MythbuntuGuest31Needing assistance with MYSQL:  getting error mysqlcheck: Got error: 1045: Access denied for user 'mythbox'@'localhost' (using password: YES) when trying to connect02:05
MythbuntuGuest31Text file:  DBUserName=mythtv02:05
gomikereset your password02:05
MythbuntuGuest31gomike:  how is that done...  bit of a noob02:05
gomikeill have to google it one moment02:06
MythbuntuGuest31thanks02:06
gomikeThe mysql password is saved in the mysql.txt file. This file is usually in /etc/mythtv/mysql.txt or /home/mythtv/.mythtv/mysql.txt where mythtv is the user that runs the backend.02:07
gomikeJust edit the line DBPassword= to the password you want to use and then change the password with mysqladmin to change the password in Mysql.02:07
gomikeyou can type locate mysql.txt to find out where that file is02:08
gomikethen type sudo nano "file path"02:08
MythbuntuGuest31I might be entering the command incorrectly; Mythconverg issue....02:09
hads`sudo dpkg-reconfigure mythtv-common` will do that too.02:09
MythbuntuGuest31http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com/m5ce9881f02:09
gomikeyep hads, thats the command i was looking for02:09
gomikeguest31 do what hads said02:10
MythbuntuGuest31k02:10
MythbuntuGuest31can you check to see if I am entering the password and username correctly02:10
MythbuntuGuest31pasted the mysql.txt02:11
hadsJust enter -p on the command line and then it will prompt for the password02:11
hads`mysqlcheck -r -u mythtv -p mythconverg`02:12
hadsNote your mysql username is mythtv not mythbox02:12
MythbuntuGuest31yah...02:12
MythbuntuGuest31still getting the same error:   using the correct username and password02:13
Asa_Afyi, if you do enter the password on the commandline, for some reason it has to be up against the -p (ex -pKkEjcOPh)02:13
MythbuntuGuest31using this command"  mythbox@mythbox-desktop:~$ mysqlcheck -r -u mythtv -phero12 mythconverg02:14
Asa_Amysqlcheck was interpreting your password as the database name instead of mythconverg02:14
MythbuntuGuest31changed password to hero1202:14
MythbuntuGuest31any ideas?  I am stumped....  cannot get the tv to work; mythconverg is showing in the log file:  failing02:16
MythbuntuGuest31I have used the above command prior on a different box and it was fixed...  just getting this error.02:17
MythbuntuGuest31*now getting this error02:17
Asa_Aare you getting errors from mysqlcheck? maybe use the pastebin to show what the log file says is failing (if its more than one line)02:17
MythbuntuGuest31FIRST:  is this correct.... mysqlcheck -r -u mythtv -phero12 mythconverg02:18
MythbuntuGuest31mysqlcheck -r -u mythtv -phero12 mythconverg02:18

MythbuntuGuest57i have taken the cable out from settop box of cox & connected to tuner card04:03
tgm4883_laptopMythbuntuGuest57: IIRC, tuner 1 is the input source, and the none means that you haven't linked it to a data source yet04:03
tgm4883_laptopdarthanubis: logs you into mysql as root04:04
MythbuntuGuest57ok so how do I do it04:04

