[03:37] Linux newb. I installed Linux Mint. I then installed the mythbuntu package. However, I'm having trouble installing the drivers for my Hauppage WinTV-1600. Also, how do I get back to the Mint desktop. [04:19] with mencoder, how do i rip a DVD raw, I have the disk, and I am setting up a mythTV box, I want no compression, just raw video [04:22] Try #mplayer [04:23] no responses [04:23] =( [04:23] mythtv can import DVDs I believe [04:24] i didnt see that option... will look into [05:10] is there anyone in here who knows how to setup VDPAU support with .21 who would be kind of to help me out? [06:41] anyone know the status of cablecard and charter? === superm1 changed the topic of #ubuntu-mythtv to: CableCARD support now available, see http://www.mythbuntu.org/cablecard for details :: Mythbuntu 8.10 Now Released http://www.mythbuntu.org/8.10/release :: Come test Mythbuntu 9.04 Beta http://www.mythbuntu.org/9.04/beta :: See our website at http://www.mythbuntu.org for release and support information :: Paste logs @ http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com Please stick around for people to answer your question. Test new features here http://ubuntuforu [06:45] i knew it was a fucking joke [08:44] I broke my mythweb/apache [08:51] Can somebody tell me what "-service" option in "mythfrontend -service" means? [08:52] I am trying to start frontend in another screen, but everything after -service is ignored [08:52] Yeah, you'll want mythfrontend.real [08:54] Setting up mythexport (1.99.4-0ubuntu1~ppa11) ... [08:54] ln: creating symbolic link `./video': File exists [08:54] I should use mythfrontend.real -display :0.1 instead mythfrontend? [08:54] nasevz: mythfrontend is a wrapper script, you can read it to see what it does [08:54] ok, thnks [09:05] rhpot1991, mythexport's coonfig page is broken for me atm [12:09] hi guys. a question. which kernel is in the different mythbuntu livecds? [12:09] i would need the 2.6.29 one.. [13:34] darthanubis: I have a fix for the symlink issue, I need to test a few other things before I push it though [13:34] darthanubis: pastebin your apache error as to the config page and I'll look into that [14:14] what is the su password for mythbuntu? [14:25] Ymse1: su is disabled by default, use sudo [14:25] oki [14:26] Do you have any idea why I can't boot after instaling the Mythbuntu CD? [14:31] Ymse1: grub screwed up? Gonna need to be more specific than "can't boot" [14:33] Well I can't even get the tree structure to match what is should been. [14:35] df /boot show one aufs Hardrive..... [15:54] rhpot1991, I resolved it. I broke my apache2 [15:55] darthanubis: ok good [15:59] guys, do you know which kernel is shipped with the different mythbuntus? [16:00] ChinoChano, its the same kernel with that line of ubuntu release [16:00] so 9.04 is 2.6.28, 8.10 is 2.6.27, 8.04 is 2.6.24 [16:02] ok. i think i would need the 2.6.29... but maybe on the 2.6.28 I would find what I m looking for... anyone using it could tell me? (thanks superm1 ) [16:04] ChinoChano, it's possible to backport patches from 2.6.29 if necessary too [16:04] you are best off asking in #ubuntu-kernel or kernel-team@lists.ubuntu.com to get your patch backported [16:06] ok. but could you have a look at the 2.6.28 (if you have it) and look for WideView support? [16:07] more precisely:WideView WT-200U and WT-220U (pen) DVB-T USB2.0 support (Yakumo/Hama/Typhoon/Yuan [16:07] is this avail in 2.6.28? [16:28] ChinoChano, i'm really not that familiar with the internals of the code for that [16:28] you'll want to ask the kernel guys [16:29] ok no pb. i should find a kernel changelog to know what is inside... [16:42] hello. [16:42] i managed to install mythbuntu. [16:42] i have a question. [16:42] how can i prevent loading mythtvbackend and frontend at startup? [16:44] uh thats the purpose of mythbuntu [16:44] i only make "cat /dev/video0 > file.mpg" to record my old vhs recordings with pvr-150. [16:44] i installed mythbuntu because i knew it has great pvr-150 support. [16:44] install was easy. [16:44] great distribution. [16:45] uh you can install whats needed for the pvr-150 on ubuntu [16:45] its just ivtv [16:45] i never used ubuntu before. [16:45] i use suse since 9 years. [16:45] so install ivitv on suse [16:46] or just get the driver from linuxtv [16:46] http://www.linuxtv.org/repo/ [16:46] no. i've old suse 10.0 installed, everythin runs great, but not pvr-150. bad ivtv driver there. [16:47] i don't want to make upgrade to newest suse release. [16:47] goto that side you can install the driver [16:47] i'm