sabhainhads .. after "commit changes" .. I get a message from ltsp update about port 2000 already being declared .. window just stays open .. that's intended, right?03:42
hadssabhain: I asume you're talking about m-c-c (I mostly use the CLI) but that message is normal.03:43
hadsI see it when I run an update.03:43
sabhainok .. it ran the update fine, and didn't appear to be an error ... how do you do commit changes from CLI?  is that in the docs?03:45

epochwolfHow would I setup a samba share as the music library? I have an existing fileserver on my network and the computer running MythUbuntu doesn't have enough disc space to store all the video and music I have on the file server. I have no issues digging into fstab to add my shares to the filesystem if I have to.15:17
JakeAfternoon.  Anyone familiar with DVD import in MythBuntu?22:03
tgm4883_laptop!ask | Jake22:11
ZinnJake: Please 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.22:11
JakeJust trying to be cordial, sir.  Sorry about that.22:13
JakeI'm having a problem with "Optical Discs -> Import DVD".  Disc play is fine, mtd is running and recognizes disks and events, the only clue I'm going on is that I get an ~/.xsession-errors (double) entry on entering the rip screen (which displays the familiar "No Jobs. Checking and/or waiting for DVD.".  The line is "dvdripbox.o: Asked to add an audio track for a title that doesn't exist".22:17
JakeThe only variable that may have changed is that I did a "Save" via MythWeb to the Settings -> Video screen (as the listed fix for solving the IMDB search problem).  Checked possible hidden characters, but haven't come across any yet.22:19
JakeActually, I can trace back the error to which call is generating that output line, but can make no sense of why it would be happening.22:37
MythbuntuGuest27Is it possible to use mythbuntu with no tv-capture cards, just as a media center like Xbox Media Center?22:52
encmonkeyCurrently, I'm kind of doing that.  I'm using it to watch movies, play music, etc.22:53
tgm4883_laptopMythbuntuGuest27, do you plan on adding tv cards later?22:53
MythbuntuGuest27Possibly.  Currently I cannot replicate the functions of my existing DVR STB at any kind of reasonable price (due to my desire, for example, to record non-clear QAM HD channels) - if this becomes possible in the future, I will do it22:54
MythbuntuGuest27But in the mean time I would like to be able to play HD videos from a media server, run game emulators, play music, etc22:55
tgm4883_laptopwell if you plan on adding the tv cards later, then i'd say install mythtv22:55
tgm4883_laptopif not, i'd say install xbmc22:55
MythbuntuGuest27Xbmc on x86?22:56
tgm4883_laptopyes22:56
MythbuntuGuest27Intriguing22:56
tgm4883_laptopI don't run that myself, but they have been porting it over for awhile now22:56
MythbuntuGuest27I will look into that, thank you for the suggestions22:56
MythbuntuGuest27tgm, do you have any suggestions what to use on the back-end media server?22:57
tgm4883_laptopwhat to use?23:00
encmonkeywhen transcoding a dvd being read from a frontend box on a backend server, how to I tell the backend mtd instance to get data from the frontend drive?  Do I need to use nfs from the frontend to share it out?23:11
