groogsI'm having issues with the remote with a PVR-150 (non MCE version).  It was working yesterday, but not today.  since yesterday, i added the autobuilds repository, but looking back it looks like everything is the same version05:25
groogskernel is 2.6.31-14-generic05:25
groogslirc 0.8.6-0ubuntu205:26
groogsyesterday, in syslog, i can see  lirc_dev: IR Remote Control driver registered, major 61      lirc_i2c: chip 0x10020 found @ 0x71 (Hauppauge PVR150)    .. today i only get the lirc_dev line, and there is no /dev/lirc005:27
groogsany ideas on where to go from here?05:29
groogscomment on bug #442316 - "Mythstream is no longer supported in mythbuntu 9.10" .. is that a temporary thing, while mythstream is updated to 0.22, or is something else going on?05:36
ZinnBug 442316 in mythbuntu "Mythbuntu 9.10 Beta Mythstream missing." [Undecided, Invalid] http://www.launchpad.net/bugs/44231605:36
rhpot1991I think mirobridge is your replacement05:36
groogsinteresting, i will check that out ..05:39
groogstho it doesn't look like it has streaming radio (eg shoutcast) support05:39

linxehI've got an ubuntu 9.10 system - can I just install the mythbuntu package ?13:13
mrandlinxeh: yes, you should be able to simply install mythbuntu-control-centre and it will give you some radio buttons to enable whatever you'd like.13:18
linxehI'm installing the mythbuntu-desktop metapackage etm13:19

dragon_rebornhi all20:10
dragon_rebornI have just upgraded from 9.04 to mythbuntu 9.10 and now my movies are not playing, what do I need to do to fix this?20:11
tgm4883dragon_reborn, probably start by telling us what kind of movies20:18
dragon_reborn.avi20:18
tgm4883error messages?20:19
dragon_rebornnope, just a black screen20:19
tgm4883most likely, you need to install proprietary codecs20:19
tgm4883which you can do via MCC20:19
dragon_rebornI have done that, do I need to restart the server to activate the prop codecs?20:19
tgm4883no20:20
tgm4883can you play them outside of mythtv?20:20
dragon_rebornyes if I use VLC they play fine20:20
tgm4883Are you using mythvideo storage groups?20:20

