[00:40] <kwilliam> tgm4883_laptop: thanks for the reply.  I guess I'll just warn my roommates not to screw it up. ;-)
[00:41] <hads> Yeah, there's no multi-level access at the moment.
[00:42] <kwilliam> Might be a nice idea for the future.
[00:43] <kwilliam> Split up into 3 levels: Read only (e.g. see lineup and watch streaming vids), Schedule recordings, and Full Admin screw-it-up ability. :-)
[00:43] <kwilliam> (As a suggestion)
[00:44] <hads> I'm sure it's been suggested before, there's a feature request page on the mythtv wiki
[00:46] <kwilliam> I'll wait till I've had MythTV running for a while before I go making feature requests.  I like to get my bearings so I A) know wth I'm talking about and B) don't suggest things that either already exist or are already planned.
[00:46] <hads> :)
[01:07] <tgm4883_laptop> kwilliam, hads IIRC, it can't be done because of the way mythweb works
[01:07] <tgm4883_laptop> i've asked before in mythtv-users
[01:08] <hads> Yeah, from my memory of the code it would take a substatial re-write to enable multiple access levels.
[01:08] <hads> As it stands mythweb doesn't have any knowledge of users at all.
[01:08] <kwilliam> hm.  Well, that gives us something to look forward too at some point if they do a substantial rewrite
[01:36] <squish102> does any1 have a usb ir receiver and can tell me if they can 'cat /proc/bus/usb/devices
[01:36] <squish102> and get any results
[02:17] <a1fa> what is the easiest way to find out whats my mythtv db password?
[02:42] <tgm4883_laptop> a1fa, look in ~/.mythtv/mysql.txt
[02:42] <a1fa> i got it
[02:42] <a1fa> i am trying to connect my xbmc to it now
[02:42] <a1fa> my video card exploded
[02:45] <tgm4883_laptop> a1fa, natively or using the xbmc plugin?
[02:45] <a1fa> natively
[02:45] <a1fa> oh.. there is a special plugin for mythtv?
[02:45] <a1fa> i thought it was built in
[02:47] <tgm4883_laptop> a1fa, it is built in now
[02:47] <tgm4883_laptop> it used to be by plugin
[02:47] <a1fa> y
[02:48] <a1fa> u think my url was wrong
[02:48] <a1fa> i had mythtv://
[02:48] <a1fa> instead myth://
[02:48] <tgm4883_laptop> I have no idea, I didn't even know you had a problem
[02:59] <squish102> i am having such a problem with lirc in 8.04 :(
[03:02] <a1fa> hehe
[03:02] <a1fa> i get list of shows but no playback
[05:09] <pteague> where do i go to find a list of my series that i'm recording?
[05:14] <pteague> nm
[06:32] <rcampbel> I think I have found a mythbuntu-specific bug - screensaver comes back on in mythgame after $DELAY because joypad doesn't trigger mouse or keyboard events. Guessing mythbuntu needs a patch for mythgame
[06:34] <rcampbel> last time I checked - the gnome screensaver disable patch hadn't been accepted by mythtv devs in trunk... has that changed?
[06:36] <foxbuntu> rcampbel, I dont know, but check with the mythtv devs/bug track ect they will prob be able to tell you if nothing else report the bug in LP and we can route/deal with it appropriately
[12:24] <ThatOtherGuy> My PVR_150 irblaster/receiver combo is giving me endless amounts of shit and fail. Gogo ordering a serial blaster >_>
[12:32] <squish102> ThatOtherGuy is that with 8.04?
[12:33] <ThatOtherGuy> Yea
[12:33] <ThatOtherGuy> Can get the remote to work but as soon as I set up the blaster, it stops
[12:34] <ThatOtherGuy> even if I tell it not to load the lirc-pvr150 module and stick with the i2c, or visaversa
[12:34] <squish102> ive had endless shit and fail with multiple usb ir receivers since going to 8.04
[12:34] <ThatOtherGuy> this is the old standard 150, not the mce - no USB anything
[12:42] <ThatOtherGuy> from what I can find on the intarwebs, nobody can coax anything but endless shit and fail out of the pvr-150 non-mce
[12:44] <laga> squish102: we didnt see a bug report from that
[12:45] <laga> where "we" is the ubuntu guys ;)
[12:57] <squish102> laga i would not know how to report a bug, as all I am doing is following a myth wiki page and i get to the point of running an irw and get nothing
[12:57] <squish102> can i report a bug with those details?
