map7_I've just loaded up mythbuntu 10.04-beta1 64bit and found that it doesn't reboot properly after installation05:18
map7_Should I report this bug on 'https://bugs.launchpad.net/mythbuntu'05:18

jussi01map7_: yes, bug reports are always welcome :)06:46
pmceneryIs anyone here running the lucid version of mythbuntu yet? I've noticed that with mythvideo installed. mythfrontend crashes if there is a DVD in the drive. Has anyone else seen this?07:31
pmceneryI have "scan for ..." enabled... but it seems that it doesnt like DVD's for some reason. I have libdvdcss2 installed.07:33
pmceneryJust thought I would check here before opening a bug in launchpad.07:34

KevilHi, I am new to mythbuntu and I am trying to install with wibu for a dual boot on my media center. During the installation it asks a few questions about graphics drivers which I left as the open source option then it asks about the sql database which I have no clue about and just left as it is. Then it reboots but when I select mythbuntu as the boot option it takes me to a grub screen and only gives me the option to run windows 7.  I have no12:24
dewmanhas anyone had any luck using w_scan for getting a channel list? I find that the mythtv scanner doesnt really work so well and I am trying to find a viable solutions for scanning digital channels.15:33

dewmananyone?16:07
mranddewman: if you're having specific trouble with the scanner in 0.22, you might try the one in 0.2316:13
dewmanmrand, I am currently running trunk on .22 not sure if I want to make the dive to .23 yet.....23 is coming out pretty soon isnt it?16:15
tgm4883"I am currently running trunk on .22"  what?16:28
mrandtgm4883: in at least one place,  0.22 says trunk-0.22, right?16:39
tgm4883yes16:39
tgm4883Don't make me stab you16:39
tgm4883i'll do it :)16:39
mrandI know you will.  I'm not afraid.16:40
dewmanmrand, would you happen to know why there is conflicting channels on a new scan? I deleted all the sources and even deleted the capture card. and the scan on qam 64 shows 25 MPEG conflicting channels....16:40
tgm4883!stab mrand16:40
* Zinn stabs mrand with superm1's Dell "mini" LHC.16:40
mrandheheh.16:40
mrandI'm sorry, I know not of the ways of digital scanning.  If you don't get replies here, you might try a bigger audience on the forums or #mythtv-users16:40
dewmananyone else? =)16:41
dewmanwhat are scte channels?16:47
ballI just had Comcast cable television installed this morning.  It's *awful*.20:24
mrandball: don't know that many people will argue with you on that.20:25
ballmrand: Now I have to find some alternative.20:30
ball:-(20:30
mrandIf the picture quality is that bad, they should fix/repair it, and/or cancel service with no charge to you.20:32
rhpot1991there is no alternate in most areas, unless you can do with just an antenna20:36
mrandWell, satellite is available in most areas, assuming no line-of-site blockage.20:39
rhpot1991mrand: may as well just go antenna then :)20:40
rhpot1991unless you have a closet full of HDPVRs20:41
mrandrhpot1991: not yet.  In fact, the only thing in my closest right now is a router and cable modem.  Don't even have a HDHR yet.20:42
ballI would go with an antenna if I had the money to have it installed.20:57
ball...and to build a PVR of some sort.20:57
* tgm4883 uses an antenna21:02
tgm4883like 80 bucks and it sits inside my attic21:02
balltgm4883: In my attic, I'd pick up just one station.21:02
ball...with two streams.21:02
tgm4883ball, how far away do you live from the transmission site?21:03
balltgm4883: About 100km? (60 miles) from most of them.21:04
tgm4883thats about what mine is21:05
ballHouse has a 30' (10m) tower, but I can't afford to get it painted and have an antenna installed.21:05
ballThat would probably cost more than a year of cable TV21:06
tgm4883Have you checked antenna web?21:07
* ball nods21:07
tgm4883and it only listed 2 channels?21:07
ballI know which antenna I'd buy, if I had the money.21:07
tgm4883you much have crappy terrain21:07
ballNo, one station is what I'd get if I had the antenna in the roof, as you mentioned.21:08
ballOn top of the tower I think I'd get about ten21:08
ball...though some of those would be Spanish.21:08
tgm4883have you tested in your roof at all?21:08
tgm4883what is your roof made out of?21:08
balltgm4883: wood, with ordinary tar shingles21:08
ballasphalt21:09
tgm4883yea so i'm not sure why you think you would only get one channel then21:09
tgm4883Where are you located?21:09
ballAbout 60 miles S. of Chicago21:09
ballOh, it's a ranch though, so the roof is lower than on a two story house.21:09
ballI have to go21:11
tgm4883little man?21:13
tateI have a hauppage PVR 500 that worked great for me until I went to 9.10 now my channels look really grainy.  I've checked and it's set to my proper channel frequency setting.21:13