MythbuntuGuest57tgm4883_laptop: thanks a lot for all ur help.. I will try to play with the playback profiles & see how it plays04:39
MythbuntuGuest57appreciate ur help04:40
bronsonWhen the OSD comes up, playback gets really choppy.  And sometimes everything freezes up for a while, then continues.04:40
tgm4883_laptopMythbuntuGuest57: np04:40
tgm4883_laptopdarthanubis: just have one intrepid machine right now, will be a frontend when I get around to installing mythtv04:40
tgm4883_laptopbronson: the OSD, or the guide?04:41
bronsontgm4883_laptop, osd.  Like adjusting the volume.04:41
bronsonEach press of the volume button freezes the video for 0.5 sec or so.04:41
bronsonAnd occasionally it will freeze up for a good minute.04:41
bronsonI shouldn't say freeze... the computer is fine if I switch to a different desktop.04:42
bronsonBut the playback goes totally black for a while then seems to recover on its own.04:42
bronsonPretty bizarre...  wondering if it's pulseaudio related or something.04:42
tgm4883_laptopbronson: is this a new thing, or has it happened since you installed?04:44
bronsontgm4883_laptop, happened since I installed.04:46
tgm4883_laptopcomputer specs?04:46
bronsonIt didn't do it in Hoary but seems to on Feisty.04:46
bronsonIntel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU     E7200  @ 2.53GHz, non-free nvidia drivers, 2GB ram.04:47
bronsonCPU never goes above 30%, even when the video freezes.04:47
tgm4883_laptopinteresting04:49
tgm4883_laptopI haven't seen that issue myself, but I don't use the built in volume04:50
tgm4883_laptopwhat happens if you just hit "i" during playback for info?04:50
bronsonI'll try, brb04:50
bronsonWow, that was a good call.04:52
bronsonIt goes fast when I use the keyboard.04:52

tgm4883_laptopstrange04:54
tgm4883_laptoplirc issue then i guess04:54
bronsonsounds like it.04:54
bronsonGuess I'll have to fiddle with it more.04:54
bronsonIt appears to be a bad interaction between Mythtv and LIRC.05:05
bronsonMaybe my remote is hitting Myth with too many consecutive keypresses?05:06
bronsontoo quickly?05:06
tgm4883_laptopbronson: where did you get your lircrc from?05:06
bronsonI'm pretty sure I had Mythbuntu generate it.05:09

tgm4883_laptopdid you edit this by hand at all?05:15
bronsonI just added the Back entry at the very end.05:16
tgm4883_laptopI really doubt this is the problem, but you might need an extra blank line at the end of the file05:18
tgm4883_laptoplooks fine though05:18
tgm4883_laptopsome things are picky about those end lines being blank05:18

bronsonHow do I skip commercials?  My Myth-generated lirc file doesn't provide an End key.06:14
bronson(assuming the flagging went OK, which it normally doesn't)06:15
tgm4883_laptopbronson: the skip button?06:15
foxbunturight arrow skips forward 30 secs06:15
foxbuntuor the skip button06:15
foxbuntuor FFWD06:15
bronsonhaha, right.06:15
bronsonbut, "The End or Z key (by default) jump to the next commercial break marker."06:16
bronsonI guess you guys don't bother with comm flagging?06:16
foxbuntubronson, skip on the remote usually is mapped to Z06:16
foxbuntu is what I was trying to explain06:16
bronsonoh, that makes sense.06:17
foxbuntutgm4883_laptop, wth??! you add a perm ban?06:17

foxbuntudepends on the the remote...I have no idea what remote you have and how it was treated by my mappings06:18
bronsonMCEUSB2, mythbuntu-provided mappings06:18
foxbuntuwell then on the remote, use the skip buttons, like the DVD chapter skip buttons06:19
foxbuntubronson, I say my mappings because I wrote the dictionary that generates the auto generated mappings06:20

