| fiyawerx | Anyone proficient in mythstream? Had two issues, one is that I can't seem to get the shoutcast parser working (always returns no urls for genres) and two.. was wondering if anyone has thought of trying to set up a torrent parser to pipe to a custom command with a cli torrent program | 00:45 |
| tgm4883_laptop | fiyawerx, the shoutcast parser needs updated | 01:37 |

| tgm4883_laptop | !mythstream parsers | fiyawerx | 01:38 |
| Zinn | fiyawerx: Updated parsers for Mythstream are available for 8.10 and 8.04 in the mythbuntu-testing ppa. They are in separate parser packages named mythstream-parser-* | 01:38 |
| tgm4883_laptop | you will probably have to delete the parsers directory at ~/.mythtv/mythstream/parsers | 01:38 |
| fiyawerx | tgm4883_laptop: thanks | 02:22 |
| balz | is it possible to connect the composite-in of a PVR 150 to make a game console accessible through the myth interface? | 05:08 |
| tgm4883_laptop | balz, no | 05:09 |
| tgm4883_laptop | I mean, it is possible, but you won't be able to play it | 05:09 |
| balz | tgm4883 ... i may cry | 05:10 |
| balz | haha oh well | 05:10 |
| tgm4883_laptop | well the lag is the issue | 05:10 |
| tgm4883_laptop | so unless you have your spidey sense working | 05:10 |
| balz | haha | 05:10 |
| tgm4883_laptop | there is going to be about a 4 second lag | 05:10 |
| balz | really? you can't just have the raw input go through to the tv and not have it lag? | 05:11 |
| balz | oh well i guess it has to go through that pesky mpeg2 encoder | 05:11 |
| tgm4883_laptop | yes, and with mythtv everything is recorded to the drive | 05:11 |
| balz | aah too bad | 05:12 |
| balz | i have another question | 05:12 |
| balz | i have one of the newer MCE pvr150's... and you can't capture IR codes with it. at least not in the traditional way where you hold down remote buttons and whatnot | 05:13 |
| balz | would it still be possible to capture the codes with lirc and then maybe use the IR blaster to control external hardware? | 05:13 |
| tgm4883_laptop | balz, what are you going to capture the codes with? | 05:20 |
| balz | i was thinking the MCE remote's USB reciever? | 05:21 |
| balz | maybe i'm not being too clear. I dunno if tihs is possible, but the idea was to point another remote at the reciever attached to my mythbox, record that signal, and then spit it back out with the IR blaster | 05:21 |
| tgm4883_laptop | that should be totally doable | 05:22 |
| tgm4883_laptop | I was confused because I thought you didn't have a receiver to record with | 05:22 |
| balz | oh right. lol no i do | 05:22 |
| balz | i use one of the new phillips MCE remotes taht comes with the pvr150 | 05:22 |
| balz | so where should i start for this? i just selected the appropriate remote at installation, so i'm not sure how any of this works | 05:23 |
| === tgm4883_laptop is now known as mini-jono | ||
| === mini-jono is now known as tgm4883_laptop | ||
| balz | in fact i'm not even sure that lircd.conf exists on this system... | 05:24 |
| tgm4883_laptop | balz, you probably need to bust out the irrecord and do it that way. Depending on the device you are trying to control, there may already be the file out on the net | 05:49 |
| dsbw | OK, so, if I'm stuck at initramfs, what can I do? Will using the alternate install CD help, perhaps? Or do I just need to chuck this mobo and try again? | 06:30 |

| bronson | Is anyone else having audio problems in Intrepid? | 16:27 |
| bronson | After about 6 hours, audio just stops working and I see a crash message about console-kit-daemon. | 16:27 |
| bronson | I need to log out and log back in to fix it. | 16:27 |
| bronson | Pretty annoying. | 16:27 |
| Shadow__X | hello everyone | 17:05 |
| bronson | logging out to fix audio... | 17:05 |
| Shadow__X | i tried to transfer over my mythtv recordings and brought the restore.sql over but that didnt really work | 17:06 |
