rukusx7, link?
