[01:33] <bmidgley2> with ubuntu 9.04 and mythtv, I can start mythexport jobs and I see the file growing but when the transcode finishes the file gets removed
[01:34] <bmidgley2> log at http://pastebin.com/m147afdd2
[03:04] <BjornR1989> I've mounted my windows SMB share root to /mnt/server0 but Mythbuntu doesn't seem to traverse directories.
[03:04] <BjornR1989> ls -l /mnt/server0 prints all directories.
[03:13] <BjornR1989> And the IR doesn't function.
[03:13] <BjornR1989> An IR debugger would be nice, is there one available for Mythbuntu?
[04:12] <rhpot1991> bmidgley2: have you tried running ffmpeg by hand to verify that it doesn't fail?
[04:26] <rhpot1991> BjornR1989: man irw
[04:27] <rhpot1991> that requires your ir to be in a somewhat usable state though
[04:33] <BjornR1989> I've found a Python script to map my remote and it works but it can't be integrated in MythTV
[04:34] <BjornR1989> trying man irw now
[04:37] <BjornR1989> I need to know what socket it should connect to. Without a socket it doesn't print anything.
[04:38] <BjornR1989> Thanks for helping.
[04:38] <rhpot1991> /dev/lirc0 prob
[04:40] <BjornR1989> Nothing lirc* in /dev except for a symlink lircd to /var/run/lirc/lircd
[04:42] <BjornR1989> The Python script ( http://pastebin.com/f2a162e62 ) works so i was thinking of redirecting its keystrokes to MythTV
[04:42] <BjornR1989> Time for some Python for dummies.
[04:56] <rhpot1991> did you set your remote up in MCC?
[04:58] <BjornR1989> I 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] <BjornR1989> I wonder why MCC doesn't contain an IR test.
[04:59] <rhpot1991> BjornR1989: google and the ubuntu forums are generally the best bet for finding out how to set it up
[04:59] <rhpot1991> unless you get lucky enough to find someone here who has the same remote (you won't)
[04:59] <BjornR1989> I've got some steps further thanks to google.
[04:59] <rhpot1991> thats not a common remote
[04:59] <BjornR1989> It's common for Asus AI motherboards.
[05:13]  * BjornR1989 has just discovered the xev command
[05:15] <BjornR1989> Ok, the python script can now communicate with the IR receiver, now i need to find a way to redirect the virtual keystrokes to MythTV.
[05:23] <Chaorain> I'm upgrading my os from 32 bit to 64 bit. How do I save my recorded TV shows?
[05:27] <BjornR1989> I'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.
[05:28] <Chaorain> Well I've upgraded my OS before and just copying them doesn't work
[05:29] <BjornR1989> Good to know when i'll upgrade.
[05:30] <rhpot1991> ChanServ: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Database_Backup_and_Restore
[05:30] <rhpot1991> Chaorain: ^
[05:33] <Chaorain> thanks
[05:45] <BjornR1989> The IR remote functions properly now.
[05:45] <BjornR1989> The python script automatically redirects its output to the focused window (being MythTV)
[06:27] <bmidgley2> rhpot1991: actually the problem seems to be AtomicParseley not recognizing the transcoded file
[08:54] <jbaugh> does anyone have experience transcoding with HDTV with either nuvexport or mythnuv2mkv?
[08:55] <jbaugh> I 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)
[08:56] <jbaugh> -- just looking for what things I may look at.  mencoder and ffmpeg are the same version on both machines
[08:57] <jbaugh> ubuntu 9.10 - myth 0.22
[09:33] <BjornR1989> Where can i report HUGE translation errors?
[09:33] <BjornR1989> Or even better: correct them?
[09:46] <BjornR1989> Odd...
[09:46] <BjornR1989> It doesn't read DVD's, it doesn't play audio files, it can't find video files...
[15:00] <NeoT> i'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)
[15:04] <NeoT> I 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 tool
[15:58] <NeoT> hmm.. 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?
[17:19] <ingcomrbr> Hi there..
[17:19] <ingcomrbr> I am curretly installinh mythubunyu
[17:19] <ingcomrbr> but... It is askign me by Infraed Remotes and Transmiters..
[17:20] <ingcomrbr> So is it the remote control from the TV card?
[17:22] <tgm4883> yes
[17:24] <ingcomrbr> ok.. I got GIGABYTE remote control..
[17:24] <ingcomrbr> but is not listed into the combo box..
[17:24] <ingcomrbr> what Do I choose?
[18:04] <mrand> ingcomrbr: it is possibly a windows media center remote.   Try that.
[18:10] <ingcomrbr> ok thank you.
[18:26] <tgm4883> !mceusb
[18:26] <Zinn> Sorry I don't know about mceusb
[18:26] <tgm4883> meh

[18:41] <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.
[19:02] <mrand> I think there is a short-cut for launch a metadata search?  maybe W from within Mythvideo?
[19:14] <henrik__> I'll try that :)
[19:16] <henrik__> nope did not do it.. what do I need to specify so it knows the name of the movie?
[19:25] <jbaugh> does anyone have experience transcoding with HDTV with either nuvexport or mythnuv2mkv?

[20:42] <pyrosanstdio> why are my videos heavily pixlated ?
