| Daviey | superm1: did you rm /work-fixes ? | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| superm1 | what's that? | 00:00 |
| superm1 | you mean the work directory for building? | 00:01 |
| Spanner3003 | hi i have pulse audio and alsa installed on a mythbuntu system with a hauppauge nova-s sat tv card a asus m2n-e sli mothboard with onboard sound that is seen in mythbuntu as a usb device and it all seems to work fine but in myth backend i have alsa, pulse audio, /dev/dsp1 and /dev/dsp2 but only /dev/dsp2 gives me sound in tv | 00:01 |
| Daviey | yeah, mythbuntu-weekly-build/work-trunk is empty - but in bzr | 00:01 |
| Daviey | superm1: but work-fixes isn't | 00:01 |
| superm1 | interesting | 00:02 |
| superm1 | was it ever? | 00:02 |
| Daviey | *shrug* | 00:02 |
| * Daviey checks | 00:02 | |
| superm1 | if it was and it was removed, that was probably an accident | 00:02 |
| Daviey | superm1: "bzr launchpad-open" best command ever | 00:03 |
| superm1 | what's that? | 00:03 |
| superm1 | i've never heard of such a command | 00:03 |
| superm1 | oh neat, it pulls open a web browser | 00:04 |
| superm1 | i dunno, i usually find bzr-gtk to be quick | 00:04 |
| Daviey | oh, you use bzr-gtk? | 00:04 |
| superm1 | normally, it's way quicker than trying to find a commit in a web interface i think | 00:04 |
| superm1 | at least for the things i use bzr for | 00:05 |
| Daviey | superm1: commit 141, i think it was an accident | 00:06 |
| mazda01 | what does this mean from the mythweb backend status page; "space used by deleted recordings: 27,847 MB" I want to clear that space out, I am running out of space and I don't want deleted recordings taking up space | 00:10 |
| jolaren | If there's anyone whose good at sasc-ng and phoenix readers I'd be delighted to ask a few questions regardin it | 00:11 |
| Zinn | jolaren: sasc-ng is a method to ILLEGALLY receive cable or satellite broadcasts via a fake software dvb-s/c device. It is forbidden from being discussed in #ubuntu-mythtv, #ubuntu-mythtv-dev, #mythtv-users, and #mythtv. If you would like to learn more about it, please refer to its developers and keep any and all discussions about it there. | 00:11 |
| jolaren | Ok | 00:11 |
| jolaren | So sorry. | 00:11 |
| jolaren | It is not illegal tho in Sweden nor Japan.. But I will keep teh discussions out of here If It's prohibited | 00:12 |

| tazzmanian | hi all i have this error when trying to get mythexport to work Incompatible protocol version (52 != 50) at /usr/local/share/perl/5.10.0/MythTV.pm line 649. can anyone help | 02:45 |
| rhpot1991 | tazzmanian: your perl modules do not match the backend version you are running | 02:46 |
| rhpot1991 | different ubuntu/mythtv versions? | 02:47 |
| tazzmanian | sorry for the duplicate thought my nick was invisible | 02:47 |
| tazzmanian | so how do i fix this | 02:47 |
| rhpot1991 | tazzmanian: well what does your mythtv setup look like, is it a single box or multiples? | 02:48 |
| tazzmanian | single box on ubuntu karmic with atitv pci card mythtv version 2.2 | 02:50 |
| tazzmanian | mythweb works but when i delete videos the are still listed | 02:52 |
| tazzmanian | I have purged and reinstalled twice both mythtv and mysql and it seems problem always is there | 02:52 |
| rhpot1991 | for your delete issue, either wait or run mythtv-setup and disable slow deletes | 03:00 |
| rhpot1991 | are you running autobuilds? | 03:01 |
| tazzmanian | i don't think so | 03:03 |
| tazzmanian | so how do i completely delete and get the correct versions installed | 03:04 |
| tazzmanian | ? | 03:04 |
| rhpot1991 | pastebin dpkg -l |grep mythtv | 03:04 |
| rhpot1991 | !pastebin | tazzmanian | 03:04 |
| Zinn | tazzmanian: when pasting more than 5 lines of data please use http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com so you don't flood the channel. Then please post the link in the channel. | 03:04 |
