[00:12] easiest way I found Kevin` was to point your web browser to http://yourlocalip/phpmyadmin login with the password you set up when you installed and create the database [00:23] after I asked I found that dpkg-reconfigure mythtv-database will do it, apparently [00:24] cool, sounds much easier than the way I did it [03:13] can anyone in here help me? I have been trying to get my TV card to work but it just doesn't seem to want to scan for the channels I have tried it in myth, kaffeine, tvtime, and dvbscan and nothing I try seems to work the card is a wintv-hvr-1800 as far as I can tell the drivers are installed and updated I am running on ubuntu 8.10 but no matter what program I use it doesnt seem to complete the scan. ... I have checked and t [03:13] he card is supposed to be supported by just about everything but I am missing something [04:04] I think I screwed up my mythbuntu install and I don't know how to revert to the default settings - anyone has an idea? === NixonClaus is now known as Nixon [10:43] do i need to build ffmpeg from source to get mp3 / xvid support on mythbuntu ? [10:44] no, medibuntu or multiverse should have good packages [10:44] alright cool , thanks for the quick answer =) [12:15] Does anyone see my question? No ideas? [13:14] wait a second [13:15] antebe: this bug might give some insight: bhttps://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lirc/+bug/204960 [13:56] laga: thanks i will look at it right now! Sorry, was doing something else for a while... [14:11] laga: I read through it, but I do not immediately see if there IS a workaround I can try, or not? In case there is, could you please point me to which response (time) I should be looking at? Sorry, I am not really into this, installed my first Linux ever about a week ago when I started to get my new HTPC working. But I worked with Unix over 10 years ago, so I am comfortable running commands, as long as I know which ones to run... [14:36] Got a problem with my fresh install on intrepid Ibex, for some reason the frontend cannot connect to the server ip or port. The backend is running the IP and port are set in mythtv-setup and the database info is correct the firewall is an iptables that have policy accept on output and allows tcp input on the mythtv port and mysql port [14:36] oh and it worked on my previous box (hardy) with the same settings and firewall script [14:40] I simply do not know where to start troubleshooting on this one [15:48] laga! (or whoever...) Thank you so much! Now irw gives me the right inputs for all my remote buttons. BUT: the mythbuntu auto generated config files (I mean those in $home/.lirc/*) do not work at all! and the names I get after KEY_ in the irw output are not the same as in my /etc/lirc/lircd.conf? Where are the names coming from, and more important: what should I put in the mythtv config file, for example? [16:01] fyi, on my card, the hal string I had to use in the .fdi file was "HVR 1110", so it had nothing to do with saa7134. My event was /dev/input/event7, but I guess that is trivial. I guess you don't mind if I update the forum thread I mentioned in my first posting here, as it might help some others? Once I get the remote to be understood in mythtv, that is... still get no response inside mythtv now... [16:13] Is the project still looking for new devs? [16:28] I have set up mythweb and I can acess it locally at 127.0.0.1/mythweb however I can not access it remotely. What port is it on? I tried to do a netstat and type in random portnoumters to try remotely but no sucess. Any suggestions? [16:31] If that;s the URL, then it's the default HTTP port - 80 [16:33] yes but my router uses that port [16:34] If it is only listening on *localhost* no remote access will be possible [16:35] Can you access it using the PC's hostname as well? e.g. http://hostname/mythweb [16:35] when i type http://externalip/mythweb it gives a blank page [16:36] It isn't running on the router though. First ensure mythweb is available via the ethernet port (not just localhost), then in the router you could set up port-forwarding to route an external public port that isn't used to the internal PC, port 80 [16:36] yes on the same box ican use http://hostname/mythweb [16:37] If http://hostname/mythweb works then you just need the port-forwarding rule I just described setting in the router [16:38] so on my router I can just make up a port and forward it to 80 on my mythbox? [16:38] Provided the port you choose isn't in use by anything else, yes [16:39] cool i'll try now [16:39] then, from external PCs, you'd access it using http://external.hostname:port/mythweb [16:39] note the :port to specify the custom port number (because it isn't the default port 80) [16:41] so i did it and it takes me to default apache "it works" [16:43] ok i just got it [16:44] i looked in /var/www [16:44] and there was a mythweb directorys so i appened that to the address [16:44] and it worked [16:47] thanks [16:50] Is there an interface to add a password or do i need to modify .htaccess? [16:53] I have been having issues playing DVD's. I have installed the latest packages and updates for playing them but it seems Disney DVD's and a few other new releases seem to lock up the system instead of play them at the root menu or upon selecting play. [16:54] have enough ram? [16:54] 2 gig [16:55] oh [16:55] ok [16:55] thats all i got [16:55] lol [16:57] System Specs : Athlon 64 X2 - 2 Gig Ram - 