sean_used to use windows 6 years ago, fumbled with matching os's with disks, periodic crash and reinstalls then discovered linux...trying all I settled into Ubuntu02:09
sean_found Mythbuntu and love it02:10
sean_got a backend installed, and a remote front end02:10
sean_recordings work but no music or videos02:11
sean_on my frontend though music setting was smb://cyberanus/music02:11
sean_cyberanus being the server 192.168.1.46 and /music being /var/lib/mythtv/music02:12
sean_there is a share on the server that i can see on a ubuntu for music02:15
iamlindoroYou can't use smb links as file locations in myth, you need to mount it and point it at the mountpoint02:16
sean_on my frontend I have no network capibility02:16
sean_in my fstab02:17
sean_this is in my fstab 192.168.1.46:/var/lib/mythtv/music /mnt/music nfs02:18
sean_I know it's not really a mythtv problem02:20
sean_mount.nfs: mount point /mnt/music does not exist02:46
superm1sean_, you are trying to mount it at /mnt/music03:52
superm1you need to either 1) make /mnt/music 2) mount it elsewhere03:52
* hipitihop waves happy new year to all residents09:00
hipitihopProbably the wrong medium to report but I get the following error from mythweb when I hist the search button in listings: "Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 82 bytes) in /usr/share/mythtv/mythweb/includes/translate.php on line 142"09:01
ahugheshey guys, I just got 9.10 and I can't find gpartition on the live cd... is it hidden some place? I want to setup dual boot.10:34
sean_nfs file share for remote frontend14:23
sean_backend is locatated at 192.168.1.46 named cyberanus14:23
sean_/var/lib/mythtv/music is shared on server14:24
sean_now I need to connect from my backend on 192.168.1.43 named seans-desktop14:24
sean_what should my fstab entry look like?14:24
sean_on my frontend14:25
sean_i guess 192.168.1.46:/var/lib/mythtv/music /var/lib/mythtv/music nfs14:28
sean_this to me would replace the address of /var/lib/mythtv/music on my frontend14:28
sean_with the files on the backend14:29
sean_mythtv frontend see's the music and videos but can't load them14:29
DickesChey there. is there a way to get the mythvidexport.py script (http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/6680) to work in mythbuntu 9.10?14:49
sean_i think you just copy and run14:49
DickesCdoesnt work ;) used version 12, because i'm not using trunk. doesn't even work on the command line.14:50
sean_/usr/share/mythtv/mythvideo/scripts14:51
sean_chown it14:52
DickesChttp://mythbuntu.pastebin.com/m607d046214:52
sean_sorry i don't know what im talking about.14:53
DickesCbut maybe you know a simple way of moving recordings to the video directory? no scanning for metadata, just moving the recordings and changing the filename?14:56
sean_im 2 yrs in and still kinda new at the tweaking part14:57
sean_ive got a backend and remote frontend14:57
DickesC:)14:58
sean_no music or video because i can't point the the shared music and video on the backend14:58
sean_from my frontend14:59
sean_fstab issue i guess14:59
sean_as for moving recordings14:59
DickesCisnt that easy in mythbuntu 9.10? my notebook works as remote frontend, getting videos from the external harddrive at the backend computer.15:00

sean_i have 9.10 and am still having problems...did i undo a default setting trying to set it up15:01

sean_my fstab entry15:25
olejlsean_: this is what my fstab entry looks like: 192.168.0.3:/media/pictures/media/picturesnfsrsize=8192,wsize=8192,timeo=14,intr15:37

bcgrown!help lirc18:38
Zinn!help lirc For a  complete list of my knowledge visit: http://www.baablogic.net/Zinn.cgi  Other available commands: !status, !about, !bug [bug_number].18:38
bcgrownHas anybody made lirc+mythfrontend play nice with suspend/resume?  If I manually "sudo pm-suspend" and then resume and start mythfrontend, everything works fine.  If I allow mythwelcome to suspend the pc (with the command "sudo pm-suspend"),  then when I wake up, mythfrontend won't respond to the remote.18:50
bcgrownIn both cases, mythfrontend is started from a script in /etc/pm/sleep.d with a "DISPLAY=:0.0 sudo -u dave mythfrontend & >/dev/null" command18:52
bcgrownI get this error: 2010-01-03 11:01:11.854 LIRC, Error: Failed to read config file '/home/mythtv/.lircrc' in /var/log/pm-suspend.log,  but only when the suspend is done by MythWelcome, not if I do it manually.19:06
bcgrownAny takers?19:08
DHRhow does one shut down the backend on an upstart-based system (ubuntu 9.10)?  The old way (/etc/init.d/mythbackend stop) no longer works.19:18
rhpot1991DHR the old way should still work19:19
rhpot1991sudo /etc/init.d/mythtv-backend stop19:20
rhpot1991sudo stop mythtv-backend is how you do it in upstart19:21
DHRrhpot1991: thanks19:24
DHRstop mythtv-backend19:26
Reidhey, is it possible to burn a dvd that holds more than 2hrs of video AND play on a normal dvd player?21:06
ReidI'm ripping a tv series and i made one dvd last night, it seems like it works normal on my dvd player but everywhere online says more than 2 hrs isn't possible.21:07
ReidI don't have the remote control for my dvd player so I can't check each episode, but the dvd menu comes up and the first episode plays, each episode is 22mins and I've got 23 episodes on 1 dvd.21:09
MistStlkranyone have luck setting up an NES emulator under mythgame?22:09
bcgrownMistStlkr, haven't tried setting it up with mythgame, but zsnes works well otherwise22:13

MistStlkrSomeone suggested Mednafen, but it says the .nes files are an unsupported format22:14
bcgrownoh brain fart, i forgot it was SNES22:14
MistStlkrno worries... snes is the next project, I'll keep zsnes in mind, thanks22:14
