[00:05] <hipitihop> I'm running HMDI audio and each time I reboot I need to go into the mixer and reenable one of the switches.... how can I get things to stick ?
[00:35] <foxbuntu> hipitihop, make sure you are up to date, I think there was a bug filed/fixed for that very issue recently
[00:42] <hipitihop> foxbuntu: been keeping pretty mcuh up to date but doing update now and will confirm. thanks
[00:50] <DonGiovanni> Hello, I have an issue where devices set to /dev/lirc0 will work but devices set to /dev/lirc1 will not (ir receiver on lirc0 and transmitter on lirc1 = ir receiver (remote) only works, if i switch transmitter to lirc0 and remote to lirc1 then only the transmitter works), any ideas?
[00:51] <DonGiovanni> I have a thread open here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1301052 with my conf files posted
[00:58] <hipitihop> foxbuntu: indeed sound works perfectly fine after reboot.... hurray progress ?
[00:59] <hipitihop> if I could only get my lirc working I'd actually have a working HTPC... usbhid still refuses to let go
[01:09] <fritz3000g> Hi there.  New IRC user.  I ran into a problem with mythtv today, which I am baffled by.  When I click "watch tv", it goes black for a few seconds and then goes back to the main menu.  The other symptom is that all my recordings are shown as grey and say that the can not be accessed.  I was thinking that it might be a permissions problem, but my whole user directory is 777 permissions with mythtv as a group.  Also, var/
[01:30] <fritz3000g1> Sorry if you're seeing this again.  I was on the online portion, then installed pidgin and I think that means I should post again.  So here is the question I asked a few minutes ago, again.

[01:52] <OpenMedia> With Mythbuntu 9.10 rc I can't disable the Category Text fields in the EPG.
[01:53] <OpenMedia> I've check the database and the value for EPGShowCategoryText is zero.
[01:54] <OpenMedia> Any ideas?
[01:59] <joat> fritz3000g1: did you upgrade a kernel recently?
[02:00] <fritz3000g1> No not recently.  Been waiting for 9.10.
[02:01] <joat> have you rebooted lately?
[02:01] <fritz3000g1> Yeah a few minutes ago I did.
[02:01] <joat> and it still acts up?
[02:01] <fritz3000g1> Yeah, still acts up.
[02:02] <superm1> does the log show anything useful?
[02:02] <superm1> !logs
[02:02] <Zinn> MythTV logs are stored in /var/log/mythtv/   You can use mythbuntu-log-grabber from the Applications menu to automatically post the most relevant logs to our pastebin.
[02:02] <fritz3000g1> Sure it's here:
[02:03] <joat> yikes!
[02:03] <mrand> haha
[02:03] <superm1> hence the reason for pastebin :
[02:03] <joat> heh
[02:03] <superm1> fritz3000g, please use pastebin
[02:03] <fritz3000g> Yeah sorry.  First timer.
[02:04] <superm1> if you run that tool, it will put everything on a pastebin for you
[02:04] <superm1> and you can just post the URL here
[02:05] <fritz3000g> Here's the link to the pastebin.  Thanks superm1 for the tip.
[02:06] <fritz3000g> http://paste.ubuntu.com/302472/
[02:06] <superm1> fritz3000g, that's not the log we're looking for, the backend log is what we are looking for
[02:07] <superm1> that looks like a frontend log to me
[02:09] <fritz3000g> I'm not sure if I did it right, but the tool that came up gave me this link:  http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com/f6d25d828
[02:10] <superm1> so according to that you've got a problem with mysql it would appear
[02:11] <superm1> well two problems that i see actually
[02:11] <superm1> #
[02:11] <superm1> 2009-10-26 20:48:29.019 SG(Default) Error: FindNextDirMostFree: '/home/fritz3000g/mythtv/recordings' does not exist!
[02:11] <superm1> so make sure your storage directory is set up right
[02:11] <superm1> and the other thing, check the mysql table for error
[02:12] <fritz3000g> That's odd.  I see the directory there with 777 permissions.  How do I check the mysql table?
[02:13] <superm1> can you run "ls -alhR /home/fritz3000g/mythtv/recordings" in a terminal and pastebin that output?
[02:13] <superm1> perhaps its a small typographical error somewhere
[02:13] <superm1> sort out that problem first, and then we'll see if the other fixes itself since files can be written again
[02:15] <fritz3000g> Here it is: http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com/m78cd0c8b
[02:15] <superm1> well gee, that's perplexing then!
