| dmz | anyone have any thoughts on where i set the output "decoder" type (to support hw mpg decoder in frontend)? | 01:26 |
| Jorophose | Uhh, this is more of a MythTV question than anything else, but there are no mythtv IRC channels, so... My cable company gave me a cablebox for digital TV, because we're affected by the analog TV shutdown as well... According to the mythtv FAQ, for digital channels with digital cable, you need the box, but it says you need an analog card; is it just that the signal is transfered as analog in the end? If not, | 01:58 |
| Jorophose | ATSC card, assuming that's the digital tuner? | 01:58 |
| hads | Jorophose: There is a mythtv channel - #mythtv-users | 02:01 |
| Jorophose | on Freenode NA? It's not coming up for me =/ | 02:01 |
| Jorophose | regardless, I think I solved my own problem; the tuner card I'm looking at is analog only, so if the cablebox outputs to analog, all the better I guess... | 02:02 |
| hads | OK then. | 02:02 |
| SHADOW__X1 | hello i am trying to run mysqldump but i am having an issue is it different for mybuntu | 02:03 |
| hads | What's the issue? | 02:03 |
| SHADOW__X1 | error 1045 | 02:03 |
| SHADOW__X1 | access dennied | 02:04 |
| hads | So you're not using correct authentication credentials. | 02:04 |
| SHADOW__X1 | which ok so i changed the -u command to --user and -p to --password= | 02:04 |
| SHADOW__X1 | yeah well i am pulling it from the front end and its not working | 02:04 |
| SHADOW__X1 | unless one char isnt right | 02:04 |
| hads | cat /etc/mythtv/mysql.txt | 02:04 |
| hads | The credentials are in there. | 02:05 |
| SHADOW__X1 | now i get a 1044 error and i was wrong on the pass the letter was different then it appeared | 02:11 |
| SHADOW__X1 | nvm | 02:12 |
| SHADOW__X1 | my bad i fixed it | 02:12 |
| SHADOW__X1 | thanks hads | 02:12 |
| hads | np | 02:15 |
| dmz | question...where does mythbuntu save it's X settings? /etc/X11/xorg.conf doesn't show the driver or resolution settings | 02:15 |
| hads | X now does magic stuff to figure that out automatically. | 02:16 |
| dmz | well that magic stuff isn't working :) | 02:16 |
| dmz | i'm running on a via evia board | 02:16 |
| hads | You can override it by putting things in xorg.conf | 02:16 |
| SHADOW__X1 | hey hads where are recordings saved again | 02:16 |
| hads | SHADOW__X1: Whereever you setup | 02:16 |
| dmz | and the only video playback that works is when i use mplayer, live tv, recordings and non-mplayer recordings all cause frontend to die & it goes back to gdm | 02:17 |
| SHADOW__X1 | by default using mythbuntu | 02:17 |
| hads | Not sure | 02:17 |
| dmz | the little preview window works in the recordings list, but whenever i choose a recording frontned dies and drops back to gdm | 02:17 |
| dmz | i've turned on "-v most" for the log (btw /var/log/mythtv isn't created w/frontend only so frontend logs are not created by default) | 02:18 |
| SHADOW__X1 | hads va/lib/mythtv | 02:19 |
| dmz | but the last message in the frontend log is that it's XvMC is the VideoOutputXV, then it starts to read/write then borks X :( | 02:19 |
| dmz | mplayer works great, but i can't use that for my recordings | 02:20 |
| dmz | X appears to be using XvMC drivers, so this makes no sense | 02:20 |
| superm1 | kirkland, pong | 02:21 |
| dmz | also i've modified the gdm config (both /etc/gdm/gdm.conf & /etc/gdm/gdm-cdd.conf) and changed GdmXserverTimeout to be 10 instead of 30 and whenever it dies it still waits 30 seconds to autologon | 02:22 |
| dmz | oh well guess i can try another distro for my frontend if it doesn't work on via boards, should i try mythbuntu 7 before i give up on mythbuntu 8? | 02:23 |
| dmz | no thoughts? | 02:27 |
| dmz | ok i think it's the XvMC drivers in mythbuntu, i just retested with minimyth and it works "great" | 02:38 |
| dmz | ok mythbuntu does not work on via boards | 02:44 |
| MythbuntuGuest31 | booting diskless frontend gives the following 2 errors; PXE-T02 : Forbidden Directory, PCE-E3C: TFTP error - access violation | 02:51 |
| MythbuntuGuest31 | any ideas, thanks | 02:56 |
| MythbuntuGuest37 | I've got 8.04.1 running and it records just fine.... but the playback is really bad... Xine plays the recordings just fine. What did I do wrong? | 03:11 |
| SHADOW__X1 | hey hads how do i restore the database | 03:12 |
| MythbuntuGuest37 | googling "restoring database mythtv" turned up | 03:16 |
| MythbuntuGuest37 | mysqldump -u mythtv -pmythtv mythconverg -c > mythtv_backup.sql | 03:16 |
