[00:30] <BCampbell> suddenly lost ability to record.  Setup two shows to record tonite, now they're not listed and I cannot schedule anything to record.  Please give me some hints
[00:44] <BCampbell> never mind...looked like an setup issue..resolved now
[01:18] <bsusa> hello
[01:20] <bsusa> could someone please help me? Whenever i run Mythbuntu frontend fullscreen, the taskbar does not dissapear from the screen, why is this?
[01:23] <superm1> bsusa, try closing compiz
[01:23] <superm1> (if it's open)
[01:28] <bsusa> i dont have it installed
[01:33] <tgm4883> bsusa, did you use the screen setup wizard?
[01:37] <bsusa> nope this happend when i plugged in my projector
[01:37] <bsusa> its always been working fine though
[01:55] <bsusa> i just uplugged seems to work fine now
[01:56] <bsusa> so you know much about mythtv?
[01:56] <bsusa> you know how you can remotley watch it through a database
[01:57] <bsusa> is it possible to add the Mythvideo feature to it as well so you can watch Videos as well as Recordings
[02:08] <arrrghhh> howdy folks.  when I cat /dev/video0 > /tmp/test.mpg - i get video (static) so i'm guessing it just needs to be set to a channel.  when i setup myth, it sees the card but it doesn't seem to work.  says "tuner1 unavailable" in the system status page.
[02:11] <arrrghhh> i don't get anything when i goto "watch tv" - so there's definitely something i still need to do to setup the card within myth... i'm just not sure what!  i've never used mythbox before, but i've always been very interested in the idea.  my work was throwing a computer away with a pvr-150 in it, so i figured i'd give it a shot!
[02:24] <Shadow__X> arrrghhh, have you looked up on the myth wiki on how to setup your card
[02:24] <Shadow__X> hey superm1 for the totem mythtv plugin i have the info in gconf put the plugin isnt in the totem menu
[02:25] <hads> !logs
[02:25] <Zinn> MythTV logs are stored in /var/log/mythtv/   You can use mythbuntu-log-grabber from the Applications menu to automatically post the most relevant logs to our pastebin.
[02:25] <hads> arrrghhh: Check those, they should have pointers
[02:26] <bsusa> is it possible to add the Mythvideo feature to it as well so you can watch Videos as well as Recordings
[02:32] <Shadow__X> superm1, you here
[02:33] <Shadow__X> i just read that the mythtv plugin wasnt ready for 8.10s release is that trust
[02:33] <Shadow__X> and if so are there still no newer builds that reinpmiment that feater
[02:52] <bsusa> hello anyone here
[02:52] <bsusa> ?
[02:54] <Shadow__X> anyone know how to recet the keyring password
[03:13] <bsusa> can you use a shared folder on MythVideo to play remote videos?
[03:44] <Shadow__X>  using the frontend
[03:59] <bsusa_> on the remote pc
[04:00] <bsusa_> i cant get samba to see the shared folders any ideas?
[04:31] <bsusa> hello all
[04:32] <bsusa> i setup samba and i cannot see anyone on the network, i am not sure wats wrong, could someone help me please
[04:55] <Fritz> hi
[04:57] <Fritz> I was hoping somebody here might have a suggestion for me regarding a MythTV problem I'm having with mythbuntu.
[04:58] <Fritz> When watching liveTV or a recording, it frequently stops responding to the remote or keyboard input.  I'll push several buttons and nothing will happen.
[04:59] <Fritz> Then, anywhere from 30 seconds to 2 minutes later, it is like mythTV "catches up" and it will run all of my button presses at once
[05:01] <Fritz> I've been using mythtTV for 5 years now and I've never had this type of problem, I don't even know where to start looking.
[05:05] <hads> I've heard of a few people with that lately, not seen it myself though.
[05:06] <hads> I *think* there's a ticket on it
[05:06] <Fritz> I've had trouble finding anything, but it's probably a lack of knowing what to search for
[05:10] <Fritz> thanks for the input though.  I'd be very happy just to confirm that I'm not the only one getting it
[05:12] <Fritz> I was using minimyth before I upgraded my machine last week, I think I'll try it on this hardware and see if I have the same issue
[05:22] <Shadow__X> anyone know how to autostart objects in xfce
[05:23] <hads> objects?
[05:23] <Shadow__X> programs
[05:23] <Shadow__X> better?