[02:16] <fritz3000g> Thanks I suppose.
[02:16] <superm1> is it possible that the drive is almost full?
[02:17] <mrand> df -k
[02:17] <fritz3000g> No it's got 228 gigs free.
[02:18] <fritz3000g> I noticed this error in the logs I posted.  The file isn't there as far as I can tell.  /usr/share/gvfs/remote-volume-monitors: Error opening directory '/usr/share/gvfs/remote-volume-monitors': No such file or directory
[02:19] <superm1> well it wouldn't hurt to do an fsck on the disk
[02:19] <superm1> i wonder if you've got some corruption somewhere perhaps?
[02:19] <fritz3000g> I've done that before but not recently.  What command would you use?
[02:20] <superm1> if you boot some live media and run "fsck DEVICE"
[02:20] <superm1> where DEVICE is the partition node in /dev/
[02:20] <superm1> like /dev/sda1
[02:20] <fritz3000g> Ok.   I'll give that a try.  Thanks for the help superm1.
[02:20] <superm1> np, good luck :)
[02:21] <OpenMedia> umm. Wondering if my issues are due to a database from MythTV 0.20 that I upgraded to 0.22
[02:21] <superm1> in theory the database is supposed to be fully upgradable
[02:22] <OpenMedia> The DB upgrade broke at the following schema versions
[02:22] <OpenMedia> 1170
[02:22] <OpenMedia> 1176
[02:22] <OpenMedia> 1198
[02:24] <OpenMedia> Here is the debug output for 1170, http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com/m42bf42c4
[02:24] <superm1> that was skipping 0.21 though?
[02:24] <OpenMedia> I checked out that there was no issues with the query and then bumped the database version to allow the upgrade to complete. Otherwise I'm stuck in an infinite DB upgrade loop.
[02:25] <OpenMedia> Yeah. No upgrade to 0.21. It was a DB backup from 0.20.
[02:25] <mrand> it really shouldn't matter.
[02:25] <mrand> From a pure database standpoint.
[02:26] <OpenMedia> Here is an updated link showing all 3 of the updates that failed
[02:26] <OpenMedia> http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com/d5bf8d587
[02:27] <OpenMedia> I've tested upgrading the same 0.20 database to 0.21 under Mythbuntu 9.04 without any issues. This problem only happens on 0.22 and Mythbuntu 9.10
[02:27] <superm1> tbh, those things are probably best raised in #mythtv-users and/or on a bug report on svn.mythtv.org than here
[02:27] <OpenMedia> Just checking it wasn't something you'd seen before.
[02:27] <superm1> Nope, sorry :(
[02:28] <mrand> mdean on the mythtv-users mailing list often looks over these kinds of reports as well.
[02:28] <OpenMedia> Otherwise seriously impressed with 0.22 on 9.10.
[02:29] <OpenMedia> One oddity I've got is I can't disable the Category Text fields in the EPG. Looking at the database the value for EPGShowCategoryText is zero which is what I'd expect.
[02:31] <hads> OpenMedia: It's theme dependant now.
[02:31] <hads> csed -i 's/<showcategories>yes<\/showcategories>/<showcategories>no<\/showcategories>/' /usr/share/mythtv/themes/Mythbuntu/schedule-ui.xml
[02:31] <hads> erm, minus that c.
[02:33] <OpenMedia> hads: Cheers. Bit odd. It used to be selectable in the setup.
[02:34] <hads> Yeah, they (upstream) decided to make it theme dependant.
[02:37] <OpenMedia> Nice.
[03:02] <DonGiovanni> any ideas what would cause a device set to /dev/lirc1 to stop working when they otherwise work when set to /dev/lirc0?
[03:05] <fritz3000g> Whey you say "set to", you mean in xorg.conf?
[03:08] <DonGiovanni> nah in my /etc/lirc/hardware.conf
[03:09] <DonGiovanni> i have a remote (ir receiver) and a serial ir transmitter.  whichever device i set to /dev/lirc0 will work, the one assigned to /dev/lirc1 will not work
[03:11] <fritz3000g> Not sure, even after half the day working on lirc myself.
[03:12] <DonGiovanni> the confusing thing is
[03:13] <DonGiovanni> this configuration has worked perfectly for almost two years now
[03:13] <DonGiovanni> then my harddrive died so i reinstalled mythtv on a new drive and just used the backups of my config files
[03:14] <DonGiovanni> but for some reason only the first lirc device works, the second one doesn't

[03:20] <tgm4883> fritz3000g, what about your user dir?
