| thedarkone | on a dch3200 can i use usb port to change channels? | 00:58 |
|---|---|---|
| foxbuntu | thedarkone, no | 01:11 |
| genii | Anyone know anything about Pace 551 cable boxes? Mine has firewire and p2p apparently streams (not broadcast). I've tried channels 0,1, 62,63 and some others but no luck so far. Any tips would be appreciated | 01:15 |
| yellowking | I have a HVR-1600 with MCE remote. When I hit buttons on the remote, the eye lights up and irw recognized the events, but the IRBlaster doesn't light up. | 02:28 |
| yellowking | When I run irsend manually, I can trigger the IRBlaster and control my cable box. What am I missing to associate the two? | 02:28 |
| thedarkone | foxbuntu what do i need? | 02:41 |
| foxbuntu | thedarkone, what? | 03:22 |
| foxbuntu | tgm4883, lmao | 03:34 |
| foxbuntu | tgm4883, I won't do it intentionally | 03:34 |
| MythbuntuGuest67 | Hello | 03:35 |
| MythbuntuGuest67 | I have a question... | 03:36 |
| MythbuntuGuest67 | I just installed Mythbuntu and the default user is not being created on install | 03:36 |
| MythbuntuGuest67 | I have done a search and came up nil. | 03:37 |
| MythbuntuGuest67 | Any suggestions? | 03:37 |
| tgm4883 | MythbuntuGuest67, default user? | 03:37 |
| MythbuntuGuest67 | Thanks :-) | 03:37 |
| MythbuntuGuest67 | Yeah "mythtv" | 03:37 |
| MythbuntuGuest67 | mysql user | 03:37 |
| MythbuntuGuest67 | sorry | 03:37 |
| tgm4883 | which version did you instal | 03:37 |
| MythbuntuGuest67 | 8.10 | 03:37 |
| tgm4883 | alternate or live disk? | 03:38 |
| MythbuntuGuest67 | alternate | 03:38 |
| tgm4883 | !mysql | 03:38 |
| Zinn | 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 | 03:38 |
| tgm4883 | do that ^ | 03:38 |
| tgm4883 | the mysql stuff doesn't get setup with the alt disk | 03:38 |
| MythbuntuGuest67 | Crap! | 03:38 |
| tgm4883 | which is why we don't have an alt disk anymore | 03:38 |
| MythbuntuGuest67 | Got it | 03:38 |
| tgm4883 | glad I could help ;) | 03:38 |
| MythbuntuGuest67 | Actually, I downloaded it by mistake | 03:39 |
| MythbuntuGuest67 | Maybe I should install from live disk? | 03:39 |
| MythbuntuGuest67 | What do you think? | 03:39 |
| tgm4883 | nah no biggie, I think you can fix it | 03:39 |
| tgm4883 | but either way is fine | 03:39 |
| MythbuntuGuest67 | If I run the steps from above will I be alright? Or will I run into more issue? | 03:39 |
| MythbuntuGuest67 | issue?s | 03:40 |
| tgm4883 | you should be fine | 03:40 |
| MythbuntuGuest67 | Cool | 03:40 |
| genii | The factoid should just say mysql-server since mysql-server-5.0 will become later versions | 03:40 |
| MythbuntuGuest67 | Give me a sec and I will let you know how it goes | 03:40 |
| tgm4883 | genii, you are probably right | 03:41 |
| MythbuntuGuest67 | That fixed it! Thanks!! | 03:42 |
| tgm4883 | your welcome | 03:45 |

| foxbuntu | :) | 03:51 |
| yellowking | I have a HVR-1600 with MCE remote. When I hit buttons on the remote, the eye lights up and irw recognized the events, but the IRBlaster doesn't light up. | 05:04 |
| yellowking | When I run irsend manually, I can trigger the IRBlaster and control my cable box. What am I missing to associate the two? | 05:04 |
| foxbuntu | yellowking, dont know much about them, but give this a shot: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Using_an_IR_Blaster_with_MythTV | 05:14 |
| yellowking | foxbuntu, will do, thanks | 05:37 |
| tgm4883 | a channel change script? | 05:42 |
| tgm4883 | !stab foxbuntu | 05:42 |
| * Zinn stabs foxbuntu with a WASP knife. | 05:42 | |
| foxbuntu | tgm4883, no I think he is trying to use his mce to control the actual STB | 05:42 |
| tgm4883 | didn't sound like that to me | 05:43 |
| * tgm4883 shrugs | 05:43 | |
| foxbuntu | idk | 05:43 |
| foxbuntu | maybe im wrong | 05:43 |