[05:23] <hads> ~/.config/autostart
[05:24] <Shadow__X> ah alright i guess no gui eh
[05:24] <Shadow__X> lol
[05:24] <Shadow__X> asking for too much
[05:24] <Shadow__X> thanks hads
[05:25] <hads> There may be one, I don't know much about XFCE
[05:26] <Fritz> looks like there was a gui released for XFCE 4.4 - http://www.xfce.org/about/tour
[05:26] <Fritz> so it should be available, maybe in the repos
[05:27] <Shadow__X> ah true didnt think of repos
[05:27] <Shadow__X> Fritz, yeah i did find that
[05:27] <Shadow__X> just didnt think
[05:28] <Fritz> looks like it is installed for me
[05:28] <Fritz> xfce4-autostart-editor is the command
[05:29] <Shadow__X> yeah didnt read the 4 there
[05:48] <Fritz> hads, do you happen to have any idea if the bug that I described is considered a mythtv bug or a mythbuntu bug?
[05:58] <hads> Fritz: Mythtv
[05:58] <hads> AFAIK
[05:59] <Fritz> thanks again
[05:59] <hads> np
[06:25] <bsusa> i have 1 ubuntu machine and a Myrhbuntu machine and im trying to get samba working to views shares on each one, i have set it up and i cannot see anything. I dont understand what im doing wrong, can somone help me please
[07:11] <bsusa> i have 1 ubuntu machine and a Myrhbuntu machine and im trying to get samba working to views shares on each one, i have set it up and i cannot see anything. I dont understand what im doing wrong, can somone help me please
[07:21] <Fritz> are you just sharing among the two machines?
[07:22] <bsusa> i want to get these two working first
[07:22] <Fritz> the reason I ask, is that nfs is much simpler for connections between two linux machines, but it won't work for you if you want to access from another OS
[07:24] <Fritz> if you do want to use samba, then the easiest way with any recent ubuntu variant is to boot into the gnome desktop, then right click the folder you want to share
[07:24] <bsusa> cool i just want to share from Mythbuntu to Ubuntu
[07:25] <Fritz> okay, then I would definitely recommend nfs
[07:25] <bsusa> what should i do?
[07:25] <Fritz> when you mount an nfs share, it acts just like it is on your local computer
[07:25] <bsusa> k
[07:26] <bsusa> do i have to keep mounting it when i need to use it?
[07:26] <bsusa> how would i mount this?
[07:26] <Fritz> assuming that both computers are actually on, you can put a mount instruction in your fstab file and it will mount automatically at boot
[07:27] <Fritz> if they aren't always on, then there is a tool called autofs/automount that just mounts it automatically when you click ont he directory you want it mounted at
[07:28] <Fritz> first, for both computers you will need ot make sure that nfs-kernel-server is installed from the repos, I don't think ubuntu has it by default
[07:28] <bsusa> 1 sec ill do that
[07:31] <bsusa> k they wher both installed
[07:31] <bsusa> what next?
[07:31] <Fritz> well, there is probably a graphical way to do this, but I don't know it
[07:31] <Fritz> are you comfortable using a console /editing config files?
[07:32] <bsusa> yeh
[07:33] <Fritz> okay, so to share a directory, you can edit /etc/exports
[07:33] <Fritz> I think there are some examples commented out by default, here is an example of one of my exports
[07:34] <Fritz>    /vault/music 192.168.0.*(rw,sync,all_squash)
[07:34] <Fritz> so for that line, I'm sharing /vault/music with all computers that have an IP address starting with 192.168.0.
[07:35] <Fritz> rw = read/write access, sync involves how data is written to the drive and is considered safest, all_squash makes everyone that connects to the share have guest access
[07:36] <Fritz> you can also use root_squash and everyone but root will have access based on their user/group
[07:37] <bsusa> k so if im sharing videos5 folder and my ip was 192.168.1.104 i would  /nas2/videos5 192.168.1.*(rw.sync.all_squash)
[07:37] <Fritz> that is, you could use root_squash instead of all_squash
[07:37] <Fritz> yes, that would allow anyone on your private network to mount it
[07:37] <bsusa> yeh thats cool
[07:37] <bsusa> let me give that a go
[07:38] <Fritz> make sure you are using commas, not periods "rw,sync"
[07:38] <bsusa> 1 sec
[07:38] <bsusa> ok
[07:42] <bsusa> k done
[07:42] <bsusa> do i need to reload a service?
[07:42] <Fritz> exactly
[07:42] <bsusa> which one?