MythbuntuGuest57tgm4883_laptop: I need advice for setting up my playback profile pls06:25
foxbuntuMythbuntuGuest57, you will need to provide specs and setup of your machine to make any suggestions for that06:25
bronsonfoxbuntu, well, thanks for the bindings.  :)06:25
foxbuntubronson, no problem, I always hated  setting that up by hand ;)06:26
tgm4883_laptopfoxbuntu: yep06:26
tgm4883_laptoplet me restart06:26
bronsonIs there any way to get an overview of where Mythtv found the commercial breaks?06:26
foxbuntubronson, nope06:26
MythbuntuGuest57foxbuntu: system specs: geniune intel : cpu family: 15.. Intel Celeron CPU 3.06 GHZ, cache 256 kb, fpu: yes, fpu extn: yes, cpuid leve 506:27
MythbuntuGuest57ATI pro 256 AGP card tv out06:27
MythbuntuGuest571 GB ram06:27
foxbuntuMythbuntuGuest57, is it a frontend/backend system?06:27
MythbuntuGuest57its a back + front end primary system06:28
foxbuntuMythbuntuGuest57, are you using Open Source or Closed Source Video Drivers?06:28
MythbuntuGuest57I used ATI setip with hardy guide to do it06:29
foxbuntuMythbuntuGuest57, pretty safe to say, you need to use the CPU-- / Slim playback profile06:29
foxbuntualso, Setup the Guide to use the ECO (Low CPU) profile06:29
foxbuntuset Userjobs in the Backend Setup to use Low CPU and no more than 2 jobs at a time06:30
MythbuntuGuest57I changed Current video playback profile to Slim06:30
foxbuntuUse MCC to enable the MySQL Tweaks, Daily Defrag, and Daily DB Optimization06:30
MythbuntuGuest57rest I donno what to do06:30
foxbuntuat the menu level you found the Playback profile there is a Menu "Program Guide" I think the first page has the setting for the Guide Style06:31
foxbuntuSet that to ECO06:31
foxbuntuExit the frontend and run MythTV Backend Setup from the mneu --or-- run mythtv-setup from the terminal06:32
MythbuntuGuest57ok06:32
foxbuntuIn gernal settings in the backend you can change the user jobs settings as I previously mentioned06:32
foxbuntufrom the Frontend in Setup > Setup  > Mythbuntu you will open MCC (mythbuntu-control-centre) In advanced options you will find the settings I previously mentioned06:33
MythbuntuGuest57I did that06:35
MythbuntuGuest57still video playback is choppy06:35

bronsonI get this from my frontend: lcddevice: received bad no. of arguments in CONNECTED response from LCDServer07:26
bronsonQuestion for you guys and your working mceusb2 remotes...07:28
bronsonWhen you run irw and hold a button down, does the count increase monotonically?07:28
bronsonMine keeps restarting.07:28
bronson0,0,1,2,0,1,0,0,1,2,3,0 etc.07:29

mdkaneda55anyone in here know about the DViCO FusionHDTV 5 RT Gold MCE Remote? seems to be "working" without lircd, only up, down, left, right, and #'s.. the "start" key is mapped to "enter" and thats it... since lirc isn't controlling it, changing lircd doesn't let  me map it correctly.. whats goin on?10:03
mdkaneda55i'll keep looking around the web for info.. but its the dvico MCE remote w/ the 2.5mm plug receiver (plugs into the adapter plugged into the card, not the USB one that mythbuntu has preset options for)10:10
mdkaneda55just confusing that it's not working in lirc but somehow is mapped for keys.. just not the right ones (and not all of 'em)..10:12
neopsychehi .. is it possible to use myth tv for a tv schedule for playout of content for TV station?11:48
mdkaneda55exit11:55
laganeopsyche: do you want scheduled playback=12:01
neopsycheYes Please ! :-D12:02
neopsyche(with a gui preferably.)12:02
laganeopsyche: i wouldn't use mythtv for that. it's a DVR app ;)12:02
neopsycheyes i know12:02
neopsycheany other ideas?12:02
lagai'd probably use mplayer.. or kaffeine with a playlist or something like that12:02
neopsycheI want to use VLC.. but need to figure out how to setup a schedule of files to play for 7 days at a time .. at specific times.12:05

