[03:12] <toorima> vertical scaling in tv settings - playback
[03:50] <sintral> anyone got time to field an FAQ?
[03:51] <superm1> well it's a FAQ, then it should be in a FAQ ;)
[03:52] <sintral> tv playback fails, returns immediately to frontend main screen
[03:52] <sintral> log says "LiveTV not successfully started"
[03:52] <hads> Does it say anything else?
[03:53] <sintral> both cards (PVR 350 and pcHDTV5000) are both recognized
[03:53] <superm1> that usually means you selected the wrong type of card during setup for one of them

[03:54] <superm1> !pastebin
[03:55] <superm1> oh wait our bot died
[03:55] <superm1> what'd he used to say on that....
[03:55] <hads> Bummer
[03:55] <sintral> i chose V4L and Tuner1 for the HDTV card, and MPEG2 PVR x50 for the Hauppage card
[03:55] <superm1> Oct 20 23:03:35 <ubotu>	andruk: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[03:55] <superm1> something like that
[03:56] <superm1> try to remove the HD card from the mix and make sure that it's working with just hte PVR card
[03:56] <sintral> noted, thanks
[03:56] <sintral> physically remove?
[03:57] <sintral> nevermind, i see what you mean
[03:58] <superm1> from mythtv-setup
[03:58] <superm1> probably best off wipe both cards from there
[03:58] <superm1> there is an optino to remove all cards
[03:58] <superm1> and then just add the pvr-350
[03:58] <sintral> ok, did that and added back the pvr
[03:58] <superm1> and make sure it works
[03:58] <superm1> then go back and add the hd5000
[03:59] <sintral> same message in the log with just the pvr card
[04:00] <superm1> okay so repeat and do it with just the hd5000
[04:00] <superm1> see if you have more lukc
[04:00] <superm1> that's odd that the error would be identical though
[04:00] <superm1> that looks like a DTV typeish error
[04:00] <superm1> or a messed up database possibly
[04:01] <sintral> 2008-06-04 22:59:18.289 Couldn't upgrade database to new schema, exiting.
[04:01] <sintral> i also get this message
[04:01] <superm1> yeah that sounds more like it
[04:01] <superm1> so that means that you go through and do a repair on the database
[04:02] <superm1> or if this is a new database that you dont mind wiping,
[04:02] <superm1> drop it
[04:02] <superm1> and start it again
[04:02] <sintral> is there a default mysql user/passwd that would have been setup for me during the myth install?
[04:03] <superm1> yes
[04:03] <superm1> its all in /etc/mythtv/mysql.txt
[04:04] <r0dzilla> thanks toorime, I had to go afk, I'm going to try that now...
[04:06] <sintral> which table needs to be repaired? settings?
[04:08] <sintral> or what is the syntax for attempting to repair the entire db
[04:15] <sintral> superm, are you still available?
[04:20] <superm1> sintral, i always use gui tools and repair the whole db
[04:20] <superm1> beats me how to do it from cmnd line
[04:22] <sintral> ok, i got it from command line
[04:22] <toorima> sintral: u can install phpmyadmin to repair the db or use these commands, of course change to what ever u need to fix
[04:23] <toorima> mysql -u mythtv -p
[04:23] <toorima> use mythconverg ;
[04:23] <toorima> ops
[04:23] <toorima> REPAIR TABLE recordedseek;
[04:23] <toorima> exit
[04:23] <sintral> duplicate index on the music_songs table
[04:23] <sintral> so that's resolved and mythfrontend no longer reports the schema upgrade error
[04:23] <sintral> but I do get this "GetEntryAt(-1) failed."
[04:24] <sintral> and this "2008-06-04 23:21:59.734 EntryToProgram(0@Wed Dec 31 19:00:00 1969) failed to get pginfo" when attempting to change from None to WatchingLiveTV
[04:30] <marty> hey anyone have a quick answer to why i can play dvds but not rip them in mythubuntu 8.04...libdvdcss2 is installed to...its starts to rip it and around the time it has the same time remaining as it has been running it gets a message "no jobs" or something along those lines
[04:33] <sintral> diddo marty
[04:33] <marty> got the same problem?
