[00:00] <hads> NFS/SSH/CIFS/whatever
[00:00] <hanfm> ok ill try ;-)
[00:01] <directhex> uploading gigs via a web browser = pain
[00:01] <directhex> trust me
[00:02] <hanfm> thanks, i did it in some way on another configuration but i dont know how i did
[00:02] <hanfm> why?
[00:02] <directhex> http forms are not designed for it
[00:02] <hads> It just is.
[00:03] <hanfm> isnt there any plugin?
[00:03] <hads> Nothing in the chain is designed for it.
[00:03] <hanfm> okok
[00:03] <hanfm> i think ftp would work fine
[00:03] <hads> Well yeah, that's not HTTP though :)
[00:04] <tgm4883_laptop> yea notice how the f is different than the ht
[00:04] <hanfm> but i think an aditional ftp-daemon is not useful
[00:05] <hanfm> or does it need so much sources as samba?
[00:05] <hanfm> nt so much sourcfes as samba
[00:06] <hanfm> because i want to keep the stress low
[00:07] <jsringst> Helpl :)   Somehow my disk ran out of space... didn
[00:07] <hanfm> my cpu is celeron 866 -.-
[00:07] <jsringst> err
[00:08] <hads> Yeah, it'll do that.
[00:08] <jsringst> Helpl :)   Somehow my disk ran out of space... didn't realize it, shutddown system. Then today I boot it up and can't connect to frontend... try mythfilldatabase and says no database link defined.   How do I repair my broken database/link and get the frontend up and running again?
[00:09] <hads> Your database is probably broken. You may be able to repair it.
[00:10] <hads> You will need the username and password from /etc/mythtv/mysql.txt
[00:10] <jsringst> yeah checked that and all the fields were empty
[00:11] <hads> You checked "that" and "all the fields" were empty?
[00:11] <jsringst> DBUserName, DBPassword, DBName, DBType
[00:12] <hads> Well that sounds odd.
[00:13] <hads> Check the mythtv logs to see what they say.
[00:13] <jsringst> where are those located?
[00:13] <hads> !logs
[00:13] <Zinn> MythTV logs are stored in /var/log/mythtv/
[00:14] <squish102> what is the ati tool to set video settings?

[00:32] <tgm4883_laptop> is your disk still full?
[00:48] <hanfm1> how can i change the brightness level?
[00:48] <hanfm1> and gamma
[00:51] <squish102> why can i not select the amdCCCLE in the control center? i have an onboard amd gfx card
[00:57] <jsringst> no its not still full I cleaned up a couple gigs
[01:02] <foxbuntu> squish102, if the button is greyed out its not installed
[01:04] <foxbuntu> squish102, sudo apt-get install fglrx-amdcccle
[01:06] <squish102> thanks foxbuntu
[01:27] <hads> jsringst: Yeah, I'd imagine your database is corrupt.
[02:52] <squish102> any1 have an ATi Radeon HD 3200 gfx card working with myth?
[03:10] <jsringst> so how to you fix a corrupt database?
[03:19] <foxbuntu> jsringst, a repair on the tables should take care of it is it is in fact corrupted
[03:19] <jsringst> how can I go about doing that?
[03:20] <foxbuntu> jsringst, http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/repair.html
[03:25] <jsringst> where are the mythtv sql files located to use that repair util on?
[03:56] <squish102> on mythbuntu, during booting, how do i see what is all loading?
[03:56] <squish102> like the [ok] or [fail]
[04:14] <hads> squish102: In grub edit the boot line to remove the splash
[04:15] <squish102> thanks

[04:23] <hads> Yup
[04:23] <tritium> Hello.  Due to adding and later deleting some capture cards, mythtv-status and mythweb report that I have tuners 1, 2, and 6.  Is there a way to renumber tuner 6 to 3?  Perhaps by editing the card id in a mysql database?
[04:24] <hads> tritium: Don't worry about it it's just a unique id.
[04:24] <tritium> hads: it is exceedingly annoying
[04:24] <hads> heh
[04:24] <rhpot1991> tritium: I think you can edit the ID in the db, don't quote me on it though
[04:24] <rhpot1991> just double check that other tables aren't referencing it
[04:24] <tritium> hads: I know, I'm anal about that kind of thing...
[04:24] <hads> You could update it but since mysql doens't support foriegn keys you'll need to do it in each table that references it.
