[00:20] <bllz> My channel change script (for my external IR blaster) is buggy.  Any 2-digit or higher channel that gets sent will only tune to the first digit. i.e.:  22 will tune to 2 and 15 will tune to 1.  Is this a problem with sleep time?
[00:26] <mechcozmo> hello, i think i am running into this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mythbuntu/+bug/470756
[00:27] <mechcozmo> i have a PVR-500, mythbuntu 9.10, fully updated
[00:27] <mechcozmo> can anyone give me some advice on workarounds?
[01:34] <bllz> My channel change script (for my external IR blaster) is buggy.  Any 2-digit or higher channel that gets sent will only tune to the first digit. i.e.:  22 will tune to 2 and 15 will tune to 1.  This *only* happens with the remote... running the script from the command line works fine.  What gives?
[01:54] <wilberfan> anyone know their way around lirc?  I can't get my remote working on my new 9.10 install... but i'm somewhat noobish...
[01:54] <wilberfan> I copied most of the config files from a working debian sid box...but not sure if that's the best solution...
[01:55] <wilberfan> the lirc daemon doesn't seem to be starting...?
[01:55] <bllz> wilberfan:  what kind of remote?
[01:56] <wilberfan> bllz, it's the grey one that comes with the haupaugge pvr-350...
[01:56] <bllz> dark-gray-almost-black with a big windows logo in the middle?
[01:56] <bllz> and 4 colored buttons at the bottom?
[01:57] <wilberfan> dark grey on top, black on the back side...  no windows logo, but yes...4 colored buttons on the bottom end...
[01:58] <bllz> hmm. okay...
[01:58] <bllz> not the one i was thinking of
[01:58] <wilberfan> http://www.accessinfoworld.com/products/images/%20Hauppauge%20WinTV-PVR-350%20TV%20Tuner%20Card_small.jpg
[01:59] <bllz> wilberfan:  did you see that remote listed when you configured lirc?
[02:00] <wilberfan> well, i've been using this remote successfully for more than a year, on, like, 3 different myth installs...
[02:00] <wilberfan> so i know it will work...   it works now on the debian sid install i have on this same box...
[02:00] <wilberfan> here's an error message i got on my last frontend startup:
[02:00] <wilberfan> LIRC, Error: Failed to connect to Unix socket '/dev/lircd'
[02:00] <wilberfan> 			eno: No such file or directory (2)
[02:01] <bllz> strange
[02:01] <wilberfan> and i get 'fail's if i do a '/etc/init.d/lirc restart
[02:01] <bllz> hmm
[02:01] <bllz> try dpkg-reconfigure lirc
[02:01] <bllz> keep your settings the same
[02:01] <bllz> and post results
[02:01] <wilberfan> do i need to do that as root?
[02:09] <wilberfan> jeez, what's the correct "IR transmitter" option?  "none", i'm guessing??  I don't have any fancy hardware in this setup...
[02:09] <wilberfan> http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com/m7f133066
[02:10] <bllz> wilberfan:  no it's probably listed there
[02:10] <bllz> you have to figure out what kind of remote you have
[02:10] <bllz> and pick it form the list
[02:10] <bllz> it should be there
[02:10] <bllz> if it's a hauppauge, it'll definitely be there
[02:11] <wilberfan> bllz, yeah, i would have...but no 'hauppauge' option...  just satellite boxes n' such...
[02:11] <bllz> uhh... are you in the remote or transmitter section?
[02:12] <wilberfan> uhh...how do i tell for sure.....?
[02:12] <bllz> run it again
[02:12] <bllz> the second menu is the transmitter section
[02:12] <bllz> the first is remotes
[02:12] <bllz> and it should be much longer
[02:12] <wilberfan> the first box that opens is "configuring lirc"...  i DID select the haup there....
[02:13] <bllz> yeah, look more closely at that
[02:13] <wilberfan> "Hauppauge TV Card"
[02:13] <bllz> that's all it says?
[02:13] <wilberfan> There are 4 other Haup options...
[02:13] <bllz> what are they?
[02:13] <wilberfan> HVR-1100
[02:14] <wilberfan> HVR-1300
[02:14] <wilberfan> Nova T-500
[02:14] <wilberfan> and TV Card
[02:14] <bllz> and what's your model?
[02:14] <wilberfan> PVR-350
[02:14] <bllz> is that an mpeg2 IVTV card?
[02:15] <wilberfan> yeah...
[02:15] <bllz> hmm... use the "Hauppauge TV Card" option
[02:15] <bllz> 350 is just a dual tuner 150, right?
[02:16] <wilberfan> not sure, to be honest...