| tgm4883 | I thought he is just trying to change the channel on his stb | 05:43 |
| tgm4883 | yellowking, ^ | 05:43 |
| * foxbuntu claims to not know anything about channel changes scripts as well | 05:44 | |
| * tgm4883 posts references to myth-chan everywhere | 05:44 | |
| foxbuntu | lol | 05:44 |
| foxbuntu | tgm4883, there are only two people at the moment that know what that is | 05:45 |
| tgm4883 | wait till I microblog about it | 05:45 |
| foxbuntu | like anyone reads your blogs | 05:45 |
| tgm4883 | microblog | 05:46 |
| tgm4883 | and we do have followers | 05:46 |
| foxbuntu | oh you mean identi.ca? | 05:46 |
| tgm4883 | yep | 05:46 |
| foxbuntu | i swear if I get email requests for it | 05:47 |
| foxbuntu | it will be a spolier for every show you watch | 05:47 |
| foxbuntu | lol | 05:47 |
| tgm4883 | you won't get emails | 05:47 |
| * tgm4883 attaches foxbuntu's phone number to every post | 05:47 | |
| foxbuntu | yeah | 05:48 |
| foxbuntu | remember tgm4883 I get airfare cheap...so Im not afraid to come find you | 05:48 |
| tgm4883 | foxbuntu, don't forget, i'm republican, so I have plenty of guns | 05:48 |
| foxbuntu | tgm4883, im the only type of person with more guns than a republican | 05:48 |
| tgm4883 | muslim? | 05:49 |
| foxbuntu | redneck | 05:49 |
| tgm4883 | ah | 05:49 |
| yellowking | I've got live tv working, audio good-- remote can pause live video, FF and RW, change volume...but it's not changing the channel on my cable box. Do I need a channel change script? I saw some references to those, but thought there'd be some non-custom way to make it work. | 06:06 |
| yellowking | If I do irsend CH+, it changes both the cable box and mythtv | 06:08 |
| tgm4883 | yellowking, yea you need a channel change script | 06:09 |
| yellowking | Okay, cool. Is there a standard reference for that? | 06:10 |
| tgm4883 | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MythTV_External_Channel_Changer | 06:11 |
| yellowking | Great, thanks. | 06:15 |
| yellowking | guess my serial port doesn't work | 06:22 |
| yellowking | That script almost works with IRBlaster...sends the numbers, but I don't appear to have an ENTER code for a DCT2000 remote | 06:28 |
| yellowking | Heh...for me, it's MUSIC, not ENTER! | 06:39 |
| yellowking | Hmmm...I can set the channel now, but chan up and chan down don't work. | 06:53 |
| yellowking | And high channel numbers crash my front end! | 06:54 |
| yellowking | It's well-boogered up now. Feck it, I'm going t obed. | 07:38 |
| yellowking | After messing with the channel changing script, I can't get any video anymore, just static. I double checked the signal outside of myth tv, and it's good. Rebooted, checked my capture card, looks good. | 07:55 |
| yellowking | Removed the channel change script, still static. Can't "scan for channels" on my input source, seems to crash out and gives me a pop up to run mythfilldatabase | 07:58 |
| yellowking | Crud, no clue what I broke. | 08:00 |
| yellowking | Streams still work, it's the input somehow | 08:02 |
| yellowking | Tried preset tuner to channel 3 and 4, neither works | 08:08 |
| yellowking | okay. Was going into to input source, then scanning channels-- but it was giving me a different input source there by default. Replaced that with the one I'm using, ran the scan with preset tuner to channel 3, and I seem to have video back | 08:19 |
| rjmunro | Has anyone done any work on better auto detection of config for mythtv? | 13:44 |
| rjmunro | It seems that you should be able to auto-detect video capture devices, then scan the channels and try to work out where in the world you are, then choose a listing provider based on that. | 13:47 |
| Davide | Is installing mythtv on regular ubuntu the same thing as mythbuntu? Are there any advantages to installing mythbuntu? | 16:47 |
