| ozatomic | i can select the cards from the video sources | 04:08 |
| ozatomic | sorry i mean from 2. Capture Sources. When when i goto 3. Video sources and then scan channels it doesn't find any cahnnels for analog or digital | 04:08 |
| ozatomic | i have signal streangth of 99% aswell | 04:11 |
| Templar_Xion | So, does Mythbuntu support the Happauge WinTV2USB? | 04:46 |
| Templar_Xion | I knew about a year ago zero USB TV Tuners were supported, wondering if that has changed. | 04:47 |
| Saga_ | Hi people -- I'm new to MythTV. I recently bought a machine mainly for MythTV (Media Center). I'm looking for something that can run movies off the network (and/or) on hard drives as long as it uses dm-setup. I'm really new, really. | 07:46 |
| linux-hdtv | Hi, i am looking for a cheap graphics card able to render full HDTV on Linux. | 08:34 |
| laga | Saga_: well, since you bought it for mythtv, why don't you use that? although mythtv is more of a DVR | 08:36 |
| Saga_ | Hello laga, I'm looking up on Wiki and Installation Manual. Seems like there are servers and clients involved. I only need to set up a single machine. :o | 08:45 |
| Saga_ | laga, And yes, I'm planning to use this for recording too. | 08:46 |
| Saga_ | laga, I'm thinking -- Should I just install Ubuntu on this, set up SFTP and whatnot, then basically transfer the movies to there....But then again, the user interface should be very friendly for my family. | 08:47 |
| linux-hdtv | both my Nvidia GeForce 7600 GS and my ATI Radeon HD3200 drop frames, even with proprietary drivers ... | 09:10 |

| bouke | i need some help to configure mythbuntu with technotrend s2 3200 dvb-s2 card. | 10:19 |
| culinarian | how can I view shares on a windows box through mythbuntu, mythtv etc? My system shows Samba running but I don't see where to select network shares from another computer on the network. | 11:26 |
| jphillip | culinarian do you want to just view them once or mount them on boot every time? | 13:56 |
| culinarian | not sure, i'm really new to all this | 13:57 |
| culinarian | the how to's i've seen all involve alot of term work that i'm a little queasy with | 13:57 |
| culinarian | and I still don't understant the linux filesystem arch. | 13:57 |
| jphillip | well if you launch a file browser and type in the address bar smb:\\x.x.x.x | 14:09 |
| jphillip | it should show you shares on that computer | 14:09 |
| culinarian | xxxx being the ip of my windows box? | 14:09 |
| jphillip | yep | 14:09 |
| culinarian | file browser being something like Thunar? | 14:10 |
| jphillip | yep | 14:17 |
| jphillip | you should be able to ctrl+l if it doesn't give you an address bar, thats how you do it in gnome land at least | 14:18 |
| culinarian | I'm using the mythbuntu release that has the xfce4 (i believe). I just tried it with the live frontend with no luck. rebooting my installation to try there... samba may not have been loaded in the live environment. | 14:20 |
| jphillip | yes it uses xfce | 14:21 |
| culinarian | hmm, go to location... I start typing and the [open] button grays out and I get a "do not enter" symbol on the location line... | 14:22 |
| jphillip | culinarian hmmm apparently thunar does not support that, you are going to need to mount them yourself first | 14:38 |
| jphillip | culinarian http://opensource.weblogsinc.com/2005/11/28/howto-use-cifs-instead-of-smbfs/ | 14:39 |
| culinarian | ok, thanks for the help... this'll give me something to play around with until I break something else :) | 14:43 |
| jphillip | ideally if you put it in fstab then every boot it should be there | 14:44 |
| culinarian | I'll keep that in mind when I get to that step. thanks again | 14:45 |
| kirkland | superm1: did you get that mythtv/mysql/debconf bit sorted out, or did you need me to send you another patch? | 14:57 |
| kirkland | superm1: i see you uploaded yesterday, but i don't see it in the changelog | 14:57 |
| bobbob1016 | I'm trying to configure mymote, a mythtv remote control for the iphone, and I can't seem to get it working. I've been google-ing and no luck. Has anyone gotten it working? | 15:00 |
| superm1 | kirkland, i had to do two uploads. the first one FTBFS due to 2.6.28 being the kernel | 15:07 |
| superm1 | kirkland, in my pbuilder i didn't have 2.6.28 so didn't see it coming | 15:07 |
| kirkland | superm1: doh | 15:08 |
| kirkland | superm1: but my patch started working for you? it wasn't working last time we talked.... | 15:08 |
