[01:03] <Shadow__X> superm1: are you around
[01:03] <Shadow__X> afew days ago you told me to enable the testing mythtbuntu source for an updated mythtv_status is that true
[01:23] <cjtinant> My frontend keeps freezing;   while watching livetv, navigating menus, playback of recorded tv....
[01:24] <cjtinant> Using 9.10 64bit; installed yesterday....  Got most everything working, just keep getting a hard lock!
[01:32] <cjtinant> Frontend Log:  http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com/d5894fb33
[01:33] <cjtinant> Backend Log: http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com/d5582dd8
[01:33] <cjtinant> Had to delete several lines from the backend log file ---> too large.....   SEVERAL enteries: [mpeg2video @ 0x7f77bc160820]Missing picture start code
[01:37] <cjtinant> Any help guys???
[01:42] <cjtinant> Also, NOT getting the preview for Recordings....  Just a STILL picture; beginning of preview.
[01:43] <cjtinant> I dont know what to do and am unable to locate any information on repairing this....  Would rather NOT do ANOTHER installation!!!  3 days into getting this Frontend/Backend setup...
[02:25] <Bernmeister> cjtinant: No idea what's causing your issues, but when I was installing, I made several backup images using CloneZilla.  Made life easy to go back to a known/working state in case something broke, etc.
[02:43] <cjtinant> Thanks Bernmeister...
[02:44] <cjtinant> Frontend just locked again...    Have to do a Hard Shutdown....  any help???
[03:18] <cjtinant> Anyone available to assist me with my Frontend spontaneously crashing???
[03:34] <cjtinant> Just had another crash....   Now after HARD restart, TV doesnt work and there is no RECORDED shows......   "Pulling my Hair Out"!!!
[03:45] <cjtinant> :-X
[03:45] <cjtinant> ANYONE.... Tables are broke and cannot get into MSQL to repair.
[03:45] <cjtinant> sudo dpkg-reconfigure mythtv-common
[03:45] <cjtinant> Password is NOT working!!!
[03:55] <tgm4883> Shadow__X, I don't think that mythtv_status is in the testing repo
[03:56] <tgm4883> do you know what package it is in?
[04:36] <qcjn> hi, is there an how to for myth tv, on ubuntu..I have ubuntu 9.10, pvr-150 mce, nvidia GeForce4 MX 4000. 2.5 Ghz and 1 Gb of ram...something really explicite ?
[04:39] <qcjn> i have GB-PVR on winXP, but it s been a long time since i haen't used it, since i never use XP, anymore, just Ubuntu, and puppy linux
[04:41] <Shadow__X> tgm4883: no i am not sure but it was to get my motd working with mythtv and i had to enable a cetrain repo for it to work again
[04:41] <Shadow__X> or not motd but the login message in ssh i forgot what thatgs called
[04:43] <tgm4883> Shadow__X, if you are looking for updated mythtv packages, that is in the auto-builds repo
[04:43] <tgm4883> you get that by selecting it when installing mythbuntu-repos
[04:43] <cjtinant> qcjn: I couldnt locate the 9.10 manual myself; page-link is is broke....  For help with installation sourec: http//www.huihoo.com/mythbuntu/mythbuntu-8.04-installation.pdf
[04:44] <cjtinant> huihoo.com/mythbuntu/mythbuntu-8.04-installation.pdf
[04:44] <qcjn> cjtinant, do you mean, installing from source ? cause i never done that ?
[04:44] <qcjn> thought i could install it directly from apt-get
[04:45] <cjtinant> qcjn: not sure....   I use the iso file found at mythbuntu.com
[04:46] <cjtinant> Did find help at http://www.mythtv.org/wiki
[04:47] <qcjn> iso, is an install of this as a OS, but i 'd like to add it to the ubuntu i have now
[04:47] <qcjn> and the link doesn't work
[04:50] <cjtinant> Sorry, try this;  http://docs.huihoo.com/mythbuntu/mythbuntu-8.04-installation.pdf
[04:50] <mrand> qcjn: http://www.mythbuntu.org/existing-ubuntu link seems like it works for me.
[04:50] <mrand> But you could always just add mythbuntu-control-centre with apt-get also.
