[00:01] rockyrock, this is #mythbuntu [00:04] this is #ubuntu-mythtv [00:05] rockyrock, #mythbuntu forwards to #ubuntu-mythtv [00:05] are you thinking of #mythtv-users [00:05] tgm4883_laptop: ???? [00:06] who told you to ask about it here? [00:09] i didn't know that! Maybe! [00:09] i can't remember actually which room! [00:16] so can you help me! or somebody plzzzz... [00:17] hi. === mtoscano is now known as moj0rising [00:17] !hello [00:17] Sorry I don't know about hello [00:17] !hi [00:17] Thanks for being polite. But we are so dang awesome at solving problems that we wish you would just ask your question. Thanks. [00:18] hey, silly question. [00:18] I jsut got a new HDD [00:19] I set up this new drive with a fresh installation of mythdora and I am trying to move my data from the old drive to the new one [00:19] I am having trouble seeing the LVM groups on the old drive [00:19] um [00:19] I think you might be in the wrong channel, if you set it up with Mythdora [00:19] can anyone give me a shove in the right direction on how to get those to appear so I can mount them and read them. [00:19] haha. [00:19] you know, what? I am. haa. [00:20] weird. [00:20] sorry about that. [00:20] np [00:20] but if I had to guess [00:20] I meant to join the mythdora group. [00:20] you need to install the LVM software [00:20] good luck on your search [00:20] I use kubuntu for my desktop but mythdora for myth [00:20] ah. I have that [00:20] mythdora uses lvm by default [00:21] I'm sure that has lots of advantages but right now it's a real pain for me. :( [00:21] thanks for the tip! [00:21] can anybody give me just a tutorial?? [00:22] rockyrock, you just want a tutorial for installling Mythbuntu? [00:24] I want a tutorial to install anything that let me watch and record DVB channels!!!!!!! Please help me, i've been searching for 1 month but no answer!!! I have Ubuntu 8.04.1, i don't want to leave it, i want something that i can use inside my ubuntu [00:24] very simple! [00:30] hi guys ... I had a powers [00:31] bah [00:31] hi guys ... I had a powercut yesterday, since then when I start mythfrontend only the cursor keys on my keyboard do anything [00:32] ctrl+alt+del and numlock etc don't do anything - the cursor keys only seem to respond to the key being released too .. any ideas? [00:35] tgm4883_laptop: do you know any tutorial?? [00:36] rockyrock, have you tried the installation manual? [00:37] installation manual of mythbuntu??? yes i tried that one, but nothing! It says that i can but doesn't mention HOW! [00:37] also from mythbuntu website they mention that but doesn't mention how [00:39] rockyrock, you're looking for a tutorial on how to install mythbuntu then? [00:40] tgm4883_laptop: if i install mythbuntu then i'll have two ubuntu distros right???? I'll be a "dual runner", i don't want that. I want to use it in my current distro "Ubuntu 8.04.1" [00:41] rockyrock, ah [00:41] I understand now [00:41] so do you have a solution??? [00:41] yes [00:41] plzzzzzz what's it! [00:41] install mythbuntu-control-centre [00:41] ? [00:41] it's in the repos [00:42] oky, then? [00:42] rockyrock, do you already have a backend? [00:42] no [00:42] i did nothing [00:43] are you trying to convert this to a mythbuntu only machine, or are you still going to use it as a desktop? [00:43] no i want to use it as everyday desktop, i have only this PC! [00:43] ok [00:43] so install mythbuntu-control-centre [00:44] then start that program, and we can add mythtv parts from there [00:46] after i download and install mythbuntu-control-centre, do you have a tutorial for what should i do for this step? [00:47] rockyrock, no, although I'm looking to get it written [00:47] it's not really that hard though [00:48] i'll have you install a couple things from mythbuntu-control-centre, then i'll point you at where to start in the installation manual [00:50] so "all" i need to download is the mythbuntu-control-center, right? I have to go to an internet cafe to download the packages because my internet is slow, so plz tell me all i have to "download" from the internet now, so i can download them in the internet cafe. [00:51] ah [00:51] ok, im starting to understand more now [00:52] rockyrock, do you need a list of every package, or can I assume that dependencies will be taken care of [00:55] no don't care about the dependencies, just give me the main packages name [00:56] ok [00:56] you will need [00:56] mythtv-frontend, mythtv-backend-master [00:56] those should pull in all dependencies [00:56] what about plugins? [00:57] mythtv-backend-master should also pull in the mysql stuff, but in case it doesn't [00:57] mysql-client, mysql-server [01:01] so get those packages, plus any of the plugins you want [01:01] and if you want dvd's and such, you will need libdvdcss2, w32codecs (w64codecs), ffmpeg [01:01] xine or vlc if you prefer those video players [01:16] hi all [01:18] live to won't start on my box. Here's the log can anyone help me? [01:18] * live tv [01:19] http://pastebin.com/m7ee540c [01:22] it's saying permission denied on the recording file but the storage directory is my home dir [01:35] I'm trying to play some mkv files on my Mythbuntu box. I have an ATI x300, P4 3.2ghz HT, 2gig ram, and SATA drives. I re-encoded the files down from 1080p to 720p, and took out the dts and made it ac3, all with mencoder. They are still choppy. Another one that I had in 720p to begin with plays fine. Any ideas? [01:38] and I'm using the restricted drivers, from the restricted drivers thing. [01:39] !blankscreen | Steven_M [01:39] Steven_M: If you try to watch tv and are greeted with a blank screen and a return to the menu then please check the permissions on your recording directory. It should be owned by mythtv:mythtv, have permissions of 775, and not be inside your home directory [01:42] ok thanks === Martin_ is now known as equim- [02:14] I read around that "mplayer -fs -zoom -quiet -vo xv -monitoraspect 16:9 -lavdopts threads=2:fast:skiploopfilter=all -sws 0" would be a good line to use for my HD, but it seems to be for nvidia, not for ati, I'm not sure what other vo to use? === gbutters_zzzz is now known as gbutters === gbutters is now known as gbutters_zzzz [05:26] tgm4883_laptop: thanks :) [08:58] !help [08:58] Use ! followed by a topic to get help on the topic (if it exists) example: !logs.