[03:22] <fritz3000g> It's got 777 permissions.
[03:22] <tgm4883> your recording directory is inside your user directory?
[03:22] <fritz3000g> Yeah it is.
[03:22] <tgm4883> yea don't do that
[03:23] <fritz3000g> What should it have?
[03:23] <tgm4883> you should put it outside your user directory, owned by mythtv:mythtv and permissions 755 I think
[03:26] <fritz3000g> Ok I'm moving it.

[03:29] <fritz3000g> Ok I'll do that too.  Thanks.
[03:40] <fritz3000g> Hey who knew.  It worked.  Thanks Zinn and tgm4883.

[06:29] <hipitihop> how do I disable userid & password prompt on the http asx stream ?
[06:34] <ToeBee> mine doesn't have one. Then again, I don't have any password on my mythweb in the first place
[06:34] <ToeBee> (my mythbox is not accessible from outside of my network)
[06:35] <ToeBee> on the other hand, video isn't working in mine :/
[08:43] <Vhexation> So...tech support? = )  I'm running Mythbuntu and upgraded a few weeks ago to 9.10.  Things were pretty good, but yesterday I ran updates on the server (required a reboot) and since it came back up I've been having weird sound issues.  I have a PVR-350 and HVR-1600.  The programs that were recorded with the PVR-350 today had no sound.  So I checked LiveTV and sure enough, the PVR-350 had no sound in live TV, but the HVR-1600 had sound
[08:57] <hads> Vhexation: PVR-150 here works with current updates. Not very helpful but it's not all of ivtv that's broken
[09:05] <Vhexation> That's helpful though, means I might not have to look too deep into ivtv.  It might be my box for all I know.  I had a PVR-500 do something similar with video last year.
[12:47] <Dorgo> hey guys.
[12:49] <Dorgo> been trying to install mythbuntu 9.10 all day. every time , it reaches 76% and dies with [Errno 5] input/output error at 76%
[12:49] <Dorgo> i have tried both the beta and the RC (burned two disks each, at 24x), checked the MD5.
[12:49] <Dorgo> three different hard drives.
[12:49] <Dorgo> any ideas?
[13:16] <mrand> Dorgo:  1. Where are you getting the .iso from?  2. Did you try booting in both live mode (option 1) and install mode (option 2, I think).  They behave slightly differently, but both allow for installing.    3. Did you try booting in safe mode?
[13:16] <Dorgo> iso from mythbuntu website. yes tried both live and install.
[13:16] <Dorgo> not safe mode
[13:16] <mrand> I would hope safe mode wouldn't help if you're already up and running at 76%
[13:17] <Dorgo> just burned a new cd of a different type with a different program and ran the disk check and got no errors
[13:17] <mrand> Probably not worth trying.
[13:17] <Dorgo> so let me try this one before we look any further
[13:17] <mrand> Backup is to try standard ubuntu desk.
[13:17] <Dorgo> k
[13:22] <Dorgo> just a random question... am i cool to just do the guided partitioning on an 80gb then move around partitions later to for example use the other 500gb for data etc?
[13:22] <Dorgo> I couldn't find a decent explanation of the ideal partitions and filesystem types
[13:22] <mrand> The mythbuntu disk that is likely going to press is here: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/mythbuntu/daily-live/current/   but the changes between rc and release on mythbuntu are pretty small.  You can get the latest ubuntu disk from here (this is likely what will be going to press): http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/
[13:23] <Dorgo> got 40gb,80gb&500gb in the box
[13:23] <mrand> Yes, 80 GB is more than enough for OS and everything... really only takes a couple gigabytes.
[13:24] <Dorgo> ok
[13:40] <Dorgo> well how about that. it was just dodgy cds (or a dodgy burning program) :-D
[13:41] <mrand> great@!
[13:42] <Dorgo> yep :) now i just have to work out how to get it to see all the movies, tv and music i already have. capture card mission tomorrow.
[16:06] <Bicchi> I have a question regarding HDTV. Currently i use a box to convert the analog signal to digital that feeds to my TV.
[16:06] <Bicchi> What kind of card would I need that is compatible with Mythbuntu
[16:07] <Bicchi> I also need one that would allow me to change channels, that is, that it comes with a remote control.
