[01:57] Is there a way to get a visual indicator that a video file has been marked as watched? [01:58] Something I can adjust in any theme? [03:31] Is there still an option to resume where you left off playing on videos? I'm not able to find the option on the -trunk [03:32] mark them when stoppng playback [03:32] not manually [03:36] press space [03:36] I think that will mark a point on the file [03:51] yeah that's the manual way. There used to be an option to have it mark the position when stopping playback [04:16] ask in the #mythtv-users channel [04:36] I'm referring to this http://www.mythtv.org/pipermail/mythtv-users/2007-August/189504.html [04:36] I think it may be because mythcontrols is not used in the mythbuntu repos trunk [04:37] I found it [04:38] hm, not sure how I missed that before. [04:44] hey thats good [06:49] friends, 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? [10:10] 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. [12:37] 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. [13:03] I have tries setting the dir to mythtv:mythtv and chmod -R 777... nothing. [14:23] Goooood morning. [14:32] hey guys... [14:36] so i'm watch tv on my mythtv box 2 nights ago and boom it kicks back to my menu and if would appear i'm not able to watch live tv or play any videos that have [14:37] http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com/f5e1ad331 [14:37] oops... not able to watch live tv or any videos that have been recorded since then [14:37] i assume its a tuner thing but it looks like both tuners are there and still showing up [14:54] 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] I have tried setting the dir to mythtv:mythtv and chmod -R 777... nothing. [16:55] friends, 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? thanx. [17:20] 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] I have tried setting the dir to mythtv:mythtv and chmod -R 777... nothing. [18:12] superm1, I need to talk to one of the developers. I have a question about the init.d script of the ubuntu myth dist [18:16] Using the startup script my myth user is blocked from the default storage group, started with "sudo mythbackend" manually this does not happen. Bug? [18:25] sebrock, does the storage group have permissions to let the "mythtv" daemon user touch them? [18:29] superm1, I've tried both setting the storage group to "777" and mythtv:mythtv [18:29] does not work [18:29] sebrock, well what's the log messages look like? [18:30] 2009-08-19 11:09:14.753 SG(Default) Error: FindNextDirMostFree: '/var/Files/500GB/recordings' does not exist! [18:30] 2009-08-19 11:09:14.859 TFW, Error: Opening file '/var/Files/500GB/recordings/1010_20090819110913.mpg'. [18:30] eno: Permission denied (13) [18:30] 2009-08-19 11:09:14.861 TVRec(2) Error: RingBuffer '/var/Files/500GB/recordings/1010_20090819110913.mpg' not open... [18:32] superm1, so it's something with permissions, strange though because manually starting with "sudo mythbackend", there is no issue [18:32] but then again, tried even setting permissions to 777 [18:32] sebrock, did you change the permissions on everything in the directory? [18:32] or just the directory itself.. [18:32] superm1, yes [18:32] recursive [18:33] is it any way to get more debug log from the init.d script? [18:33] sebrock, yeah, you can change /etc/default/mythtv-backend [18:33] there is verbosity settings there [18:34] what about /var/Files/500GB, is that readable? [18:34] hold on, I will check it [18:34] it wont be able to chdir into /var/Files/500GB/recordings if it can't get into /var/files/500GB or /var/files [18:34] yes, on that disk I have music and video files which works fine [18:34] readable by the mythtv user i mean [18:34] it's just the LiveTV/recordings part [18:34] you might want to try "sudo su mythtv" [18:34] to log in as him temporarily [18:34] and see what you can and can't do [18:35] I tried that to... /var/Files/500GB should be set to allow read right? [18:35] it needs to be marked world readable and world executable [18:35] the whole part? [18:35] you can't chdir unless you have x perms [18:35] path* [18:36] login as that user, and try to cd /var [18:36] mmhhh ok hold on [18:36] and then cd files [18:36] etc [18:36] could not cd into 500GB [18:36] so thats it then [18:39] superm1, yes it works ow [18:40] thank you, I though it was enough with just the final part of the path [18:40] sebrock, see if you just stuck to normal paths, that wouldn't have happened ;) [18:40] superm1, actually I use a symlink from the "normal" path [18:40] but that did not work either... [18:41] someone told me symlinks are not supported... [18:41] btw, 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. [18:42] i'd expect so [18:43] right, I had a system disk crash and had to restore