[04:24] <tritium> That sounds non-trivial.
[04:25] <hads> There's probably not that many tables but you'll need to figure it out by yourself.
[04:25] <tritium> OK, thank you.
[04:25] <hads> If you can delete all the cards and start again then you could do it too.
[04:26] <hads> A TRUNCATE in mysql will reset the auto increment.
[04:26] <tritium> That wouldn't be too bad...
[04:26] <hads> (from memory)
[04:26] <hads> Not somethin that I've tried but the process should be, delete cards through mythtc-setup, go into mysql issue a TRUNCATE and then re-add cards in mythtv-setup.
[04:27] <tritium> Hmm, I'm a mysql novice, though.
[04:27] <hads> Not difficult, just a `TRUNCATE TABLE foo` from the mysql prompt.
[04:28] <tritium> hmm, ok, I'll look into it.  Thank you so much!
[04:28] <hads> Beware that doing things in the database may snap your setup in halk though.
[04:28] <hads> s/halk/half/
[04:28] <tritium> Yeah, perhaps I'll use the intrepid release as an excuse to reinstall.
[04:28] <tritium> (and not touch the db)
[04:29] <tritium> Thanks, hads and rhpot1991!  :)

[06:16] <rgvguplb> hi... how does one watch live tv using mythbuntu? i see only snow...using mythbuntu with a pvr-350 card
[06:17] <rgvguplb> how do i change the channel?
[06:22] <rhpot1991> rgvguplb: sounds like maybe you didn't setup the correct input or something
[06:22] <rhpot1991> that or your cable connection isn't working
[06:23] <rgvguplb> well, i don't know anything about mythtv... this is the first time i've tried it...
[06:24] <rgvguplb> i just attached the cable into a three way splitter... one now goes to my regular tv, one to my cable modem, and the other to my computer... is that how it's supposed to be wired?
[06:25] <rgvguplb> the remote seems to be working, but slowly... i have the tv guide displayed now and i don't know how to get out of it...
[06:25] <rgvguplb> i hit the back/exit button on the remote but it's not doing anything...
[06:27] <rgvguplb> i also have a dvd in the computer's drive, but don't know how to watch it...
[06:27] <rhpot1991> rgvguplb: try the stop button
[06:28] <rgvguplb> i'll try that as soon as i reboot the pc... it's starting up now...
[06:29] <rhpot1991> as far as dvd's I believe you need mythvideo installed to handle that
[06:29] <rgvguplb> okay, it's rebooted... and the menu is displayed... i choose 'watch tv' and....
[06:29] <rgvguplb> now i see snow...
[06:30] <rgvguplb> i hit the "guide" button andnow i see the tv guide...
[06:30] <rgvguplb> little screen on top right still shows snow though...
[06:31] <rgvguplb> i hit stop on the remote... and now the schedule is gone... and i see lots of snow...
[06:32] <rgvguplb> i actually was able to see a advertisement for a minute, and another time i could see the tv schedule channel from the cable company... that's all i've seen other than snow...
[06:32] <rhpot1991> try changing the channel?
[06:32] <rgvguplb> how does one change a channel?
[06:33] <rhpot1991> hit some numbers then enter, or up and down or channel up and channel down
[06:33] <rhpot1991> do you happen to have a cable box for your cable?
[06:33] <rgvguplb> no cable box
[06:33] <rgvguplb> i hit the arrow (down) and some stuff came up on the bottom part of the screen...
[06:34] <rgvguplb> it shows a channel number, and "seinfeld", as well as some info on the episode...
[06:34] <rgvguplb> then it disappears, and show me a screen full of snow...
[06:35] <rgvguplb> i hit the "ok" button and it says "position saved"...
[06:35] <rgvguplb> i hit it again and then it says "position cleared"
[06:35] <rgvguplb> what is it talking about?
[06:37] <rgvguplb> now i see something...
[06:37] <rgvguplb> it's channel 2.. which is normally the channel guide from the cable company....
[06:37] <rgvguplb> what the heck did i press to do that????
[06:40] <rgvguplb> do i need to press "ok" to change the channel?
[06:43] <rgvguplb> it appears that when i hit the up/down buttons on the remote, and it displays channel 12 at the bottom, and i hit "ok", it shows channel 2 on the screen...