| tazzmanian | ok sorry on my screen it was 2 the rest was just entries but i will keep it in mind | 03:08 |
| rhpot1991 | no, I'm telling you to pastebin that command | 03:10 |
| tazzmanian | oohhhhhhhh i see was just doing when you ansewered | 03:10 |
| tazzmanian | http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com/rWpseqsd i think this is the url | 03:12 |
| greenwom | Still hoping for some insight on the HVR-1950 tuner | 03:38 |
| rhpot1991 | tazzmanian: what about dpkg -l |grep libmyth-perl | 03:46 |
| tazzmanian | nothing i just purged everything to try and get it right | 03:48 |
| tgm4883 | greenwom, I don't have one, so can't help much. Did you see this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=994566 | 03:48 |
| Zinn | [ubuntuforums.org] [SOLVED] Can't Get Hauppauge hvr-1950 to install - Ubuntu Forums | 03:48 |
| greenwom | tgm4883: ya I have, still can't get it going.... very frustrating | 03:49 |
| tgm4883 | greenwom, whats the full issue again? | 03:49 |
| tazzmanian | wait i have something | 03:50 |
| greenwom | can't get video out of it, I think it is a driver / firmware issue with pvrusb2 | 03:50 |
| tazzmanian | http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com/dzMfB8sN here is the perl message | 03:51 |
| tgm4883 | greenwom, can you get video out of it outside of mythtv? | 03:51 |
| greenwom | not yet, looking for a easy way to test | 03:51 |
| greenwom | device not ok (is part of the error when trying to scan channels | 03:53 |
| tgm4883 | hmm | 03:53 |
| tgm4883 | what version of mythtv/mythbuntu | 03:54 |
| greenwom | 9.10 | 03:54 |
| greenwom | mythbuntu\ | 03:54 |
| greenwom | I've tried extracting the firmware myself, downloading the devs, | 03:56 |
| greenwom | what should I use to test. the device shows up as /dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend | 04:03 |
| tgm4883 | hmm | 04:04 |
| tgm4883 | I think* you might be able to cat that to a file for a bit, then try playing the file in another media player | 04:04 |
| tgm4883 | cat /dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend > test.mpg | 04:04 |
| tgm4883 | something like that | 04:05 |
| tgm4883 | then after 10 seconds, you can ctrl+c it | 04:05 |
| tgm4883 | i'm cooking dinner, so i'm in and out for a bit | 04:05 |
| greenwom | invalid argument..... | 04:12 |
| greenwom | it does create an empty file though | 04:12 |
| tazzmanian | would the fact that mythexport is version 2.13 while everything else is 2.22 be a problem | 04:20 |
| greenwom | this is what happens when I try to watch"Error: mythtv is using all inputs, but there is no active recordings" | 04:21 |
| rhpot1991 | tazzmanian: its not a mythexport issue, your bindings are failing cause they aren't matching with the backend version | 04:27 |
| rhpot1991 | if you purged all your mythtv packages you will need to set those backup before you can do anythign else | 04:27 |
| rhpot1991 | and based on your last pastebin you don't have libmyth-perl or libmythtv-perl installed | 04:28 |
| tazzmanian | ok i reinstalled and mythweb works but not mythexport how do i fix the bindings here is the new url after install | 04:32 |
| tazzmanian | http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com/5rsZ3gSL | 04:33 |
| rhpot1991 | sudo apt-get install libmyth-perl | 04:34 |
| greenwom | out | 04:34 |
| greenwom | back in - reloaded the firmware.... still no go. Will post my paste bin (again HRV-1950 mythbuntu 9.10) | 04:35 |
| tazzmanian | rhpot1991 it is installed when i reinstalled just tried again | 04:36 |
| rhpot1991 | tazzmanian: so restart mythexport then, sudo /etc/init.d/mythexport restart | 04:37 |
| tazzmanian | No /usr/bin/perl found running; none killed. is what i got | 04:39 |
| greenwom | http://pastebin.com/jcCf3ygQ | 04:39 |
| greenwom | let me know if there's any help (have to run to a baby please email if you have an idea mjgreenwood at gmail d0t com | 04:40 |