[02:16] <bllz> i think it is
[02:16] <bllz> and for the second one, pick none unless you're using an external tuner
[02:17] <wilberfan> http://www.hauppauge.com/html/wintvpvr350_datasheet.htm
[02:17] <wilberfan> same result...
[02:17] <bllz> hmm... lirc still didn't start?
[02:18] <wilberfan> "unable to load LIRC kernel modules..."
[02:18] <bllz> sounds like you're missing just about everything lirc-related
[02:19] <wilberfan> last night i was getting good returns on an irw test...
[02:19] <bllz> did you try rebooting?
[02:21] <wilberfan> and haven't changed anything since then...
[02:26] <wilberfan> wow...that was....odd...
[02:27]  * wilberfan wonders if bllz is still onboard...
[02:29]  * bllz is still here
[02:29] <bllz> what happened?
[02:31] <wilberfan> cluster-phuck!
[02:32] <bllz> go on...
[02:32] <wilberfan> where'd we leave off?
[02:32] <wilberfan> you thought i was missing everything lirc related... but i said last night i got good returns on an irw test...
[02:36] <wilberfan> "is this thing on...?"
[02:40] <Guest22407> I'm setting up Mythbuntu Karmic on a machine with a Hauppage PVR 150 and an ATI HDTV Wonder, however I can't manage to get either to work at the moment.  I have a SchedulesDirect account, but I can't seem to get the right settings for MythTV to get my standard cable.  Can anyone help me get this setup?
[02:41] <Shadow__X> Guest22407: when setting up the pvr 150 you download the lineup
[02:41] <Shadow__X> instead of scanning
[02:42] <Guest22407> Shadow__X, Download wasn't working, I don't think.  It just said permission denied, but I did the verification for schedulesdirect, so not sure there.
[02:42] <Shadow__X> Guest22407: you have to figure out hte permission issue and make sure your username and password is correct
[02:42] <Shadow__X> also download lineup can take a bit
[02:44] <Guest22407> Where would I find my "frequency?"
[02:45] <Shadow__X> what do you mean
[02:45] <Shadow__X> this could help
[02:45] <Shadow__X> http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/User_Manual:Index
[02:45] <Guest22407> Shadow__X, It's saying downloading for something, then "unauthorized" then back to downloading, then back to unauthorized then downloading, and back and forth
[02:46] <Shadow__X> just leave it
[02:46] <Shadow__X> go for a walk it will continue downloading
[02:47] <Arpman> Hello all
[02:47] <Guest22407> Shadow__X, OH, I thought that was it failing, and keeping trying.  But this is somewhat normal I take it?
[02:47] <Shadow__X> it happens
[02:47] <Shadow__X> :)
[02:48] <Arpman> Can anyone help figure out why my ATI 9800 Pro is not cooperating?
[02:49] <Guest22407> Because when I go to watch it says "Please wait" then back to the main menu
[02:49] <Shadow__X> its a ati 9800 pro under linux
[02:49] <Shadow__X> thats why
[02:49] <Arpman> oh - well I guess I need to get another card - crap
[02:49] <Shadow__X> Guest22407: check out the manual i believe there are afew things that are not quite setup proerly yet
[02:49] <Shadow__X> Arpman: the open source drivers *should* work
[02:50] <Arpman> well it works in X, but myth does not seem to recognize it
[02:50] <Arpman> i also get an error when I run aticonfig
[02:51] <Arpman> so I'm a bit confuse
[02:51] <Arpman> d
[02:54] <Arpman> ATI=BAd?
[02:55] <Arpman> you get kicked Shadow_X?
[03:07] <tgm4883> Arpman, it was a netsplit. Which is different than being kicked
[03:10] <bllz> what's a netsplit?
[03:10] <Shadow__X> Arpman: yeah i have no powers in this room esp not kicking powers
[03:10] <Shadow__X> bllz: think of it as a time out between multiple servers
[03:11] <Shadow__X> so it took too long to respond so people get dropped
[03:11] <bllz> ooh, so if the latency gets too high, people get kicked?
[03:11] <bllz> sort of?
[03:11] <Shadow__X> in a way
[03:11] <Shadow__X> its more like a dropped call
[03:11] <bllz> oh okay
[03:12] <Shadow__X> no one is kicking them
[03:12] <bllz> well... I may as well post my question here since nobody is talking in mythtv-users
[03:12] <bllz> i have a very strange occurrence when changing channels through my blaster
[03:12] <bllz> this _only_ happens when I try to manually type in the channel number in the remote
[03:13] <bllz> it tunes to the channel, and then tunes back to the channel corresponding to one of the digits
[03:13] <bllz> so for example, if I try to tune to 32 by typing "3, 2, OK"... I'll get to 32, then it'll immediately tune to 2 twice
[03:14] <bllz> more interestingly, here's an output of my script's log when I only press 9 (and nothing else... no OK, nothing):  http://paste.ubuntu.com/341603/
[03:14] <bllz> what gives?
