superm1tritium, rhpot1991 was just asking about the hdhr gui app, ever get that packaged up yet?03:14
tritiumsuperm1: no, sorry.  My daughter is 3 months old, and I've been taking some paternity time off.03:15
superm1tritium, ah okay.  can you post what you've got to a bzr branch then in case anyone else wants to pick it up?03:16
tritiumsuperm1: let me see what I can do in the next few days03:16
superm1ok thanks03:17
rhpot1991been a while but installing it wasn't too hard so packaging shouldn't be all that difficult03:17
tritiumIt'll require changes to the existing hdhomerun_config package, to split out the library which the new gui will link to.03:18
superm1could just cheat and make it depend on the single binary package03:18
superm1:>03:18
tritiumAh, possibly.  ;)03:18
superm1and if some other application decides that it wants that library too, then do the formal splitting up and what not03:19
tritiumI didn't think that would be allowed.  It's a nice option.03:20
superm1well at least for the time being to get it in a ppa and working it's somethign to do03:22
superm1for going into the archive, the Right thing should be done03:22
tritiumOK.03:22
tritiumSorry I've been a bit out of the loop lately.03:22
tritiumGood night.03:26
superm1no prob, cya03:28

=== bryan_ is now known as resno
resnowhat is a recommended tuner card that has an "internal splitter" can run two feeds off one cable...14:54
rhpot1991resno: HD/digital?14:54
resnorhpot1991: the feed wont be hd/digital.. but i am open to standard and hd14:55
resnorhpot1991: i found a card tuner card i like, but i am unsure about linux drivers14:56
rhpot1991resno: most of us use HDHR, but that wont help you with analog14:56
rhpot1991analog is kinda dead now anyways14:57
resnoi figure. i have an hdtv, but wont be hd feed from the cable line15:00
rhpot1991so dual analog, a pvr-500 will do15:02
rhpot1991but they are no longer made, so you will have to find one used15:02
resnois there a way to take an analog feed and make it hd? or at least full screen on my tv?15:04
superm1you can change the fill behavior15:05
superm1it's in the menu while you are playing back15:05
resnowhats the best way to check if a tuner card will work in linux?15:09
superm1Try It :P15:10
resnosuperm1: i dont want to buy it and then it doesnt work...15:10
superm1resno, oh didn't realize you didn't already have it15:10
superm1linuxtv.org is a good started then15:11
rhpot1991googling the tuner's name + linux normally will get you a good feel about the headaches ahead15:11
resnorhpot1991: ah, thanks...15:12
resnoi was looking at this card: AVerMedia AVerTVHD Duet PCTV tuner (A188) MTVHDDUET15:12
superm1if you are looking around at HD tuners, as rhpot1991 was mentioning the HDHR is the way to go15:13
superm1you do get HD channels in the clear generally w/ cable even if you dont subscribe to an HD service15:13
resnosuperm1: in the clear?15:20
rhpot1991resno: unencrypted15:21
resnorhpot1991: is there anyway to find out? can i connect my hdtv and see if anything comes through?15:22
rhpot1991resno: if you have a HD tunner in it15:22
superm1resno, see if your HDTV supports QAM tuning15:24
Shadow__Xrhpot1991: http://www.silicondust.com/hdhomerun/channels_us15:36
Shadow__Xcheck there for channels15:36
superm1i still wonder how they do that.  they can't possibly have HDHR's posted all around the US can they?15:37
Shadow__Xsuperm1: yeah because months ago they didnt have my area15:39
Shadow__Xso its just there are more and more hdhr users15:39
superm1Shadow__X, wait a minute... so you mean to tell me that data is submitted by my HDHR?15:39
superm1like it's phoning home and giving them screenshots...?15:39
Shadow__Xi think there is an option on the windows side15:40
superm1wow.15:40
Shadow__Xso allow the upload15:40
Shadow__Xto *15:40
Shadow__Xif i had one i would want to share the info15:40
superm1that's a genius plan for them15:40
rhpot1991I thought it was user submitted15:56
rhpot1991it looks like I might have new channels available15:57
resnosuperm1: i have done a bit of research on the hd channels and it appears they use some sort of encrpytion..16:01
superm1resno, not all of them will generally16:02
resnoand the hd channels dont come in full sized, sd does for some reason16:02
superm1you can get usually 3-8 or so16:02
resnois there a video card that supports a cable card?16:16
Shadow__Xno in linux16:20
Shadow__Xnot*16:20
rhpot1991hmmmm he is gone17:24