[06:43] <rhpot1991> hit 2 then ok
[06:43] <rhpot1991> it lets you flip around but not change to that channel unless you tell it so
[06:44] <rgvguplb> okay, i tried hitting '2', then ok.... it showed me snow....
[06:44] <rgvguplb> i hit '12' and then hit 'ok', it shows me channel 2....
[06:44] <rhpot1991> unplug that cable and plug it into your tv
[06:44] <rhpot1991> make sure you are getting something on it
[06:44] <rhpot1991> verify you are plugged into the right spot on the card as well
[06:45] <rgvguplb> well, it's coming out of a splitter already, and my daughter is watching tv.... not to mention the other cable is going to my cable modem, and i'm using that too....
[06:45] <rgvguplb> it seems the only channel i can get is channel 2, and the only way i get it is by selecting channel 12....
[06:46] <rhpot1991> double check your settings in mythtv-setup as well
[06:46] <rhpot1991> make sure you have the right input, channels are associated, etc
[06:47] <rgvguplb> i'm getting a good picture on channel 18, but am not sure what channel it really is that's showing....
[06:48] <rgvguplb> okay... i can see what channel it is...
[06:48] <rgvguplb> it's channel 3 showing on channel 18....
[06:48] <rhpot1991> there is an option at a point to specify if you are using broadcast or cable signal
[06:48] <rhpot1991> sounds like that is mixed up
[06:49] <rgvguplb> i guess you must be right....
[06:49] <rgvguplb> i will try to fiddle around with it some more...
[06:49] <rgvguplb> at least, i got something more than snow...
[06:49] <rgvguplb> thanks a lot for the assistance....
[06:49] <rgvguplb> i was really uncertain how to use the remote....
[06:49] <rgvguplb> bye!
[06:51] <rhpot1991> good luck
[16:01] <squish102> how do i get the latest ati catalyst drivers?
[16:03] <squish102> or how do i know what version of driver i have now?
[16:06] <directhex> dpkg -l xorg-driver-fglrx
[16:08] <squish102> thanks
[16:31] <superm1> the latest can be gotten from AMD's website squish102
[16:36] <squish102> superm1 so i should not select 'restricted drivers' to uninstall current drivers, then download and install them direct, no apt-getting anything?
[16:37] <superm1> squish102, well if you want the latest get them from AMD's site
[16:37] <superm1> if you want the ones that shipped with the distro, get them from restricted manager
[16:38] <squish102> the ati HD3200 does not work with the apt-get version :(
[16:47] <bronson> Oh holy cow.
[16:47] <bronson> Mythbuntu won't allow me to install a front-end unless I can connect to the database AT INSTALLATION TIME?
[16:47] <bronson> You've got to be kidding.
[16:49] <bronson> This hoses anyone who needs ndsiwrapper or other obscure drivers.
[18:16] <rhpot1991> bronson: I was under the impression that you can continue even if it fails and clean up later.  Why not just hard wire it till the install is done then modify it later?
[18:26] <superm1> rhpot1991, that functionality was torn since people were breaking things
[18:26] <superm1> the only other option is to put up some kind of warning that it couldnt connect to your backend to set a few things up, but that's less than ideal
[18:34] <rhpot1991> hardwiring seems like the best option then
[18:46] <|dthacker|> I'm trying to log in to schedulesdirect.org.  I'm getting "Error establishing an encrypted connection to schedulesdirect.org. Error code 8048.  Any ideas"
[19:00] <|dthacker|> Hi, I'm not able to get my program listings with mythfilldatabase.   output is here: http://pastebin.com/m4739acc4
[19:17] <superm1> |dthacker|, looks like you're entering the wrong user/pass if anything
[20:31] <ajhtiredwolf> Hey is anyone here good with lirc? Im having some weird problems
[20:35] <destructar> hi all... i'm setting up a front end right now using mythbuntu 8.04. any guides you could direct me to for getting an apple bluetooth keyboard paired with this thing?
[20:36] <destructar> i'm using the first generation bluetooth keyboard and a Broadcom Corp. BCM2033 Bluetooth dongle
[20:36] <destructar> (first gen apple bluetooth keyboard that is)
[21:04] <bronson> sorry, was afk
[21:04] <bronson> rhpot1991, because the Next button is grayed out until it succeeds at connecting to the backend.
