plagerismAnyone in Canada/Ontario, using a rogers stb via firewire??  I have read some forums that says it works, but to no avail00:22
oobehello i was wondering if anyone knows how i can stop using weekly builds and revert back to the main repo binaries without destroying my database00:32
MythbuntuGuest95hello01:19
MythbuntuGuest95test01:20
MythbuntuGuest95I'm just wondering if i can use a ps3 to watch the recorded content that a mythbackend recorded01:20
tritiumWow, the show titles in mythweb listings and the channel guide are always right, but the descriptions are totally wrong, not corresponding to the shows in that timeslot at all.01:27
tritiume.g., on PBS tonight, Title: "Debates 2008: A Newshour Special Report", and Description: "Elmo Steps In for Super Grover Chris hurries over to Elmo who needs help getting his airplane out of the tree. Just as Chris is about to get a ladder, Super Chicken and her sidekick Robin fly in to help. Super Grover comes crashing in to save the day, too (CC)"01:28
tgm4883_laptopMythbuntuGuest95, i'd guess yes since you can install linux on it right?01:31
directhexthe answer is "yes", if (big if) you have an mpeg capture card of some kind01:40
directhexi.e. dvb or pvr card01:40
hadsDepending on what your DVB broadcast format is of course :)02:04
MythbuntuGuest95why would i need a capture card to just view networked content?02:47
MythbuntuGuest95right now I'm running a DLNA client with a shared drive so the ps3 can play it02:47
MythbuntuGuest95basically want that for the myth recordings02:47
MythbuntuGuest95i tried linux on the ps3 but it was terribly slow since it only has 192megs of ram and 1 available proceesor02:48
MythbuntuGuest95so using the full power of the ps3 with all 7 processors is only availabe with the ps3 frontend02:48
MythbuntuGuest95i'm guessing i could have the mythbox save to a drive that is network shared with my vista box and have the vista software stream it to the ps302:49
hadsThe PS3 will play files from myth's uPnP thingy03:00
oobehello i was wondering if anyone knows how i can stop using weekly builds and revert back to the main repo binaries without destroying my database03:06
oobeif i uninstall mythtv weekly builds packages then install the normal binaries will my database still be intact04:58
rhpot1991_lapto1oobe: it should be the db is persists, but you should do a few things to be safe04:59
rhpot1991_lapto11. backup your database04:59
rhpot1991_lapto12. don't purge the packages04:59
oobeall i have to do is delete /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mythbuntu-hardy.list  aswell05:00
rhpot1991_lapto1oobe: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Backup_your_database05:01
rhpot1991_lapto1you will most likely either need to remove the newer ones or force the older ones to install05:01
oobeok thanks05:02
rhpot1991_lapto1np05:02
hadsAre the weekly packages just fixes?05:04
oobeyeah 2 groups fixes and svn05:05
hadsCool. If they are trunk then your chema will be to new to downgrade.05:05
hads*schema05:05
rhpot1991_lapto1always make sure you backup your db before making changes :)05:06
ajhtiredwolfis it possible to have mythtv save recordings as .avi automatically ?05:54
oobeno05:54
oobebut you can transcode them to nuv then use nuvexport05:54
ajhtiredwolfBummer, can you convert them after words?05:54
rhpot1991you could transcode them after they record, this can be done autmagically when its done05:54
ajhtiredwolfIs nuvexport a seperate program?05:55
rhpot1991I think the built in transcoder can do xvid, don't hold me to it though05:55
ooberhpot1991, i ended up just need to repair some tables08:02
oobebut every time i install weekly builds updates i need to fix things08:03
oobewill i be ok if i just delete  /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mythbuntu-hardy.list and never update08:03
JonathonHow do I create a channel guide based on free-to-air satellite channels? Has anyone done something like this before? Are there tools to help?09:06
JonathongregL: You there at the moment?09:09
JonathonAnyone around who has free-to-air satellite connected through composite video to MythTV?09:16
hadsYou'll need some sort of grabber.09:17
Jonathonhads: Yeah, that is what I was looking at. Is there some howto on making one at all do you know, or a site that lists some for non-standard tv channels?09:18
hadsMaking a grabber? The XMLTV wiki has info on that but you probably don't need to code one up there's likely already one that exists.09:19
JonathonI figured there would be, but all the ones I have found so far are for standard pay and free tv channels. I can't seem to find any for particular satellite channels.09:20
beavis_hey guys I cannot install today's mythtv-common on intrepid (the postinst fails with ec=20). Are there any known issues with it?13:52
superm1beavis_, that's not a good thing.14:39
superm1laga rev'ed it14:39
beavis_I don't really get an error msg so I don't really know what's going on14:40
beavis_Setting up mythtv-common (0.21.0+fixes18722-0ubuntu1) ...14:42
beavis_dpkg: error processing mythtv-common (--configure): subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 2014:42
beavis_that's it14:42
beavis_starting the postinst script with set -x only shows some irrelevant things14:43
beavis_+ . /usr/share/debconf/confmodule14:46
beavis_+ [ !  ]14:46
beavis_+ PERL_DL_NONLAZY=114:46
beavis_+ export PERL_DL_NONLAZY14:46
beavis_+ [  ]14:46
superm1beavis_, well i'm setting up a chroot right now, i'll see if the same thing happens14:51
superm1beavis_, i'm surprised set -x didn't point at what was wrong though14:51
beavis_I'll try to downgrade to see what happens14:53
beavis_superm1: strange, the same issue with 0.21.0+fixes18379-0ubuntu114:54
superm1beavis_, sounds like a different package is causing it then...14:55
beavis_superm1: is there a way to find out which package is causing it?14:56
superm1beavis_, well set -x would have been that way..14:56
superm1to see what package got called and started to fail14:57
beavis_well so I'll reboot the box...15:04
superm1beavis, well i did it fine in my chroot15:16
superm1it's gotta be somethin else going on here15:16
beavis:(15:28
beavisdo you use the us-intrepid servers (the most current ones)?15:29
beavisjust trying to find out if it's an updated package I already have and you don't15:29
beavissuperm1: a reboot didn't help. looks like I broke something :(15:52