| SHADOW__X1 | thats backing up | 03:16 |
| MythbuntuGuest31 | got past that by editing /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf, now I see the mythbuntu boot screen the transtions to a fast blink cursor | 03:16 |
| MythbuntuGuest37 | right | 03:18 |
| MythbuntuGuest37 | there a bunch more.... | 03:18 |
| MythbuntuGuest37 | here's the link: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=384511 | 03:18 |
| MythbuntuGuest31 | looks like it about to start x but instead it dies on a fast blink _ | 03:19 |
| MythbuntuGuest31 | how can I debug the front end at this point | 03:20 |
| MythbuntuGuest37 | The playback in mythtv stutters horribly... so far I've tried changing in the config to a lower cpu setting and that helped some... but it played using 7.10 just fine and xine does too... | 03:23 |
| MythbuntuGuest31 | fast blink transitioned to ; Busy box cv1.1.3 (Debien 1:1.1.3-5ubuntu12)built-in shell (ash) (initramfs)_ | 03:29 |
| MythbuntuGuest37 | I think I have to make my default player xine... | 03:31 |
| MythbuntuGuest37 | there appears to be no way to change the which player should playback the 'recordings'. Please correct me.. | 03:58 |

| doje | hi, where should I put a bootup script in ubuntu ? in suse I would put things in /etc/init.d/boot.local to avoid making an rc script. | 04:53 |
| DurtDiggler | what would be the best possible card I could get for mythtv | 05:04 |
| superm1 | doje, depends | 05:14 |
| superm1 | doje, if you need something at "login" | 05:14 |
| superm1 | eg with a gui | 05:14 |
| superm1 | then it will be part of your profile | 05:14 |
| superm1 | if its adding a small action /etc/rc.local is a good place to modify | 05:14 |
| doje | superm1: someone told me in #ubuntu - /etc/rs.local was what I was looking for. | 05:14 |
| superm1 | rc.local is what they mean | 05:15 |
| doje | superm1: my typo | 05:15 |
| doje | thanks | 05:15 |
| superm1 | no prob | 05:15 |
| superm1 | DurtDiggler, that's a pretty big opinionated question | 05:15 |
| superm1 | and depends a lot on your locale, your goals | 05:15 |
| superm1 | and your budget | 05:15 |
| DurtDiggler | I know that | 05:15 |
| DurtDiggler | but there can still be some obvious answers | 05:16 |
| superm1 | you are probably best summarizing the things i just mentioned in a form post | 05:16 |
| superm1 | and having people respond to that | 05:16 |
| doje | superm1: is there any kind of GUI for configing LCD proc yet ? | 05:16 |
| superm1 | doje, dont believe so | 05:16 |
| doje | superm1: who should I talk to if I wanted to work on such a thing ? | 05:17 |
| superm1 | doje, well you can talk to the lcdproc authors | 05:17 |
| superm1 | and see if one was in process already | 05:17 |
| doje | superm1: I guess I was thinking in terms of the mythbuntu control panel - are those panels authored by app authors ? | 05:18 |
| superm1 | doje, ah if you'd like to add a panel to MCC, we are quite open to that | 05:18 |
| superm1 | doje, the app is in the process of being overhauled to allow those things to be added on in separate packages | 05:18 |
| doje | superm1: cool. it would be nice to add some gui support for that i think | 05:18 |
| superm1 | laga, is demonolithicizing it right now | 05:18 |
| superm1 | and yes, that is a word starting now | 05:19 |
| superm1 | doje, so you can either start and add the panel now, or wait a few weeks for the demonolithization to complete | 05:19 |
| superm1 | and then there will be a good API for adding additional plugins without breaking or modifying existing things | 05:20 |
| doje | superm1: "demonolithization" hehe | 05:20 |
| doje | superm1: I think I'd be interested in learning what the new way of doing things will be | 05:20 |
| superm1 | doje, okay well if you come back in a few weeks, we'd be glad to guide you into writing the first non monolithic plugin for it | 05:22 |
| doje | superm1: Sweet! | 05:22 |
| doje | superm1: to boldly go... | 05:23 |
| kirkland | superm1: sorry, was out at dinner late tonight. was just pinging about my patches to bug #251325 and bug #251330 | 06:07 |
| superm1 | kirkland, ah no problem. i commented on one of those bugs, and someone else commented on the other | 06:07 |
| superm1 | i was wondering about if those lsb functions are in < intrepid too | 06:07 |
| * kirkland checks his mail now | 06:07 | |
| kirkland | superm1: no, they're not | 06:08 |