| rhpot1991 | tazzmanian: sounds right, wasn't an instance running so it didn't kill one, it should have still spawned a new one | 04:40 |
| tazzmanian | and status says mythexport isn't running | 04:40 |
| rhpot1991 | status where? | 04:41 |
| tazzmanian | sudo /etc/init.d/mythexport status and apache error log gives me the same error incompatible protocol as earlier | 04:42 |
| rhpot1991 | tazzmanian: http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com/gDDCchT0 | 04:52 |
| rhpot1991 | tazzmanian: run that and see what happens | 04:53 |

| rhpot1991 | tazzmanian: is this a fresh install, or upgraded box? | 05:25 |
| tazzmanian | upgraded | 05:25 |

| rhpot1991 | /usr/share/perl5/IO/Socket/INET/MythTV.pm | 05:27 |
| rhpot1991 | the others are most likely left over from the past install, go ahead rename them to MythTV.pm_bak or something | 05:29 |
| rhpot1991 | then run that test script again | 05:29 |
| tazzmanian | ok got connected | 05:34 |

| Jay2k1 | it says, please file a bug on launchpad, launchpad being a link, but it's invisible (color:white in the span style tag) | 14:28 |
| mrand | Jay2k1: thanks. Just to be sure, you aren't saying that they are broken - just that the text is unreadable, right? | 15:00 |
| Jay2k1 | tbh I didnt test, sec | 15:01 |
| Jay2k1 | works | 15:01 |
| Jay2k1 | so yes, just unreadable due to white on white | 15:02 |
| Lizard123 | Hello, I'm having file size issues, 2GB per minute, sometimes 1.5GB of space disk. I think that's too much for a recording of 5 minutes a files at above 10GB | 15:10 |
| Lizard123 | I'm using a TV analog capture card | 15:11 |
| Lizard123 | !patience | 15:44 |
| Zinn | Sorry I don't know about patience | 15:44 |
| Lizard123 | !help | 15:44 |
| Zinn | !help For a complete list of my knowledge visit: http://www.baablogic.net/Zinn.cgi Other available commands: !status, !about, !bug [bug_number]. | 15:44 |
| rhpot1991 | Lizard123: what kind of tuner? | 15:45 |
| Lizard123 | rhpot1991: TV Card Kworld using "saa" driver | 15:46 |
| rhpot1991 | can't say I'm familiar with that card, check your recording profiles and maybe turn down the bitrates | 15:47 |
| Lizard123 | rhpot1991: thanks, how could I do that? I'm really a noob, I'm using a default installation of Karmic mythbuntu9.10 | 15:50 |
| rhpot1991 | Lizard123: its in the setup menu of your frontend | 15:50 |
| rhpot1991 | I forget the exact location | 15:51 |
| Lizard123 | rhpot1991: do you consider that 2GB/min using an analog TV card input source is normal? I've asked on mythtv and they told me I'm using a framegrabber, I don't know what it is. Also they have told me to ask help here to upgrade, could it be a bug? | 15:53 |
| rhpot1991 | that seems excessive to me, but I've never used a framegrabber before so | 15:54 |
| Lizard123 | I really want this to work. Could you recommend any card that can record input from cable not being so resource intensive? | 15:56 |
| rhpot1991 | Lizard123: well analog is tricky at this point, since it is disappearing quickly, and a lot of the analog cards are no longer made | 15:58 |
| rhpot1991 | you could look for a hauppauge pvr-xxx (150,350,500) on ebay | 15:58 |
| mrand | or if you want external, PVR-USB2 also works well (is what I bought off ebay) | 15:59 |
| Lizard123 | I don't know what's normal on mythtv and what is not. For an hour of recording of TV show, how much space is written? please | 16:01 |
| rhpot1991 | Lizard123: SD or HD? | 16:03 |
| Lizard123 | rhpot1991: HD(High definition) ? | 16:05 |
| rhpot1991 | ya | 16:05 |
| Lizard123 | rhpot1991: well, definition in my case never minds | 16:05 |
| Lizard123 | that would be SD I guess | 16:07 |
| rhpot1991 | SD will run you about 2-4gb an hour last I checked, HD will run you 8gb an hour or so | 16:07 |
| Lizard123 | rhpot1991: that is reasonable to me, but why I have 2GB/min? I'll try with Hauppage PVR | 16:08 |
| rhpot1991 | Lizard123: I'd have to guess either something weird with your framegrabber or your bitrates are too high | 16:09 |
