[09:49] <jtucker> anyone awake?
[12:05] <cann> is it possible to use only the frontend from trunk with the backend from 0.21-fixes ?
[13:20] <rhpot1991> cann: no
[13:27] <cann> crap ! =)  but i thought so hehe . och well guess i have build a dev box then =)
[13:27] <cann> rhpot1991: thanks for the replay
[16:33] <weoh> Is it normal for mythvideo to take 10-15 seconds to play a video?
[19:43] <freddydea> Hi. I have been using myth-tv for years on Gentoo, and thought I would try ubuntu on a new machine. Things have gone OK and I have live TV working fine, but attempting to record doesn't seem to do anything and no errors are logged. Using mythbackground --verbose all is not showing any problems, is there somewhere else I should be looking? TIA
[21:33] <oobe> freddydea, have you setup guide data
[21:33] <oobe> how are you scheduling your recordings
[21:34] <oobe> or are you pressing R in the frontend whilst watching live tv
[21:52] <ernstp> my mythtv frontend wont show scheduled recordings, only live tv recordings
[21:53] <ernstp> but they exist, no problem there
[21:53] <rhpot1991> ernstp: hit m
[21:53] <rhpot1991> should pop up a menu
[21:53] <rhpot1991> and you can toggle between what it shows in there
[21:53] <rhpot1991> this is while on the recordings section
[21:54] <ernstp> rhpot1991: doh, thanks!
[21:54] <ernstp> nooot very intuitive
[21:55] <rhpot1991> ernstp: np, dunno how but sometimes that gets thrown out of whack
[21:58] <ernstp> rhpot1991: could have been my fault, maybe I messed there before I had recordings working...
[22:22] <freddydea> sorry, was out looking at snow. Mythtv is not scheduling recordings period, no matter if I use the frontend or mythweb
[22:28] <freddydea> So my question really is, how do I monitor what happens when I schedule a recoding in the frontend as it is not making changes to the database
[23:04] <freddydea> OK, a step forward - using logging on mysql, I can see that when I schedule a recording, a new record is added to the table 'record'. Yet if I click upcoming recordings in the frontend, it says I have not scheduled any recordings...
[23:17] <oobe> freddydea, this is wierd i dont know
[23:19] <freddydea> it gets weirder...
[23:20] <freddydea> If I use mythweb, if I select recodomg schedules I have all my upcoming and past recordings listed, but then if I click the upcoming recordings tab it is empty!
[23:21] <oobe> install mythtv-status
[23:21] <freddydea> oh? what does that do?
[23:21] <oobe> it wont lie its a small shell app that tells you encoder status and upcoming recordings
[23:22] <oobe> bbiab got to go up to shop for a min
[23:28] <freddydea> Mythstatus - next recording in: never
[23:32] <freddydea> OK question - I can't test this as I have no working mythtv setup here - if I disable the capture card on a working mythtv system, will it still list upcoming recordings even though it can't record?
[23:49] <oobe> possibly i dont know
[23:50] <oobe> i just got back and while i was out i had an idea you might want to go to mythtv-setup and double check your recording groups and paths are all ok
[23:50] <oobe> and also check that the directory where the recordings go are read write
[23:51] <oobe> chmod a+rw /var/lib/mythtv/recordings
[23:51] <oobe> if thats the location
[23:53] <oobe> but it still will show your upcoming recordings if you cant write to the recordings directory
[23:54] <oobe> in mythweb you can tell it to repair your sql tables its worth a try to
[23:54] <oobe> http://localhost/mythweb/settings/database
[23:56] <oobe> freddydea, also all your myth logs live in /var/log/mythytv
[23:56] <oobe> the backend log will be the most usefull