| Shadow__X | can someone help me | 17:06 |
| Shadow__X | the recordings are coming up as non seekabke | 17:06 |
| Shadow__X | and mythweb doesnt have thumbnails for them | 17:19 |
| tgm4883_laptop | Shadow__X, how did you backup you db? | 17:23 |
| Shadow__X | http://www.mythtv.org/docs/mythtv-HOWTO-23.html#ss23.7 | 17:24 |
| Shadow__X | i transfered all the recordings to /var/lib/mythtv/recordings then after that i did the mysql command | 17:24 |
| Shadow__X | and i can watch recordings but i cant seek on them or see them in mythweb | 17:25 |
| Shadow__X | and idea tgm4883_laptop | 17:28 |
| tgm4883_laptop | looking | 17:29 |
| Shadow__X | k | 17:29 |
| Shadow__X | thanks | 17:29 |
| tgm4883_laptop | I'm wondering if you have commflagging either | 17:31 |
| Von_Nueman | I'm new to the HD/mythbuntu world and cannot get my pcHDTV HD5500 to see any channels on a known good cable connection? Where do I start? | 17:31 |
| Shadow__X | tgm4883_laptop, no nothing works other than going in the fe and just watching the recording | 17:34 |
| Shadow__X | it says its non seekabke | 17:34 |
| Shadow__X | seekable | 17:34 |
| tgm4883_laptop | Shadow__X, sec | 17:34 |
| Shadow__X | k | 17:35 |
| Shadow__X | thanks | 17:35 |
| Shadow__X | Von_Nueman, is this on atsc or qam | 17:35 |
| Shadow__X | and where are you | 17:35 |
| tgm4883_laptop | Shadow__X, I'd try re-commflagging everything | 17:36 |
| Shadow__X | how do i do that | 17:36 |
| tgm4883_laptop | that should rebuild your seektable and comm flags | 17:36 |
| jphillip | I've seen this happen before but I forgets how I fixed it | 17:36 |
| tgm4883_laptop | sec | 17:36 |
| jphillip | only with individual recordings I was junking with though | 17:37 |
| tgm4883_laptop | mythcommflag --all | 17:37 |
| tgm4883_laptop | this will probably take some time to run | 17:37 |
| Shadow__X | will that give me the previews as well in mythweb | 17:37 |
| Von_Nueman | I would assume qam I have it connected to comcast cable | 17:37 |
| tgm4883_laptop | depending on the number of recordings you have | 17:37 |
| Shadow__X | Von_Nueman, the thing with qam is it could be here now then not be there | 17:37 |
| Shadow__X | is that your only qam tuner | 17:38 |
| Shadow__X | ok thanks tgm4883_laptop | 17:38 |
| tgm4883_laptop | Shadow__X, I think so, I believe those are generated by seeking in a few seconds into the recording | 17:38 |
| tgm4883_laptop | so no seektable, no pic | 17:38 |
| jphillip | might be a good idea to try it on a single recording first | 17:38 |
| Von_Nueman | correct, I have just the one HD tuner, I also have a pvr-150 | 17:38 |
| jphillip | make sure it works before you eat all that cpu | 17:38 |
| tgm4883_laptop | Shadow__X, true | 17:38 |
| Shadow__X | right makes sense | 17:38 |
| tgm4883_laptop | do that first | 17:38 |
| tgm4883_laptop | but | 17:38 |
| tgm4883_laptop | yea, do it on a single one first | 17:38 |
| tgm4883_laptop | you might be able to set it to comm flagg from mythweb | 17:39 |
| Shadow__X | yeah i did | 17:39 |
| Von_Nueman | should I be able to use atsc? | 17:39 |
| Shadow__X | i put one lets see if it works | 17:39 |
| tgm4883_laptop | would save you from having to figure out which is which | 17:39 |
| Shadow__X | Von_Nueman, i have comcast and qam works but it all depends i would try scanning in myth backend using quam 256 and see if you get something | 17:40 |
| Shadow__X | yeah true tgm4883_laptop | 17:40 |
| tgm4883_laptop | Von_Nueman, yes, try scanning on all the frequencies | 17:40 |
| tgm4883_laptop | I haven't scanned with my HD5500 since I moved :( | 17:40 |
| tgm4883_laptop | no comcast here :( | 17:40 |
| Von_Nueman | Is there any sense in getting the channels from SD? | 17:41 |
| Von_Nueman | schedules direct? | 17:41 |
| Shadow__X | Von_Nueman, in qam you use schedules direct for the listing info not the channels | 17:41 |