| mrand | Lizard123: If it is doing framegrabbing without video compression, I can't say 2GB/min surprises me. Most capture cards now-a-days do compression. | 16:10 |
| rhpot1991 | ya I've never used a framegrabber so I really don't know | 16:10 |
| Lizard123 | mrand: could I use one of that cards in my case? I only have a coaxial cable, not digital television or anything above that | 16:11 |
| mrand | Lizard123: are you in the USA? Are you capturing directly from cable, or do you have a set-top box? | 16:12 |
| Lizard123 | not in USA, just a cable male coaxial that you insert behind TV, sorry but I'm not that expert | 16:13 |
| Lizard123 | mrand: not in USA, just a cable male coaxial that you insert behind TV, sorry but I'm not that expert | 16:15 |
| mrand | I'd look into one of the cards that rhpot1991 mention, or the PVR-USB2. There are numerous others that would probably work well also. What you're looking for is one that has a built-in encoder (typically MPEG2). | 16:15 |
| Lizard123 | mrand: thanks for helping me. | 16:16 |
| Lizard123 | I really appreciate your help guys | 16:17 |
| mrand | You're welcome! | 16:18 |
| Lizard123 | I'll try Hauppage and report back, thanks again an good bye. | 16:22 |
| jolaren | Hello. I cannot find any channels when I perform a search | 17:30 |
| jolaren | It has always worked before but I reinstalled 5 minutes ago | 17:31 |
| jolaren | and I really dont know what's wrong | 17:31 |
| jolaren | I'm updating the system now hoping it will work | 17:33 |
| jolaren | ,/ | 17:33 |
| rhpot1991 | jolaren: analog? | 17:34 |
| jolaren | rhpot1991: It's digital terrestial I think | 17:34 |
| jolaren | dvb-t | 17:34 |
| rhpot1991 | I know that analog channel scanning is broken, sounds like thats not the issue though | 17:35 |
| jolaren | That might be teh issue tho | 17:35 |
| jolaren | I only have free channels atm | 17:35 |
| jolaren | but I guess analog is never from an antenna? | 17:36 |
| superm1 | analog is actually fixed now in trunk w/ current autobuilds | 17:36 |
| jolaren | I'm not running the autobuilds yet tho | 17:38 |
| jolaren | but I am running the latest version of mythbuntu | 17:39 |
| jolaren | I think I know the problem now | 17:43 |
| jolaren | I'm running the xmltv thing and it says tv_grab_uk in the termianl but I'm from Sweden | 17:43 |
| jolaren | Anyways, reinstalling now | 17:56 |
| jolaren | This time I picked PAL-B instead of 1080p under the nvidia | 17:56 |
| Digital_Pioneer | Hi. I've got a mythbuntu installation here, and after rebooting a while back, it just flat refuses to login anymore. | 18:01 |
| Digital_Pioneer | I selected the user, put in the password, and the screen flashes a few times and it drops me back to GDM. | 18:02 |
| jolaren | Now I can view my channels but the picture is quite bad if I compare to what it was | 18:20 |
| jolaren | Nvm, easy fix. | 18:21 |
| jolaren | Didnt have vdpau in settings | 18:21 |
| jolaren | Program guide is still unknown all thew ay | 18:23 |
| jolaren | way | 18:24 |
| jolaren | What could be wrong? | 18:24 |
| jolaren | gosh | 18:24 |
| gregl | It will be unless you enter the xtmltvid or are using a listing source.. | 18:26 |
| Spanner3003 | hi i have pulse audio and alsa installed on a mythbuntu system with a hauppauge nova-s sat tv card a asus m2n-e sli mothboard with onboard sound that is seen in mythbuntu as a usb device and it all seems to work fine but in myth backend i have alsa, pulse audio, /dev/dsp1 and /dev/dsp2 but only /dev/dsp2 gives me sound in tv | 18:39 |
| Spanner3003 | hi is mheg working in mythtv yet? | 18:40 |
| mrand | Spanner3003: watch http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/8143 | 18:43 |

| Digital_Pioneer | I cannot log in from GDM anymore, it just drops me back to GDM; but if I login from CLI and run startx, it works fine. Any ideas? :\ | 18:53 |