| Zanthus | I've tried doing both, and its just heaps easier using mythbuntu | 16:48 |
| Davide | what are you missing with mythbuntu? | 16:49 |
| Davide | Zanthus | 16:49 |
| Zanthus | and mythbuntu is really cut down, it only includes a xfce gui, firefox, mythtv, a couple of media players, some codecs, a text editor, a gui file manager and that's about it | 16:50 |
| Zanthus | its certainly not a full featured desktop distro | 16:50 |
| Davide | can you add those things to it? | 16:50 |
| Zanthus | yeah, it does come with a gui package manager installed so you can add those extras if you want to | 16:51 |
| Zanthus | also, the configuration mythbuntu, once you install it, is done through the gui; including adding and removing mythtv modules | 16:52 |
| Davide | Zanthus, sorry bout the 20 questions but... why was it so difficult installing mythtv from ubuntu? I'm asking becuase I already have ubuntu installed, 8.04, and I just got sound to work on the system after hours of trying... | 16:52 |
| Davide | Zanthus, I see what about when installing mythtv? | 16:52 |
| Zanthus | to be honest, it was a while ago that I last tried to set up mythtv manually | 16:54 |
| Zanthus | from memory it just took a while to get everything working together properly | 16:54 |
| Zanthus | but I can't remember specific details | 16:54 |
| Zanthus | I guess if you were to install mythtv on an existing ubuntu installation yourself you would learn more about how it works | 16:56 |
| Zanthus | if you just want it to work without delving into it too much, mythbuntu would be the way to go | 16:56 |
| Davide | ok thank you very much Zanthus | 16:59 |
| Zanthus | no, problem | 17:01 |
| Zanthus | whoops | 17:01 |
| Zanthus | minus the comma there | 17:01 |
| EvilGuru | There is a bug in the Hauppauge remote control lircd config file | 18:46 |
| EvilGuru | Back/Exit it written as Back/edit | 18:46 |
| EvilGuru | this results in bad things (tm) | 18:46 |
| pist0l-fish | hi all, is the mythbuntu website down? | 22:32 |
| * pist0l-fish is getting an echo timeout :( | 22:33 | |
| superm1 | pist0l-fish, ruh roh, it looks like it is :( | 22:33 |
| superm1 | pist0l-fish, were you looking to get an ISO of 9.04? | 22:33 |
| pist0l-fish | yeah, I was hoping someone here might have the torrent :) | 22:33 |
| superm1 | pist0l-fish, well two options. you can get the beta from cdimages.mythbuntu.org | 22:34 |
| superm1 | or a daily from cdimages.ubuntu.com/mythbuntu | 22:34 |
| superm1 | the dailies have a more improved installer | 22:34 |
| pist0l-fish | superm1: thank you | 22:35 |
| superm1 | pist0l-fish, no problem. in the future (when the website is working), do grab betas from there as it gets our counts right. grabbing them from one of the mirrors like cdimages.mythbuntu.org gets the BW count messed up | 22:35 |
| pist0l-fish | okay. Is daily-live/current/ the directory i should be looking at ? | 22:36 |
| superm1 | yeah | 22:36 |
| pist0l-fish | is that just a soft link to 20090411/ or is that a more recent version? (sorry to ask so many questions, just curious) | 22:37 |
| superm1 | it's a soft link | 22:37 |
| pist0l-fish | superm1: thank you very much for your help | 22:37 |
| superm1 | no problem pist0l-fish | 22:38 |
| yellowking | LOL...I finally have it all worked through, everything is finally working fine...and now I realize that it wasn't a 70G HD I used...it was a 10G HD!! | 22:43 |
| superm1 | haha | 22:43 |
| superm1 | that would cause a bit of frequent autoexpiration | 22:43 |
| mythman | Is it possible to run mythbuntu in virtualbox with a PCI Tuner or USB | 23:56 |
| superm1 | mythman, with usb or network tuner sure | 23:57 |
| superm1 | but i've heard video playback is suboptimal | 23:57 |
| mythman | So back end and USB Tuner should work | 23:58 |