| Shadow__X | thats only for analog | 17:41 |
| Von_Nueman | gotcha, the Retrive Channel Line up in the setup didn't seem to work anyhow. | 17:42 |
| Shadow__X | :) | 17:42 |
| Shadow__X | digital is different | 17:43 |
| tgm4883_laptop | wait, what? | 17:44 |
| tgm4883_laptop | <Shadow__X> Von_Nueman, in qam you use schedules direct for the listing info not the channels | 17:44 |
| tgm4883_laptop | <Shadow__X> thats only for analog | 17:44 |
| tgm4883_laptop | ^^? | 17:45 |
| Von_Nueman | thanks I'll give that a try later tonight, silly work ARHHHH..... | 17:45 |
| Shadow__X | tgm4883_laptop, getting channels from schedules direct is only for analog | 17:46 |
| Shadow__X | qam you have to scan and use sched for listing info | 17:46 |
| tgm4883_laptop | ah I get that sentence now | 17:46 |
| tgm4883_laptop | It looked like you were saying that SD was only for analog | 17:47 |
| Shadow__X | lol | 17:47 |
| Shadow__X | ah | 17:47 |
| Shadow__X | so tgm4883_laptop that didnt work | 17:48 |
| tgm4883_laptop | hmm | 17:48 |
| tgm4883_laptop | is this 8.04? | 17:48 |
| Shadow__X | 8.04.1 | 17:50 |
| tgm4883_laptop | Shadow__X, how long was the recording? That appears to have finished quite fast | 17:50 |
| Shadow__X | one was 30 min | 17:50 |
| tgm4883_laptop | ok | 17:51 |
| tgm4883_laptop | can you pastebin both the frontend and backend log files | 17:51 |

| Shadow__X | sorry about that | 17:58 |
| zabbadapp | must a remote frontend be updated if the backend is? only if protocol changes happen I guess, how often is that? The ubuntu repos don't seem to be so quick in bringing out new versions .. | 18:36 |
| zabbadapp | (if the the mythbuntu weekly builds reps isn't used) | 18:37 |
| superm1 | there hasn't been a protocol bump in a long time | 18:38 |
| superm1 | or a "new" version in a while either | 18:38 |
| zabbadapp | superm1: btw, I have problems installing a mythbuntu frontend ... 8.04 from an usb stick ... if I start as live-cd, I can't get the frontend to start .. I can do the settings for the BE-host and remote and so on, but nothing happens when i click "start session" | 18:40 |
| superm1 | zabbadapp, well once you configure it, you can try to launch from a terminal to debug | 18:41 |
| zabbadapp | same if I try to do an frontend client install .. I end up on the live-cd desktop, telling me to click "install" to install (same thing happen all over if i install a second time that way) | 18:41 |
| zabbadapp | ok, so mythfrontend from a terminal? | 18:41 |
| superm1 | sounds like the installer is silently crashing? | 18:42 |
| superm1 | do you have data in /var/log/syslog or /var/log/installer/debug that is informative when the install fails? | 18:42 |
| zabbadapp | i can restart the whole thing and see | 18:42 |
| zabbadapp | on a related note: the settings that can be saved, will they persist if I select to save it on the same live-usb? Or would it be possible to have a unionfs on the live-usb to have some further adaptions done persist on the live-stick? | 18:46 |
| zabbadapp | (like having the prescaling of images only happen once because they could be saved on the usb.) | 18:58 |
| zabbadapp | superm1: i could start mythfe from the terminal, but it can't connect to BE. | 19:00 |
| superm1 | zabbadapp, were you able to test inside the UI? | 19:02 |
| superm1 | to see if mysql worked? | 19:02 |
| zabbadapp | connection was tested ok. The settings from the gui, how does the FE use it? | 19:04 |
| superm1 | okay well that means that half the connection works | 19:09 |
| zabbadapp | (The hardware is ok, I installed a complete mythtbuntu from this usb-stick on the same computer a few days ago, just to get an OS and to try XBMC on ... xbmc's myth-integration was still rather lacking and no FE replacement. So now I want just a real myth-FE) | 19:09 |
| superm1 | make sure your backend is set to be listening on the proper IP address | 19:09 |