[04:33] <sintral> may be a permissions issue on the output directory
[04:33] <sintral> yes
[04:35] <sintral> for me I myth runs as user myth rather than mythtv, but the dvd rip output folder was somewhere else (/var/? if I remember correctly)
[04:35] <sintral> where myth did not have write access. I changed the output dir in setup but never got a usable xvid file
[04:36] <marty> its probobly a temp folder until the final one is made
[04:36] <marty> just a guess though
[04:37] <marty> i saw something about dvds containing bad blocks and installing wine to rip dvd's
[04:38] <rhpot1991> check the temp directory for mythdvd
[04:39] <rhpot1991> if you dvd has bad blocks try using ddrescue
[04:39] <rhpot1991> sudo apt-get insatll gddrescue
[04:39] <rhpot1991> but spell install right :)
[04:41] <marty> will i have to run a special command to rip the dvd
[04:41] <marty> or can it still be done just as easy in the myth front end
[04:41] <rhpot1991> ddrescue /dev/dvd NAME_OF.ISO NAME_OF.ISO.LOG
[04:41] <rhpot1991> then you can ^c and do the same command and it can resume from the log
[04:42] <rhpot1991> for some dvd's with bad copy protection it will choke on that stuff at the end, and you can just ^c and try your iso out, as you don't need those busted bits anyways
[04:44] <marty> im trying to market media servers so i need to eventually have it configured so a customer can easily do it...not selling mythubuntu either...and hopefully if things go well donate :)
[04:45] <marty> also can ddrescue do a perfect rip?
[04:45] <rhpot1991> marty:  unfortunately its hard to be able to rip all dvd's and ddrescue does it best for trouble ones
[04:45] <rhpot1991> well perfect asides from those unreadable broken bits that aren't to standards anyways
[04:46] <marty> how many dvds have bad bits?
[04:46] <iamlindoro> Most recent ones, as it's a method of copy prevention
[04:48] <rhpot1991> a method that once again hurts legitimate usage and the pirates still get their way
[04:48] <rhpot1991> don't even play back in some real dvd players
[04:49] <sintral> anyone else got ideas on tv playback issues?
[04:50] <sintral> it looks to be failing here: "Using protocol version 40 2008-06-04 23:49:03.988 TV: Attempting to change from None to WatchingLiveTV 2008-06-04 23:49:03.988 Using protocol version 40 2008-06-04 23:49:05.085 GetEntryAt(-1) failed."
[04:51] <marty> the one im testing with it is the shawshank redemption...lol its an old one :)
[04:51] <marty> i think its the first dvd i ever bought
[04:51] <sintral> followed by: " EntryToProgram(0@Wed Dec 31 19:00:00 1969) failed to get pginfo TV Error: LiveTV not successfully started TV Error: LiveTV not successfully started TV: Deleting TV Chain in destructor DPMS Deactivated"
[04:56] <rhpot1991> marty: I have problems with some older uncommon discs
[04:56] <marty> hrmmm
[04:57] <marty> anyone ever screwed with xbmc by any chance?
[04:57] <marty> wondering how that works
[05:06] <rhpot1991> long ago
[05:06] <rhpot1991> it used to work well with 0
[05:06] <rhpot1991> 0.20.2
[05:07] <rhpot1991> last I heard they added some real mythtv support as well, there is info on the wiki
[07:15] <MythbuntuGuest10> Hullo, anyone around for help? I've got MythBuntu up and running, but my IR reciever isn't doing anything as far as I can tell. And I'm completely lost as to how to tell.
[07:40] <Bob24> hello
[07:40] <Bob24> could someone please help me with sharing?
[07:41] <Bob24> on Mythbuntu how can you share for example the /var/lib/mythtv/recordings directory on ftp?
[07:46] <Bob24> is anyone here at the momennt?
[09:06] <Bob24> anyone there?
[10:02] <Bob24> hello
[10:02] <Bob24> anyone here?
[10:05] <laga> no
[10:05] <laga> :)
[10:06] <Bob24> hi laga
[10:06] <Bob24> how are ya?
[10:06] <Bob24> on Mythbuntu how can you share for example the /var/lib/mythtv/recordings directory on ftp?
[10:06] <laga> tired but good. :)
[10:07] <Bob24> ok
[10:07] <laga> i don't know, i haven't set up an ftp server in a long time...
