[00:17] <guybrushthreepwo> @ MTughan__ : the following is stated in the mythbuntu 9.10 known issues: PVR-150 Blaster does not currently work
[01:49] <mersault> I'm trying to install a mythbuntu 9.10 backend only system, and at 36% complete (copying files) I
[01:49] <mersault> am suffering a kernel panic.
[02:30] <MTughan__> Does Mythbuntu include a firewall?

[03:06] <_abbenormal> where do i find logs to see why the frontend wont connect to the server
[03:07] <MTughan__> _abbenormal: Try stdout or somewhere in /var/log
[03:12] <_abbenormal> ok nothing in /var/log
[03:12] <MTughan__> /var/log/mythtv?
[03:13] <_abbenormal> no mythtv folder
[03:13] <_abbenormal> this is a frontend only
[03:13] <tgm4883> there should be a mythtv folder
[03:14] <tgm4883> !logs | _abbenormal
[03:14] <Zinn> _abbenormal: MythTV 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.
[03:14] <tgm4883> you can also run mythfrontend from the command line
[03:14] <MTughan__> Try reading http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/MythFrontend#Debugging_MythFrontend_Problems then.
[03:14] <_abbenormal> thank you something to read
[03:15] <MTughan__> Does anyone know if Mythbuntu includes a firewall by default, and how to turn it off/configure it?
[03:15] <tgm4883> MTughan__, no it does not
[03:16] <tgm4883> if it did, you should be able to do
[03:16] <tgm4883> sudo ufw status
[03:16] <MTughan__> Hmm... A frontend on another computer's not able to connect to the backend. I've checked the username, password, and database against the local frontend, and I have the right IP.
[03:17] <tgm4883> MTughan__, logs?
[03:17] <tgm4883> MTughan__, can other remote frontends connect to that backend?
[03:17] <MTughan__> tgm4883: Dunno. Don't have any other remote frontends to test ATM.
[03:18] <gbutters> MTughan__: did you enable remote support on the backend??
[03:18] <MTughan__> Yes.
[03:18] <tgm4883> MTughan__, most likely, you didn't enable the mythtv service, so mysql isn't accepting remote connections
[03:18] <tgm4883> hmm
[03:19] <MTughan__> I do see "09-12-28 10:17:09 PM	[0x0-0x14d14d].org.osx-bundler.MythFrontend[24712]	2009-12-28 22:17:09.208 MythContext: Connecting to backend server: 127.0.0.1:6543 (try 1 of 1)" in the logs, although that's definitely not the IP I entered in the frontend setup. This machine isn't running MySQL.
[03:19] <tgm4883> hmm
[03:19] <tgm4883> gbutters, whats the config file for that?
[03:19] <tgm4883> ~/.mythtv/config.xml?
[03:19] <MTughan__> This is a weekly build for OS X, so maybe it's got a bug that shows that.
[03:20] <MTughan__> Yes, that's it.
[03:20] <tgm4883> hmm
[03:20] <MTughan__> Already found it by grep.
[03:20] <tgm4883> i'd try changing that
[03:20] <MTughan__> Set to the address needed, 192.168.1.215.
[03:20] <tgm4883> I don't know much about OSX, but maybe it doesn't have permission to edit that file?
[03:20] <MTughan__> No, it is changing if I change settings, so it's not a permissions problem.
[03:21] <tgm4883> hmm
[03:21] <tgm4883> maybe a bug then?
[03:21] <MTughan__> I'll try the previous weekly build, maybe it's just a trunk bug.
[03:21] <gbutters> tgm4883: /etc/mythtv/config.xml with a symlink i the users home directory
[03:21] <tgm4883> ah
[03:22] <gbutters> tgm4883: /home/<user>/.mythtv/config.xml
[03:23] <MTughan__> gbutters: That's /Users/<users>/.mythtv/config.xml for OS X.
[03:23] <gbutters> MTughan__: I missed to OSX part
[03:24] <MTughan__> I'd test with my F11 installation, but it's surreptitiously stopped booting.
[03:25] <juanmarquez> buenas como estan
[03:25] <juanmarquez> alguien me puede ayudar?