Zinndragon_reborn: when pasting more than 5 lines of data please use http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com so you don't flood the channel.  Then please post the link in the channel.20:26
dragon_rebornsorry I forgot to mention that I am a complete newbie so I am not that fimiliar with how to collect the logs20:26
hads!logs20:26
ZinnMythTV 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.20:26
tgm4883it freakin tells you right there?20:27
tgm4883If you are using mythvideo Storage Groups and external players, then that doesn't work, you can use one or the other but not both20:28
dragon_rebornI cannot seem to find this mythbuntu-log-grabber20:28
dragon_rebornhold on found it20:29
dragon_rebornlogs at http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com/f2ecf979f20:32
dragon_rebornso easy when you know how.....20:33
dragon_rebornhow do I check which storage groups I am using?20:37
tgm4883dragon_reborn, when you upgraded, did you do a reinstall?20:41
dragon_rebornnope just ran upgrade from "update manager"20:41
tgm4883then you aren't using SG's, unless you specifically set them up in mythtv-setup20:42
dragon_rebornthe only thing I changed is the location of the movies...I changed it to be on my raid5 disk at /media/vedeos20:43
* tgm4883 sighs20:43
dragon_rebornvideos..sorry typo20:43
tgm48832 things20:43
tgm48831) Don't download movies20:44
tgm48832) If you change video locations, you should probably scan for changes20:44
tgm4883oh, and 320:44
tgm48833) don't download movies20:44
hadsheh, you can't really tell people not to download movies.20:44
tgm4883hads, why not?20:45
dragon_reborni do scan for changes20:45
hadsNot really much to do with you.20:45
tgm4883we like to keep piracy out of this channel20:45
tgm4883case in point, sasc-ng20:45
Zinntgm4883: sasc-ng is a method to ILLEGALLY receive cable or satellite broadcasts via a fake software dvb-s/c device.  It is forbidden from being discussed in #ubuntu-mythtv, #ubuntu-mythtv-dev, #mythtv-users, and #mythtv.  If you would like to learn more about it, please refer to its developers and keep any and all discussions about it there.20:45
hadsI'm aware.20:45
tgm4883so when someone comes in here and I see that they have, I tell them20:46
hads*shrug*20:46
hadsdragon_reborn: Do what you like20:47
tgm4883I mean, I totally understand that the movie industry overprices their movies and makes a lot of crap20:47
dragon_rebornI am not going to justify my downloads here. I happen to like paying but as I don't live in the US it is exceedingly difficult to legally download movies. If you can point me to one site that I can do it from I wouls gladly comply20:47
dragon_rebornagreed but I happen to feel it is morally right to pay for watching something unfortunately this not always possible20:48
tgm4883So anyway, back on topic. Your mythtv install looks jacked up20:50
dragon_rebornthanks..I think20:50
tgm4883dragon_reborn, are you using the internal player in mythtv or an external player such as xine or vlc?20:50
dragon_reborninternal20:51
tgm4883andre, quickest way to fix would probably be to try using the external vlc player with mythtv20:51
tgm4883sec, let me get the lik20:51
tgm4883link20:51
tgm4883dragon_reborn, http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/VLC20:52
dragon_reborncool thanks a stack20:52
dragon_rebornI will check it out20:52
tgm4883np20:52
dragon_rebornone thing..under player settings I have the following Default Video Player    mplayer -fs -zoom -quiet -vo xv %s20:53
dragon_reborndoes this mean I use the internal or external player?20:54
tgm4883dragon_reborn, thats internal20:57
dragon_rebornthanks21:00
hadsHuh? That's mplayer. Internal is internal.21:11
hadsdragon_reborn: If you replace that mplayer line with "Internal" then you will be using the internal player. At the moment you aren't.21:13
dragon_rebornok thanks21:14
dragon_reborngtg..system is hanging for some reason need to reboot, thanks for the help21:16
tgm4883hads, I thought that was the line to use the internal player (when set for the default player)21:17
tgm4883I would not have put the mplayer line in mine, and IIRC, that is what mine is set at for internal21:17
tgm4883s/internal/default21:17
hadsI believe you guys used to use mplayer as the default for mythvideo. That will still launch mplayer rather than use the internal mythtv player though.21:24
hadsThe defualt these days is "Internal"21:24
yojimbo-sanI've got a Mythbuntu 8.10 server here, and I need to upgrade it to 9.10 ... but update manager doesn't see any new releases available (no, I'm not restricting myself to LTS only). How can I encourage it to see the light?22:02
hadsyojimbo-san: Try update-manager -d -c22:18
yojimbo-sanHi hads. No, that doesn't reveal a new distro at all :-(22:19
yojimbo-sanupdate-manager --dist-upgrade looked good for a second or so, but quit without anything being done too.22:21
yojimbo-sanAh, got it, I think ...22:25
yojimbo-sanhttps://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeProblems22:25
yojimbo-sanLooks like 8.10 was missing /var/lib/update-manager/meta-release completely22:25
yojimbo-sanThat may have been a mythbuntu-caused problem ... but it looks like we can proceed now22:25
hipitihopcan mythtv play ISO image of DVD and if so where should I put the iso file /22:32
hipitihopsorry, just found on wiki that mythvideo does22:34
rhpot1991!iso | hipitihop22:39
Zinnhipitihop: Storage Groups are a streaming method of transmitting material to a frontend, meaning they don't provide block-level access to the file in question. An ISO is a disk image, and requires block-level access. Upstream has a plan to simulate a block device across the network using NBD for 0.23. Until then you can use the following workaround: http://www.baablogic.net/drupal/node/722:39