[04:51] <mrand> http://www.mythbuntu.org/documentation/mythbuntu_9.04_installation.pdf is slightly more up-to-date, although admittedly still old (and internally not much different than the 8.10 manual, which is probably why it says 8.10 on the title page)
[04:51] <qcjn> mrand, i m brand new to this, on linux, cause under win, you just install , one thing
[04:52] <qcjn> i know about server and client
[04:52] <qcjn> i already use , mpd, + gmpc.... or ssh and client...etc
[04:52] <mrand> qcjn: Ubuntu is mostly like that as well, but Myth is slightly more complex, so it does require a bit of configuring.  Mythbuntu-control-centre helps with that a lot.
[04:53] <qcjn> ok
[04:55] <mrand> I'm off to bed.  Hopefully you don't run into any problems, but if you do, hopefully someone can chime in to help... but it is getting kind of late, so  feel free to search the forums - almost all problems have been encountered before by someone else!
[04:56] <qcjn> what i d like, is to install something , in the ubuntu, i have now..So myth-buntu, would be the thing ?
[04:57] <Shadow__X> tgm4883: yeah i know i have that selected already i was referring to myth-status doesnt thatg display mythtv related information when you log in through ssh
[05:01] <qcjn> mrand, merci ! cjtinant aussi :)
[05:01] <cjtinant> qcjn:   http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/User_Manual:Initial_Installation
[05:02] <qcjn> ok
[05:02] <qcjn> merci !
[05:03] <qcjn> cjtinant, that looks to complex for me, for now :|
[05:04] <cjtinant> sorry then,  that would be how to install from source...
[05:04] <qcjn> thanks anyway
[05:15] <rhpot1991> qcjn: http://www.mythbuntu.org/existing-ubuntu
[05:15] <qcjn> rhpot1991, thanks
[05:15] <rhpot1991> or sudo apt-get install mythbuntu-control-centre
[05:16] <rhpot1991> and then it will be there like that screenshot
[05:16] <rhpot1991> start there and you can look at the pdf mrand pasted for reference as to what is what
[05:16] <rhpot1991> its older but it should do
[05:16] <rhpot1991> not sure where our new one went to...
[05:18] <qcjn> maybe id be better of with apt-get install mythbuntu-control-center ... maybe it s the most recent
[05:18] <qcjn> reading right now the pdf
[05:19] <rhpot1991> that installs the control-centre which will help you install all the goods
[05:20] <qcjn> ok
[05:22] <qcjn> ok, thanks guy's , i ' ll be back..have to go to sleep now...so saved the pdf...i ll read that
[05:25] <cjtinant> rhpot1991:  where were you earlier....  I finally got my Frontend configured and working, then a series of crashes which corrupted MYSQL...  After fiddiling with it for a while I decided to reinstall....
[05:26] <cjtinant> Can you check to see if I set this up correctly; moving files to another location.....
[05:28] <cjtinant> http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com/d3d155178
[05:28] <cjtinant> Created a txt file with Ultra Edit
[05:37] <rhpot1991> cjtinant: looks pretty good, whats the point of it all though?
[05:37] <rhpot1991> is /htpc a different drive?
[05:38] <rhpot1991> also chmod -R (recursive) will help you with some of those
[05:44] <tritium> Good evening, rhpot1991.  What's the latest on the hdhomerun_config_gui packaging?
[05:45] <rhpot1991> tritium: in theory its done
[05:45] <rhpot1991> waiting for the new lib* to be reviewed then I'll get the gui through revu
[05:45] <rhpot1991> its on the testing PPA now
[05:46] <tritium> Fantastic!  Nice work.
[05:47] <tritium> Sounds like it'll be on track for inclusion in 10.04, which will be great.
[05:48] <rhpot1991> tritium: heh I try, ya it should make it in no problems
[05:48] <rhpot1991> and it should be pretty easy to just drop their new code with each release
[05:49] <tritium> Awesome.
[05:49] <cjtinant> rhpot1991: the /htpc is my storage drive....
[05:50] <rhpot1991> cjtinant: why not mount that to /var/lib/mythtv ?
[05:50] <rhpot1991> instead of symlinking (both will work, just wondering if there is a reason)
[05:51] <cjtinant> Thougth if I have to reinstall Mythtv, the link is broke and I will lose the data....   Im still a noob at this
[05:51] <rhpot1991> cjtinant: nah, its just directories with files, and all the important info is in your db as well
[05:51] <rhpot1991> cjtinant: another option too is to just leave them where they are and in mythtv-setup point all the directories at your /htpc/blah
[05:52] <rhpot1991> thats how I used to do it before I gave in and left it be
[05:52] <cjtinant> I dont know ANYTHING about the databackup
[05:52] <rhpot1991> db == database
[05:52] <cjtinant> So, Just setup the additional directories in MythBackend option 6?