[03:25] <tgm4883> English?
[03:26] <juanmarquez> español?
[03:26] <juanmarquez> help me
[03:26] <juanmarquez> my english is bad jejeje
[03:26] <tgm4883> juanmarquez, whats the problem?
[03:26] <juanmarquez> ok
[03:26] <juanmarquez> mmm
[03:27] <MTughan__> juanmarquez: Try translate.google.com
[03:27] <juanmarquez> i install MythU-9.10
[03:27] <juanmarquez> and is diferent to 9.04
[03:27] <juanmarquez> i need add codec win32
[03:29] <tgm4883> juanmarquez, you can do that in mythbuntu-control-centre
[03:29] <gbutters> juanmarquez: Mythbuntu Control Cccenter
[03:29] <gbutters> Center will do that for you'
[03:30] <juanmarquez> command pleace?
[03:30] <MTughan__> Hmm... Previous weekly build seems to have the same problem.
[03:33] <gbutters> juanmarquez: mythbuntu-control-centre
[03:34] <juanmarquez> ok
[03:34] <juanmarquez> thnks
[03:35] <gbutters> juanmarquez: your welcome
[03:47] <MTughan__> Found the problem on my setup too. The frontend was contacting the backend, but it was given a different IP address to connect to for the master backend. With those IP addresses corrected in the backend, the frontend works as expected.
[04:07] <_abbenormal> ok heres one for ya frontend connects to backend plays video and recordings but wont play livetv
[04:08] <tgm4883> _abbenormal, again, logs. Sounds like the backend doesn't have write permissions to the right dir
[04:08] <_abbenormal> so it may not be a frontend issue let me go back to the backend and look a bit thanks
[04:11] <_abbenormal> heres a short snip of the frontend log    http://pastebin.com/d5d8bc215
[04:12] <tgm4883> _abbenormal, need backend  logs
[06:26] <mechcozmo> i am having difficulty setting up a wireless card (Broadcom BCM4306) on Mythbuntu 9.10
[06:27] <mechcozmo> the system recognizes the card, but i cannot make it connect to my network
[06:27] <mechcozmo> can anyone lend a hand?
[09:06] <Capkirk> howto get a poweroff bullet in the mythtv menu so i can power off the mythtv box within the interface?
[09:12] <mechcozmo> in mythfrontend, you can press ESC at the root of the menu tree to exit and shutoff
[09:16] <Capkirk> hmm ill try that
[09:16] <Capkirk> is that 0.21?
[09:17] <mechcozmo> yup
[09:37] <Capkirk> mechcozmo: does not work on mine...It just askes if i want to exit mythtv Yes/No and if i choose yes i get to the desktop
[09:37] <mechcozmo> Capkirk: you're using Mythbuntu 9.10?
[09:40] <Capkirk> nope
[09:40] <Capkirk> 9.04
[09:41] <mechcozmo> hm
[09:41] <mechcozmo> maybe 9.10 has a different version of mythfrontend?
[09:42] <Capkirk> hmm maybe
[09:43] <mechcozmo> maybe update, see what happens?
[09:44] <mechcozmo> i'm not really an expert in this, still playing with my setup :-p
[09:44] <mechcozmo> sorry
[11:15] <Capkirk> i found out
[11:15] <Capkirk> one needs to edit mainmenu.xml
[14:51] <JimmyJet> Good day, Here is my question, where do I start? I ran a script to install flash on a 64 system and then things fell apart, I cannot login because something about the gnome power defaults, I can get in under failsafe, but mythbackend doens't start fails and such. anyway where should I start? Seems that under failsafe I cannot start or try to change anything. Ill provide the website that has the script I ran here in a min
[15:05] <skreem> Can anyone recommend a good capture card for the UK? I don't want to spend too much
[15:10] <JimmyJet> @Skreem do you use ATSC digital channels or is it still PAL?
[15:12] <skreem> Not sure - probably pal
[15:12] <JimmyJet> digital channels?