[03:15] <Arpman> So Shadow_X - you think I should get a new tuner card?
[03:21] <bllz> okay so how about another question... =)
[03:22] <bllz> My volume controls don't work in myth.  I can see the volume slider move, but the volume doesn't change.  same for the mute button.  I see "mute on" on the overlay, but sound still plays
[03:39] <mechcozmo> hello, i'm having problems scanning for channels in mythtv's backend config
[03:39] <mechcozmo> i think it is related to this bug:https://bugs.launchpad.net/mythbuntu/+bug/470756
[03:41] <mechcozmo> any suggestions for workarounds/fixes/etc?
[03:45] <darthanubis> i never have scanned I always use fetch channels
[03:55] <mechcozmo> darthanubis: i'm using plain vanilla cable
[03:56] <mechcozmo> darthanubis: even with schedules direct account, wouldn't i have to scan for channels?
[04:00] <darthanubis> I'm using plain vanilla cable, with SD, and have NEVER used the scan always the fetch.
[04:03] <mechcozmo> darthanubis: hmm
[04:03] <mechcozmo> darthanubis: let me get a trial account and then get back to you...
[04:17] <mechcozmo> darthanubis: still have no channels
[04:18] <mechcozmo> darthanubis: when i try to connect source to input, Starting Channel is left as "Please add channels to this source"
[04:18] <mechcozmo> darthanubis: even though i have run Fetch channels from listings source
[04:21] <darthanubis> it will chabge status after you waited for the channels to fetch fro the source
[04:22] <darthanubis> it does not happen instantaneously
[04:27] <mechcozmo> darthanubis: i hit the button to futch from source
[04:27] <mechcozmo> darthanubis: shouldn't it have retrieved all relevant information then?
[04:28] <mechcozmo> darthanubis: Fetch channels from listing source does not take a long time to run at all
[04:43] <mechcozmo> so, question: is my Fetch Listings from Source broken if it does not retrieve channel information?  how can i tell?  do i need to scan for channels?
[04:52] <mechcozmo> ah, got some channels... now let's see if i can watch TV
[05:50] <bllz> does ragetv still work in 9.10?

[16:36] <woercel> hi there
[16:37] <woercel> i'm using mythbuntu 8.10 without any updates and would like to change to mythtv 0.22
[16:37] <woercel> is this possible?
[18:16] <markl_> is there an easy procedure for using mythbuntu debs on regular ubuntu?
[18:24] <mrand> !auto-builds | markl_
[18:24] <Zinn> Sorry I don't know about auto-builds
[18:24] <mrand> !autobuilds | markl_
[18:24] <Zinn> markl_: Auto builds are available for MythTV 0.22 for Intrepid, Jaunty, and Karmic (0.22 and 0.23-trunk).  See http://www.mythbuntu.org/auto-builds for more info.  If you see references to 0.22-trunk, you can ignore the -trunk part :-)
[18:25] <mrand> markl_:  After adding the repo,  simply install mythbuntu-control-centre
[18:25] <markl_> should i uninstall the mythtv packages from the ubuntu repo?
[18:26] <markl_> or can i just do an apt-get update with the mythbuntu repos
[18:26] <mrand> oh, I guess I misunderstood your question.  Mythbuntu _IS_ based on the mythtv packages in the ubuntu repo.
[18:26] <mrand> It simply alters the bootup theme and a few other things
[18:26] <markl_> yeah i just want to get on the mythbuntu nightlies
[18:27] <mrand> For that, you just need to enable auto-builds.  don't have to remove anything.
[18:27] <mrand> It is seemless.
[18:27] <mrand> the later versions (within auto-builds) will be offered as an update after you update your repo.
[18:28] <markl_> hmm, i did apt-get upgrade and none of the myth packages were updated
[18:28] <markl_> i have this in the repos:
[18:28] <markl_> deb http://us.autobuilds.mythbuntu.org/mythbuntu/,/ubuntu helena main
[18:29] <mrand> uhhh, that looks strange to me.
[18:29] <markl_> and a couple of ppa.launchpad.net ones
[18:29] <mrand> comma in the path?  helena?
[18:29] <markl_> there was a mythbuntu-repos.deb on the site that i installed
[18:29] <markl_> helena == 9.10
[18:29] <markl_> er
[18:29] <markl_> linux mint 9.10
[18:29] <markl_> ok i see how that might cause a problem :)
[18:29] <mrand> yeah.
