| hipitihop | anyone using shepherd grabber successfully ? | 00:27 |
|---|---|---|
| tmkt | what is that | 00:32 |
| hads | Australian perl grabber thingy | 00:33 |
| hads | Is there a setting that would affect the font size of the mythvideo bookmark popup? My old frontend has an unreadably small font but other frontends don't. | 00:54 |
| tmkt | for movies? | 01:05 |
| resno_ | is there a way to get the command center without install mythbunutu? like an installable program under ubunutu? | 01:41 |
| mrand | resno_, mythbuntu-control-centre package is installable on any ubuntu install. | 01:46 |
| resno_ | mrand: ok. thanks! | 01:57 |
| hipitihop | a general question regarding grabbers, are they necessary in context of digital only channels which provide their own epg ? or what is the benefit | 02:15 |
| foxbuntu | hipitihop, depends on the reliability of EPG data, also grabbers generally provide more data in advance, i.e. Schedules Direct in the US provides 14 days at a time | 03:23 |
| * hads agrees | 03:27 | |
| hads | We get now/next EIT and 7 days via grabber | 03:28 |
| foxbuntu | hads, I think I might have just had a stroke, I noticed you agreed with me | 03:34 |
| hads | heh | 03:49 |
| hads | Have I been a bit negative? I don't want to come across like some of the people in #mythtv-users :) | 03:51 |
| kaeles | does 9.10 not support being a diskless server any longer, there is no option in the MCC for it | 03:53 |
| hads | Is there not? mythbuntu-diskless-server is still a package at any rate so you could install it manually. | 03:55 |
| kaeles | ok I'll just try that | 03:56 |
| hads | ltsp-build-client, ltsp-update-image and ltsp-update-kernels are the command you want to use after that. | 03:57 |
| hads | One of the mythbuntu guys may be able to tell you how to do it easier. | 03:58 |
| kaeles | yea, I've used ltsp in a openmosix cluster once, so that part isn't too bad, I just like the ease of clicking :P | 03:58 |
| kaeles | thanks | 03:59 |
| hads | COol | 04:00 |
| kaeles | gotten in such a bad habit of using root under debian sudo always throws me off :P | 04:00 |
| kaeles | when i have some time away from school and work i plan on trying to write a dvd::rip plugin for mythbuntu so that if you have diskless clients, it uses them all in cluster mode, since I have 4 boxes around the house (1 is a roomies too though :P) | 04:02 |
| kaeles | err mythtv in general even | 04:03 |
| MythBork | stupid question, is the AMD64 build of 0.22 mythbuntu 64bit native? | 04:46 |
| MythBork | I've always used the 32 bit version in the past because I thought myth itself was still 32 bit, so being on a 64 bit system would actually slow it down | 04:46 |
| hipitihop | foxbuntu: & hads: I see, thanks. Currently mythbuntu gets around 8 days from normal digital channel epg's auto magically (no idea how that works yet) but backend always reports "Last mythfilldatabase run started on 2009-10-20 12:04 and ended on 2009-10-20 12:04. mythfilldatabase ran, but did not insert any new data into the Guide for 1 of 1 sources. This can indicate a potential grabber failure. There's guide data until 2009-10-29 05:00 (9 days). | 05:01 |
| hipitihop | " not sure if I should try and debug | 05:02 |
| neoneddy | I'm having trouble getting my files to list (ls) from an Airdisk share, using a cifs mount, I cna browse the fileds if I know what they are, however ls shows nothing | 05:20 |

| Hrym | WHats the special with Mythbuntu? :z | 14:16 |
| AliCharles | Hi, When my system, Mythbuntu 9.04 (upgraded from previous version) restarts I see a page of black and white vertical lines where the Mythbuntu logo should be. Now while this doesn't affect my system performance me in any way I would like to know what is causing this graphic crash. Any ideas? | 15:53 |
| superm1 | AliCharles, it's a bug with nvidia drivers interacting with usplash | 16:05 |
| superm1 | it's fixed in 9.10 with a new usplash | 16:05 |
| AliCharles | OK great thanks very much for your help. | 16:09 |
| Alex3nder | hi i need help setting up ivtv drivers and firmware perhaps or something to get my tv tuner card working... here are the logs and details of dmesg and lspci | 16:11 |