[10:07] <laga> i think vsftpd is all the rage these days
[10:07] <Bob24> ah ok
[10:07] <laga> because it's supposed to be more secure than the others
[10:07] <laga> but i don't know if it's easy to set up
[10:07] <Bob24> im using pure ftp server and its working fine
[10:08] <Bob24> but i would just like to know how to setup seperate folders
[10:08] <laga> ah, so what's the problem?
[10:08] <laga> ah, i guess you'll have to look into the pureftpd documentation then
[10:09] <Bob24> i looked through it i cant find wat i was looking for :(
[10:37] <Bob24> on ubuntu how can you share for example the /var/lib/mythtv/recordings directory on ftp? im using pure ftp.
[10:42] <hads> FTP is so 1990 :)
[10:43] <Bob24> what should i use?
[10:43] <Bob24> windows tranfer is very slow
[10:44] <Bob24> through ftp quicker but more complicated to setup share folders
[10:48] <Bob24> hads can u help me plz?
[10:48] <hads> Depends what you want to do. On a LAN you would use NFS/Samba, over the 'net you would use SCP/SFTP
[10:52] <Bob24> on ubuntu how can you share for example the /var/lib/mythtv/recordings directory on ftp? im using pure ftp.
[10:52] <Bob24> thats what i would like todo
[10:56]  * hads doesn't use FTP
[10:57] <Bob24> hmm ok
[10:57] <Bob24> wat u recomend i should do?
[10:57] <hads> Just what I said.
[11:29] <Bob24> hads u their
[11:30] <Bob24> ?
[11:30] <Bob24> could someone please tell me how you can link a folder to see other folders?
[11:38] <hads> ln
[11:39] <Bob24> so just say i want to link myth folder
[11:40] <laga> well
[11:40] <laga> nobody is gonna walk you through everything, you'll have to do some reading yourself :)
[11:40] <Bob24> would i do ln -s /home/ftpusers/myth (to) /nas2
[11:40] <Bob24> will i be able to then view the nas2 folder in myth
[11:41] <Bob24> would this be the corect command?
[11:45] <Bob24> so no one can answer this question
[11:48] <Bob24> i do not understand the purpose of an irc when in ubuntu their is 1200 users and not one will even help they would just tell you to go and search for yourself, when i ask these questions, this already means that i have done a search and i would like a bit more info on it.
[11:48] <Bob24> same as this irc room
[12:02] <hads> People on IRC are not your Mum, they aren't going to hold your hand. The reason people tell you to go search yourself is probably in the hopes that you will learn how to help yourself more effectively.
[12:05] <Bob24> u use this to make a symbolic link right to see the contents of user in myth correct: so like this sudo ln -s /user /home/ftpusers/myth
[12:07] <hads> http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=linux+create+symbolic+link
[12:17] <Bob24> i already solved it dw
[12:21] <hads> I'm not.
[12:59] <tmapj> can anyone tell me is mythbuntu for watching online television?
[12:59] <hads> Mostly normal broadcast
[13:07] <tmapj> h  what do you mean normal broadcastads:
[13:07] <tmapj> hads:  what do you mean normal broadcasts:
[13:08] <hads> As in normal TV
[13:08] <tmapj> so like, i have to hook up my computer to my home cable or satellite?
[13:09] <hads> If you would like.
[13:09] <tmapj> but no internet tv?
[13:10] <hads> I believe there's some support.
[13:10] <tmapj> ok
[14:19] <superm1> anyone here w/ an nvidia card, hardy, and a few minutes that could test something?
[14:34] <superm1> well if so, please visit http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=819339 and test those bug(s) if you can
[15:12] <frink_> hey superm1 !
[15:49] <phantommig> hello!  anyone have a setup where they have their dish || direct tv receivers in a closet somewhere hooked up to their tuner cards on a backend and able to control them on frontends around the house.  Or is this the wrong way to do it?
[16:19] <tgm4883_laptop> way to wait 6 minutes for a response phantommig, that is basically the exact setup I have
[16:21] <jphillip> tgm4883_laptop my thoughts exactly
[16:22] <tgm4883_laptop> eh, almost fit
[16:23] <iamlindoro__> s/ques/???/
[16:23] <tgm4883_laptop> questions
[16:23] <iamlindoro__> yes, It's a sed statement
[16:23] <tgm4883_laptop> the topic can only be so long though
[16:23] <tgm4883_laptop> ah
[16:23]  * tgm4883_laptop smacks head
[16:23] <iamlindoro__> search and replace ques = ????
