| mechcozmo | hello, Mythbuntu isn't seeing the second tuner on my PVR-500 | 00:19 |
|---|---|---|
| mechcozmo | I see Tuner 1, S-Video 1, and Composite 1, then S-Video 2 and Composite 2 | 00:20 |
| mechcozmo | but no Tuner 2 | 00:20 |
| tgm4883 | mechcozmo, did you set them both up in mythtv-setup? | 00:20 |
| mechcozmo | i'm in it now | 00:20 |
| tgm4883 | you have to set it up in the tuner setup twice | 00:20 |
| mechcozmo | Capture Cards? | 00:20 |
| tgm4883 | yea | 00:20 |
| mechcozmo | I didn't see Tuner 2 in that list either | 00:21 |
| tgm4883 | second | 00:21 |
| tgm4883 | let me get into mythtv-setup so I can guide you | 00:21 |
| mechcozmo | ok, thanks | 00:21 |
| tgm4883 | mechcozmo, ok, so in capture cards, how many cards do you have listed? | 00:23 |
| mechcozmo | MPEG: /dev/video0 | 00:23 |
| tgm4883 | thats it? | 00:24 |
| mechcozmo | that's it | 00:24 |
| tgm4883 | ok | 00:24 |
| mechcozmo | when i go to New capture card | 00:24 |
| tgm4883 | go to (new capture card) | 00:24 |
| mechcozmo | and then VTV MPEG-2 encoder card | 00:24 |
| mechcozmo | under Default input, i don't see a Tuner 2 option | 00:25 |
| mechcozmo | (it's probed it as WinTV PVR 500 | 00:25 |
| mechcozmo | (unit #1) [ivtv] | 00:25 |
| tgm4883 | good, you are in there now? | 00:25 |
| tgm4883 | under "video device" you need to change that | 00:26 |
| tgm4883 | you should have a /dev/video0 and a /dev/video1 | 00:26 |
| mechcozmo | ok | 00:26 |
| mechcozmo | switched | 00:26 |
| mechcozmo | now it says Unit #2 | 00:26 |
| tgm4883 | exactly | 00:26 |
| mechcozmo | so Tuner 1 of that? | 00:26 |
| tgm4883 | yep | 00:26 |
| mechcozmo | ah, ok | 00:26 |
| mechcozmo | i thought it saw the card as one unit, with two tuners | 00:26 |
| tgm4883 | basically, the pvr-500 is 2 pvr-150s on a single card | 00:26 |
| tgm4883 | common mistake | 00:27 |
| mechcozmo | ok | 00:27 |
| mechcozmo | might be worth putting in the FAQ | 00:28 |
| tgm4883 | perhaps | 00:28 |
| mechcozmo | (i'm running 9.04; is the guide for 8.10 still good? it's the newest one on the website) | 00:28 |
| tgm4883 | yea it's fine | 00:29 |
| tgm4883 | not a whole lot is changed | 00:29 |
| tgm4883 | if you run into any issues, just ask here | 00:30 |
| mechcozmo | ok | 00:30 |
| mechcozmo | as i'm setting up the Input connections, should i have the coax plugged in? | 00:31 |
| mechcozmo | (was planning on setting it up in my workarea, then moving it over to the TV cable. it does have ethernet, though) | 00:31 |
| tgm4883 | well yea, you are going to need to scan for channels | 00:32 |
| mechcozmo | was hoping it could just read from SchedulesDirect... ok, let's see what magic we can make | 00:33 |
| mechcozmo | thanks for your help! | 00:33 |
| tgm4883 | well you should also be able to import it from SD too, but i prefer scanning | 00:34 |
| mechcozmo | it does seem more likely to work, as it'll get the sources directly from the tap, if you will | 00:35 |
| waltm | Hi all. I've been running mythbuntu 9.04 with vdpau fixes and everything was running fine till a few months ago after an update. the internal player will not play .mkv files with dts or ac3 audio (spdif passthrough) that used to play fine. mplayer plays them in stereo tho. It might be audio related but I don't know enough about how things work to figure it out. I have pasted the logs at http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com/f22a03564 as I do not know what t | 00:39 |
| tgm4883 | waltm, you are in the wrong channel. Mythbuntu does not come with VDPAU fixes. You need to find whoever made that repo available and talk to them | 00:43 |
| waltm | Ok, thanks. | 00:43 |
| thedarkone | hey all | 00:54 |

| MythbuntuGuest61 | Hi All. I was just wondering as I tore my hair out trying to find my missing RAM... The Mythbuntu 9.04 amd64 iso does not seem to be 64 bit - rather it is an i686 build. Is this correct? Is it possible to find a true 64 bit release for download? Thx DJK | 14:03 |
| rhpot1991 | MythbuntuGuest61: thats not correct | 14:07 |
| rhpot1991 | unless something went wrong, provide some information about where you got it from? | 14:08 |
| MythbuntuGuest61 | Thk for the reply. I got it from uname -a, which gives "Linux ubuntu 2.6.28-11-generic #42-Ubuntu SMP Fri Apr 17 01:57:59 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux", and it can only see 3G of my 4G RAM... (excluding graphics RAM) | 14:11 |
| rhpot1991 | Linux ultramagnus 2.6.28-11-generic #42-Ubuntu SMP Fri Apr 17 01:58:03 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux | 14:24 |
| MythbuntuGuest61 | Sorry about that delay. Were you saying that your Mythbuntu was x86_64? | 15:20 |
| rhpot1991 | yep | 15:24 |
| rhpot1991 | so where did you get your iso from? | 15:24 |
| MythbuntuGuest61 | internode mirror in Australia. Maybe it's the case I've accidentally downloaded the i386 version, which is actually i686 instead? | 15:25 |
| rhpot1991 | what is the name of the iso? | 15:29 |
| MythbuntuGuest61 | erm, can't say, I deleted it to save space after I'd burnt it :( I just checked the mirror again, and the options are i386 and amd64. I'll make an md5sum of my cd and see which it matches. Just to confirm, though, could it be the case that the i386 version is actually i686? | 15:33 |
| rhpot1991 | Linux megatron 2.6.28-11-generic #42-Ubuntu SMP Fri Apr 17 01:57:59 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux | 15:36 |
| rhpot1991 | thats the x86 | 15:36 |
| MythbuntuGuest61 | OK, that must be it then. I've accidentally downloaded the i386 iso, and then gotten confused when uname gave me i686. I've also just checked the md5sum of the CD, and it matches the i386 iso md5sum listed on the mythbuntu website. Thanks heaps for your help - I can stop scratching my head now! Thx, DJK | 15:42 |

| fluvvell | I've been reading somewhere about problems with detection of Hauppauge 250 / 250 cards in recent kernels, is there a known issue? | 22:54 |
| fluvvell | Sorry, more the correct drivers rather than detection | 22:54 |