| superm1 | kirkland, any chances of a backport? | 06:08 |
| kirkland | superm1: well, it's really compact | 06:08 |
| kirkland | superm1: i'll bring it up in our next meeting | 06:08 |
| superm1 | kirkland, okay great. backportability is an important thing for myth folk | 06:08 |
| kirkland | superm1: yeah, good point | 06:09 |
| superm1 | kirkland, they dont seem to want to jump to ubuntu+1 crack but just want to update myth sometimes | 06:09 |
| kirkland | superm1: well, one option would be to just drag-n-drop the status_of_proc() function itself into the downlevel myth init scripts | 06:09 |
| kirkland | superm1: that's what I did on my local setup :-) | 06:09 |
| superm1 | kirkland, yeah that's a possible solution too, albeit a bit ugly | 06:09 |
| kirkland | superm1: ugly, agreed. | 06:10 |
| superm1 | especially if a real backport can be done by the lsb stuff | 06:10 |
| kirkland | superm1: let me talk to slangasek | 06:10 |
| superm1 | okay sounds good | 06:10 |
| kirkland | superm1: or even kees might have an opinion | 06:10 |
| kirkland | superm1: can you take the patch for intrepid going forward? | 06:10 |
| kirkland | superm1: or do you want to wait on the backport question? | 06:10 |
| superm1 | lets hold off on the backport question | 06:10 |
| superm1 | and then we'll see the right way to go | 06:10 |
| kirkland | superm1: k | 06:10 |
| kirkland | superm1: you know, backporting might be possible now that Debian took the patches | 06:11 |
| superm1 | as for mythtv-status, was that the maintainer, Andrew who responded? | 06:11 |
| kirkland | lemme go read that one now | 06:11 |
| kirkland | superm1: okay he has a point on the mythtv-status bit | 06:13 |
| kirkland | looking more closely at the script | 06:13 |
| superm1 | yeah | 06:15 |
| kirkland | superm1: okay, i marked that one invalid and retracted my patch | 06:16 |

| dmandell | I've got an interesting/weird problem with the CPU usage of mythfrontend in Mythbuntu... it's a little bit long but I'll try to explain it as best I can. | 18:32 |
| dmandell | I started using Ubuntu for MythTV with Feisty, and have been upgrading regularly with each release... but it's not really a "mythbuntu" box, it's ubuntu with all of the Myth stuff added. | 18:33 |
| dmandell | I recently decided I wanted to increase the hard drive space on my machine and add mirroring, so I bought two 1tb drives and installed Mythbuntu using the alt install disk. Other than the hard drives, all of the other hardware is the same. | 18:34 |
| dmandell | After the installation completed I installed the same version of the NVidia driver I was using on the old hard drive, copied xorg.conf from the old machine, backed up mythconverg from the old hard drive and restored it on the new hard drive. | 18:36 |
| dmandell | Everything works really well, but whereas before mythfrontend used between 35-50% of one CPU for HD playback, now it uses between 80 and 100. | 18:36 |
| dmandell | With the same xorg.conf, nvidia drivers, and playback settings in Mythtv, I'm not sure what else to do... anybody have any idea of what would cause the vastly different cpu utilization? | 18:37 |
| dmandell | Hardware for the machine (other than the hard drives): M2NPV-VM mb with onboard nvidia 6150, AMD x2 4600+ dual core cpu, 2gb memory. | 18:38 |
| tgm4883_laptop | dmandell, did you use xvmc on the previous system? | 20:08 |
| darthanubis | does mythzmserver start itself after install or do I have to make it a service? | 20:40 |
| sebrock | is screensaver after 10 minutes a feature or a bug... | 20:44 |
| dmandell | tgm4883: I did not, no. | 20:48 |
| dmandell | tgm4883_laptop: no | 20:48 |
| tgm4883_laptop | dmandell, and you used MythTV .21 before? | 20:49 |
| tgm4883_laptop | darthanubis, IIRC mythzmserver should start itself | 20:49 |
| tgm4883_laptop | darthanubis, I haven't played with it all that much recently though | 20:49 |
| tgm4883_laptop | sebrock, during playback, or at the menu screen? | 20:50 |
| darthanubis | thx:) | 20:50 |

| darthanubis | and I don't remember having to start it tmanually | 20:50 |

| TheBlasphemer | on a user tightvnc server it seems fine | 21:12 |
| TheBlasphemer | Odd, but manageable | 21:13 |
| TheBlasphemer | Might be related to everything being oddly colored on the system-wide VNC :/ | 21:13 |
| dmandell | tgm4883_laptop: Yes, I was using .21 before. | 22:22 |
| dmandell | All of the myth packages are what's included in hardy. | 22:22 |