[18:30] <mrand> :-)
[18:31] <markl_> can i just remove the deb and then fix mythbuntu-repos.list?  why is it a deb instead of just the sources list
[18:31] <markl_> just curious
[18:33] <markl_> hmm are there autobuilds for karmic?
[18:33] <mrand> Netsplits are annoying.
[18:33] <mrand> markkl_: The developer made it more like an installer which asks which version you want to track (0.22, 0.23, or trunk as I recall)
[18:33] <markl_> i just see hardy & intrepid
[18:33] <mrand> yes, absolutely.
[18:33] <rhpot1991> markl_: yes there are
[18:33] <markl_> is this url wrong: http://us.autobuilds.mythbuntu.org/mythbuntu/ubuntu/dists/
[18:33] <markl_> rm -rf netsplits
[18:34] <mrand> http://us.autobuilds.mythbuntu.org/mythbuntu/ubuntu/dists/
[18:34] <mrand> errr
[18:34] <mrand> http://us.autobuilds.mythbuntu.org/mythbuntu/trunk-0.22/ubuntu/dists/
[18:34] <mrand> or https://launchpad.net/~mythbuntu/+archive/trunk-0.22
[18:34] <markl_> ah ok cool
[18:35] <mrand> That last one has the deb line
[18:36] <markl_> excellent, seems to be working
[18:36] <markl_> is there a gpg key?
[18:36] <markl_> annoying warnings, not really a big deal
[18:36] <markl_> and also - 0.22 doesn't seem to detect a ripped dvd iso, it just lists the VOB files in the video browser.  is this normal?
[18:36] <markl_> 0.21 seemed to do the right thing
[18:37] <mrand> !iso
[18:37] <Zinn> 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/7
[18:37] <mrand> markl_: ^
[18:38]  * mrand wonders why we haven't moved that to the mythbuntu wiki or web site.
[18:38] <markl_> why did it work in myth 0.21?
[18:38] <mrand> Mythvideo was completely redone for 0.22
[18:39] <markl_> i'm pretty happy with the ridiculous nfs server i built for mythtv
[18:39] <markl_> ah ok i can just put the isos in one area
[18:39] <mrand> The above iso thing only applies if you are using storage groups... I assume that is the case for you.
[18:39] <mrand> yep
[18:40] <markl_> i didn't set up storage groups, is that enabled by default?
[18:40] <markl_> i just have an nfs mount with all my videos, same one i used with 0.21
[18:40] <tgm4883> markl_, did you do a fresh install?
[18:40] <markl_> tgm4883: yes
[18:40] <tgm4883> did you restore your old DB?
[18:41] <markl_> no
[18:41] <markl_> i just did scan from the video menu
[18:41] <tgm4883> thats why. It is a new default in 0.22
[18:41] <tgm4883> well
[18:41] <markl_> and put my nfs path
[18:41] <markl_> in the video config
[18:41] <tgm4883> a new default in Mythbuntu's implementation of 0.22 (the storage groups)
[18:42] <markl_> the developers should have put their effort into mythmusic instead of breaking the video browser
[18:42] <markl_> mythmusic sucks hard
[18:43] <tgm4883> markl_, i'm sure you can bring that up at the next development meeting
[18:57] <markl_> ok i have /var/lib/mythtv/recordings on its own device, and the mythtv packages wouldn't update til i unmounted it
[18:57] <markl_> and it griped that the videos & music were read-only nfs mounts
[18:58] <markl_> but apart from that it seemed to work so far, thanks for the help!
[18:58] <tgm4883> hmm
[18:59] <tgm4883> mrand, ^^ thoughts?
[19:00] <mrand> tgm4883: nothing beyond the normal permissions & ownership for the path
[19:02] <superm1> markl_, would you mind putting a set -x in the postinst for the package that was failing to upgrade?
[19:02] <superm1> you'll find it in /var/lib/dpkg/info/$PACKAGE.postinst
[19:02] <superm1> and then run dpkg-reconfigure $PACKAGE
[19:02] <markl_> not at all
[19:02] <superm1> pastebin the output and we can see what's happening
[19:02] <superm1> odds are we just need a || true somewhere
[19:03] <markl_> let me see if it still happens
[19:04] <markl_> the error was unable to stat `./var/lib/mythtv/recordings' (which I was about to install): Success
[19:05] <markl_> doesn't seem to happen when i do a reconfigure
[19:05] <markl_> it did complain that mythtv-backend was already running
[19:05] <markl_> ok i'll see if i can duplicate it, hmm
[19:06]  * superm1 waves hand.
[19:06] <superm1> "These are not the drones you are looking for"
[19:34] <blz> Is there any way to get the TVrageImport script to work in in mythbuntu 9.10?  Here's a link to the project site:  http://code.google.com/p/tvrageimport/
