MythbuntuGuest52I have a sound issue, is anyone on?00:18
dasdudeHello everyone.  I just installed Mythbuntu 9.10 and noticed there's no button in mythbuntu-control-centre for installing a diskless server.  Anyone know what's up?  I suppose I could do the LTSP stuff myself, but the button was so much easier :)01:25
Seventoeshow do i adjust the sensitivity of my joysticks?01:33
benomaticquestion from an ign'ant user: i have been using mythbuntu for a couple months, via normal login/gdm, and finally have need to autologin.  I configured mingetty/ratpoison as suggested here: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Frontend_Auto_Login  and loging, etc. all work fine.  however, my remote control no longer works.  ircat shows the events coming through, but mythtv doesn't seem to see them, and nothing shows up in the logs.  any sug01:59
hadsmythbuntu actually has it's own auto-login functionality with GDM if you just want to work around it02:00
benomatici have a house sitter for a few weeks, and don't want her to have login access as me02:01
hadsI couldn't tell you why LIRC isn't working for you when using ratpoison but the logs might.02:01
benomatici think i may have just figured it out02:01
hadsAh I see.02:01
hadsYou can create another user and just set that to auto login temporarily.02:01
benomatici ran ircat as mythtv instead of myself, and i am missing config files02:01
benomatici figured ratpoison w/ automagic restart was easiest, since i can just run startx myself when i want to have normal gui (which is rare)02:02
benomaticlircrc linkage solves all woes02:07
dasdudeOk, I installed mythbuntu-diskless-server hoping it would magic the buttons into mythbuntu-control-center.  No dice...  I don't suppose anyone knows of a page on the 'net that tells me the commands all those nice buttons ran?  (mythbuntu 9.10)02:08
hadsI believe it's similar or the same to 8.04 and there's an ubuntu wiki page around for that.02:09
hadsltsp-build-client or something02:09
dasdude8.04 had all the mythbuntu-diskless buttons, but mcc in 9.10 doesn't have them :(02:09
hadsYes the plugin for MCC didn't quite make it into 9.1002:10
dasdudecrap...02:10
hads...02:10
dasdudeI guess I'll have to figure out how to do it manually.02:10
dasdudeThanks.02:10
dasdudemcc is written in python, right?02:11
hadsIt it02:12
hadsis02:12
dasdudeMy brother claims to know python...  I'll ask him to look into it.  Do you know where he'd go to submit a patch?02:12
hadsLaunchpad. Though I believe there may be something half done.02:13
hadsHonestly. The command line isn't that scary.02:13
dasdudeSweet.  Those buttons really made things easy.02:13
sguntherAfter an upgrade (Clean install with a database transfer) to 9.10 mysql is using 95 to 99% of my cpu (Running for a day now.)  This only occurs after mythtv-backend launches.  Has anyone seen any issues with mysql and 9.10?02:32
dasdudeIt looks like https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MythTV/Install/Hardy/Diskless has all the commands required to build a diskless client by hand.  Only mentioning it in case this channel gets logged and posted somewhere.02:37
hads_Yeah, the one I was referring to.02:40