jphillipHD tuner on woot today, not sure about support13:48

* jphillip adds note that piping help didn't work15:51
gregLjphillip, just trying to get audio from my hdpvr...I can cat it and the video is great but no audio...15:53
jphillipIIRC there is a hidden aac option when compiling mythtv, and I believe it is on in mythbuntu (for the weekly builds at least)15:54
lagagregL: i think iamlindoro or directhex know something about that15:55
gregLlaga: Yes iamlindoro is most likly the person to talk to about it...thanks15:56
lagaalso, if you can figure out a viable fix for intrepid (if needed), it'd be much appreciated15:57
lagafiguring out workarounds are no good if none of it ends up in the bug tracker ;)15:57
gregLI downloaded intrepid 2 times and both times i couldn't get it to boot..I even burned it at 1x...15:58
jphillipgregL there are some problems with the current discs16:02
bronsonCan anyone with a remote (preferably mceusb2) run IRW and tell me what it gives you when you hold down a button?16:02
bronsonDoes the second column just count upward monotonically?16:03
gregLjphillip, ah ok didn't know that.thanks16:03
bronsonMine restarts after 1-3, never makes it past 6.16:03
bronsonwondering if that's why pushing a button on the remote brings Myth to its knees...16:03
tgm4883_laptopbronson, mine counts up in hex16:05
bronsonya, mine too.16:06
bronsontgm4883_laptop, yours counts upward as long as you hold down the button?16:07
jphillipthat all depends on your remote/receiver I think16:07
tgm4883_laptopyep16:07
jphillipI believe my MCE will count up to 6 or so, but my faked hauppauge setup only ever hits 2 (and kinda runs like crap)16:07
jphillipmainly cause the phillips universal remote doesn't repeat well and is slow16:08
tgm4883_laptopI finally stoped it when it reached 3e16:08
bronsonwell, that's good to know.16:08
bronsontgm4883_laptop, what remote do you have?16:08
tgm4883_laptopmceusb216:09
bronsonMaybe this Keyspan is a piece o crap.16:09
bronsonMine is mceusb2 too.16:09
jphillipthere are different mceusb2's16:09
jphillipby different manufacturers and so on16:09
bronsonjphillip, yours doesn't count very high either?  Does it drive Myth OK?16:09
bronsonWhen I push a button (say volup), Myth stutters and chokes for 1/2sec to a second.16:10
jphillipbronson I'm going off of memory not there right now16:10
bronsonWhen I push it on the keyboard, everything works as it should.16:10
jphillipthere are some settings in the lirc config that have to do with repeating buttons and so on, perhaps you can irrecord a new config and see if that helps16:11
bronsontgm4883_laptop, what brand/model do you have?16:11
bronsonjphillip, tried that.16:11
bronsonirrecord config was even a little worse!16:11
bronsonAlso monkeyed with repeat and gap.16:11
jphillipodds are its the remote and how often it sends then16:11

MythbuntuGuest99need advice on playback settings pls17:41
superm1!ask17:44
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.17:44
superm1!hi | MythbuntuGuest9917:44
ZinnMythbuntuGuest99: Hi $nick, how are you?  Something we can help you with today?17:44
MythbuntuGuest99hi.. yes i need advice with my playback settings17:46
MythbuntuGuest99it freezes17:46
MythbuntuGuest99when i open the saved .mpg file with VLC it plays well17:46
superm1generally try changing the playback settings to be in the "slim" profile17:48
superm1and you may have some more luck17:48
superm1the default profile is too much for a lot of systems17:48
MythbuntuGuest99I did changeto slim it did not help17:49
MythbuntuGuest99CPU -- did not help17:49
superm1are these HD recordings?17:49
MythbuntuGuest99no just SD17:49
superm1are you on the proprietary graphics driver for your card?17:51
MythbuntuGuest99yes, I have the ATI driver17:51
superm1ah okay.  well the next thing you can try then is updating to the latest version of that driver (there is a newer one than the one in the repos)17:52
superm1you can grab it from AMD's website and build it using ./driver-name --buildandinstallpkg17:52
MythbuntuGuest99I just installed the driver17:53
superm1clarify that statement, and rebooted i presume?17:53
MythbuntuGuest99yes.. when I play the same video using VLC player or any divx with VLC player i plays fine17:54
superm1right, I understand that.  so when it's freezing in myth does your system freeze hard, or just skip a bunch?17:54
MythbuntuGuest99just the tv displ freezes .. if I press 'Esc' key it comes back to mythtv menu17:55
superm1okay so not a hard system freeze17:59
MythbuntuGuest99yes not a hard system freeze17:59
superm1if you try running mythfrontend from a terminal, you might get some more useful debugging information in that terminal17:59
MythbuntuGuest99how do I do that17:59
superm1close mythfrontend, click the applications menu and pick terminal18:00
superm1type18:00
superm1mythfrontend18:00
superm1and then try to use the app18:00
superm1when it freezes up, alt-tab over and look for some hopefully more useful information18:01
superm1you can put that info ina pastebin18:01
