bmidgley2with ubuntu 9.04 and mythtv, I can start mythexport jobs and I see the file growing but when the transcode finishes the file gets removed01:33

BjornR1989I've mounted my windows SMB share root to /mnt/server0 but Mythbuntu doesn't seem to traverse directories.03:04
BjornR1989ls -l /mnt/server0 prints all directories.03:04
BjornR1989And the IR doesn't function.03:13
BjornR1989An IR debugger would be nice, is there one available for Mythbuntu?03:13
rhpot1991bmidgley2: have you tried running ffmpeg by hand to verify that it doesn't fail?04:12
rhpot1991BjornR1989: man irw04:26
rhpot1991that requires your ir to be in a somewhat usable state though04:27
BjornR1989I've found a Python script to map my remote and it works but it can't be integrated in MythTV04:33
BjornR1989trying man irw now04:34
BjornR1989I need to know what socket it should connect to. Without a socket it doesn't print anything.04:37
BjornR1989Thanks for helping.04:38
rhpot1991/dev/lirc0 prob04:38
BjornR1989Nothing lirc* in /dev except for a symlink lircd to /var/run/lirc/lircd04:40
BjornR1989The Python script ( http://pastebin.com/f2a162e62 ) works so i was thinking of redirecting its keystrokes to MythTV04:42
BjornR1989Time for some Python for dummies.04:42
rhpot1991did you set your remote up in MCC?04:56
BjornR1989I did... more or less. The remote that i have (Asus AI remote) differs from Asus DH remote, though they're almost completely the same. It was worth a try but even if it shouldn't work this way there has to be a solution.04:58
BjornR1989I wonder why MCC doesn't contain an IR test.04:58
rhpot1991BjornR1989: google and the ubuntu forums are generally the best bet for finding out how to set it up04:59
rhpot1991unless you get lucky enough to find someone here who has the same remote (you won't)04:59
BjornR1989I've got some steps further thanks to google.04:59
rhpot1991thats not a common remote04:59
BjornR1989It's common for Asus AI motherboards.04:59
* BjornR1989 has just discovered the xev command05:13
BjornR1989Ok, the python script can now communicate with the IR receiver, now i need to find a way to redirect the virtual keystrokes to MythTV.05:15
ChaorainI'm upgrading my os from 32 bit to 64 bit. How do I save my recorded TV shows?05:23
BjornR1989I'd say cp all files to another HDD and perhaps copy the SQL data but what do i know, i just started experimenting with Mythbuntu.05:27
ChaorainWell I've upgraded my OS before and just copying them doesn't work05:28
BjornR1989Good to know when i'll upgrade.05:29
rhpot1991ChanServ: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Database_Backup_and_Restore05:30
rhpot1991Chaorain: ^05:30
Chaorainthanks05:33
BjornR1989The IR remote functions properly now.05:45
BjornR1989The python script automatically redirects its output to the focused window (being MythTV)05:45
bmidgley2rhpot1991: actually the problem seems to be AtomicParseley not recognizing the transcoded file06:27
jbaughdoes anyone have experience transcoding with HDTV with either nuvexport or mythnuv2mkv?08:54
jbaughI have 2 (what I thought were identical - but obviously aren't) master backends (mine and my brothers) - one transcodes using 100% of the cpu (ideal) - one only uses 3% (not ideal)08:55
jbaugh-- just looking for what things I may look at.  mencoder and ffmpeg are the same version on both machines08:56
jbaughubuntu 9.10 - myth 0.2208:57
BjornR1989Where can i report HUGE translation errors?09:33
BjornR1989Or even better: correct them?09:33
BjornR1989Odd...09:46
BjornR1989It doesn't read DVD's, it doesn't play audio files, it can't find video files...09:46
=== MythbuntuGuest59 is now known as NeoT
NeoTi'm VERY new to Mythbuntu and need some help... I can't find my country in the "Scan for channels" screen, so what do I do here? (I'm from Denmark and have Cable tv)15:00
NeoTI have tried selecting both UK and Sweden, but when I then tries to scan for channels, the screen freezes, and I have to restart the computer to get back into the backend config tool15:04
NeoThmm.. when I try to scan for channels, it just stops at 6% (after getting timeout at the first channel). Any ideas how to fix that?15:58

henrik__My mythtv does not get the thumbnails or information of movies that I have in my movie directory. I have tried adding the imdb information in properties of a movie. But it does not do any attemt of downloading the front of the movie nor any other information. Anyone who got any idea. I'm on .22.18:41
mrandI think there is a short-cut for launch a metadata search?  maybe W from within Mythvideo?19:02
henrik__I'll try that :)19:14
henrik__nope did not do it.. what do I need to specify so it knows the name of the movie?19:16
jbaughdoes anyone have experience transcoding with HDTV with either nuvexport or mythnuv2mkv?19:25