happy with mythbuntu on separate pc. [16:48] i will let it so. [16:49] put it would be better for me, if mythtvbackend and frontend weren't starting automatically. [16:50] now frontend starts and i close it manually. [16:50] "cat /dev/video0 > file.mpg" is easier better for me than making a schdedule recording. [16:51] why there isn't just a button "start recording with default profile now" in mythtv? [16:53] that's why i use "cat /dev/video0 > file.mpg" in terminal. [16:58] i'm trying now to get nfs working. [16:59] how to load nfs in mythbuntu? [16:59] i mean nfc-client. [17:00] in suse i have to make entry in /etc/fstab and then "/etc/init.d/nfs restart". [17:01] is it the same in mythbuntu? [17:02] i want that file.mpg from "cat /dev/video0 > file.mpg" is directly written to a partition on another machine with nfs-server. [17:03] hello highzeth. [17:03] do you know nfs-client on mythbuntu? [17:30] tobi. [19:46] Is the ATI TV Wonder Cablecard box dual tuner or single or how does it work? [19:49] r3z, have you tested the software yet? [19:50] r3z, all of the specs and information are in the deb [19:50] I dont have a box yet. [19:50] I am looking at maybe purchasing one ;) [19:50] r3z, the software will explain, you dont need a box yet [19:50] its just spec [19:51] Sweet! [19:51] Alrighty. I can use it then ;) [19:51] have you downloaded the deb yet? [19:51] * r3z goes off to buy one.... [19:51] Ya. [19:52] Just installed it. Checking it out. [19:52] Good :) [19:52] * foxbuntu looks around and decides to go back to hiding [19:54] not nearly the volume to the site today I was hoping for...but not bad still [19:54] 2100ish hits [19:57] How does Comcast broadcast its digital TV signals? [19:57] Anyone know? [20:00] r3z, Comcast converted to CADIE as of yesterday, its now all handled with AutoPilot [20:00] Schweet! [20:02] r3z, what exactly do you want to know about it? [20:03] Is there a tuner card I can buy to get the channels over 100? I do not have any premium channels only want some of the digital channels. Don't know if its possible yet or not. [20:03] r3z, via RG6 (coax?) [20:34] foxbuntu, yes. [20:40] r3z, not going to happen, digital channels are encrypted [20:41] r3z, thus the "cableCARD" [20:41] Ya. [20:41] Figured as much :( [20:41] r3z, you can use a STB from your local cable co and then grab it with any number of tuners [20:41] Ya but that is a PITA. [20:42] r3z, also when Myth .22 is out (likely all the support will be in Mythbuntu 9.10) the HDPVR will be able to capture HD channels via you HD STB's [20:42] r3z, its what it is [20:42] Ya [20:43] r3z, also...you could pickup a ready to use unit when they go on sale: http://www.foxmediasystems.com ;) [20:44] * foxbuntu waits for hads to poke fun at his self promoting [20:44] ;) [20:47] r3z, im actually beta testing what I think I am going to be selling now...its pretty exciting to finally be getting to this point [20:47] I'm setting up Ubuntu for later instaling MythTV....how is it recommenden to partition the Harddrive? [20:48] Ymse1, any way you like :) [20:48] Ymse1, personally I have a mount point called /mythtv (but thats LVM) where all my recordings and such reside [20:49] Ymse1, the defaulted guided install on the Ubuntu disk works just fine however [20:52] foxbuntu........but the default make all in one partittion??? [20:53] have thought about making it like following after reading different forums: [20:53] /dev/sda1 - ext3 -Mount point / - 5GB [20:54] . /dev/sda5 - SWAP - 3 GB [20:55] . /dev/sda6/ - xfs - mount point /home - 110GB [21:11] Ymse1, no it makes three partitions by default / /var [21:12] Ymse1, you dont want /home to be the big one [21:12] Ymse1, that configuration would not work [21:12] foxbuntu: I found out, but thx anyway.....but still instaling so will have plenty more to bother you with :) [21:13] I'm just hoping that Ubuntu will boot from the HD after instalation, because the Mythbuntu live CD did not.......... [21:15] and noooo................I still wont boot from the bloody Hardrive.......... [21:33] foxbuntu you spammer :) [21:34] hads, there you are...took you long enough [21:34] ;) [21:34] * hads just woke up [21:34] slacker.. [21:34] lol [21:49] Oki......problem har been localized................I need to reset the master boot record.......... [23:12] hi I am running mythbuntu jaunty after, I have problems to run the frontend and mythtv-setup, whenever I start it, the gui either doesnt appear or is all black, the PC reacts on Alt+F2 thought (ATI card) is this a known problem or should I tell someone?