| superm1 | look at the gdm logs | 18:53 |
| superm1 | /var/log/gdm or so | 18:53 |
| superm1 | and ~/.xsession-errors after a failed login | 18:54 |
| Digital_Pioneer | superm1: :0-greeter.log has "gnome-session[2191]: WARNING: Could not launch application 'metacity.desktop': Unable to start application: Failed to execute child process "metacity" (No such file or directory) | 18:57 |
| Digital_Pioneer | Would that cause it? | 18:57 |
| superm1 | not likely | 18:57 |
| Digital_Pioneer | superm1: That's the only log that appears out of sorts... | 18:59 |
| jolaren | I can't get my program listing to work | 19:00 |
| jolaren | It's just UNKNOWN everywhere | 19:00 |
| jolaren | What can I do? | 19:01 |
| Digital_Pioneer | jolaren: Did you enter the xtmltvid? (I'm just quoting gregl from above) :P | 19:02 |
| Digital_Pioneer | superm1: xsession-errors has nothing interesting either. | 19:04 |
| Digital_Pioneer | superm1: Just some griping about bash_completion | 19:04 |
| superm1 | Digital_Pioneer, are you out of space by chance? | 19:04 |
| superm1 | df -h | 19:04 |
| superm1 | i've heard that can cause gdm problems | 19:04 |
| Digital_Pioneer | Not by a long shot. | 19:04 |
| Digital_Pioneer | / has 60G free. | 19:04 |
| Digital_Pioneer | Is there something I can reinstall? :P | 19:06 |
| superm1 | well until you can find where there is an error happening, not really sure what to tell you to reinstall | 19:07 |
| jolaren | Digital_Pioneer: I guess I msised his point then.. xtmltvid id? | 19:07 |
| Digital_Pioneer | jolaren: I have no idea what it means. :D | 19:07 |
| Digital_Pioneer | Yeah, I know. :( :( | 19:07 |
| jolaren | It has always "just worked" before | 19:08 |
| Digital_Pioneer | Join the club. | 19:09 |
| jolaren | Are you havin the same problems lad? | 19:10 |
| Digital_Pioneer | No, my gdm is screwed up. | 19:10 |
| * Digital_Pioneer throws gdm off a cliff and installs kdm, which just works. | 19:12 | |
| rhpot1991 | jolaren: you need to set up some source, the listings don't just magically get data | 19:13 |
| rhpot1991 | here in the US we used schedules direct for that, dunno what you would use otherwise | 19:13 |
| Digital_Pioneer | OK, I want to set up a system where I have several mythboxes all streaming content from a central server, and be able to control what media is playing on what box from some a laptop. Is that feasible? :D | 19:13 |
| rhpot1991 | Digital_Pioneer: kinda, you can VNC into each box to do things | 19:14 |
| Digital_Pioneer | Eeeeh, dirty... :\ | 19:14 |
| rhpot1991 | you could make the laptop act as a remote control as well | 19:15 |
| rhpot1991 | and then control the other boxes one by one | 19:15 |
| Digital_Pioneer | That would work. How would you make a laptop think it's a remote control? | 19:16 |
| jolaren | rhpot1991: ofc | 19:17 |
| jolaren | rhpot1991: I have | 19:18 |
| jolaren | rhpot1991: Tried the sweden lister then the EIT lister | 19:22 |
| jolaren | none gives me anything but UNKNOWN bla bla | 19:22 |
| rhpot1991 | no idea on that, check in #mythtv-users maybe | 19:22 |
| mrand | Digital_Pioneer: there are multiple python, tcl, and other pieces of software which allow you to remotely control a frontend via the telnet port. Hold on, I'll find the page. | 19:24 |
| mrand | Digital_Pioneer: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Telnet_socket | 19:24 |
| Zinn | [www.mythtv.org] Telnet socket - MythTV | 19:24 |
| jolaren | Any known issues atm with the Swedish listing? | 19:32 |
| tgm4883 | mrand, Digital_Pioneer you can do that in mythweb | 20:10 |
| tgm4883 | there is keyboard input built into mythweb to control the frontends | 20:11 |
| mrand | tgm4883: is there still? I couldn't find it last time I looked. | 20:17 |
| Digital_Pioneer | tgm4883: OK, thanks. Will look into it. :) | 20:18 |
| mrand | tgm4883: Digital_Pioneer doh. It's on the front page of mythweb. My bookmark takes me past that. | 20:18 |