[16:23] <tgm4883_laptop> it's too early
[16:23] <iamlindoro__> hehe
[16:23] <iamlindoro__> ;)
[16:23] <iamlindoro__> I know the feeling :)
[16:24] <iamlindoro__> As a huge sarcasm connoisseur, I am 100% behind the /topic
[16:25] <tgm4883_laptop> yep, people need to realize that IRC isn't 24/7/365 paid support
[16:27] <jphillip> change it to "please stick around for people to answer your question, it might take some time" or something like that
[16:28] <jphillip> I thought we had some etiquete thing somewhere
[16:28] <tgm4883_laptop> like anyone reads that
[16:28] <tgm4883_laptop> I doubt anyone reads the topic
[16:29] <jphillip> is the bot coming back ever?
[16:29] <jphillip> been gone for a while now
[16:29]  * tgm4883_laptop goes to eat
[16:35] <Seeker`> which bot?
[16:53] <jphillip> ubotu or something
[16:54] <jphillip> been a while since he has been around
[16:54] <laga> blame seveas. he took the bot offline
[17:01] <tgm4883_laptop> hmm
[17:20] <jphillip> laga plans to ever bring it back or no?
[17:51] <laga> jphillip: we'll probably have our own bot
[17:51] <laga> i don't know seveas, i just know he took the bot offline :)
[19:45] <killaz> hi the sound on my system now is very low. How can I make it harder..
[19:45] <laga> harder?
[19:45] <killaz> I mean louder
[19:45] <killaz> sorry :-)
[19:46] <killaz> I tried to install xfce-mixer. To control the sound but I had no luck.... I can hardly hear the sound using mythtv
[19:46] <laga> try alsamixer in a terminal
[19:46] <killaz> xfc34-mixer I mean
[19:47] <killaz> xfce4-mixer*
[19:48] <jphillip> alsamixer or go into the sound settings in mythtv and bump the volume there
[19:48] <jphillip> setup>general>3rd page IIRC
[19:51] <killaz> shoud I use ALSA:digital, ALSA:default.... etc
[19:54] <killaz> ALSA:default it is..
[19:54] <killaz> thank you guys
[19:55] <jphillip> np
[20:11] <killaz> guys one more question: I have the problem that my TV is showing the image a little bit outside the screen can I solve this with [
[20:11] <killaz> panning\
[20:12] <tgm4883_laptop> overscan
[20:12] <tgm4883_laptop> killaz, which version are you using?
[20:12] <killaz> but its not only in mythtv but also in the whole mythbunut OS... so I think I have to configure this in the nvidia/X settings?
[20:12] <killaz> shich version ofw hat?
[20:13] <tgm4883_laptop> yea it's an overscan problem
[20:13] <killaz> sorry for my typing errors
[20:13] <tgm4883_laptop> i'm not at home otherwise I could look up exactly where you need to go
[20:13] <tgm4883_laptop> but yea you can fix that in the nvidia tool i think
[20:14] <killaz> for normal TV that is great but not for a LCD screen
[20:15] <killaz> tgm4883_laptop: I'm wen to XNvidia settings
[20:15] <tgm4883_laptop> off to another class, back in 5
[21:30] <darthanubis> unable to delete a job
[22:16] <Seeker`> are people wanting a ubotu back in here?
[22:16] <Seeker`> I can attempt to get a replacement here if you really want it
[22:16] <laga> Seeker`: we're already working on a replacement
[22:16] <laga> i think tgm4883_laptop was on it
[22:17] <Seeker`> there is an official replacement version, but it is only going in to channels that request it / need it to keep the load on it down
[22:17] <tgm4883_laptop> Seeker`, we are going to replace it with a myth version
[22:18] <Seeker`> a "myth" version?
[22:18] <tgm4883_laptop> one with myth info
[22:19] <tgm4883_laptop> does the replacement post new bugs?
[22:27] <Seeker`> not sure
[22:31] <DutchLoki> hello
[22:32] <DutchLoki> anyone experience with the technotrend c-1501?
[22:32] <DutchLoki> I'm considering buying it for my Mythbuntu setup
[22:54] <DutchLoki> No one?