| Alex3nder | https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/86408 | 16:11 |
| Alex3nder | I am using ubuntu 9.10 btw... | 16:11 |
| AliCharles | I have one other query, When I rip some dvds on the native myth ripper in perfect format the file length doesn't seem to be completed recognised so when I try and search the dvd for a position it just stops at the incorrectly set marker. I can watch the film to the end without searching with no issues. any ideas? Myth 9.04 | 16:15 |
| orificium | !auto-builds | 17:47 |
| Zinn | Sorry I don't know about auto-builds | 17:47 |
| orificium | !autobuilds | 17:47 |
| Zinn | Auto builds are available for MythTV 0.21 (Stable) and MythTV Trunk 0.22 (Unstable, use at your own RISK) for Hardy (0.21 only), Intrepid, Jaunty, and Karmic (0.22 and 0.23-trunk). See http://www.mythbuntu.org/auto-builds for more info. | 17:47 |
| orificium | Something wrong with repos again? Update Manager complaining about partial upgrade. | 17:47 |
| tgm4883 | orificium, shouldn't be, whats it trying to hold back | 17:51 |
| tgm4883 | and what repo are you trying to use | 17:51 |
| orificium | from the autobuilds package - trunk ppa | 17:53 |
| tmkt | anyone have issues with the LCD? | 17:58 |
| tmkt | my lcd is working | 17:58 |
| tmkt | but the only lcd ionfo i'm getting from mythlcdserver is the time | 17:58 |
| tgm4883 | orificium, I can't help now, but the packages are all built | 18:00 |
| orificium | sorry, I was having issues ssh/vnc into my box | 18:01 |
| orificium | I was going to check to see which packages | 18:01 |
| orificium | mythtv mythtv-backend mythtv-common mythtv-database mythtv-frontend | 18:02 |
| orificium | mythtv-themes mythtv-transcode-utils | 18:02 |
| orificium | my box has been running 16 days. maybe I should give it a reboot | 18:03 |
| tgm4883 | orificium, dont' go through with it, but what does it want to do if you do a dist-upgrade | 18:13 |
| oobe | <oobe> j | 19:26 |
| oobe | --- #flood :Cannot send to channel | 19:26 |
| oobe | lol | 19:26 |
| oobe | over abuse | 19:26 |
| orificium | tgm4883: that works | 19:34 |
| orificium | tgm4883: why is there a difference between upgarde and dist-pgrade? | 19:34 |
| orificium | pardon the typos | 19:34 |
| orificium | it's removing some old themes is about all now | 19:35 |
| tgm4883 | orificium, as much as I appreciate people testing development releases, if you don't know the differences between an upgrade and a dist-upgrade I'm not sure you should be running development releases | 19:36 |
| tgm4883 | no offense | 19:36 |
| orificium | gotta start learning sometime | 19:36 |
| tgm4883 | the main difference being, doing a dist-upgrade will install new packages | 19:36 |
| orificium | which is why I ask. | 19:36 |
| tgm4883 | fair enough | 19:37 |
| tgm4883 | so likely what happened, is there was a new dependency from one of those packages | 19:37 |
| tgm4883 | doing a dist-upgrade will install that new dependency | 19:37 |
| orificium | I ask because most of the time, update manager handles the new builds fine | 19:37 |
| hads | There's a lot of attitude in the mythtv community. | 21:41 |
| hads | Thankfully it's not really around these parts. | 21:42 |
| tgm4883 | hads, how so? | 21:57 |
| hads | I was hanging out in #mythtv-users which I haven't done for a while. There's quite an elitist attitude from some people. | 22:03 |
| tgm4883 | hads, devs? | 22:03 |
| tgm4883 | I mean, I can act more elitist if you want | 22:03 |
| tgm4883 | my mythbox is bigger than your mythbox | 22:04 |
| hads | Yes, some devs. | 22:04 |
| hads | Not ubuntu devs though | 22:04 |
| ToeBee | my mythbox has *4* cores! | 22:04 |
| ToeBee | too bad it can't put them to good use and record in HD :( | 22:08 |
| tgm4883 | ToeBee, record in HD, isn't most HD recording already compressed? | 22:08 |
| ToeBee | <insert DRM rant here> | 22:08 |
| tgm4883 | ie, not cpu intensive? | 22:08 |
| tgm4883 | ah yea, DRM :/ | 22:08 |
| tgm4883 | ToeBee, I think foxbuntu has you beat there as well, IIRC, he has dual quad cores | 22:09 |
| mrand | We can snub HD. Would that make us elitist? | 22:09 |