[05:53] <cjtinant> I know the acronym, just dont know anything about it.... Didnt know it existed until I setup 9.10.....  Last build I was on was 8.04
[05:54] <rhpot1991> your method should work fine, but the most direct method would be moving everything from /var/lib/mythtv into your /htpc, then deleting /var/lib/mythtv and mounting /htpc in /var/lib/mythtv
[05:54] <rhpot1991> if I'm confusing you just ignore me and go ahead :)
[05:54] <rhpot1991> there isn't a wrong way here
[05:55] <cjtinant> ok, will use the file I made as it is easy to do....   Just cut and paste...
[05:56] <cjtinant> Back to the - R (recursive)....   sudo chmod 775 -r /htpc/video/trailers
[05:56] <cjtinant> Is that right?
[05:56] <rhpot1991> cap R
[05:57] <rhpot1991> and you can do sudo chmod -R 755 /htpc
[05:57] <rhpot1991> and it will hit them all
[05:57] <rhpot1991> same thing for chown
[05:57] <rhpot1991> instead of having a dozen lines
[05:57] <cjtinant> ahhh....  Dont need to do /htpc/*
[05:58] <rhpot1991> adjust as needed
[05:58] <cjtinant> k...  thanks....
[06:08] <cjtinant> So with the settings I changed in file structure, I will NOT need to make changes in Mythtv-setup
[06:10] <rhpot1991> well you still need to setup everything in there like your tuners
[06:10] <rhpot1991> but you wont need to modify the storage groups, those point at the default locations already
[06:12] <cjtinant> rhpot1991: thank you!!!  I struggle getting setting this up and occasionally come across bad information from the net.  Think it would have been best to set the mount point for the drive as /var/lib/mythtv
[06:14] <cjtinant> Question that has plauged me for some time....   When setting the partitions in a NEW installation, the mount point for the second drive is not shown....  Does that mean anything?
[06:14] <rhpot1991> prob that its not mounted anywhere by default
[06:15] <rhpot1991> you could make a drive hold /home or /var if you wanted, etc
[06:16] <cjtinant> example  sdb1:  NOTHING is shown...  If I had set the mount point to /var/lib/mythtv from a previous installation, upon reinstallation the path does not show when setting the partitions.
[06:17] <cjtinant> I assume it is still there, just the partition software does not check previous mount points?
[06:18] <cjtinant> Ah, would need to FSTAB after installation to set the mount point....
[06:19] <cjtinant> I believe that would be the answer anyways.
[07:04] <mmarre> Good morning. I am using the latest Mythbuntu together with a Technisat Skymaster HD2 (DVB-C). Everything is working fine except there is no program list available (EPG). Any hints? It worked well under mythdora.
[07:26] <Essobi> mmarre: umm... run mythtv-setup
[07:26] <Essobi> make sure you have the epg setup right
[07:26] <Essobi> and let it populate the database when it's done running
[07:47] <mmarre> Thx, but i did that already. I Also updated the database manually since I read in a transponder list manually (channels.conf) I set for all channels useonairguide=1
[07:47] <mmarre> But still not work.
[07:49] <mmarre> I also deleted the confoguration with "delete ALL cards" in mythtv-setup to erase the configuration in the database and reconfigured the card
[07:49] <mmarre> No success.
[07:50] <mmarre> Is there a way to check if something coming over the EPG stream?
[07:50] <mmarre> Maybe it is a provider topic
[07:57] <cjtinant> mmarre:  Not sure if this will be of help:  http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Channel_tuning_broken_with_DVB-C#modified_mythic.pl_solution
[08:04] <Essobi> Mmm.
[11:25] <hipitihop> I'm about to install a second usb tuner, anything I should know before I start ?

[16:23] <Abongile> Hi All please help, can't log in. I select the user and insert the passwod, on enter the login screen dissapears and returns, expecting user selection and password.
[16:26] <Abongile> I could logon before but I ran ltsp-rebuild-client and the problem occured before I could log on but had no distributed media services and that's what I thought I was addressing with rebuild client.
