ian_001if i wanted to build mythtv from source would i be best to get the latest from myths repo or should i use source used to build the latest mythbuntu?03:12
hardlinedI just installed mythbuntu 8.04.1 with an analog tv attached. The picture is off to the right a little bit, and xrandr doesn't seem to be working, any ideas how I can move the screen over a bit?03:22
hardlinedonly seems to happen with the proprietary nvidia driver, nv works fine03:27
UnNaturalHighis there a mythbuntu release for the ps3?03:59
XJmanHi, I'm attempting to run a file server. We have one pc that will feed the video to our Home theater system directly, and of course the file server to hold the massive amount of data I've got04:04
XJmanI also would like to use the desktop as a regular pc. Will I be able to do that while streaming video to another pc over gigabit ethernet/04:04
tgm4883_laptopXJman, I suppose04:05
joati don't have any trouble with other low bandwidth stuff...04:05
tgm4883_laptopUnNaturalHigh, no04:06
joatwith another app that wants to use a sizeable chunk of bandwith the video playback gets a little jittery04:06
tgm4883_laptopUnNaturalHigh, although you could see if there are the packages in the repo for it, you could install regular Ubuntu04:06
joatthen again, I'm usually pushing that video over 802.11g04:06
UnNaturalHightgm4883_laptop, thanks04:07
tgm4883_laptopjoat, SD should be fine over G04:07
joatwith gigabit, the bottleneck probably won't be the network04:07
joatXJman was asking if he could use his box for other things while streaming04:07
tgm4883_laptopah04:07
tgm4883_laptopi was confused, as he has left04:08
joatXJman, the answer is "probably yes" as long as you don't have to do any transcoding04:08
tgm4883_laptopjoat, again, he is not here anymore04:08

joatapologies!04:09

bmathisi noticed on my PS3 that I can browse my myth recordings... while doing that I am able to watch shows that I didnt record but watched live instead. Is there anyway to flush that from my system?04:15
MythbuntuGuest15hi guys04:35
tgm4883_laptop!ask04:36
ZinnPlease don't ask if anyone is around or if it is alright to ask a question.  Many people check back periodically and may answer your question when they see it.  IRC is not normally an instant fix so check back often for an answer.04:36
MythbuntuGuest15Have problem getting Audio?04:37
MythbuntuGuest15I have VLC media Player and no Audio04:37
MythbuntuGuest48so close.... Diskless frontend boots up and loads interface but cannot find content.  /var/lib/mythtv/ exisist but no content05:37
MythbuntuGuest48where do I add my mount points for content?05:40
Mr_Bones_Just curious.... why isn't the user created during the mythbuntu install process made to already be in the mythtv group.  That seems like an obvious step to increase the usability of the install.06:01
Mr_Bones_if anyone in here is responsible for https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MythTV/Install/Troubleshooting, under the root@localhost section, the last item recommends running /etc/mythtv/mysql.txt, which isn't likely to work.06:19
MrChilly0what's up all07:02
MrChilly0just installed..watching tv on my lappy...but instead of 4:3 I have 2 views of the same channel, in the same window...one on top of the other...did I miss something in the setup?07:03
MrChilly0if I change channels..as soon as the number appears in the corner the screen goes to just one view, but then back to 2 when the channel changes07:04

MythbuntuGuest86and iders19:43
MythbuntuGuest86where is this set 2008-07-26 12:42:30.257 Connecting to backend server: localhost:6543 (try 1 of 5)19:57

tgm4883_laptop..20:25
MythbuntuGuest64when front end boots it shows error connecting to localhost.  is that information pulled from the backend when the image is built for the frontend?  thanks20:31
MythbuntuGuest64is the fix as easy as changing localhost in the back end and rebuilt the frontend image?20:32
tgm4883_laptopso i can assume that you are using diskless then?20:33

c3rb3rus52 questions...21:33
c3rb3rus51) is there an easier way of importing lots of previously native archivedrecording other then one by one?21:34
c3rb3rus5and a follow up to that - if i have the native exported files on a remote drive and i want to import them in to the local machine do i copy them over first, then import, or just import straight from the network drive21:35
c3rb3rus5and 2) why would my channel icon download button be greyed out?21:36
JoshEnglemanI am curious as to how I can remove the commercials from the TV I have recorded. I have edited the stream and flagged the commercials. I want to take out the commercials and have the file be in a format where it can be placed on a DVD once i have enough episodes to fill the DVD. If anyone can help me, that would be great as I cant seem to figure out based on reading the Wiki21:45
MythbuntuGuest27Hi, I have serveral questions 1) my video looks distored when I go to watch TV. Even the info boxes are distorted. However, the mythbuntu interface is fine 2) I am having trouble installing MythStreamTV. It cant find a template directory in the /var/www/mythweb directory. My goal is to broadcast my TV over the internet so I can watch it at another location. Thx Joseph21:56
Seeker`JoshEngleman: If the episode has a "cut list" (i.e. the commercials have been flagged) they can be automatically be stripped out when you burn them to DVD using the archive function22:07
lagaif you have flagged the commercials *manually* - at least you need to load the commercial list into the cut list22:08
c3rb3rus5this does not seem right:22:12
c3rb3rus52008-07-26 17:08:56.479 copying from /var/lib/mythtv/recordings/2039_20080311220000.mpg22:12
c3rb3rus52008-07-26 17:08:56.479 to /2039_20080311220000.mpg22:12
c3rb3rus5i dont have any dir in mytharchive settings set to /22:12
c3rb3rus5and its failing because there are not sufficient permissions to copy the file...22:13
sebrockin which file is the menu "Watch recordings" in?22:13
JoshEnglemanSeeker`: sorry for not responding to your reply sooner. basically as long as i have the cut list set up, when i am ready to burn the DVD, it will take out all of the commercials for me. i dont have to do anythign else? just want to make sure im understanding you correctly22:33
c3rb3rus5is there any way to do a batch import?22:38
MythbuntuGuest89diskless frontend shows "Connecting to backend server: localhost:6543 (try 1 of 5)"  gui shows, "could not connect to the master backend--is it running?22:52
Seeker`JoshEngleman: Yeah, there is a option in the archive option that obeys the cut list22:52
MythbuntuGuest89You probably should modify the Master Server,  where are is this modification? db connection tests fine22:53
MythbuntuGuest89frontend also shows "Connecting to backend server: localhost:6543"\22:53
lagaMythbuntuGuest89: in mythbuntu-control-centre22:54
lagaoh22:55
lagawait22:55
lagayou can modify that in mythtv-setup22:55
yaluI'm installing mythbuntu from the live cd, doing mythsetup now; and I'm stuck. I see the kernel recognises my nova-t usb dvb-t tuner, but in mythtv-setup when I select "dvb dtv tv-card" it says: "informatie over kaart #0 kon niet" (information about card #0 could not).23:09
yaluthe font is too big to display the entire message23:09
yaluI have a dvb/adapter0 file in /dev23:09
* yalu in sleep mode. feel free to highlight.23:21