| superm1 | in mythtv-setup | 19:09 |
| zabbadapp | ahh!! right, the BE is 127.0.0.1 !! :-( | 19:10 |
| superm1 | now it probably would have been useful to have such a warning in the GUI tool... | 19:10 |
| superm1 | if you are feeling like writing a patch, it wouldn't be turned away.... | 19:10 |
| zabbadapp | Damn, the BE is recording, but if i simply do an ssh tunnel to the BE and forward the ports .. then I can connect the FE to localhost | 19:11 |
| zabbadapp | superm1: yay!! it works! so, does things i write do disk stay on the usb? that ssh-tunnel was nice, would make the usb-stick work from any computer in the world :-D ... it would be nice to be able to save an ssh-key and do the connection on startup from .bashrc or something | 19:22 |
| superm1 | zabbadapp, it's a bit limited on what settings get saved. it's not set up as a "persistent" stick, but instead settings get started from mythbuntu-live-autostart | 19:23 |
| zabbadapp | ah, so I can modify things in that directory (not while running "live", but when mounted as a plain old disk on my i.e. desktop) to have personal things execut on startup? | 19:25 |
| superm1 | well yesish | 19:25 |
| zabbadapp | interesting!!! | 19:26 |
| superm1 | the things it can launch probably won't allow random scripts )Yet( | 19:26 |
| superm1 | you'll have to play with it and see | 19:26 |
| superm1 | if you come up with something that you want to see in mythbuntu-live-autostart though within the next 2 weeks or so, it can be squeezed into 8.10 | 19:27 |
| zabbadapp | i understand ... this could become the ultimate easy way to setup FE's ... i'm gonna play with it and see | 19:27 |
| zabbadapp | superm1: hmm, the preview playback of recorded shows works on the usb-FE, but actual fullscreen playback fail with "invalid file when opening "/var/lib/mythtv/recordings" in the terminal windows FE output ... is there a setting to make playback stream over the 6543/6544-ports like the thumbnails do? (i have not mounted any filesystem from the BE on this FE) | 19:34 |
| superm1 | it's because you probably are in a different timezone than the default | 19:40 |
| superm1 | you might have to update your time zone | 19:40 |
| superm1 | (try to keep a list of these little gotchas you are running into so you can file bugs on them) | 19:40 |
| zabbadapp | timezone? i don't see how that could interfere with playback? can you quickly explain? | 19:43 |
| * jphillip broke amazon | 19:45 | |
| superm1 | zabbadapp, just trust me, i've seen this happen | 20:07 |
| zabbadapp | i found a setting in the FE, "always stream recordings from the backend", which sounded exactly like what I needed ... but then I get an FE-log error: "NVP::OpenFile(): Error, couldn't read file: myth://127.0.0.1:6543/" | 20:08 |
| zabbadapp | but ok, i'll try to get the tz right ... | 20:09 |
| zabbadapp | (the preview thumbnails are still playing ok like before though) | 20:11 |
| zabbadapp | superm1: timezone and date/time correct, but still the same error ... FE-log says: "NVP::OpenFile(): Error, couldn't read file: myth://127.0.0.1:6543/" ... (if this went well, there should be some kind of recording filename included in the myth:// string) ... and BE-log says: "RemoteFile::openSocket(control socket): Could not connect to server "" @ port -1" .... | 20:46 |
| zabbadapp | (also if the BE has its 192.168.x.x IP and I do not use ssh-tunnels) | 20:52 |
| tomjones | hey everyone i just got myth running with pvr-350 tv-out. the only snag is that the OSD is off center so much that it wraps around the screen. is there a way to shift the OSD left and right? | 21:02 |
| zabbadapp | superm1: wtf, I was so sure that playback of recordings and playback of live-tv was done in the same way I never bothered to try live-tv since recordings didn't work ... BUT live-tv does actually play back fine! Now i'm confused... | 21:06 |
