[00:00] <abarbaccia1> hey team, does mythbuntu use pulseaudio at all or is it planning on using it in upcoming releases?
[00:00] <abarbaccia1> i notice its installed on my intrepid desktop but not on my intrepid mythbuntu box by default
[00:01] <tgm4883_laptop> abarbaccia1, IIRC, mythtv doesn't work with pulseaudio
[00:01] <tgm4883_laptop> That could be old info though
[00:15] <abarbaccia1> well mythtv would still pump through alsa, and then theres teh pulseaudio layer on top of that i believe.
[00:15] <abarbaccia1> i just wanna play music from my desktop through my surroundsound without using the myth stuff
[00:15] <abarbaccia1> that's all
[00:19] <perilousapricot> tgm4883_laptop, myth works with pulse
[00:19] <perilousapricot> tgm4883_laptop, they fixed the bug on myth's end
[00:20] <abarbaccia1> yeah i just dug up the bug reports in trac
[00:20] <abarbaccia1> does mythbuntu have pulse installed though, it doesn't seem to
[00:21] <abarbaccia1> or at least not on the diskless frontend images...
[00:21] <abarbaccia1> might be adding that one in soon...
[00:41] <Batshua> Uhm.
[00:42] <Batshua> ... yeah, I somehow managed to break the connection between the frontend and the backend on my new mythbuntu install.  What's the name of that .conf file I should be editing to fix it?
[00:42]  * Batshua is made of loss and fail
[03:02] <Batshua> elp-hay
[03:28] <MythbuntuGuest96> Im running a via epia m front end and playback is very jittrey,  is there any setting that will help with this?
[03:39] <BassKozz> What is tearing? I've heard alot of people complain about tearing with VDPAU, but what is it?
[03:56]  * Batshua tears hair out
[03:56] <Batshua> ... I just can't get things working.  One thing gets fixed, another thing breaks.
[03:56] <Batshua> I know mysql is screwed up somehow, but I don't know how to fix it.
[03:58] <rhpot1991> !mysql | Batshua
[03:58] <rhpot1991> hmmmm
[03:59] <rhpot1991> !mysql | Batshua
[03:59] <Zinn> Batshua: If you are having problems connecting to your mysql database, you can perform the following to reconfigure it: 1. sudo dpkg-reconfigure mysql-server-5.0 (pay attention to the root password you set, you will need it for the next step) 2. sudo dpkg-reconfigure mythtv-database 3. sudo dpkg-reconfigure mythtv-common
[03:59] <MythbuntuGuest96> Im running a via epia m front end and playback is very jittrey,  is there any setting that will help with this?
[03:59] <MythbuntuGuest96> Im running a via epia m front end and playback is very jittrey,  is there any setting that will help with this?
[04:01] <MythbuntuGuest96> I read about XvMC but see no settings in the front end
[04:02] <Batshua> Zinn:  Thanks tons, here goes nothing.
[04:03] <Batshua> okay so I probably have to re-re-configure mysql because it now believes the user logging in to be root
[04:03] <Batshua> and that's probably a very bad idea
[04:03] <Batshua> but but but but
[04:03] <Batshua> now everything talks to everything again
[04:26] <Batshua> onto solving my next problem.  "watch tv" gives me only a blank screen.
[04:26] <Batshua> no errors reported in the mythfrontend log
[04:27] <Batshua> it is trying to interface with my cable box, but no joy
[04:35] <rhpot1991> !blank% | Batshua
[04:35] <Zinn> Batshua: If you try to watch tv and are greeted with a blank screen and a return to the menu then please check the permissions on your recording directory.  It should be owned by mythtv:mythtv, have permissions of 775, and not be inside your home directory
[04:36] <Batshua> okay dumb question
[04:37] <Batshua> oh, huh
[04:37] <Batshua> hold on.
[04:50] <Batshua> HOORAY
[04:50] <Batshua> I can haz a signal.
[04:50] <Batshua> mostly.
[04:50] <Batshua> it sorta kinda works.  but hell, i got some signals
[04:50] <Zinn> Batshua: Please watch your language.
[05:04] <Batshua> eh?
[16:26] <tifereth> hi
[16:27] <tifereth> i discover something strange, my remote works but no lirc is running, can annyone tell me which process does this?
[16:27] <tifereth> running mythbuntu 8.10
[16:31] <superm1> built in kernel support for your remote
[16:32] <tifereth> so how to confiure it then?
[16:32] <tifereth> due it only knows some keys
[16:32] <tifereth> or how to use lirc
[16:33] <superm1> you have to disable kernel from using it then by making an fdi file
[16:33] <tifereth> could you tell me how to do?
[16:34] <superm1> modify /usr/share/hal/fdi/preprobe/20thirdparty/lirc.fdi
[16:34] <superm1> and add the matching key for your remote from lshal
[16:37] <tifereth> okay thanks i try
[16:44] <tifereth> superm1: i edited the file rebootet and my remote is no more working yet ( through dbus ), but there's too no device i just got /dev/lircd
[16:44] <tifereth> no /dev/lirc0 or sth like this
[17:45] <superm1> tifereth, you still have to configure it with dpkg-reconfigure lirc
[17:45] <superm1> making that HAL change should have just turned off the kernel exclusively locking it
[17:47] <tifereth> okay thanks but already found out
[17:48] <tifereth> the device is /dev/input/event6
[17:48] <tifereth> i now have an comple lircd.conf is there a way to create the mythlirc conf out of it?
[17:48] <superm1> mythbuntu-lirc-generator
[17:48] <tifereth> ah... thanks
[20:41] <Nolive> hello
[21:03] <okirob> http://xkcd.com/
[21:05] <okirob> wow, totally wrong window
[21:37] <the[V]oid> Hi. I have a mythtv-box and a network-attached-storage (NAS) that contains mp3 files. I can mount it's share without problems. But whenever I try to play a file, for instance with mpg123, it just hangs. Any idea what the reason could be, or where to start searching the error? It worked until yesterday, I did not perform any changes to my network/system.
[21:38] <the[V]oid> Mounting the share from a different computer and playing from there works fine
[23:27] <gizmobay> I'm currently running myth under Fedora 8. I figure I'm going to need to upgrade since it's EOL for F8. Before I setup my original system, I tried MythDora and it was very fussy about upgrading as it would pouch the system. Is mythbunu like that?
[23:34] <dashcloud> I successfully upgraded my mythbuntu system before- it worked quite well, and nothing broke
[23:48] <gizmobay> thanks for the info
[23:48] <gizmobay> Does VDPAU work? I just bought a 9500GT