| tgm4883 | ToeBee, no HD-PVR? | 22:09 |
| ToeBee | iirc haupage announced a cablecard tuner that would work in non OEM PCs... but I think it will only work in windows 7 | 22:10 |
| ToeBee | I have a tuner card that can do digital but all the digital HD channels I would want to record are encrypted | 22:11 |
| tgm4883 | ah | 22:11 |
| * tgm4883 does OTA | 22:11 | |
| tgm4883 | iirc, cablecards are under some strict restrictions | 22:12 |
| ToeBee | yes | 22:12 |
| tgm4883 | but I thought I heard a lot of that was lifted recently | 22:12 |
| ToeBee | yes... for windows 7. I'm guessing they won't let linux in on the secret | 22:12 |
| tgm4883 | well cable cards had support in XP as well | 22:13 |
| ToeBee | http://www.ehomeupgrade.com/2009/09/09/windows-7-end-users-can-now-add-cablecard-tuners-to-their-pcs/ | 22:13 |
| ToeBee | I thought only for OEM equipment though | 22:13 |
| tgm4883 | like that means much | 22:14 |
| * tgm4883 looks at all the OEM licenses of XP you could buy | 22:14 | |
| ToeBee | no, like they somehow checked some BIOS strings to verify that you were running an approved device. There was a hack around it but it required a specific chipset | 22:15 |
| tgm4883 | iirc foxbuntu found a company that produces a cablecard tuner that had a linux dev kit | 22:15 |
| tgm4883 | you would have to bug him about that though | 22:15 |
| ToeBee | hmm | 22:17 |
| ToeBee | might look into that. Of course then I still have to pay my cable company a $200 cablecard "installation fee" plus I think $5/month | 22:18 |
| tgm4883 | installation fee? fight that | 22:19 |
| tgm4883 | it literally plugs into your TV? | 22:19 |
| ToeBee | I think they have to enter some code and they require that to be done by a tech | 22:19 |
| tgm4883 | cancel? | 22:20 |
| tgm4883 | you could always go hulu ;) | 22:20 |
| ToeBee | I'm seriously considering it | 22:20 |
| ToeBee | save myself $75/month | 22:20 |
| tgm4883 | do it | 22:20 |
| tgm4883 | they will waive fees like crazy to keep you around | 22:20 |
| ToeBee | now I just need boxee to release a 64 bit build! | 22:20 |
| tgm4883 | or roll with the hulu desktop? | 22:21 |
| ToeBee | or that | 22:21 |
| tgm4883 | thats how I do it | 22:21 |
| tgm4883 | have a link from my frontend | 22:21 |
| ourtv | hmmm, is there a link already telling me how to put boxee on the mythtv menu in karmic? | 22:21 |
| ToeBee | boxee is nice because it does more than just hulu | 22:21 |
| tgm4883 | boxee is crap because it doesn't support 64-bit machines | 22:22 |
| ToeBee | heh well yes... | 22:22 |
| tgm4883 | if it did, i'd write a plugin for MCC that would install boxee and configure a link for it | 22:22 |
| ToeBee | ourtv: I think I used this back on Jaunty: http://forum.boxee.tv/showthread.php?t=4248 | 22:22 |
| tgm4883 | but I won't do that until it supports 64-bit | 22:22 |
| ToeBee | that'd be hot | 22:22 |
| ToeBee | I believe the beta will support 64 bit... whenever that is released | 22:23 |
| tgm4883 | we will see | 22:23 |
| tgm4883 | oh, and it's closed source | 22:23 |
| tgm4883 | I don't like that about it either | 22:23 |
| tgm4883 | it's been a while since I ranted on boxee | 22:23 |
| ToeBee | just the flash and hulu parts I think | 22:23 |
| ToeBee | well I guess most of the rest are xbmc | 22:24 |
| ToeBee | s/are/is/ | 22:24 |
| tgm4883 | yea, the parts that are open source are the parts they had to legally open source | 22:24 |
| ourtv | ToeBee, when i upgraded the link i set up using that link disappeared and it looks to me like those instructions won't work for karmic | 22:24 |
| tgm4883 | ourtv, the link? | 22:24 |
| ourtv | tgm4883, i meant the link in mythtv to fireup boxee from it's main menu. poor choice to use link for both. | 22:25 |
| tgm4883 | ah | 22:25 |
| tgm4883 | ourtv, I'm at work, so don't have the time to hold your hand, but read that link above and look for the part where you add it to your menu | 22:26 |
| tgm4883 | that part should be the same | 22:26 |
| ourtv | tgm4883, i'll see if i can muddle through | 22:32 |
| ourtv | i don't really think it's the same at all. | 22:53 |
| ToeBee | I might give it a shot tonight after I get home | 23:01 |
