ffm | Is it realistic to make a mythbuntu machine out of an old 98 beige box? | 02:03 |
---|---|---|
ffm | (windows 98, shipped in 00 | 02:04 |
iamlindoro | ffm: You'll probably have to be more specific about what's in that beige box, but I will predict "no" | 02:09 |
ffm | iamlindoro: welll... 256mb ram... /me looks up... | 02:10 |
ffm | iamlindoro: Pentium III (Katmai) | 02:10 |
* ffm moves to #mythtv-users | 02:10 | |
foxbuntu | ffm, the strait answer is no | 02:12 |
foxbuntu | ffm, video encoding/decoding is a very CPU/GPU/Memory intensive process that your old machine has no guts to handle... | 02:13 |
ffm | foxbuntu: even sd? | 02:13 |
foxbuntu | ffm, even sd, I do mostly SD and my amd 3400+ with commflagging and everything else is maxed out | 02:14 |
rhpot1991 | I'd argue it depends on what roll the box has | 02:21 |
rhpot1991 | but as a whole you won't be too happy with performance on it | 02:21 |
foxbuntu | rhpot1991, comn...you always disagree with me just cuz you can | 02:39 |
=== ffm is now known as ffm|away | ||
rhpot1991 | foxbuntu: apparently we are destine to argue, 3rd time today | 02:51 |
foxbuntu | lol | 02:52 |
foxbuntu | its my 1337ness vs your hippiness | 02:52 |
foxbuntu | lol | 02:52 |
rhpot1991 | now I just need to go through these 120 or so unnamed channels here | 02:52 |
rhpot1991 | gonna be a pain | 02:52 |
rhpot1991 | most are prob garbage | 02:52 |
foxbuntu | yup | 02:52 |
foxbuntu | I need to recover a hdd with a broken partition | 02:53 |
rhpot1991 | dd it? | 02:53 |
foxbuntu | ddrescue | 02:53 |
rhpot1991 | ya | 02:53 |
foxbuntu | yea | 02:53 |
foxbuntu | its running now | 02:53 |
rhpot1991 | I'd do that then see what you can read | 02:53 |
rhpot1991 | I need to ddrescue another dvd | 02:53 |
rhpot1991 | freaking sony | 02:53 |
foxbuntu | problem is that the partition I have to rescue to is smaller than the amount of data on the other drive so I am hoping to grab the part info from the image and restore the partition | 02:54 |
foxbuntu | rather than recover and rebuild it | 02:54 |
rhpot1991 | ouch | 02:55 |
rhpot1991 | go buy a mybook to recover with and take it back | 02:55 |
rhpot1991 | gonna go watch a movie, cya | 02:55 |
foxbuntu | later | 02:55 |

Raspberry | is there a problem with the latest 24-18 kernel and the lirc drivers? | 04:57 |

zenum | Hello, I just finished installing mythbuntu-desktop from ubuntu-server 8.04 | 09:36 |
zenum | I can manage to log in to the main desktop, but i can't seem to connect to the backend which is the same server | 09:36 |
zenum | Looking at mysql there doesn't seem to be any mythtv databases created... is there a step which creates this? | 09:37 |

MythbuntuGuest52 | o dear =( | 09:59 |
=== MythbuntuGuest52 is now known as pobski | ||
pobski | any nightowls available to help a noob out with a quick question? | 10:00 |
pobski | i guess not. I'll just write it here and check back periodically. I installed mythbuntu following the instruction manual, and got most of the features working well. | 10:01 |
pobski | The problem I'm currently having is that my tuner (PVR-150) is only tuning in static to all of the channels i'm tuning in. | 10:02 |
pobski | I've searched it quite a bit, but all of the solutions I find aren't pertinent to 8.04. A lot of them refer to an older(I'm guessing) file structure and I'm unable to get it to work well. | 10:04 |

raslac | I'm having trouble with 6channel audio on spdif on my mythbuntu frontend :) Attempting a passthrough to my receiver, but whenver I check the passthrough boxes in mythtv, I get no output at all, instead of the 2channel pcm I get to the receiver. | 20:01 |
raslac | I can send 5.1 and dts from mplayer using -channels 6 -ac hwac3 or hwdts -channels 6 as options, but I've tried just about every permutation of choices in mythtv's audio config page. | 20:02 |
raslac | any ideas on something I might be missing? | 20:04 |
pobski | so i was looking around until pretty late last night, and i couldn't find the solution to my problem | 20:32 |
pobski | i go in to the backend setup and configure my capture card, video source, and input | 20:32 |
pobski | then I can scan channels and it comes up with the channels my tv normally finds, so i assume it's all good | 20:33 |
pobski | after that i go to the frontend, select watch tv, and all i get is static | 20:33 |
pobski | my tuner is a PVR-150 (low profile if it matters) and i'm running 8.04 | 20:34 |
pobski | has anyone else had a similar problem? i think i double checked the cable plugin about 10 times lol | 20:35 |
tgm4883_laptop | pobski, did you scan for channels or get channels from schedules direct? | 20:42 |
pobski | i got them from schedules direct | 20:43 |
pobski | i tried the different varieties of cable as well hrc irc, i don't really know what they mean though >.< | 20:44 |
pobski | there was a post on a forum from about a year ago that said you had to set "option mode = 50" in modprobe.conf | 20:44 |
pobski | but being the mythbuntu scrub i am, i don't know where that file is located for me to edit | 20:45 |

Berethend_ | Hey I'm having a minor problem with my MythTV running in Ubunut 8.04, anyone around to help? I read the sound problems FAQ with no success. I am getting a sound echo on video playback and the only way to correct it is to mute the master audio. Whenever I exit mythtv, the sound "resets" and becomes unmuted again so it's quite a pain to have to mute the master audio every time I want to watch... | 23:51 |
Berethend_ | ...media. Any fixes? | 23:51 |
