| Blz | Ok I'm having a lot of trouble getting live TV to work. My setup is as follows --> Digital Cable to SetTop Box, STB to PVR150 (MCE) over composite, composite video out. I did a channel scan with irsend as my external channel change command (i'm using an IR blaster) and that seemed to pick up a bunch of channels. The problem is that when I go into the frontend and select Watch Live TV, the screen goes blank for 1-2 seconds and then | 00:41 |
|---|---|---|
| Blz | returns to the main menu... any ideas? | 00:41 |
| Blz | my STB also has a coax out if that mgiht work better, but foxbuntu suggested I stick with coax | 00:42 |
| Blz | I"ll be around so if someone has an answer, could you PM me? | 01:26 |
| tgm4883 | Blz, we need logs | 02:15 |
| tgm4883 | !logs | Blz | 02:15 |
| Zinn | Blz: MythTV logs are stored in /var/log/mythtv/ You can use mythbuntu-log-grabber from the Applications menu to automatically post the most relevant logs to our pastebin. | 02:15 |
| Blz | tgm4883: which logs do you need? | 02:53 |
| Blz | oh wait... | 02:54 |
| Blz | no, i guess my question applies... any logs in particular? | 02:54 |
| tgm4883 | Blz, yes, the logs that mythbuntu-log-grabber gets | 03:15 |

| linux_trojan | does Mythbuntu have a feature that works like PartitionMagic where you can install Mythbuntu on a full disk with Windows already there? | 04:56 |
| squidly | linux_trojan: there are ways to do t | 05:00 |
| squidly | i would check in #ubuntu first (because that is what mythbuntu is based off of) | 05:00 |
| linux_trojan | I just talked to the guys over at #ubuntu, they say it can do it | 05:06 |
| linux_trojan | is the most recent version of mythbuntu based on the most recent version of ubuntu? | 05:06 |
| rhpot1991 | linux_trojan: I'm pretty sure the installer will walk you through resizing, if not you can just use the live environment to launch gparted and do it | 05:23 |
| rhpot1991 | there is also a gparted live cd you could use as well, to prep things ahead of time, google will find you it | 05:23 |
| linux_trojan | I am talking about non destructive repartitioning? | 05:26 |
| hads | I am asking a question? | 05:55 |
| rhpot1991 | hads: now you have to quickly leave :) | 05:58 |
| hads | heh | 06:12 |
| stiev3 | I've been considering an upgrade from my local cable service to verizon fios recently, and in my researching I happened upon a bunch of info regarding Hauppage's HD PVR. | 06:55 |
| stiev3 | in my upgrade to fios I imagine I will be losing a lot of channels as they're mostly encryped from what I read | 06:55 |
| stiev3 | is the HD PVR as sweet as I imagine... I mean it sounds like it's the solution until verizon starts actively switching off component output | 06:56 |
| stiev3 | the articles I've read were a little dated, so I'm unaware of some recent widespread countermeasure that media providers have come up with lately. | 07:00 |

| Essobi | Morning, everyone. | 14:13 |
| zurgutt | Hi folks: i got mythbuntu on 2.2ghz celeron, video is mpeg4 dvb-t and it displays jerkily, stops for half a sec every 2-3 seconds. could it be cpu is too weak? | 18:14 |
| zurgutt | this seems to be new to mythbuntu on 9.04, on 8.04 it was running smoothly.. ideas? | 18:30 |
| zeroConfDev | ummm - i am pretty sure when i install mythbuntu its suppsed to be a COLOUR logo - is this right ? on my screen its B/W | 21:08 |
| zeroConfDev | that first one where it says TRY / INSTALL / MEMTEST - off the live disk | 21:10 |
| zeroConfDev | and i remember an ORANGE bar moving under the logo back and forth... but this is b/w - BUT when i finish booting, everything is in colour.... ideas? | 21:14 |
| squidly | zeroConfDev: the theme is pretty much black and white | 21:19 |
| zeroConfDev | ok - but i do remember it with orange or is that just ubuntu ? | 21:33 |
| zeroConfDev | btw, thanks squidly | 21:33 |
| rhpot1991 | ubuntu has a lot of orange, most of mythbuntu is greyish | 21:41 |
| Lambach | I have a spare comp I'm looking to turn into a mythbuntu computer. It is a 2.8ghz with 2 gigs of ram. I have 2 free pci card slots. Any pointers on the tv tuner card I should get. | 23:50 |
| Lambach | Price range of $75-$125ish... | 23:50 |
| Lambach | Don't need anything too hard core, not looking to record a bunch of HD stuff. | 23:51 |