DB so I have had some initial problems [18:46] I also got some new strange issues wiith mythweb [18:48] it's weather, three days works fine. Current works except image is always "Unknown" and satellite does ot work at all. [18:50] Satellite works on frontend, just not server [18:52] superm1, 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/weather [18:52] might be a mythweb configuration problem [18:53] no 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] so Images are dowloade [18:54] mythweb 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-0 [18:54] I don't understand why its trying to access data/cache from webserver root [18:56] i see something similar where it's getting the directories wrong for video by one directory too [18:56] lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 30 2009-08-18 12:35 cache -> /var/cache/mythweb/image_cache [18:56] it's all right [18:56] oh I'm not alone then [18:59] thats what makes me think it's probably a configuration issue [18:59] probably just something we need added to the postinst [18:59] or changed [19:43] superm1, 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. [20:06] Hello 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] superm1, it works if apache2 is configured with a virtualhost, in that case /data/cache is infact in the root [20:07] ie. http://htpc/data/cache instead of 192.168.0.3/mythtv/data/cache [20:07] maybe register some kind of bug here? [20:15] is there anyway to check signal strength of a channel within mythtv [20:17] mythtv-setup does that in channel setup [20:17] what card do you have? it's probably better to use external tools [20:17] hauppauge hvr 1600 [20:18] ivtv card then I guess? [20:18] oops... 1800 [20:18] do: cat /var/log/syslog | grep ivtv [20:18] and tell me if you get any hits [20:19] nope [20:19] dmesg | grep video [20:20] paste the result in some pastebin and give me the adress [20:21] http://pastebin.com/d1e9090d4 [20:22] is it working at all? [20:23] haha [20:23] yeah [20:23] I think its an ivtv-card [20:24] try apt-get install ivtv-utils [20:24] in there you have some nice tools to check signal etc. [20:24] lsmod | grep ivtv show anything? [20:26] nope [20:27] im installing ivtv-utils now [20:28] funny, no ivtv driver loaded yet I found it is an ivtv-card [20:28] you can try it, if it does not work try to find out what driver you have for you card first [20:28] only have 1 card... [20:29] I think you'll find what you need at http://linuxtv.org [20:29] didnt load any drivers... mythbuntu detected it [20:29] sure it has drivers loaded if it works :P [20:29] i mean i know drivers are running... just saying i didnt load them [20:29] hehe [20:30] paste you whole 'lsmod' in pastebin [20:30] soon as this package finishing installing... taken a min [20:30] you'll need the right tools for this driver. I thought it was ivtv but it seems to be something else [20:30] I think IVTV has support for it though [20:34] http://pastebin.com/d584d5ff1 [20:35] yeah you got v4l drivers [20:36] so ivtv should work then [20:37] dont think so, its for the ivtv driver [20:37] you can remove it [20:37] (or check if it works first) [20:37] check out: v4l-conf [20:37] maybe that can help [20:38] all this just to find signal strengh... ouch [20:38] if it works why do you need to check signal strenght? [20:40] dig. clear qam channels are tiling [20:40] seeing errors in the logs that look its signal related... at least thats what google tells me [20:41] there is something called v4l-tools [20:41] but not in repo [20:41] Google for it and you can download and check [20:41] cool... i'll check it out... thanks man [20:41] otherwise I think mythtv-setup can check signal strenght in setup [20:42] sorry I can't help you further [20:42] sall good [20:42] cool [20:56] Anyone here working Hauppauge WinTV HVR-1600 [20:56] if so how is it? [21:17] Hello 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? [21:31] sebrock, yeah so definitely a configuration bug [21:31] can you please file the details? [21:35] superm1, as a bug? [21:52] sure thing [22:32] superm1, I see it is already reported #270934 [22:51] bug 270394 [22:51] Bug 270394 in rhythmbox (Ubuntu) "Segfault when starting MMS stream" [Medium, Invalid] http://www.launchpad.net/bugs/270394 [22:51] you sure? [22:51] oh my bad [22:51] bug 270934 [22:51] Bug 270934 in mythbuntu "Mythweb looking in wrong directory for weather map" [Low, Confirmed] http://www.launchpad.net/bugs/270934 [23:44] i'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. [23:48] video driver ? [23:51] gregL_, 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. [23:53] opengl? [23:53] or QT [23:57] i have an nvidia geforce 6200 using nvidia driver 180.44 would the video configuration make just the program guide slow?