[15:12] <JimmyJet> or analog
[15:13] <skreem> digital
[15:16] <JimmyJet> hum, well, I can't vouch for it but the Hauppauge Pinnacle PCTV USB2 seems like it might work for you
[15:17] <JimmyJet> Should only set you back around $60 or 30 pounds ;)
[15:19] <skreem> sounds good JimmyJet
[15:20] <JimmyJet> best of luck

[22:57] <mrand> rhp: I'm not aware that anyone has tried to run or test the prepackaged 0.20 Myth on 9.10.  It may work, but I wouldn't be too surprised if there were dependency problems.
[23:38] <mazzomaz> Hi there
[23:39] <mazzomaz> I've a problem with my installation of mythbuntu 9.10 (0.23 from auto-builds, testing activated)
[23:40] <mazzomaz> when I try to configure my plugins, the myth-frotend tells me, that plugin XXX could not be configured (Could not configure mythvideo, i.e.)
[23:43] <mazzomaz> Any hints to figure out my problem?
[23:45] <klucas> Hi mazzomaz.  I wish I knew more about myth and mythbuntu but I'm new at this myself.
[23:45] <klucas> Could it be a permissioins problem?
[23:46] <klucas> I find that a lot of the times when something just flatly refuses to do something it's that the user that's trying to do it
[23:46] <klucas> doesn't have permissions to do whatever it is.
[23:47] <klucas> I'm do have a question.
[23:47] <mazzomaz> klucas, hi, thanks for your help. how can I check if there is an permission problem?
[23:47] <tgm4883> mazzomaz, where are you trying to configure the plugin?
[23:48] <klucas> What I'd like to do is have this small form factor PC that's not got a lot under the hood sitting in the living room with the tuner card and a decent video card in it but have my main PC
[23:48] <mazzomaz> tgm4883, in mythtv-frontend under Configuration
[23:48] <klucas> that's got a little more horsepower to do any of the transcoding or resource intensive stuff
[23:49] <klucas> should I set up the small form factor one as the frontend/primary database and use the main PC as the slave?
[23:49] <tgm4883> klucas, no
[23:49] <tgm4883> other way around
[23:49] <klucas> or should the beefer PC be the master back end
[23:49] <klucas> with the small one acting as the frontend/slave?
[23:49] <tgm4883> klucas, in fact, i'd put the tuner there as well
[23:49] <mazzomaz> my main-problem is, that I can't play or import some dvd. I click on "Play DVD" i.e. and myth does ... nothing
[23:50] <tgm4883> mazzomaz, what version of the plugins and what version of the frontend are you running?
[23:50] <klucas> I'd like to put the tuner in there but it's impractical with how the house is wired and where the antenna is.
[23:50] <tgm4883> ah
[23:50] <klucas> do you think that's going to be a problem?
[23:50] <tgm4883> klucas, no
[23:51] <tgm4883> just make that machine a slave to the other one
[23:51] <tgm4883> hmm
[23:51] <tgm4883> no it should be fine
[23:51] <klucas> okay cool.
[23:51] <tgm4883> just don't set the smaller machine to do any jobs
[23:51] <klucas> ah cool.
[23:52] <klucas> so the jobs will be passed off to the primary backend server in that case?
[23:52] <tgm4883> yep
[23:52] <klucas> awesome.
[23:52] <tgm4883> there is a checkbox whether you want jobs to be run on the same machine that the recording is on
[23:52] <tgm4883> you want that to be unchecked
[23:53] <klucas> Great, I'll have to double check the config on the frontend/slave.
[23:53] <klucas> Sounds good.
[23:54] <klucas> mazzomaz as for checking the permissions if you can find the directory where the plugin is then do an 'ls -l' in a terminal
[23:55] <klucas> it should show you what the permissions, owner, and group the files are/have
[23:55] <klucas> then ensure that they're set so that the user you're running the program as has permissions to read/write
[23:57] <mazzomaz> tgm4883, frontend is 0.23 from auto-builds - how can i check which version the plugins are?
[23:58] <tgm4883> mazzomaz, from a command line, do "dpkg -l mythtv-frontend"
[23:58] <tgm4883> also do "dpkg -l mythvideo"
