[00:38] !status [00:38] I am alive. [00:43] Anyone around? i am looking to setup a system where media is streamed from a backend server to a frontend, similar to how mythtv currently does, but i'm not interedted in recording live tv. I'm looking for a server setup where i can upload media files directly to the backend and have them streamed on demand to the frontend using a simple interface, is such thing possible with mythtv? or am I up the wrong tree on this one? [00:49] yes you can do that with mythtv [01:03] !ChanServ [01:03] Sorry I don't know about ChanServ [01:03] ! rip dvd [01:03] Sorry I don't know about rip dvd [01:04] !ask how to rip dvds [01:04] Sorry I don't know about ask how to rip dvds [01:04] !ask [01:04] Please don't ask if anyone is around or if it is alright to ask a question.

[01:05] How can do i get mythbuntu to play dvd's and rip them to the HD? I've alreay installed the w32codecs and libdvdcss2. [04:03] You could do that with mythtv but you're probably better off using something else. [04:41] hey all - i botched the database on my mythbuntu ibex install and i want to restore a default one. can i just force a reconfigure of a package to do it? [04:44] !database [04:44] Sorry I don't know about database [04:44] !help [04:44] !help For a complete list of my knowledge visit: http://www.baablogic.net/Zinn.cgi Other available commands: !status, !about, !bug [bug_number]. [04:44] !mysql [04:44] 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 [11:42] hi [11:43] I'm interested in building an energy efficient, quite HTPC [11:43] the AMD 780G chipset seems quite nice [11:44] how does it work with Mythbuntu? [11:44] will it use the hardware HD acceleration? [13:28] Hi. Its it possible to have mythtv start when I boot my computer, without having XFCE running in the background? [13:30] !dvd [13:30] Sorry I don't know about dvd [13:30] !rip [13:30] Sorry I don't know about rip [13:30] !play dvd [13:30] Sorry I don't know about play dvd [13:31] !play [13:31] Sorry I don't know about play [13:31] You need help playing a dvd? [13:32] hi I installed diskless-server on my hardy server and then tried to install diskless-server-client but I get a ltsp error: http://pastebin.com/d1f6b88eb its german, Im afraid, but I can try to translate it [13:34] and this is the next message I get: http://pastebin.com/d42dbc237 this time in english [13:35] !diskless [13:35] Sorry I don't know about diskless [14:24] does someone know a better howto than this one: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MythTV/Install/Hardy/Diskless it seems to be outdated and doesnt work for me? [14:31] gumpert345: http://www.mythbuntu.org/installation_manual [14:32] !help [14:32] !help For a complete list of my knowledge visit: http://www.baablogic.net/Zinn.cgi Other available commands: !status, !about, !bug [bug_number]. [14:39] rhpot1991 thanks for the link, but I run a server without xfce, kde or gnome, and this pdf says Iam supposed to use the mythbuntu control centre, which I dont know how to do without a monitor [14:42] is there some way to access it via ssh or http? [14:50] gumpert345: you can do it over ssh [14:50] ssh -X ip [14:50] will forward X apps [14:54] ah ok, so all I need to do is: sudo apt-get install myth-backend and sudo apt-get install myth-control-center and connect to it via ssh -X? [14:56] gumpert345: yes, watch the dependencies though make sure X isn't in there [14:57] it is required for the frontend [14:57] might be for MCC, I'd have to check [14:57] sry I didnt understand the last part, do you mean I shall check that no X is installed? [14:58] well I take it that you are running a cli server? [14:58] no X interface [14:58] yes [14:59] if you do sudo apt-get install -s myth-control-centre it will do a test run, and you can see all the packages that would get installed without actually installing [14:59] just to make sure you don't pick up Xorg in the process [15:00] ah ok thx [15:00] I found this: mythweb do you think it can do the job too? [15:01] mythweb can do a lot, but not everything MCC can, also mythweb doesn't have error checking in place so you can easily break things if you don't know what values should be in there [15:02] ah ok [15:39] rhpot 1991 http://pastebin.com/d36c1116 what do you think? [15:49] gumpert345: should be good I think [15:56] I connected to the server using ssh -X ip on the mac osx terminal and a X11 window opened but all I can see is another terminal that says: bash-3.2 [15:57] gumpert345: I've never done x forwarding to osx sorry [15:58] I doubt its a mac problem [15:58] maybe its because there is no xserver on hardy? [15:59] http://pastebin.com/d1bd29ee2 [16:02] looks like it [16:03] sudo apt-get install xserver? [16:03] gumpert345: before you do