[21:04] <ajhtiredwolf> im trying to get lirc to work with mythbuntu, im having a few issues, for some reason there is a big delay before it executes the button i push, and it will freeze for a split second when a button is pushed. Also, totem out of no where stopped working with lirc
[21:05] <bronson> afaict, it's impossible to install a frontend unless you can connect to the backend during the install process.
[21:05] <bronson> Which I think is a bad assumption.
[21:06] <bronson> ajhtiredwolf, do you see the delay in irw?
[21:06] <ajhtiredwolf> bronson, no it doesnt happen with other programs
[21:06] <bronson> well, I get that delay too in Myth.  It's weird.  Sometimes it locks everything up for a few seconds, sometimes it works fine.
[21:06] <ajhtiredwolf> bronson, delay is set to 0 in the in the mythbuntu lirc config file
[21:07] <ajhtiredwolf> bronson, huh, so just a common bug?
[21:07] <bronson> Dunno.  All I can say is that it hasn't bothered me enough for me to spend much time on it.
[21:07] <bronson> Bigger fish to fry right now...
[21:08] <ajhtiredwolf> bronson, its pretty bad on my end, just turning the volume up or down can make it lock up while doing so, so if im turning up the volume say 50 percent, that is about 6 second where it locks up and no video or sound stream
[21:10] <bronson> Ouch.  Well...  if you figure out what it is, I hope you'll report back here.  :)
[21:10] <bronson> Maybe ask on mythtv-users?
[21:10] <ajhtiredwolf> will do, and nooo way hah, i went in there one time and they hate ubuntu users
[21:11] <bronson> So tell them you're using mythdora.  :)
[21:11] <ajhtiredwolf> i got called stupid noob, and useless ubuntu user a little too much
[21:13] <ajhtiredwolf> alright well besides that do you know how to tell mythbunu where to find the music and video files? I have the video and music plugin, but i dont see an option to set directory
[21:13] <bronson> I forget.
[21:14] <bronson> It's some config option somewhere.
[21:14] <bronson> I don't have Myth running right now or I'd look.
[21:15] <ajhtiredwolf> hmm i cant figure totem out, for whatever reason, some times after resetting lirc it works
[21:15] <ajhtiredwolf> some times it stops working
[21:15] <ajhtiredwolf> its bipolar
[21:58] <Redhammer_the_Ol> hello I have question about mythrename -- how do I use it in ubuntu ?
[21:58] <Redhammer_the_Ol> I cannot seem to get it to run
[22:02] <zabbadapp> Redhammer_the_Ol: example: mythrename.pl --link /var/lib/mythtv/tv/by_name/ --format "%T/%y%m%d  %- "
[22:02] <Redhammer_the_Ol> oh let me try that
[22:04] <zabbadapp> Redhammer_the_Ol: will in the directory "by_name" (must exist i think) create folders for each kind of show ... i.e. Simpsons, The Aprentice, and so on ... (thats the %T/ in the string) ... and in each such folder you have your simpsons episodes like this:080925 Del 418 säsong 19 - Lisa gör en dokumentär...mpg  ...
[22:04] <rhpot1991> Redhammer_the_Ol: you might need to chmod +x the script
[22:05] <rhpot1991> it lives in /usr/share/doc/mythtv-backend/contrib/
[22:05] <Redhammer_the_Ol> I presume that /var/lib/mythtv/ should be replaced with where my recordigns are
[22:05] <zabbadapp> Redhammer_the_Ol: Yes!  ... I also have another mythrename with a different format that creates content for a directory I call "by_date" ..
[22:06] <zabbadapp> Redhammer_the_Ol: or no, where you want the generated soft links to be created ... it gets the data from the database .. no need to point out the actual recordings
[22:06] <zabbadapp> Redhammer_the_Ol: (I use the softlink aproach ... --link ... I have never tried any other way)
[22:06] <Redhammer_the_Ol> hmm I am confused
[22:07] <Redhammer_the_Ol> when I run the script
[22:07] <Redhammer_the_Ol> all I get is > symbol
[22:08] <Redhammer_the_Ol> this is what I entered:
[22:08] <Redhammer_the_Ol> mythrename.pl --link /media/data/by-date/ --format "%T/%y%m%d %-
[22:09] <Redhammer_the_Ol> I am missing a "
[22:09] <zabbadapp> hmm, something is missing in the end: should be  --format "%T/%y%m%d  %- "
[22:09] <zabbadapp> hehe, my irc-client transforms some of the % things into nothing :-)
[22:09] <zabbadapp> try this instead: --format "%Y-%m/%d %T %- "
[22:10] <zabbadapp> gahh!! again
[22:10] <frank23> do I need to download a firmware to use the pvr-150 IR blaster in gutsy?