mishehuok, I updated from 9.04 to 9.10, and it killed vnc.  how can I get the vnc server going again?  I can only access the machine at the moment via ssh03:45
ToeBeemishehu: I believe the mythbuntu control center has an option to enable VNC03:58
mishehuToeBee: it does, but I need access to X for that03:59
mishehuanyway, I'll just deal with it yesterday03:59
ToeBeeyou can do X forwarding through ssh03:59
ToeBeeuse ssh -X03:59
ToeBeeand run the control center through that04:00
ToeBeeassuming you're coming from a linux host as well04:00
jsthey guys, i added the avenard.org release repository for a clean install of karmic... however, when trying to install mythtv-frontend, i get errors saying that libdirectfb-1.0.0 and librawl1394-8 are not installable (they're obsolete... i have newer versions of both installed). how can i fix this?05:18
jsthello, jester(s)05:19
jstanyone?05:33
jtmoneyuhm, jst here05:35
jtmoneynot sure if i authenticaed correctly with identserv05:35
hadsThe avenard repo isn't really needed for karmic.05:42
jtmoneyohh, well i just wanted the latest nvidia drivers too05:42
jtmoneyi guess i should have compiled them manually and saved the hassle05:42
hadsIt should work if you want to use it I guess, but you'll need to talk to the guy himself if it's broken.05:43
jtmoneyis there any way i can tell apt-get that packagex-0.8 isn't installed, but packagex-1.2 is installed, so use that?05:44
jtmoneywell, i tried disabling the avenard repository and installing mythtv that way... but it wants to remove nvidia-190-glx and install nvidia-180-glx05:45
hadsIt will need to be solved in the repository by jya05:45
hadsYes, karmic standard repos don't have 19005:45
jtmoneyalright, clearly this repo has dependency issues :-X05:48
jtmoneyguess i'll reinstall ;)05:48
jtmoneythanks for your help05:48
hadsUh, if you stick around longer you probably don't need to reinstalled.05:50

alyssum_i have a large collection of movies and tv series and would like to automatically grab metadata for them and update my mythtv database.  i have been trying to use jamu for this but it can't even find my video files, not to mention it's a config nightmare.  isn't there an easy solution for this?06:52

Elwellhmm installing just frontend removes NTP?14:55
tgm4883Elwell, shouldn't15:59
Elwellsaw it scroll past in the installer window - not had chance to dig deep15:59
tgm4883i'll try testing when I get home unless someone beats me to it16:00
Elwell(this is from the iso installer)16:01
mishehuok I'm pleasantly surprised, especially after the ubuntu 9.10 /. post from yesterday16:09
mishehunothing really broke when I updated from 9.04 to 9.1016:09
MythbuntuGuest50Hello,  I am looking at building a htpc using a zotec Ion board.  can you run front and back end at same time?16:35
styelzhello, does mythstream still come with mythtv 0.22 ?16:41
mrandstyelz: Mythbuntu/ubuntu packages do not carry it.  http://home.kabelfoon.nl/~moongies/streamtuned.html implies that it was ported to 0.22, but I don't know the current state of it.16:43
styelzi keep getting   mythstream: Depends: mythtv-frontend but it is not going to be installed16:43
styelzah16:43
styelzthanks16:43
styelzhope it works, else im going back to 2116:44
styelzthanks mrand, that answered all my q's16:47
gnome42hmm, what is the best way to move recordings between backends? Is there some easy way to keep the recording metadata?17:25
mrandgnome42:  The old method is described here: http://www.mythtv.org/docs/mythtv-HOWTO-23.html#ss23.7     It would be best if you moved it between databases of the same version.  If you aren't, you might want/need to use the -c command.   But the mythtv developers would like veryone to start following what is described here: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Database_Backup_and_Restore   (you'd want a partial restore)17:30
gnome42mrand: thanks for the info.17:44

cba123I can't seem to get mythmusic to output over hdmi, mythvideo does fine if I use "alsa:device=hdmi" but mythmusic doesn't.  Running updated Karmic.  Any ideas?22:55
Cuco3can someone help me out23:39
Cuco3i have the audio delay when using mythtv, I'm trying the "Troubleshooting Audio" section of the mythtv wiki, but there doesn't appear to be a "CAPTUR source"23:40
Cuco3using ubuntu 9.04 and alsamixer 1.0.1823:41
mrandcuco3, you might have better luck asking on the mythbuntu forums.  Be sure to post exactly what settings you have, and how you are getting audio out (HDMI or  sound card [what chipset], etc).  You might also play with a few settings in the frontend... "video as base for sound", for example.23:45
Cuco3ty mrand.23:47
Cuco3i'll try it out23:47
Cuco3well i was hoping to get this going before basketball starts. oh well, some other day.23:50
Cuco3thanks again mrand, i'll bbl23:50
