[03:12] <ian_001> if 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?
[03:22] <hardlined> I 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?
[03:27] <hardlined> only seems to happen with the proprietary nvidia driver, nv works fine
[03:59] <UnNaturalHigh> is there a mythbuntu release for the ps3?
[04:04] <XJman> Hi, 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 got
[04:04] <XJman> I 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/
[04:05] <tgm4883_laptop> XJman, I suppose
[04:05] <joat> i don't have any trouble with other low bandwidth stuff...
[04:06] <tgm4883_laptop> UnNaturalHigh, no
[04:06] <joat> with another app that wants to use a sizeable chunk of bandwith the video playback gets a little jittery
[04:06] <tgm4883_laptop> UnNaturalHigh, although you could see if there are the packages in the repo for it, you could install regular Ubuntu
[04:06] <joat> then again, I'm usually pushing that video over 802.11g
[04:07] <UnNaturalHigh> tgm4883_laptop, thanks
[04:07] <tgm4883_laptop> joat, SD should be fine over G
[04:07] <joat> with gigabit, the bottleneck probably won't be the network
[04:07] <joat> XJman was asking if he could use his box for other things while streaming
[04:07] <tgm4883_laptop> ah
[04:08] <tgm4883_laptop> i was confused, as he has left
[04:08] <joat> XJman, the answer is "probably yes" as long as you don't have to do any transcoding
[04:08] <tgm4883_laptop> joat, again, he is not here anymore
[04:09] <joat> ah
[04:09] <joat> apologies!
[04:09] <tgm4883_laptop> np
[04:15] <bmathis> i 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?
[04:35] <MythbuntuGuest15> hi guys
[04:36] <tgm4883_laptop> !ask
[04:36] <Zinn> Please 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.
[04:37] <MythbuntuGuest15> Have problem getting Audio?
[04:37] <MythbuntuGuest15> I have VLC media Player and no Audio
[05:37] <MythbuntuGuest48> so close.... Diskless frontend boots up and loads interface but cannot find content.  /var/lib/mythtv/ exisist but no content
[05:40] <MythbuntuGuest48> where do I add my mount points for content?
[06:01] <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.
[06:19] <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.
[07:02] <MrChilly0> what's up all
[07:03] <MrChilly0> just 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?
[07:04] <MrChilly0> if 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 changes
[07:16] <darthanubis> how does one start mythzmserver as a service?
[09:25] <darthanubis> when I back out of a recording I don't get the option to remember location or delete?
[09:25] <darthanubis> I forget where that is?
[09:47] <doje> hi all, how do i enable visualizations ?
[09:48] <doje> all I seem to have is "blank"
[09:48] <doje> does gforce work ?
[19:37] <MythbuntuGuest86> .
[19:38] <laga> ..
[19:43] <MythbuntuGuest86> I am setting up a diskless front end, I get the error cound not connect to the master backend server -- is it running/  the ip is correct in the general settings and in the control center the database connection test ok
[19:43] <MythbuntuGuest86> and iders
[19:57] <MythbuntuGuest86> where is this set 2008-07-26 12:42:30.257 Connecting to backend server: localhost:6543 (try 1 of 5)
[20:07] <MythbuntuGuest86> .
[20:21] <MythbuntuGuest64> .
[20:25] <tgm4883_laptop> ..
[20:31] <MythbuntuGuest64> when front end boots it shows error connecting to localhost.  is that information pulled from the backend when the image is built for the frontend?  thanks
[20:32] <MythbuntuGuest64> is the fix as easy as changing localhost in the back end and rebuilt the frontend image?
[20:33] <tgm4883_laptop> so i can assume that you are using diskless then?
[20:36] <MythbuntuGuest64> correct
[21:33] <c3rb3rus5> 2 questions...
[21:34] <c3rb3rus5> 1) is there an easier way of importing lots of previously native archivedrecording other then one by one?
[21:35] <c3rb3rus5> and 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 drive
[21:36] <c3rb3rus5> and 2) why would my channel icon download button be greyed out?
[21:45] <JoshEngleman> I 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 Wiki
[21:56] <MythbuntuGuest27> Hi, 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 Joseph
[22:07] <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 function
[22:08] <laga> if you have flagged the commercials *manually* - at least you need to load the commercial list into the cut list
[22:12] <c3rb3rus5> this does not seem right:
[22:12] <c3rb3rus5> 2008-07-26 17:08:56.479 copying from /var/lib/mythtv/recordings/2039_20080311220000.mpg
[22:12] <c3rb3rus5> 2008-07-26 17:08:56.479 to /2039_20080311220000.mpg
[22:12] <c3rb3rus5> i dont have any dir in mytharchive settings set to /
[22:13] <c3rb3rus5> and its failing because there are not sufficient permissions to copy the file...
[22:13] <sebrock> in which file is the menu "Watch recordings" in?
[22:33] <JoshEngleman> Seeker`: 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 correctly
[22:38] <c3rb3rus5> is there any way to do a batch import?
[22:52] <MythbuntuGuest89> diskless 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 list
[22:53] <MythbuntuGuest89> You probably should modify the Master Server,  where are is this modification? db connection tests fine
[22:53] <MythbuntuGuest89> frontend also shows "Connecting to backend server: localhost:6543"\
[22:54] <laga> MythbuntuGuest89: in mythbuntu-control-centre
[22:55] <laga> oh
[22:55] <laga> wait
[22:55] <laga> you can modify that in mythtv-setup
[23:09] <yalu> I'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] <yalu> the font is too big to display the entire message
[23:09] <yalu> I have a dvb/adapter0 file in /dev
[23:21]  * yalu in sleep mode. feel free to highlight.