[22:10] <Redhammer_the_Ol> what is the odd symbol mean
[22:11] <zabbadapp> but yes, the string should be ended with a " .. and you can read the help in mythrename about what each %<letter> does .. so you can make your own naming standard
[22:11] <Redhammer_the_Ol> mythrename.pl --help
[22:11] <Redhammer_the_Ol> bash: mythrename.pl: command not found
[22:11] <Redhammer_the_Ol> odly enough that returns an erro
[22:13] <zabbadapp> is it chmod ugo+x  ?  (executable)
[22:13] <Redhammer_the_Ol> mythrename.pl --verbose --format "%c_%Y%m%d%H%i%s"
[22:13] <Redhammer_the_Ol> is similar to what it should look like
[22:14] <zabbadapp> and if you are in the same directory as the script, are you writing "./mythrename.pl"  ?? as executables in the current directory isnt run by default .. you have to specify the file by path (which ./ is the same as current directory)
[22:15] <zabbadapp> yep, that string should do it ... there are many interesting options once you get --help to display
[22:16] <frank23> anybody here uses the ir blaster on pvr-150 in gutsy?
[22:18] <tgm4883_laptop> mikal, ping
[22:18] <Redhammer_the_Ol> oh something is happening this time
[22:19] <Redhammer_the_Ol> thank you now got it to work
[22:33] <weiser> Hey I have an installation on the newest version, it is running on some old hardware but, normaly it is running fine, but every 10 min. it make 5-6 "prebuffering pause". because the mythfrontend goes up in cpu load, have anybody some ideas what it is, and if I can turn it off?
[23:09] <Blaidd> I have a question about recording digital cable without using a set to box.
[23:10] <tritium> Blaidd: is it _unencrypted_ QAM-256?
[23:11] <Blaidd> no, that's the problem, unfortunately.  I know that I can record QAM from my provider for the channels that they don't encrypt, but that's not all of the channels that I get.
[23:11] <Blaidd> Is there anyway to digitally record the "premium" channels that they send?
[23:11] <tritium> Yes, that is a problem.
[23:11] <Blaidd> (that are encrypted of course)
[23:12] <Blaidd> Or am I just wanting too much for this stage of the game :)
[23:12] <tritium> Without an STB?  Not that I'm aware of.  And if there were, I would imagine it would be legally questionable.
[23:13] <Blaidd> And most set top boxes only send out a digital signal through things like firewire right?
[23:13] <tritium> Yes.
[23:13] <Blaidd> I don't mind using the set top boxes, so long as I can get a digital signal, but that doesn't seem to be be possible with the cards I've been looking at..
[23:14] <Blaidd> (get a digital signal to my mtyhbox I mean)
[23:16] <Blaidd> Maybe I can ask a quesiton then tritium?
[23:16] <tgm4883_laptop> you just did
[23:16] <tgm4883_laptop> didn't really give him a choice there did you
[23:17] <Blaidd> Well seeing as how we did answer it would appear that there's always a choice :)
[23:17] <Blaidd> he*
[23:17] <Blaidd> and didn't*
[23:17] <Blaidd> I suffer from a case of difficulty typing
[23:18] <tgm4883_laptop> well you would gather more answers if you did ask your question ;)
[23:19] <tritium> Blaidd: sorry, I had stepped away.
[23:20] <Blaidd> :)  Since I can't get a digital signal to my mythbox, I'm using the Hauppage 500 cards, but I'm getting diagonal lines that are showing up and dark scenes are grainy..
[23:20] <Blaidd> Is that just a function of the analouge input, or is there something else I can do to try and change some settings
[23:21] <Blaidd> no worries tritium..
[23:21] <tritium> Sounds like an analog issue.
[23:21] <Blaidd> damn
[23:22] <Blaidd> oh well.. I guess I"ll have to find some way to cope
[23:22] <Blaidd> Thanks
[23:40] <tritium> I would like to see mythtv implement a liveTV commercial volume adjustment or mute.  I hate how commercials are *so* loud compared to actual programming.
