orificiumIs there a way to get a visual indicator that a video file has been marked as watched?01:57
orificiumSomething I can adjust in any theme?01:58
orificiumIs there still an option to resume where you left off playing on videos?  I'm not able to find the option on the -trunk03:31
orificiummark them when stoppng playback03:32
orificiumnot manually03:32
wombopress space03:36
womboI think that will mark a point on the file03:36
orificiumyeah that's the manual way.  There used to be an option to have it mark the position when stopping playback03:51
womboask in the #mythtv-users channel04:16
orificiumI'm referring to this http://www.mythtv.org/pipermail/mythtv-users/2007-August/189504.html04:36
orificiumI think it may be because mythcontrols is not used in the mythbuntu repos trunk04:36
orificiumI found it04:37
orificiumhm, not sure how I missed that before.04:38
wombohey thats good04:44
MythbuntuGuest43friends, new mythbuntu user, installed yesterday. when loading music, i receive the following error message "mythmusic has encountered the following error: aacdecoder: failed to open input" any suggestions to resolve this?06:49
sebrockI have a strange issue. Starting mythtv-backend from init.d I get no access to my default storage group. Starting it from bash with sudo mythbackend gives me the access. I can't figure out this one.10:10

McNeveroops... not able to watch live tv or any videos that have been recorded since then14:37
McNeveri assume its a tuner thing but it looks like both tuners are there and still showing up14:37
sebrock_I have a strange issue. Starting mythtv-backend from init.d I get no access to my default storage group. Starting it from bash with sudo mythbackend gives me the access. I can't figure out this one.14:54
sebrock_I have tried setting the dir to mythtv:mythtv and chmod -R 777... nothing.14:54