[12:58] <squish102> http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Snapstream_firefly_mini < that is the page i was following
[12:58] <squish102> and it all worked before the upgrade, and even with a fresh install of 8.04 i cannot get it to work
[12:59] <squish102> everything works up until: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Snapstream_firefly_mini#Configure_lirc the part about irw
[13:05] <laga> squish102: http://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lirc - include what you did, why you think it shouldn't work, if it worked before with the same config etc
[13:09] <squish102> laga, im going to try a live cd with 7.10 to confirm that it works 100%
[13:09] <squish102> (although from googling, i think i will be doing what many people have done before)
[13:10] <squish102> thanks for the link, i will try create something meaningful
[13:10] <squish102> without recompiling the latest lirc so that i can put in debug mode to figure out
[13:18] <squish102> although for a different remote, i may try this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lirc/+bug/204960
[14:58] <tearor> is it possible to use something different than nvram wakeup in mythwelcome? i use /proc/acpi/alarm (although it's an newer kernel) but the mythtv-mythwelcome-wiki has only information about nvram-wakeup
[15:13] <SMut> Moin!
[15:14] <SMut> Anybody in the mood to give some advice?
[15:14] <SMut> I set up mythbuntu 8.04 on a 64 bit machine.
[15:15] <SMut> Used DVB-S Device is a Terratec cinergy 1200 DVB-S
[15:15] <SMut> I already scanned some channels, filled the database.
[15:16] <SMut> Backend seems to be okay, but:
[15:16] <SMut> When I am using the frontend, DVDs play fine, but I can't watch TV.
[15:17] <SMut> When I press on the button, the screen goes black for a second and bounces back to the menu.
[15:17] <SMut> Any hints what I've missed during setup?
[15:17] <SMut> ...
[15:19] <SMut> by the way, /var/log/messages shows nothing.
[15:34] <jphillip> !blankscreen | SMut
[15:34] <Zinn> SMut: 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
[15:46] <SMut> Zinn: I'll check this.
[15:48] <tearor> i don't get the part in the mythtv-mythwelcom wiki about mythshutdown with acpi. i configured the backend to use mythshutdown. then i put the echo $time > /porc/acpi/alarm command into the mythwelcome settings
[15:48] <tearor> but in the wiki it says mythshutdown only uses time_t
[15:48] <SMut> Zinn: you made my day :-)
[15:49] <tearor> i can't find a script to change time_t into utc
[15:51] <tearor> and the "--settime <time_t>"-line, where do i have to insert it? after the echo $time > /proc/acpi/alarm command?
[16:11] <jphillip> SMut Zinn is a bot, but your welcome :)
[16:16] <tim__> i need to record 400+ cctv security cameras simultaneously.  Is myth a good match for this need?  if so... does it support recording mpeg4 streams from IP cameras?  is there a more appropriate software package for my need? thanks
[16:24] <squish102> tim__ did you look at http://www.zoneminder.com/ ?
[16:28] <tim__> squish: i hadn't looked at it.  do you think that's more appropriate?
[16:32] <tim__> squish:  just looked it up.... it claims to NOT support mpeg streams
[16:44] <squish102> tim__ i thought i read that the network cameras supported mpeg streaming
[16:46] <squish102> Supports live video in mpeg video, multi-part jpeg and stills formats.
[16:51] <tim__> squish:  where did u find that?  Here's what I found under their "to do"... Support mpeg video as an input. This is easy to pick up if it’s a tcp stream, but a bit more of a pain if it’s over udp
[16:54] <squish102> tim__ i have never tried getting network camera's running on zoneminder, why not try join #zoneminder, i'm sure you will get more help there
[16:58] <tim__> thanks much.
[17:03] <MythbuntuGuest00> hi..i havea  problem with my mythbuntu configuration..i added it to an existing ubuntu 8.04 system and it automatically installed just the frontend set..now i tried to install a backend on that system cause i wanted both frontend and backend and i encountered some issues regarding to the mysql database or backend application..i can figure out what's happening
[17:03] <MythbuntuGuest00> *can't
[17:04] <MythbuntuGuest00> i run the mythtv-setup application but it's like mysql server is down
[17:05] <MythbuntuGuest00> anyone can help me?
[17:06] <EgonOn> is the mythbuntu mythtv-backend able to run "sudo-commands"?
[17:06] <EgonOn> i mean without needing the password
[17:07] <EgonOn> i'm asking this becaue i want to find out if sudo halt -p in the backend setup works...
[17:08] <EgonOn> trying to setup mythtv to shutdown instead of idleing
[18:23] <SMut> where do the cover pictures for videos reside inside mythbuntu?
[18:24] <SMut> the path for videos seems to be /var/lib/mythtv/videos
[18:31] <tgm4883_laptop> SMut, in ~/.mythtv/MythVideos
[18:31] <tgm4883_laptop> maybe in covers/ inside of that
[21:43] <tim__> myth can't get channel info from my m3u.  how do I define the channel in an m3u file?