500 GB Hard Drive - Nvidia 6100 on motherboard running Mythbuntu x64 8.04. This should be more than enough to accomplish anything but I'm also having similiar issues on another system Athlon 3200 - 1 GB RAM - 250 GB Hard Drive - Nvidia 5800 AGP card. [16:57] The Second system is running Mythbuntu i386 8.04 [16:58] MythbuntuGuest01, you can password protect mythweb from MCC [17:01] i see thankx [17:01] Is the project still looking for new devs? [17:15] anyone use comcast digtal cable? [17:17] I am still having problems with my remote, would appreciate very much if someone could help me. If I run irw I get outputs like for example "69 0 KEY_LEFT event7". In my /etc/lircd.conf I have a corresponding line "Left 0x0069". In .lirc/mythtv I have a group with "remote=Hvr1110" (the same as the name in /etc/lircd.conf), prog=mythtv, button=Left, config=left. Still, when I press the button in mythtv nothing happens! Same for AL [17:19] IntuitiveNipple, always ;) [17:20] tgm4883_laptop_, What areas are needy? [17:20] We aren't picky [17:20] documentation, artwork, coding [17:20] theres always room for one more === tgm4883_laptop_ is now known as tgm4883_laptop [17:21] I've just added dbus support for gnome-screensaver (to fix the laggy performance when pressing remote buttons problem), and backported the native pulseaudio patches to 0.21+fixes (for Ubuntu Intrepid). [17:21] Coding is my interest [17:21] IntuitiveNipple, join us in #ubuntu-mythtv-dev [17:22] *another* channel!? :O [17:22] well this channel is for support [17:22] we try not to clog it with dev talk [17:22] aha [18:36] heyheyhey: yes [19:17] hey im using myhtbuntu, the backend is over the network on a different machine, unfortunately the local ip keeps changing. anyone know how to make it static? Im using a netgearwgt624 [19:24] how is weekly comming along? [19:24] can't seem to find any new updates on either uk nor us. [19:25] they'll be there when they're done :) [19:25] i'll push new ones this weekend i guess [19:25] wound gr8 it will then be premier for updates for interpid right! [19:26] have you got any news on when mpeg4 encoding will be done with graphiccard in mythtv? [19:26] I'm looking for hd material in mythbuntu [19:27] no, there have been weekly builds for intrepid in the past AFAIR [19:27] henrik_: when 0.22 is released, probably [19:28] sound perfect! I'm waiting on upgrading my htpc untill I get more news on witch graphiccards will be supported... [19:29] it would almost be possible to run a backend on a atom processor with the right graphic card??!! [19:29] can't someone give me an idea on what might be wrong when irw works, but the remote is completely dead inside mythtv? (or any other app, like mplayer)? This is driving me crazy. in all threads I have been reading, it says that if irw runs, then the remote should work!? [19:30] antebe: your .lircrc is not correct [19:30] look in /home/user/.lirc/mythtv [19:32] i think it is, i am using the auto generated ones. And a strange thing: if I kill the lirc process, and then run "sudo lircd -d /dev/input/event7" then the remote does start to work - but only some buttons. And there is no correlation between what changes I make in the lircrc file... [19:32] i mean the remote starts to work in mythtv... [19:35] I'm having an issue with my tuner card [19:36] yes, my .lircrc just contain include lines with for example ./.lirc/mythtv. in that file i have exactly the same inputs as in the /etc/lircd.conf... i posted more details at 6.17.05 above... i have been having so much trouble with this, but laga's help earlier today at least put me a step forward (or - did it?) ;-) [19:36] when I boot my machine, it almost always outputs green/yellow noise [19:37] I have to manually go through several "rmmod tuner && modprobe tuner" attempts to get good tv output [19:38] http://pastebin.com/m22d4796d [19:39] henrik, laga: another strange thing that might help you bright guys: when irw works, irrecord does not. When I kill the lirc process and start with sudo lircd... as above, then irrecord does work. hmmm??? [19:39] (the last part seems to be the important part) [19:40] antebe: have you tried posting on the forums? [19:41] not after you helped me earlier today... i could now if you think it a good idea. What I am struggling to understand, is what difference there is between running irw and running mythtv? [19:43] for example, I am not sure my hardware.conf file is correct, as there are so many different ideas at different forums. If irw runs, then is that "proof" that the hardware.conf is correct? [20:26] I posted in the forum: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6445618#post6445618 [20:55] hi all! could someone halp me with usb-uirt? [21:42] is there a live cd that does both front and backend? === croppa_ is now known as croppa [21:53] cowbud: nope [21:53] frontend only, until you install [21:53] ok thanks [21:55] heyheyhey: did you get your comcast question answered? [22:02] does anyone have an answer to this problem: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=917649 ? [22:02] it is not my post, but I have the same problem [22:03] an alternative solution, I guess, would be to use the internal player for watching videos, is that possible? [22:14] * KjetilK tries [22:16] yup, it worked [22:47] i went to best buy they gave me a smartpath ire-1.0 single ir emitter is that right one? [23:16] i am confused how i hook up digtal cable to mythtv