| superm1 | kirkland, it required some modifications to the other postinst to start working too | 15:09 |
| superm1 | kirkland, minor stuff really | 15:09 |
| superm1 | kirkland, http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-mythtv/mythtv/mythtv-fixes/changes 148 was yours, i did a bunch of other stuff ahead of it | 15:10 |
| kirkland | superm1: cool ;-) | 15:11 |
| superm1 | kirkland, i realized after i made all those changes that there probably still is a bit of a security hole here. mysql is being called with pw on the command line | 15:11 |
| superm1 | that likely means anyone who is snooping by can see it in action | 15:11 |
| kirkland | superm1: right, i wondered if you cared | 15:12 |
| superm1 | well it's so quick (1 sql command at a time) i'm not sure it's a critical issue | 15:12 |
| kirkland | superm1: it would be a problem for something in main | 15:13 |
| superm1 | kirkland, so how is it usually solved then? | 15:14 |
| kirkland | superm1: see the ecryptfs-utils stuff, where i do this quite a bit | 15:21 |
| kirkland | superm1: basically: | 15:21 |
| kirkland | superm1: the utility needing the password must support taking it in on stdin | 15:21 |
| kirkland | superm1: and then you'd use something like: | 15:21 |
| kirkland | printf "%s" "$password" | mysql --password - | 15:21 |
| kirkland | printf and echo are dash "builtin's" | 15:22 |
| kirkland | so they don't show up in proctab | 15:22 |
| bobbob1016 | Ok, after some playing around with the config, I am up to just getting mysql working. I need to do the "enable multiple access" thing at the end of this http://www.mythtv.org/docs/mythtv-HOWTO-6.html#ss6.2 but I can't seem to get the mysql prompt, can anyone help with this? | 15:32 |
| superm1 | kirkland, well the issue is that you still have to pass a command to mysql too though | 15:51 |
| superm1 | and normally that command is passed on stdin... | 15:51 |
| kirkland | superm1: tricky ... | 15:51 |
| kirkland | superm1: perhaps that's what they're getting out of that perl blip? | 15:52 |
| superm1 | kirkland, i mean the only thing i could think is to redirect that password to say fd3 and try to pass it in from there, but i dont know the syntax | 15:52 |
| superm1 | kirkland, yeah that's what i think the original maintainer's intention was, but that perl blip had problems where you could escape the password | 15:52 |
| superm1 | by using extra characters | 15:53 |
| kirkland | superm1: interesting ... | 15:53 |
| superm1 | so what's the lesser of two evils really | 15:53 |
| superm1 | i'm pretty sure it would be something similar to this, but i'm not sure of the syntax; echo "pass" 1>3 | echo "show databases;" | mysql -umythtv -p <3 | 15:56 |
| superm1 | kirkland, http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/password-security.html i wonder if that last comment is actually true on linux systems | 16:00 |
| kirkland | superm1: i'm asking kees/jamie | 16:02 |
| === protonchris_ is now known as protonchris | ||
| kees | superm1: ah, yeah, forgot about that. just don't 'export', and you should be safe. environ is private. | 17:13 |
| superm1 | kees, well unfortunately it doesn't seem to work on the mysql utility, probably only for mysqldump | 17:13 |
| kees | superm1: ah, bummer. you know about ~/.my.cnf ? | 17:14 |
| kees | [client] | 17:14 |
| kees | user = USER | 17:14 |
| kees | password = PASSWORD | 17:14 |
| kees | etc? | 17:14 |
| superm1 | no, wasn't aware of that, but how would that be usable / beneficial for postinst though? | 17:15 |
| superm1 | just create a tmp config with permissions only for root and use that? | 17:15 |
| superm1 | kees, ^ | 17:29 |
| kees | superm1: yeah, I think you can aim to a file | 17:36 |
| kees | maybe not, hrm | 17:36 |
| alien_ | mce remote blaster fails several times a day...the receiver always works, but the blaster will die for no apparent reason and I can never find anything in the logs. Had the problem with 7.10, but found a workaround...fresh installed 8.10 and I cant get it to work. Anyone had this issue before? | 17:36 |
| kees | hrm, nothing jumps out at me | 17:36 |
| superm1 | kees, well in any case i think the exact behavior isn't especially high priority as i was saying to kirkland, it's just 2-3 quick SQL commands during postinst only, but if we come up with some solution it's worthwhile putting in | 17:37 |
| * kees nods | 17:38 | |
