tgm4883 | <Mysterious1> stupid mythbuntu angers me | 02:17 |
tgm4883 | nice | 02:17 |
darthanubis | right | 03:05 |
CyberKnet | superm1: I found the problem - it was recording at 480x480 and that apparently is a semi-known-problem for pvr-500 in linux | 14:31 |
CyberKnet | superm1: changed the resolution to 720x480 and it records just fine. | 14:31 |
rhpot1991 | CyberKnet: plus now everything will look better | 14:46 |
CyberKnet | rhpot1991: I did not increase the bitrate | 14:53 |
rhpot1991 | CyberKnet: no, but your are recording at a better resolution | 14:53 |
CyberKnet | pushing almost twice the number of pixels per second into the same number of bits per second... | 14:53 |
ActiVision | Does Mythbuntu support sound over DVI to HDMI with a radeon 3xxx? | 15:04 |
superm1 | sound over DVI isn't possible I thought | 15:04 |
superm1 | none of those pins are allocated for sound | 15:05 |
ActiVision | I know | 15:05 |
ActiVision | But ATI can do magic | 15:05 |
rhpot1991 | superm1: some of the ati cards have sound chips on them | 15:05 |
rhpot1991 | then it just pushes sound out of a modified dvi port that you put a hdmi converter on | 15:06 |
superm1 | then why didn't they just add an HDMI port; avoid all this confusion :) | 15:06 |
rhpot1991 | nvidia does the same thing, but you gotta wire it up to your mobo | 15:06 |
ActiVision | They are now | 15:06 |
ActiVision | Both suck anyways | 15:06 |
superm1 | ActiVision, well so if it's gonna work, then you'll have one of two options: | 15:07 |
ActiVision | But is it possible with ATI's drivers? | 15:07 |
superm1 | 1) check /proc/asound/cards | 15:07 |
superm1 | and see if there are multiple cards listed | 15:07 |
superm1 | one of them may represent your ATI card | 15:07 |
rhpot1991 | ActiVision: that I'm not sure about, I know some cards themselve can do it, not sure if its supported in linux | 15:07 |
superm1 | 2) check alsamixer (or the xfce equivalent) for an SPDIF switch | 15:07 |
superm1 | it's supported on a lot of ATI hardware, but not all | 15:07 |
ActiVision | Any way to do that without installing Mythbuntu? | 15:09 |
superm1 | you can do that all from a live cd | 15:10 |
Activated | Allright | 15:19 |
Activated | It can't boot... | 15:21 |
Activated | My TV is u | 15:22 |
Activated | just flashing the input info | 15:22 |
Activated | There it is | 15:25 |
Activated | Okay, this proc/asound/cards, where do I find it? | 15:27 |
superm1 | it's a file | 15:39 |
superm1 | open a terminal, and look for it | 15:39 |
mrand | Or you can use the file manager. In the /proc/asound directory | 15:40 |
superm1 | Yeah | 15:40 |
mishehu | superm1: I'm sorry, I forgot. did you say that lirc 0.8.6 is going to be rolled into 9.10 ? | 15:40 |
superm1 | not sure yet | 15:40 |
mrand | Doesn't it look unlikely this late in the game, and how long it has waited uncommented on? Bug #432678 | 15:42 |
Zinn | Bug 432678 in lirc (Ubuntu) "Please update LIRC to 0.8.6" [Undecided, New] http://www.launchpad.net/bugs/432678 | 15:42 |
mishehu | well I'm not sure if my remote's issue is some sort of bug in the current lirc in 9.04. | 15:43 |
=== kees_ is now known as kees | ||
mrand | mishehu: minor hope that 0.8.5 (currently in 9.10) fixes it for you | 15:44 |
Activated | And where is proc/ located? | 15:45 |
mrand | It is /proc | 15:45 |
mrand | Go to the top of your file system... root | 15:46 |
mrand | Activated: actually, you can't use a file browser to see it. Sorry. YOu need to open a terminal window/shell and type "cat /proc/asound/cards" | 15:48 |
mishehu | mrand: hope so, I've got a pinnacle media center remote that is said to be supported by lirc_mceusb2, and indeed it auotloads that module when I plug it in, but for some reason it doens't register any keypresses. | 15:49 |