[16:08] <Bicchi> My setup is like this: [COAX CABLE FROM THE STREET] -> [HD BOX] -> [LCD TV]
[16:09] <Bicchi> I would like to use another output from the [HD BOX] to feed the signal to a TV card in the mythbuntu.
[16:11] <Bicchi> My current TV card (PVR-250) doesn't record in HD and don't know what other options i have to record the signal.
[16:19] <tgm4883> Bicchi, are you sure the HD BOX isn't converting the digital signal to analog?
[16:22] <ToeBee> or for that matter from digital to digital like my setup
[16:22] <ToeBee> digital cable -> converter box -> HDMI
[16:23] <Bicchi> well comcast advertises it as a "High Definition Television"
[16:24] <ToeBee> pretty sure any HD content you get is coming in over "digital cable"
[16:24] <Bicchi> i think it is just used to boast the HD signal that comes in the coax
[16:25] <ToeBee> it is probably decrypting the digital HD video stream using a CableCard stuck in the back
[16:26] <Bicchi> Anyway, anything i record with the PVR-250 looks awfull now that i got a HD TV
[16:27] <Bicchi> i think cause is recording at 720x480 quality
[16:27] <Bicchi> My TV is playing things at 1920x1080 resolution.
[16:28] <Bicchi> Which explains why i want to get a card that can record at those high resolutions.
[16:28] <ToeBee> yeah same here. The problem is the encryption that comcast puts on the digital signal. Unless something has changed recently, you can't get a CableCard tuner that works in Linux :(
[16:28] <Bicchi> i was looking at this one pcHDTV 5500
[16:28] <tgm4883> Bicchi, you need an HDPVR
[16:30] <ToeBee> heck, your TV probably has a digital tuner in it so you wouldn't even need the HD Box they gave you... except your TV can't read the encrypted signal
[16:31] <tgm4883> likely, you would only receive local HD channels
[16:31] <Bicchi> I see. I can see some channels in high def. without the box like CBS.
[16:32] <ToeBee> yeah. The others are all encrypted. I'm pretty sure Comcast does this mostly just to force you to pay the extra $5/month for the cable box
[16:32] <Bicchi> i thought the box would boost the signal or something.
[16:32] <ToeBee> same thing with mythtv. They want you to shell out $15/month for *their* HD DVR. But yeah, that hd-PVR should work
[16:32] <ToeBee> http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Hauppauge_HD-PVR
[16:33] <ToeBee> nope
[16:33] <ToeBee> signal is fine. They're just money-grubbing bastards :)
[16:33] <Bicchi> what a crap is comcast trying to pull off
[16:34] <Bicchi> the lady over the phone told me that the box was to increase the signal strength and without i will not be able to see channels in high def.
[16:34] <ToeBee> not just comcast. I have the same issue with Cox
[16:34] <ToeBee> wow. I'm pretty sure that is a big load of steaming crap
[16:36] <ToeBee> but they are correct that you DO need it to see all your HD channels. It just has nothing to do with signal strength
[16:36] <ToeBee> unless your TV has support for CableCard
[16:36] <tgm4883> Bicchi, yea, they people you talk to aren't very technical
[16:37] <Bicchi> i though the box was to convert the signal from 480i into like 1090i. something like that.
[16:38] <tgm4883> well it does do some conversion, but nothing that mythtv couldn't handle itself. And the conversion it does is whatever the channel broadcasts in to whatever you selected it to come out as
[16:38] <tgm4883> But really, the only technical reason you need the cable box is because they encrypt their content
[16:39] <Bicchi> ok
[16:39] <Bicchi> will the tunner from the hd-pvr be able to change the channels?
[16:39] <tgm4883> well you need to an IR blaster, but IIRC the HDPVR has one
[16:40] <tgm4883> IIRC, you can use firewire to change the channels too (and not record), but i'm not 100% sure on that
[16:40] <Bicchi> any internal pci/pci-e you recommend that plays nice in linux ?
[16:40] <tgm4883> Bicchi, do you want to get more channels than just your Local HD?
[16:41] <Bicchi> if possible yes
[16:41] <mrand> Bicchi: there is only one HD capture device, the HD-PVR.  Anything else will only be able to capture un-encrypted channels.