[07:42] <Fritz> should just be nfs-kernel-server
[07:43] <Fritz> sudo /etc/init.d/nfs-kernel-server restart
[07:43] <bsusa> k cool 1 sec
[07:44] <bsusa> k thats done
[07:44] <Fritz> now, to test mounting it manually, on the client machine you an run "sudo mount 192.168.1.104:/nas2/videos5 /media/videos"
[07:44] <Fritz> replace "/media/videos" with whatever directory you want it to show up in
[07:45] <Fritz> the directory must actually exit, but should be empty
[07:46] <bsusa> k 1 sec
[07:49] <bsusa> cool done i can see it
[07:49] <bsusa> thanks very much
[07:49] <Fritz> no problem
[07:50] <Fritz> for an example of "permanently" mounting it, you could add a line to your /etc/fstab file like: "192.168.1.104:/media/videos nfs rw,auto"
[07:50] <Fritz> er, that isn't right, I cut some of it off
[07:51] <Fritz> "192.168.1.104:/nas2/videos5 /media/videos nfs rw,auto"
[07:52] <Fritz> however, that will only succesfully mount if the host computer is on when you boot the client computer
[07:53] <Fritz> if you aren't confident of that, I'd say look into "autofs" and it will just mount when you try to open /media/videos (or where ever you put it
[07:54] <bsusa> cool thanks heaps once more
[07:54] <Fritz> have fun with it
[07:54] <Fritz> g'night
[11:12] <bsusa> hello
[14:25] <Crewsr3_3> is there a way to get a RSS feed of the mythubuntu forums so I can see what is being talked about
[14:36] <Crewsr3_3> is there a way to get a RSS feed of the mythubuntu forums so I can see what is being talked about
[17:40] <d0netsFN> hey is anyone here?
[17:40] <d0netsFN> i was having trouble getting my audio working for my xbox 360 through my pc using mic input
[17:41] <d0netsFN> my pvr 150 has the red and white jacks. how can i set my mythbuntu to play that audio input from the pvr 150 ?
[19:23] <jduggan> does dvd ripping work out of the box in mythbuntu?
[19:28] <rhpot1991> jduggan: depends on the dvd
[19:29] <rhpot1991> for the most part yes, but some with heavy protection will give you hastles, pretty easy to solve by using gddrescue to rip them
[19:31] <jduggan> most are oldish
[19:31] <jduggan> newest is prolly matrix revolutions, which is a good few years old now :)
[19:31] <rhpot1991> I've seen some issues with dvds that I assume aren't standard, you can fix some playback issues by using xine if you have issues
[19:32] <rhpot1991> !xine | jduggan
[19:32] <Zinn> jduggan: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Configuring_Xine
[19:32] <rhpot1991> I only really see it with oddball concert dvds and stuff like that
[19:32] <rhpot1991> jduggan: you should be pretty good, the new sony dvds are the ones that give you problems ripping normally
[19:33] <jduggan> xine??
[19:33] <jduggan> sorry, by ripping, i mean copying to disk and transcoding to xvideo
[19:33] <jduggan> not playing
[19:46] <rhpot1991> jduggan: you can ignore what I say about xine then, that is mostly for problems with playing back dvd menus
[19:48] <tgm4883> rhpot1991, err, IIRC, ripping is not OOB in mythbuntu
[19:48] <tgm4883> neither is playing for that matter
[19:48] <tgm4883> you have to activate that in MCC
[20:00] <erb-> can I add a menu to mythbuntu's GUI
[20:00] <erb-> like right now theres a section to see videos, music, movies
[20:00] <erb-> i want to add one for porn
[20:00] <erb-> so i dont gotta just drop all my porn in the same folder as all the movies
[20:18] <rhpot1991> tgm4883: think all you need is mythvideo
[22:36] <oobe> what is mcc
[22:36] <oobe> mythbuntu control centre
[22:36] <neoneddy> I see what you did there
[22:37] <oobe> what did i do
[22:37] <neoneddy> You asked, and answered your own question
[22:37] <oobe> lol
[22:37] <oobe> i did indeed
[22:38] <neoneddy> new to MythTV?
[22:38] <oobe> no
[22:38] <oobe> just some abreviations for things that are relatively new
[22:38] <oobe> like mcc
[22:39] <neoneddy> I find myself using "define: popculture term / acronym  here"
[22:40] <oobe> yeah i love using define:
[22:40] <oobe> i use it all the time
[22:40] <oobe> never met anyone else who does
[22:40] <neoneddy> like I was curious what the term "you better break yourself" meant once...
[22:40] <oobe> i only use it for single words
[22:40] <oobe> didnt relise you can do it for sentences
[22:40] <oobe> you mean define: in google
[22:41] <neoneddy> sure... most of that is found in urban dictionary though
[22:42] <neoneddy> it's how I stay hip and use my new pop culture words and phrases in the proper context...  we also got some sweet flash cards in the office as well, they have 50's era cartoons with today's slang and example usages
[23:01] <oobe> does anyone know a simple avi joined for linux
[23:01] <oobe> sounds like an interesting work place
[23:02] <oobe> i mean avi joiner
[23:03] <neoneddy> might not help much but I use D-Vision 3 on OS X
[23:03] <neoneddy> it's a unix variant and many OS X softwares are Linux Ports
[23:03] <neoneddy> might try searching for a linux version of that
[23:38] <snarkster> hi
[23:39] <snarkster> ive got mythbuntu up and running but having issues with dvds and automounting my usb mass storage drive.. do i just need to edit fstab and remove the udev lines?