Activated | It says "HDA ATI HDMI", so where can I test the sound? I can't get my mp3's working (surprisingly..) | 15:51 |
wombo | I really do hope lirc 0.8.6 does get rolled in, it will save quite a few threads in the forum with people asking questions | 16:03 |
superm1 | Activated, so that means it's a separate card | 16:05 |
superm1 | if you can disable your onboard, it should just work through that | 16:05 |
superm1 | if not, then you have to specify it with any test app | 16:05 |
Activated | I can take it out | 16:05 |
Activated | OK it's out, what now? Should it work? | 16:17 |
Activated | VLC can't see my USB stick... wtf | 16:22 |
mishehu | that would suggest that the entire system can't see your usb stick | 16:23 |

mishehu | tgm4883: hah! you guys are a day late! | 16:24 |
tgm4883 | !stab mishehu | 16:25 |
* Zinn stabs mishehu with a rusty spork. | 16:25 | |
tgm4883 | no, the topic is a day late | 16:26 |
Activated | I would still like to find out if the sound is working, though | 16:27 |
sidh | greetings gentlemen | 16:27 |
sidh | i would like to know if mythbuntu has good support for this 2 device ? | 16:28 |
sidh | 1/hauppauge nova TD 500 | 16:28 |
sidh | 2/antec veris elite LCD/IR receiver (with remote) | 16:28 |
Activated | If it's not possible just tell me.. | 16:38 |
superm1 | Activated, you should be able to just try to open a file in VLC or similar | 16:40 |
Activated | Yeah there's no sound | 16:41 |
sidh | as my HTPC has no cd/dvd drive, i use unetbootin to create a flash drive to boot for install | 16:41 |
superm1 | Activated, check in the mixer | 16:41 |
superm1 | for an IEC958 option or SPDIF | 16:41 |
sidh | but as i finished the unetbootin process, it asks me for rebooting my laptop, why ? | 16:41 |
superm1 | you might have to check it | 16:41 |
superm1 | sidh, you can also use usb-creator instead of unetbootin if that doesnt work | 16:42 |
superm1 | usb-creator is the supported method for ubuntu iso's -> usb sticks | 16:42 |
sidh | i just want to have a live usb mythbuntu | 16:42 |
Activated | Still nothing | 16:42 |
sidh | ok i aptitude install it | 16:42 |
Activated | How do I become a superuser when it's asking for a password and I never entered one?? | 16:45 |
mrand | It is your password | 16:47 |
mrand | You are in the super user group, so you can become one with your own password | 16:47 |
superm1 | well on the live disk, just press enter | 16:47 |
superm1 | there is no password set | 16:47 |
Activated | Still fails | 16:47 |
superm1 | sudo -s can get you a root shell | 16:47 |
superm1 | but su is disabled | 16:48 |
Activated | I'm trying to install the ATI driver but it says I need to be a super-user... | 16:50 |
Activated | Which apperantly I can't become? | 16:51 |
superm1 | you cant install fglrx on the live disk | 16:52 |
superm1 | you have to do a full install for it | 16:52 |
Activated | Is fclrx the one from ATI's site? | 16:53 |
superm1 | its in the hardware drivers tool and ati's site | 16:57 |
Activated | So I guess there's nothing more to do | 16:59 |
superm1 | well were you testing 9.10 or 9.04? | 17:00 |
superm1 | 9.10 beta could possibly do better than 9.04 | 17:00 |
Activated | I'm not really confedent with using a beta OS on my HTPC | 17:02 |
Activated | confident? | 17:02 |
Activated | Well, back to winxp I guenn | 17:03 |
superm1 | you can always dual boot too | 17:06 |
Activated | Why would I want to boot into an OS with no sound? | 17:07 |
sidh | superm1: i used usb-creator to create a mythbuntu flsah drive | 17:15 |
sidh | everything seems to happes ok for create the drive , but when i boot it, i get a "boot error" message | 17:16 |
sidh | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/usb-creator/+bug/277903 <- will try | 17:19 |