| tomjones | zabbadapp: check to see if your recording directory is set up properly. if the recordings can find a path theyll fail out and live-tv uses a different directory sometimes | 21:07 |
| superm1 | zabbadapp, that's why it sounds like a timezone problem. recordings have the time injected in the filename, and when it gets invalid filenames via OpenFile() errors can crop up | 21:11 |
| zabbadapp | I think you are correct, my tz was off after all ... cat /etc/timezone was still "chicago" even if I hade run tzselect and selected Europe/Stockholm ... now that I edited it by hand, date still show UTC rather than CEST .. once I work around that, I actually think it will work | 21:32 |
| Shadow__X | can someone help me with my transferring of recordings issue | 21:35 |
| jphillip | Shadow__X perhaps someone can if you mention the issue | 21:36 |
| Shadow__X | i followed the guide to transfer recordings to new hardware on the mythtv site | 21:40 |
| Shadow__X | i backed up the info out of the database towards the recordings | 21:40 |
| Shadow__X | then i put all the recordings on the new hardware | 21:40 |
| Shadow__X | updated the table using the backup sql file | 21:40 |
| Shadow__X | and now mythweb sees my recordings and so does the fe | 21:41 |
| Shadow__X | but | 21:41 |
| Shadow__X | the recordings arent seekable in the fe and no thumbnails in mythweb | 21:41 |
| jphillip | did rerunning mythcommflag on them help? | 21:42 |
| jphillip | on the one you were going to try it on | 21:42 |
| Shadow__X | i tried it on 3 recordings | 21:42 |
| Shadow__X | it flagged the commercials | 21:42 |
| Shadow__X | and did noething else | 21:42 |
| jphillip | Shadow__X http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Repairing_the_Seektable | 21:43 |
| Shadow__X | optimize mythdb doesnt run | 21:49 |
| jphillip | did you try mythcommflag with the rebuild option like it says there? | 21:53 |
| Shadow__X | yeah | 21:53 |
| jphillip | are you 8.04? | 21:53 |
| Shadow__X | yeah | 21:53 |
| Shadow__X | i will rebuild everything | 21:54 |
| jphillip | /usr/share/doc/mythtv-backend/contrib/optimize_mythdb.pl | 21:54 |
| jphillip | chmod +x that, and then run it | 21:54 |
| Shadow__X | hmm | 21:57 |
| Shadow__X | it ran | 21:57 |
| Shadow__X | but i ran that after rebuilding using commflag | 21:58 |
| Shadow__X | i am currently rebuilding all the recordings | 21:58 |
| Shadow__X | then after that i will run the optimize again | 21:58 |
| Shadow__X | i should of known i had to chmod it | 21:58 |
| Shadow__X | thanks | 21:58 |
| Shadow__X | hopefully this fixes it | 21:58 |
| jphillip | you should optimize fire | 22:00 |
| jphillip | first, then rebuild the seek tables | 22:00 |
| Shadow__X | hmm | 22:00 |
| Shadow__X | how do i stop the queue | 22:00 |
| jphillip | if the table is shot rebuilding them wont do much good | 22:00 |
| Shadow__X | how to i stop the jobs from running | 22:00 |
| jphillip | you can cancel in the info section on your front end, my systems like to ignore that though | 22:00 |
| Shadow__X | is there an easier way i have around 400 recordings | 22:03 |
| jphillip | Shadow__X not that I know of, check the wiki/mailing list/documentation | 22:05 |
| Shadow__X | i cant run mythtranscode because its complaining about the channel id | 22:15 |
| jphillip | Shadow__X sounds like your db backup is junked up | 22:27 |
| jphillip | like it doesn't have all the data it should have | 22:27 |
| Shadow__X | or i have a different channel linup and i only preserved the recording info | 22:28 |
| Shadow__X | jphillip, what is /var/www/mythweb/data/cache linked too | 22:31 |
| massabuntu | how can i resize the font of the mplayer subtitle in mythvideo?? | 23:40 |
| === superm1 is now known as superm1|away | ||
| Shadow__X | so tgm4883_laptop any ideas | 23:57 |
| Shadow__X | still not seekable | 23:57 |