[16:41] <tgm4883> Then there is no internal card that will do what you want to do, not for Linux, Windows or Mac
[16:41] <Bicchi> what about this one. i know is not internal http://www.hauppauge.com/site/products/data_hdpvr.html
[16:41] <mrand> Last I heard, jarod was working on getting the IR blaster working on it.  I don't know the latest status.
[16:41] <tgm4883> wtf are we talking about here?
[16:42] <tgm4883> Bicchi, you mean the same card we have been recommending you get for the last 10 minutes?
[16:42] <tgm4883> well, technically it isn't a card
[16:42] <ToeBee> well not so much "card" as "box"
[16:42] <tgm4883> but yea
[16:42] <ToeBee> heh
[16:42] <Bicchi> i know is not a card.
[16:43] <Bicchi> i was just asking if this one http://www.hauppauge.com/site/products/data_hdpvr.html records more thant the local channels
[16:43] <ToeBee> yes, it basically acts as a TV. You hook it up to your cable box with component cables
[16:44] <tgm4883> No, that box that we have been recommending for the last 15 minutes to do exactly what you want which is capture all channels your cable box
[16:44] <tgm4883>  /sarcasm
[16:44] <ToeBee> then it captures the picture signal and sends it to a computer via USB
[16:45] <Bicchi> does it work with mythtv and does it bring a remote control?
[16:45] <tgm4883> Bicchi, I'm going to let ToeBee answer that
[16:45] <Bicchi> don't worry i am just going to google the rest. thanks guys
[16:45] <ToeBee> :/ I already linked you to the mythtv page for it
[16:46] <ToeBee> I don't think it comes with a remote though
[16:48] <ToeBee> now if you can write to your congress critter and/or the FCC and convince them to outlaw all this DRM crap then the world would be a much happier place for all of us
[17:21] <tmkt> odd problems with mythtv 0.22 2-3minute delay for the remote to start working on initial FE startup
[17:21] <tmkt> 2 - Choices in Terra theme like Video Manager and Delete Videos that are useless
[17:24] <tgm4883> tmkt, useless how?
[17:52] <tmkt> just there is no point for them
[17:52] <tmkt> video browser does all the work
[17:52] <tmkt> go to Delete Videos
[17:52] <tmkt> it just plays them
[18:06] <tgm4883> tmkt, not sure about the delete videos, i'd check your logs
[18:07] <tgm4883> video manager has been removed in the latest mythtv builds
[18:08] <Memphisau> yeah, was sad to see it go :P
[18:10] <tmkt> no need for it...just like delete videos...is not needed
[18:11] <Memphisau> actually I quite liked it, it was easy to tell the family members: navigate to video manager, click that, then go back to 'watch videos' and the new shows on the USB hdd they plugged in would be available
[18:11] <Memphisau> now I have to define a menu button and teach them a new trick to do that
[18:11] <Memphisau> this is on a remote though
[18:39] <MythbuntuGuest34> can someone tell me if the 6200ch binary is included in Mythbuntu 9.10 RC? I see it is part of Ubuntu's MythTV package but I can't find the executable to change channels on my Motorola box
[18:51] <tgm4883> tmkt, why is delete videos not needed?
[19:01] <MythbuntuGuest34> I cannot find the binary and I also am getting an error making the file from source "cannot find lraw1394" I am a bit stuck. Any help would be appriciated.
[19:09] <tgm4883> MythbuntuGuest34, where do you see it's in the mythtv package?
[19:09] <tgm4883> and what is the binary called?
[19:10] <tgm4883> MythbuntuGuest34, looks like it is in the /usr/share/doc/mythtv-backend/contrib/channel_changers/6200ch/ directory
[19:11] <MythbuntuGuest34> 6200ch.c is the binary, and this link says it is included in the ubuntu mythtv package https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MythTV_External_Channel_Changer
[19:11] <tgm4883> but doesn't look to be compiled
[19:11] <MythbuntuGuest34> yes I have the directory (and sorce files) but I am getting an error saying cannot find lraw1394 when trying to compile
[19:11] <tgm4883> well that file is there, it's zipped though
[19:11] <tgm4883> well if you are trying to compile it, it's not the binary
[19:12]  * tgm4883 shrugs
[19:13] <MythbuntuGuest34> brb, firefox is frozen with this java aplet open, I am going to look again for the binary
[19:13] <tgm4883> I can't find a single file containing the keyword 6200.ch
[19:13] <tgm4883> which is what the binary should be called
[19:13] <tgm4883> foxbuntu, do you know ^^
[19:15] <MythbuntuGuest34> did you say the binary was in the 6200ch.c.gz file?
