| holyscott | Question, I have tried 2 different ways to get mythtv working, ubuntu package, and mythbuntu live cd | 00:48 |
| holyscott | should this be working right away or does the live cd take some configuration still? | 00:49 |
| Shadow__X | holyscott, mythbuntu live cd cant be used as a frontend | 00:49 |
| Shadow__X | or to install mythtv | 00:49 |
| Shadow__X | it wont replace a mythbackend | 00:49 |
| holyscott | all I want to see is it running before I commit to a total reinstall | 00:50 |
| holyscott | my card is on the list so it should be supported | 00:50 |
| Shadow__X | so what running | 00:50 |
| holyscott | just fairly new to linux and no clue about sql stuff. | 00:50 |
| Shadow__X | you need to install mythtv for it to work | 00:50 |
| Shadow__X | holyscott, right the mythbuntu live cd is a great place to start | 00:50 |
| Shadow__X | you install it | 00:50 |
| holyscott | its a pinnacle 800i hd pci | 00:50 |
| Shadow__X | run it and configure hard ware and your on your way | 00:51 |
| Shadow__X | i have that card | 00:51 |
| Shadow__X | its good for digital | 00:51 |
| holyscott | any mthtv program, seetup, backend I run, all gives errors abotu sql database not connected | 00:51 |
| Shadow__X | on what install are you talking about | 00:52 |
| holyscott | last night I tried on linux mint kde rc1 dling the mint tv package | 00:52 |
| holyscott | the dl told me to set up a root password | 00:52 |
| holyscott | but nothing worked afterwards | 00:52 |
| holyscott | today, I tryed setting it up while on the live cd | 00:53 |
| holyscott | on the live cd I did see the configuration menu options | 00:53 |
| holyscott | but nothing when it went to setup mythtv. | 00:53 |
| holyscott | the card quit working in windows 7 and would be shocked to have it in linux | 00:54 |
| Shadow__X | holyscott, first to use and have a much easier setup take the live cd | 00:55 |
| Shadow__X | install mythbuntu | 00:55 |
| Shadow__X | reboot machine | 00:55 |
| Shadow__X | run the newly installed mythbuntu os | 00:55 |
| Shadow__X | update | 00:55 |
| Shadow__X | then run mythbackend setup | 00:55 |
| holyscott | has to be installed, wont work running off a cd? | 00:56 |
| holyscott | better to be usiing 8.10 or 9.04 alpa 6 or wait a few days for new beta 9.04? | 00:56 |
| Shadow__X | holyscott, yes you need to install it the backend to my knowledge needs to be installed | 00:57 |
| Shadow__X | the live cd can only be used as a frontend | 00:57 |
| holyscott | ok | 00:57 |
| Shadow__X | or to install | 00:57 |
| Shadow__X | i would recommend 8.10 | 00:57 |
| Shadow__X | you want something stable | 00:58 |
| Shadow__X | alpha is for testing and bug fixes | 00:58 |
| holyscott | would I have to do anything with mysql or roots or passwords, or just the setup program? | 00:58 |
| Shadow__X | when installing from live cd that is taken care for you | 01:00 |
| holyscott | awesome | 01:00 |
| holyscott | once I have it installed and running, it is safe to install kde or gnome over it? | 01:00 |
| Shadow__X | uh i wouldnt because its meant to just work along | 01:02 |
| Shadow__X | unless you are going to be running a frontend somewhere else | 01:02 |
| Shadow__X | i mean yeah you could just depends on how strong your system is if it will handle it well | 01:02 |
| Shadow__X | normal workload with mysql and mythbackend | 01:02 |
| holyscott | I have a modern gaming pc | 01:02 |
| holyscott | 4 gigs | 01:02 |
| Shadow__X | ah alright | 01:02 |
| Shadow__X | cpu | 01:02 |
| Shadow__X | ? | 01:03 |
| holyscott | 3gig core2du | 01:03 |
| holyscott | 8800gt | 01:03 |
| holyscott | thanks so much for the help | 01:06 |
| Shadow__X | yup | 01:13 |
| Shadow__X | so yeah do that i will most likely be here i have no issue helping you set it up | 01:13 |
| Shadow__X | i really like mythtv | 01:13 |
| holyscott | does it use alot of cpu while recording or runniing? | 01:25 |
| hads | Depends what you're doing | 01:32 |
| holyscott | what is your system? | 01:33 |

| newmythh | If I have multiple capture cards for Digital and Analog, does myth automaticall switch between them when I press the channel up button, or do I have to tell it? | 04:56 |
