[00:07] anyone here? [01:26] rhpot1991, yes ati graphics, x800gt [12:25] looking for help with setting up a slave backend mounting the mythtv directory from the Master BE. i have conflicting guides as far as which folders i should share from the mbe. can anyone help? === _Mazga is now known as Mazga [13:38] hi, im getting a blank screen when i run mythtv-setup or mythfronend + others, in the terminal i get badmatch error's... [13:40] http://pastebin.ca/1464799 [13:42] http://pastebin.ca/1464801 [14:06] i found a possible fix. but don't know what to do... [14:06] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=700107 [14:08] tripppy: from the release notes (http://www.mythbuntu.org/9.04/Release_notes) [14:08] bug 341898 [14:08] Bug 341898 in mythtv "MythTV Frontend does not work with RADEON DRI" [Unknown, Invalid] http://www.launchpad.net/bugs/341898 [14:21] ok. thanks. so if i change to a nvidia card. it should work? [14:27] read the comments there are ways to work around it [14:40] im a noob. i read all that. i didnt really see a fix, that was clear [14:42] Good morning! [16:50] my cpu usage is low..so don't get why its so choppy [16:53] playback profiles? [16:53] yeah..i just tried all of them [16:53] best result is CPU++ [16:54] but still choppy [16:54] not as smooth as I had with the onboard ATI x2100 [16:54] didn't see your original complaint anywhere [16:56] 10:53:14 AM) tmkt: Morning... bought a motherboard last week that had ATI x2100 chipset on it... buggy drivers but the video was smooth when It worked - so instead I went and bought PCI Geforce 6200 - now I can't get smooth HD, from what I read before getting the 6200, was it would work fine, unfortunatly, that's not the case..any ideas? [16:56] HD video is the problem [17:00] last thing I want to do is go get another video card [17:03] sure you have closed source drivers enabled? [17:03] 6200 should be good enough [17:04] yeah [17:04] xorg is drivers 'nvidia' [17:05] nvideo-1.80 [17:06] is your cpu high enough for HD? [17:06] PCI Geforce 6200 w/256mb ram [17:06] !pastebin | tmkt [17:06] tmkt: when pasting more than 5 lines of data please use http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com so you don't flood the channel. Then please post the link in the channel. [17:06] throw your xorg.conf in there [17:06] k [17:06] I'll be heading to lunch shortly, but maybe someone else can poke at it if I'm gone [17:07] http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com/m13016528 [17:08] AMD ATHLON X2 7750 [17:10] another odd thing I noticed is if I'm recording..i can stil watch other channels..didn't think I'd be able to do that [17:10] but right now only 2 channels are available [17:10] multirec maybe [17:11] whereas when I'm not recording I can access 20 channels [17:11] sounds like it [17:11] Option "AddARGBVisuals" "True" [17:11] Option "AddARGBGLXVisuals" "True" [17:11] I have in my device section as well [17:11] k..adding them [17:13] this box I have Option "NVAGP" "1" [17:13] , forget why I have that [17:14] that is for AGP video card though isn't it? [17:14] guess it doesn't auto detect with EDID properly for you? [17:14] ya, I was just thinking out loud [17:15] what about that module glx stuff should I get rid of that? [17:15] what is EDID? [17:16] if supported it should just auto detect everything from your TV [17:16] ah I'm guessing it does [17:16] just starting putting more info in there..when I bring up the nvideo-settings tool [17:17] it knows eveyrhint about my tv it seems [17:17] should be able to just have a minimul config and let it detect the rest [17:17] http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com/m1394ddbd [17:17] like so [17:22] k [17:22] trying that xorg [17:23] rebooting [17:25] sedems a little better what profile should I try? [18:19] should I try compiling mythtv? [18:22] morning all [18:24] morning/afternoon to you sir [18:24] I have a package dependency problem. [18:27] I installed kompozer-dev and build-dep mozilla, now i have dependency problem The following packages have unmet dependencies: libnss3-dev: Depends: libnspr4-dev but it is not installed AND xulrunner-1.9-dev: Depends: libnspr4-dev but it is not installed. If i apt-get -f install, I get "dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/libnspr4-dev_4.7.3-0ubuntu2_amd64.deb (--unpack): trying to overwrite `/usr/share/aclocal/nspr.m4', [18:27] any ideas on what to try next? [18:28] I also tried sudo dpkg --configure -a === MythbuntuGuest43 is now known as goldfish [18:29] autoclean and anything else I could find in ubuntu forums. Is there a way to remove packages installed via apt-get install build-deps "blah" === goldfish is now known as vissie [18:31] yes you can uninstall with apt-get [18:31] hold on [18:31] apt-get remove packagename --> uninstall package [18:31] apt-get remove packagename --purge --> uninstall en remove files [18:33] its my first time to install Mythbuntu - Just a quick question. What can the reason be that the "Channel Scanner" button is disabled? === goldfish[h] is now known as vissie[SA] [18:40] !help [18:40] !help For a complete list of my knowledge visit: http://www.baablogic.net/Zinn.cgi Other available commands: !status, !about, !bug [bug_number]. [18:54] days of fighting and almost 100% satisfied with mythtv...just the HD video performance is annoying me [18:54] would downgrading the nvidia drivers from 1.8 to 1.73 help? [19:01] or should I be looking at Modeline for a solution? === gbutters is now known as gbutters_work === gbutters_work is now known as gbutters === gbutters is now known as gbutters_work [19:33] tmkt: I don't much care for modlines [19:34] hmm [19:34] and with that cpu/card combo I'd guess you'd want normal playback profile [19:34] cpu++ or slim may be ok as well [19:34] ok...yeah..right now none of the profiles are making much of a difference [19:35] tried mythdora, mythbuntu... right now just using intrepid + mythtv, had jaunty and mythtv yesterday [19:35] but all giving the same problem [19:35] so right now I'm about to reboot with the 1.73 drivers [19:35] don't see that helping [19:36] also about to try this [19:36] sudo leafpad /etc/X11/XvMCConfig (replace with libXvMCNVIDIA_dynamic.so.1) [19:37] the only time I've had it perfect was with the Intrepid + on board ATI x2100 card [19:37] b ut the drivers on that were buggy, and the video playback wasn't stable.. [19:38] it was smooth, but would crash mythtv out of nowhere, or display dual images [19:38] so I did a adys worth of research.and it seemed like the geforce 6200 would be a great card for this [19:38] you shouldn't need XvMC with that CPU [19:39] yeah..the CPU is always at 10% [19:39] its barely getting a workout [19:39] using DVI->HDMI [19:40] check the logs for any useful information? [19:40] !logs [19:40] 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. [19:40] can't be an IO issues, or network issue or anything? [19:45] all on one machine [19:45] should I enable compiz instead of metacity? [19:46] things seem faster with compiz renabled [19:46] compiz is useless there, and IIRC may cause some issues [19:49] yeah [19:49] didn't make a difference [19:51] checking logs [19:51] 2009-06-18 14:51:19.439 [mpegvideo_xvmc @ 0x7fd50219be70]get_buffer() failed (1 1073741824 2 (nil)) [19:51] 2009-06-18 14:51:19.439 AFD Error: Unknown decoding error [19:52] that's about it [19:59] 42% cpu now [20:00] hmm..choppy audio when osd is on [20:00] Hmm [20:01] shit [20:01] tmkt: Please watch your language. [20:01] its working now [20:01] kinda..osd is causing choppy sound [20:01] but HD video is smooth right now [20:01] tmkt: with XvMC? [20:02] I'm back on nvidia-1.8 [20:02] : sudo leafpad /etc/X11/XvMCConfig (replace with libXvMCNVIDIA_dynamic.so.1) [20:02] with that [20:02] grey OSD? [20:02] yeah [20:02] grey osd [20:04] ok hmmm, you shouldn't need XvMC with that CPU, and choppyness with the OSD normally occurs with an underpowered CPU [20:04] ever annoying [20:04] what version of ubuntu? [20:04] 8.10 [20:04] is this live tv or recordings? [20:05] live tv [20:05] try recordings [20:05] recordings are fine too [20:05] :D [20:05] once upon a time there was a bug where live tv didn't choose playback profiles correctly and made HD not play right [20:05] you might be hitting that bug [20:06] something weird had happened too [20:06] something happened to my settings [20:06] I had to go back into general and setup my audio settings [20:06] I believe the patch was included in the weekly builds, I have no idea if yours would have it or not at this point [20:06] I've got the weekly fixes [20:06] my audio settings went back to stereo [20:06] so put them back to 5.1 and passthrough [20:06] and all good [20:06] what is the grey OSD I remember reading about that during my searches today [20:07] you get it when you are using XvMC [20:07] basically the driver doesn't support colored textures there [20:08] ah..ok..so how do I disable xvmc [20:08] Settings -> Playback ->Profiles? [20:11] another question..when I'm looking at the listings guide [20:11] if I hit OK [20:11] it brings up info about the show, and recordings options [20:11] how do I get it to just go to the channel [20:12] undo the libXvMCNVIDIA_dynamic.so.1 change, or pick a playback provile that doesn't have it [20:13] not sure about the guide sorry, ask in #mythtv-users [20:14] yeah..CPU+ works [20:14] probably due to the libX thing [20:14] I tried Normal profile [20:14] and it because choppy again [20:14] seems like I need th libX [20:14] vmcn.. [20:19] thank you sir [20:23] no problem, glad you got it working in the end [20:30] yeah..23.5% CPU usage right now [20:31] with HD golf on [20:31] gets choppy when any OSD stuff happens, but other then that all good [20:33] you can enable fading effects for the OSD, might cut down on that some [20:33] prob want to make sure that opengl is disabled for it as well [20:34] yes..the fadding in/out of the osd is a pain [20:58] pvrusb2 from http://www.isely.net/pvrusb2/pvrusb2.html (included with recent kernels). (from kernel 2.6.???) [21:05] how can i tell which recording is which in the recordings directory [21:19] yeah.. [21:19] that sucks