that what exactly are you trying to accomplish here? [16:04] no need loading x on there if you can do it without [16:05] i want to run a diskless mythbuntu server on my fileserver so I wont need a HDD for my frontend [16:10] Id like to do it without, but if there is no other way. . . [16:11] ah I'm not all that familiar with the diskless, but I'd venture you'd be better using MCC for it [16:14] as far as I can see, I need something like an xserver for mcc, right`? === rhpot1991 is now known as rhpot1991_ === rhpot1991_ is now known as rhpot1991 === Zinn is now known as Zinn_ === Zinn_ is now known as Zinn [17:01] does anyone know of support for the JMicron JMB381 Firewire chip on the MSI P6NGM-FIH motherboard? I havent been able to find information on it but mythbuntu 8.1 does at least recognize it but shows no Nodes under plugreport. === MythbuntuGuest58 is now known as SgtPepper === SgtPepper is now known as SgtP [17:03] <-- formerly MythbuntuGues58 [17:20] SgtP, i'm doubtful you'll be finding an answer to your question unfortunately [17:20] at least in here [17:20] i'm assuming you have a device plugged in when you are looking for nodes on plugreport? [17:23] Yes, I have a QIP 7100 (Fios STB) which isnt showing up so I took an old Firewire Ipod and tried that as well with no luck. [17:24] The ipod did power up and act like it was connecting but still have nothing under plug report. [17:25] your best bet is to try to boot off of a 9.04 alpha disk [17:25] and see if it's more functional there [17:25] if not, you can at least try to get a more accurate bug report together [17:27] Ok.. that sounds like a good starting point.. After that I may just pull an old card out of a desktop and try and use that.. [17:29] well that or if it works with 9.04 stick with 9.04 :) [17:30] you may have issues with firewire being active on that box as well [17:31] I didn't think fios played nice with firewire, I'd be very interested if it did though :) [17:31] yeah just planned to wait for the release.. Since this is something new trying to make it stable as I can for the Wife factor.. :) [17:31] ah superm1 knows all about that. Jackie doesn't like it when the mythbox aint working ;) [17:32] haha [17:32] IIRC Jackie is the cause of it nor working sometimes, with wire eating and all [17:32] haha [17:32] well there are at least 2 ppl who got it working (For channel change only). [17:32] hi there [17:32] !hi | franqus [17:32] franqus: Hi $nick, how are you? Something we can help you with today? [17:33] i got trouble setting up my lirc with imon pad remote control [17:33] http://rocketmonkeys.com/index.php <-- Blog about using the FIOS box. Has his ch6100 script up there now too.. [17:33] is there a lirc chan on irc? [17:34] franqus, #lirc i thinks [17:34] :D [17:34] thx [17:34] SgtP: that is one bright site [17:35] whoops.. === MythbuntuGuest16 is now known as SgtP [17:35] yeah its bright.. but has some good info on the Fios setup. [17:36] thats a shame its channel changing only [17:37] any lirc-users in here using soundgraph's imon remote control? [17:46] yeah I would like to get the video out of it but at least I can get something. I have the HDHomerun for the OTA stuff. so that just leaves Discovery channel as far as I care.. :) [17:48] gee wouldn't it be nice if those tuning boxes you got from Verizon for FIOS and AT&T for uverse would spit out QAM streams [17:48] imagine how this world would be :) [17:48] Does anyone know if the Hauppauge 1192 HDTV Tuner/Video Recorder is sufficient for my needs? [17:48] The 1212 was suggested, but the 1192 is less expensive. [17:51] Superml: Yeah would be nice.. Has anyone tried the whole FCC useful firewire port thing? I just read about it yesterday. So far I have been happyy with the tech support at Verizon but who knows how far that would go. [17:52] SgtP, at best you might get ota channels over firewire if you tried to do it with verizon i thinks [17:54] Yeah might give it a try once I get firewire working on the box at least. Ill stay in contact with the guy at rocketmonkey and see if he has tried as well.. [17:55] Batshua: Dont know if the 1192 would work but they are completly different animals. One is HD the other isnt. So it depends what you are trying to accomplish I would think. [17:59] I take that back a bit I guess the 1192 has a tuner etc. The 1212 doesnt have a tuner etc it will just take the raw component output into H.264 . So you would have to use a STB for tuning. [17:59] It looked like they were both HD. [17:59] This is why I asked. [18:01] well someone at newegg says it working in Myth/linux well.. [18:01] what are you trying to connect to the tuner? [18:38] SgtP: FCC only requires OTA channels I believe [18:39] some people get lucky and can get others