[19:16] <MythbuntuGuest34> I can't find/open that file anymore but locate 6200 still shows it in the .../6200ch folder
[19:18] <MythbuntuGuest34> I also tried downloading the precompiled 6200ch.c file from the ubuntu wiki link earlier but the file no longer exists on the server
[19:27] <tgm4883> no, i don't see the binary anywhere
[19:30] <MythbuntuGuest34> ok, I guess I will need to either track it down or figure out why it isn't included. For now I guess I will try out mythchanger https://wiki.ubuntu.com/majoridiot
[20:28] <MythbuntuGuest34> mythchanger is working fine for now. I will just stick with that. Thanks for your help tgm4883
[21:35] <javatexan> so why xfce instead of gnome?
[21:38] <javatexan> just curious
[21:40] <superm1> well at the time it was because gnome is much more heavyweight
[21:40] <superm1> nowadays that proved to be a good decision with how tight pulseaudio is with them
[21:40] <superm1> and with their move to heavy compositing/gnome-shell next year

[21:59] <Redhammer_the_Ol> hi
[22:01] <Redhammer_the_Ol> I had to reinstall eveything the other day (corrute backup) and decided to go with 9.10rc and now I am having trouble with a couple of items: a) shutdown will not work anymore, log says "sudo no tty present and no askpass" as an error message and I have read that I need to ## out the requirement for tty in te sudoers but I cannot seem to find anything in my sudoers file ...
[22:02] <Redhammer_the_Ol> when starting up mythfront end from command line I can see that it cannot connect to the lcd server, the lcd display in my case shows the time but nothing else, any ideas why that is
[22:03] <Redhammer_the_Ol> thirdly has anyone installed 9.10 and then enable the avenard repo and been sucessful
[22:03] <Redhammer_the_Ol> thanks for all your help
[22:33] <foxbuntu> tgm4883, I do, but I would have to look it up, its something like that, 6200dch maybe?
[22:45] <tgm4883> Redhammer_the_Ol, why would you activate the anenard repo on 9.10?
[22:46] <tgm4883> I thought that just enabled VDPAU on 0.21?
[22:48] <Redhammer_the_Ol> at tgm4883: because it gives more audio options
[22:50] <hipitihop> tgm4883: IS VDPAU enabled by default ? or how do I tell if it is being used ?
[22:51] <tgm4883> hipitihop, enabled by default, no. you need to set up a playback profile for it
[22:52] <hads> tgm4883: I think the only thing jya has with 0.22 is the new audio patches
[22:52] <hads> software volume and upmixing etc.
[22:52] <tgm4883> ah ok
[22:53] <Redhammer_the_Ol> and the audio patches help me output to multiple options
[22:53] <Redhammer_the_Ol> anyone have any ideas abou the lcd connection problem and about the sudo no tty present and no askpass ?
[22:53] <hads> Yeah I was hoping that would make it into 0.22, at least 0.23 won't be too far away
[23:03] <hipitihop> tgm4883: so VDPAU is a playback option ... I assume the wiki had doc
[23:30] <hipitihop> what streaming protocols does myth support ? I see mythweb provides ASX which seems ot be a stream and a mpg which is full file download ..
[23:31] <hads> ASX is a wrapper around the actual stream
[23:31] <hads> wget it and take a look
[23:32] <hads> So the streaming it support is just a HTTP stream of the recording from the backend.
[23:36] <hipitihop> hads: what format is the http stream ?
[23:37] <hads> What the recording is.
[23:37] <hads> Actually, maybe it's not.
[23:37] <hads> Yeah I think it is.
[23:38] <hipitihop> I'm just trying to wok out what players understand the stream.... I can use vlc on my desktop but vlc is not available on all platforms/distros
[23:38] <hads> Why not?
[23:40] <hipitihop> not sure .... for example, I have a freerunner phone, running a debian distro but vlc is not available, at least not in the normal feeds, whereas mplayer is there.
[23:40] <hads> Oh that type of platform.
[23:41] <hads> Well yeah, standard recording format I believe.
[23:41] <hipitihop> maybe the question is, can I get mythfront end on to it :-)
[23:43] <hipitihop> ok, how do I disable mythweb security ... those stream links always need userid and password and while vlc handles it correctly, gnome-mplayer and others don't and just fail.