sebrock_I have a strange issue. Starting mythtv-backend from init.d I get no access to my default storage group. Starting it from bash with sudo mythbackend gives me the access. I can't figure out this one.17:20
sebrock_I have tried setting the dir to mythtv:mythtv and chmod -R 777... nothing.17:20
sebrocksuperm1, I need to talk to one of the developers. I have a question about the init.d script of the ubuntu myth dist18:12
sebrockUsing the startup script my myth user is blocked from the default storage group, started with "sudo mythbackend" manually this does not happen. Bug?18:16
superm1sebrock, does the storage group have permissions to let the "mythtv" daemon user touch them?18:25
sebrocksuperm1, I've tried both setting the storage group to "777" and mythtv:mythtv18:29
sebrockdoes not work18:29
superm1sebrock, well what's the log messages look like?18:29
sebrock2009-08-19 11:09:14.753 SG(Default) Error: FindNextDirMostFree: '/var/Files/500GB/recordings' does not exist!18:30
sebrock2009-08-19 11:09:14.859 TFW, Error: Opening file '/var/Files/500GB/recordings/1010_20090819110913.mpg'.18:30
sebrockeno: Permission denied (13)18:30
sebrock2009-08-19 11:09:14.861 TVRec(2) Error: RingBuffer '/var/Files/500GB/recordings/1010_20090819110913.mpg' not open...18:30
sebrocksuperm1, so it's something with permissions, strange though because manually starting with "sudo mythbackend", there is no issue18:32
sebrockbut then again, tried even setting permissions to 77718:32
superm1sebrock, did you change the permissions on everything in the directory?18:32
superm1or just the directory itself..18:32
sebrocksuperm1, yes18:32
sebrockrecursive18:32
sebrockis it any way to get more debug log from the init.d script?18:33
superm1sebrock, yeah, you can change /etc/default/mythtv-backend18:33
superm1there is verbosity settings there18:33
superm1what about /var/Files/500GB, is that readable?18:34
sebrockhold on, I will check it18:34
superm1it wont be able to chdir into /var/Files/500GB/recordings if it can't get into /var/files/500GB or /var/files18:34
sebrockyes, on that disk I have music and video files which works fine18:34
superm1readable by the mythtv user i mean18:34
sebrockit's just the LiveTV/recordings part18:34
superm1you might want to try "sudo su mythtv"18:34
superm1to log in as him temporarily18:34
superm1and see what you can and can't do18:34
sebrockI tried that to... /var/Files/500GB should be set to allow read right?18:35
superm1it needs to be marked world readable and world executable18:35
sebrockthe whole part?18:35
superm1you can't chdir unless you have x perms18:35
sebrockpath*18:35
superm1login as that user, and try to cd /var18:36
sebrockmmhhh ok hold on18:36
superm1and then cd files18:36
superm1etc18:36
sebrockcould not cd into 500GB18:36
sebrockso thats it then18:36
sebrocksuperm1, yes it works ow18:39
sebrockthank you, I though it was enough with just the final part of the path18:40
superm1sebrock, see if you just stuck to normal paths, that wouldn't have happened ;)18:40
sebrocksuperm1, actually I use a symlink from the "normal" path18:40
sebrockbut that did not work either...18:40
sebrocksomeone told me symlinks are not supported...18:41
sebrockbtw, is this line produced by the above issue: 2009-08-19 11:08:17.371 AutoExpire: ERROR: Filesystem Info cache is empty, unable to calculate necessary parameters.18:41
superm1i'd expect so18:42
sebrockright, I had a system disk crash and had to restore DB so I have had some initial problems18:43
sebrockI also got some new strange issues wiith mythweb18:46
sebrockit's weather, three days works fine. Current works except image is always "Unknown" and satellite does ot work at all.18:48
sebrockSatellite works on frontend, just not server18:50
sebrocksuperm1, get this in apache2 log: [Wed Aug 19 19:51:37 2009] [error] [client 192.168.0.116] File does not exist: /var/www/data, referer: http://192.168.0.3/mythweb/weather18:52
superm1might be a mythweb configuration problem18:52
sebrockno this is it... If I try to open one of the images that does not show, for example thr satellite I get: The requested URL /data/cache/EuropeSatellite-0 was not found on this server.18:53
sebrockso Images are dowloade18:53
sebrockmythweb can't access http://192.168.0.3/data/cache/EuropeSatellite-0 but it can access http://192.168.0.3/mythweb/data/cache/EuropeSatellite-018:54
sebrockI don't understand why its trying to access data/cache from webserver root18:54
superm1i see something similar where it's getting the directories wrong for video by one directory too18:56
sebrocklrwxrwxrwx 1 root root   30 2009-08-18 12:35 cache -> /var/cache/mythweb/image_cache18:56
sebrockit's all right18:56
sebrockoh I'm not alone then18:56
superm1thats what makes me think it's probably a configuration issue18:59
superm1probably just something we need added to the postinst18:59
superm1or changed18:59
sebrocksuperm1, thing is I had made it work on my previous installation. I had an 'aha'-moment when I discovered what was wrong. Now I can't remember.19:43
PD4VDWHello everybody.. I used an online manual for adding a dutch XMLTV provider.. but when i go to video sources -> add sources, my added grabber is not listed.. What's te problem? Can anybody help me out off the fire?20:06
sebrocksuperm1, it works if apache2 is configured with a virtualhost, in that case /data/cache is infact in the root20:06
sebrockie. http://htpc/data/cache instead of 192.168.0.3/mythtv/data/cache20:07
sebrockmaybe register some kind of bug here?20:07
McNeveris there anyway to check signal strength of a channel within mythtv20:15
sebrockmythtv-setup does that in channel setup20:17
sebrockwhat card do you have? it's probably better to use external tools20:17
McNeverhauppauge hvr 160020:17
sebrockivtv card then I guess?20:18
McNeveroops... 180020:18
sebrockdo: cat /var/log/syslog | grep ivtv20:18
sebrockand tell me if you get any hits20:18
McNevernope20:19
sebrockdmesg | grep video20:19
sebrockpaste the result in some pastebin and give me the adress20:20
McNeverhttp://pastebin.com/d1e9090d420:21
sebrockis it working at all?20:22
McNeverhaha20:23
McNeveryeah20:23
sebrockI think its an ivtv-card20:23
sebrocktry apt-get install ivtv-utils20:24
sebrockin there you have some nice tools to check signal etc.20:24
sebrocklsmod | grep ivtv show anything?20:24
McNevernope20:26
McNeverim installing ivtv-utils now20:27
sebrockfunny, no ivtv driver loaded yet I found it is an ivtv-card20:28
sebrockyou can try it, if it does not work try to find out what driver you have for you card first20:28
McNeveronly have 1 card...20:28
sebrockI think you'll find what you need at http://linuxtv.org20:29
McNeverdidnt load any drivers... mythbuntu detected it20:29
sebrocksure it has drivers loaded if it works :P20:29
McNeveri mean i know drivers are running... just saying i didnt load them20:29
McNeverhehe20:29
sebrockpaste you whole 'lsmod' in pastebin20:30
McNeversoon as this package finishing installing... taken a min20:30
sebrockyou'll need the right tools for this driver. I thought it was ivtv but it seems to be something else20:30
sebrockI think IVTV has support for it though20:30
McNeverhttp://pastebin.com/d584d5ff120:34
sebrockyeah you got v4l drivers20:35
McNeverso ivtv should work then20:36
sebrockdont think so, its for the ivtv driver20:37
sebrockyou can remove it20:37
sebrock(or check if it works first)20:37
sebrockcheck out: v4l-conf20:37
sebrockmaybe that can help20:37
McNeverall this just to find signal strengh... ouch20:38
sebrockif it works why do you need to check signal strenght?20:38
McNeverdig. clear qam channels are tiling20:40
McNeverseeing errors in the logs that look its signal related... at least thats what google tells me20:40
sebrockthere is something called v4l-tools20:41
sebrockbut not in repo20:41
sebrockGoogle for it and you can download and check20:41
McNevercool... i'll check it out... thanks man20:41
sebrockotherwise I think mythtv-setup can check signal strenght in setup20:41
sebrocksorry I can't help you further20:42
McNeversall good20:42
sebrockcool20:42

neotenyi'm running mythbuntu 9.04.  works great except it takes a few minutes to open the program guide.  any idea what the issue might be? so far google hasn't returned anything on this issue.23:44
gregL_video driver ?23:48
neotenygregL_, i don't think so.  i did find one thread but i'm not convinced this it's my issue because it was working.  i'll poke around a bit more.23:51
gregL_opengl?23:53
gregL_or QT23:53
neotenyi have an nvidia geforce 6200 using nvidia driver 180.44 would the video configuration make just the program guide slow?23:57