| tgm4883 | mrand, Digital_Pioneer http://backendip/mythweb/remote/keys | 20:18 |
| Digital_Pioneer | tgm4883: No such server?... | 20:19 |
| mrand | Digital_Pioneer: your machine is probably not named backendip | 20:19 |
| mrand | at least, mine isn't ;-) | 20:19 |
| * tgm4883 smacks head | 20:20 | |
| mrand | Of course, that is a raw keyboard. It would be much nicer if there were a remote shaped thingie there with pause, record, etc. /me adds to the laundry list of things to do someday. | 20:21 |
| rhpot1991 | I name all my machines backendip | 20:24 |
| Digital_Pioneer | Ahhh, yes, no TLD on that hostname is there? :) | 20:25 |
| Digital_Pioneer | *facedesk* | 20:26 |
| Digital_Pioneer | tgm4883, mrand: OK, so if I install mythweb on the backend, I can control the frontends over the network?... | 21:04 |
| Chris_confused | Hi all, did a stupid thing of running the nvidia .run installer. | 21:08 |
| Chris_confused | it removed my mythtv install. | 21:08 |
| Chris_confused | i've been reading on the forums but no real definit answers on how to get mythtv back. i install autobuilds but still no mythtv | 21:08 |
| Chris_confused | can anyone help? | 21:08 |
| tgm4883 | Digital_Pioneer, yes | 21:09 |
| tgm4883 | Chris_confused, did you try apt-get install mythtv? | 21:10 |
| tgm4883 | although it would actually be mythtv-frontend and mythtv-backend I believe | 21:10 |
| tgm4883 | I would use MCC to get what you want installed | 21:10 |
| Digital_Pioneer | tgm4883: And if it says "No frontends allowe remote control" on the remote page?... | 21:11 |
| Chris_confused | didn't try the apt-get route. will try that now and get back. i was just scared of removing my db and customized themes etc.. | 21:12 |
| Chris_confused | cheers lads. that brilliant. wow, it was that a simple. | 21:15 |
| tgm4883 | Chris_confused, you verified it worked? | 21:15 |
| Chris_confused | Seriously thanks a bunch i was sweating here for the last hour or so, though a total re-install. | 21:15 |
| Chris_confused | it work great | 21:15 |
| tgm4883 | Digital_Pioneer, there is probably a setting on the frontend to activate it. I'll have to check though | 21:15 |
| Chris_confused | "apt-get install mythtv" was the answer | 21:16 |
| Chris_confused | that will teach me to be more careful in future. once again thanks | 21:17 |
| mrand | tgm4883, Digital_Pioneer, I believe either in mythtv-setup or the frontend setup, there is an "enable telnet port" type setting. | 21:22 |
| rhpot1991 | ya you need to enable telnet control | 21:24 |
| Digital_Pioneer | rhpot1991: Do you do that on the frontend or backend? | 21:28 |
| rhpot1991 | frontend I think | 21:41 |
| Digital_Pioneer | OK, I told it to enable the telnet port on 6546, but it ignored me. Do I have to restart something? | 21:52 |
| Digital_Pioneer | Blasted thing _will not_ open that port... 6547 is open... | 21:57 |
| Digital_Pioneer | But it's set to use 6546 | 21:57 |
| Digital_Pioneer | *Sigh* I can't figure out how to turn the cursed thing on. | 22:04 |
| rhpot1991 | did you restart the frontend after the change? | 22:09 |
| Digital_Pioneer | Yeah | 22:09 |
| Digital_Pioneer | Many, _many_ times. | 22:10 |
| Digital_Pioneer | Should be able to just run `telnet frontendip 6546` and type help and it should tell me my possible commands, yes? | 22:12 |
| tgm4883 | http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Telnet_socket | 22:18 |
| Zinn | [www.mythtv.org] Telnet socket - MythTV | 22:18 |
| tgm4883 | Digital_Pioneer, that page also has some info on other "remotes" you can install to your desktop to control your mytthv | 22:19 |
| Digital_Pioneer | tgm4883: That's the page I've been working from, but all those remotes use the telnet interface, no? So unless I get that iface going, it's useless. | 22:23 |
| Digital_Pioneer | Anyways, there's always the VNC approach. | 22:23 |
| Digital_Pioneer | OK, I'll fight this further later. :\ | 22:27 |
