| Solarbaby | I used a Plextor ConvertX 402U for a while.. it wasn't bad | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| Solarbaby | thats usb | 00:00 |
| Solarbaby | not that its really an issue these days, just make sure your plugged into a usb 2.0 port | 00:01 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | if you just want OTA for now, I'd check out the HDHR | 00:02 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | works well, gets you OTA HD and clear QAM | 00:02 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | support is there out of the box | 00:02 |
| pdxguy | what is QAM? | 00:02 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | digital broadcast | 00:02 |
| Solarbaby | I need to look into that one myself | 00:02 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | most stuff is encrypted through cable companies, so you don't get a lot but you get some | 00:03 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | and your local's in HD | 00:03 |
| Solarbaby | oh its over the air.. I have satalite.. not a winning combination eh? | 00:03 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | not really | 00:04 |
| rhpot1991_laptop | Solarbaby: your best bet is to keep an eye on the HDPRV 1212 from hauppauge, there are beta drivers out | 00:05 |
| Solarbaby | will do.. Im still living with 1 single tuner card.. Hauppauge PVR 350.. I love the card.. but I've got HD in the next room and its just sitting there | 00:05 |
| pdxguy | When checking things out should I be looking for chipsets or API supported or what exactly? I'm not confident the sales people will know what will work or not. Or should I just buy online? | 00:08 |
| MythbuntuGuest58 | hello... I have been working on this MythTV box for days, and I'm stuck | 00:09 |
| MythbuntuGuest58 | when I click watch tv, the screen blinks and it goes back to the main menue | 00:09 |
| pdxguy | Anyone now how well (or if at all) the HVR-950Q works? | 00:14 |
| pcglue | SolarBaby, do you use the Composite In on your pvr350? | 00:28 |
| Solarbaby | pcglue: I use the svideo input.. | 00:43 |
| pcglue | solarbaby, what version of ubuntu are you running and what kernel version? I have trouble with composite in on hardy. I had to change to use the RF input. | 00:45 |
| Solarbaby | pcglue: im using Mythbuntu 8.04 | 00:46 |
| Solarbaby | and I've got to say everything worked right out of the box | 00:46 |
| pcglue | solarbaby, are you also using the audio line in on the pvr350? | 00:47 |
| Solarbaby | Yes | 00:47 |
| pcglue | hmm, ok. thanks. | 00:47 |
| Solarbaby | perhaps its your settings in Myth config that are the problems | 00:47 |
| pcglue | actually, video for composite in works. I just don't get the audio from the audio line in. | 00:48 |
| Solarbaby | I dont remember having a problem with that.. but you might try alsamixer | 00:48 |
| Solarbaby | just type that in from a shell and it loads up a gui that lets you config your sound | 00:49 |
| pcglue | ok, i'll give that a try. thanks. | 00:49 |
| Solarbaby | good luck | 00:49 |

| Nostahl | hey everyone i cant get past loading hardware drivers??? | 06:40 |
| kernel_ghost | does anyone know how i can configure a button on my remote to launch mythtv if I am not running the frontend | 09:40 |
| kernel_ghost | like can i configure lirc events for xfce | 09:41 |
| laga | you can use irexec | 09:41 |
| kernel_ghost | laga, sorry could you please elaborate, or point me at a config file etc | 09:42 |
| kernel_ghost | i see the irexec app | 09:42 |
| laga | you need to edit ~/.lircrc and include a new config file - in that config file, you can add the irexec stanza | 09:43 |
| laga | i'd assume irexec has a man page | 09:43 |
| kernel_ghost | laga yes reading it | 09:43 |

| Ace2016 | why is the desktop gnome? | 16:51 |
| Ace2016 | mythtv is a qt application so should it not be kde? | 16:52 |
| tgm4883 | Ace2016, um, it's not | 16:53 |
| tgm4883 | it's xfce | 16:53 |

| Nostahl | tryin to boot the mythbuntu live cd | 17:00 |
| Nostahl | i've tryed burning couple other cd's | 17:01 |

| jphillip | a1fa does it act the same using a keyboard during playback? | 20:57 |
| jphillip | could be the OSD fades, or just an underpowered system or playback profile settings too high | 20:57 |
| wil_ | Hi, I want to use acpi wakeup. And I know that I have to translate from time_t to a normal date, but I don't know how.... Does anyone have a pointer on how to do that? | 21:00 |
| laga | isn't there a script in the mythtv wiki | 21:17 |
| wil_ | @laga I can't seem to find it... | 21:22 |
| wil_ | well, go to go for now... Will find it out somehow or else just write my own python script | 21:22 |
| wil_ | but thanks anyway | 21:22 |
| laga | "man date" ;) | 21:23 |
| Nostahl | lol my installation has been copying installation logs for like 40 minutes | 21:39 |
| Nostahl | why is it taking so long | 21:39 |
| Nostahl | hi all i just got an error botting up mythbuntu it says Server Authorization director (daemon/ServAuthDir) is set to /var/lib/gdm but is not owned by user 108 and group 115. Please correct the ownership or GDM configuration and restart GDM | 22:18 |
| Nostahl | how do i fix that | 22:18 |
| laga | Nostahl: did the installation finish? | 22:21 |
| Nostahl | aye | 22:21 |
| laga | even the "copying installation logs" step? | 22:21 |
| Nostahl | aye | 22:21 |
| laga | odd | 22:22 |
| Nostahl | it took hours | 22:22 |
| laga | well, maybe google can turn up some hints | 22:22 |
| laga | but your installation probably is corrupt somehow | 22:22 |
| laga | you can fix broken permissions/ownership using chmod/chown | 22:22 |
| Nostahl | can you see if we can get that fixed see if thats all thats corrupt or something | 22:23 |
| Nostahl | yeah its bad install | 22:24 |
| Nostahl | saying cannot create temp file for here document : read only file system | 22:24 |
| Avenged-Revenge | manual recordings don't show up in recorded shows unless I do the "live tv" profile. Why doesn't default show up? | 23:25 |
