| nwidger | did the last .23 auto build update break anyone else's setup? | 00:26 |

| ScumBag | I'm having a problem with Miro, I'm sure this isn't the place but I have to start somewhere. I can't download feeds from ezrss in Miro, but I can open them in Firefox with no problems. | 01:50 |
| jolaren | Can someone take a look at my mythfilldatabase.. I can't get the XMLTV to work.. I've been running with EIT scanning before and it works but crashes my backend a few tmies a day | 16:37 |
| tmkt | Hey hey..for dd5.1 and dts passthrough which codec package should i have installed? i just installed libavcodec52 used to have libdevice-extra-52 libavformat-extra-52 and the unstripped-52 | 16:38 |
| mrand | tmkt: sorry, no clue | 16:42 |
| mrand | jolaren: if it is crashing on 0.23 with auto-builds enabled, we'd love to get a back trace. | 16:42 |
| jolaren | I'm running the stable version, I think that's 0.22 | 16:43 |
| jolaren | mrand, think I should upgrade? | 16:45 |
| jolaren | I just want my tv to work, I never want to touch my backend | 16:45 |
| mrand | jolaren: 0.23 isn't released and has a few rough edges, but is fine for most people. In general, most people see improvements, but there are some random crashes still - hard to say if it would be an improvement for you or not. | 16:48 |
| jolaren | I tried running tv_grab_se_swedb --configure and then mythfilldatabase --manual | 16:50 |
| jolaren | but still the same errors | 16:50 |
| smoovemove | hello all - I recently upgraded my 0.22 (mythbuntu 9.10) to 0.23-rc1 using the control centre. Worked like a charm, but it did not give me the Mythnetvision plugin. What is the best way to install that and test it out? | 17:00 |
| superm1 | smoovemove, apt-get install mythnetvision, or go to synaptic, or ubuntu software center and find it there | 17:02 |
| superm1 | unfortunately that plugins page isn't dynamic in MCC based on what's available, it is hardcoded per each *buntu release | 17:03 |
| smoovemove | superm1: great, will give that a shot. and makes sense about MCC. | 17:06 |
| smoovemove | superm1: thanks | 17:06 |
| bjd | hai! | 17:35 |
| bjd | am i in the right place to ask about installing newer myth packages with a vanilla ubuntu install? | 17:35 |
| superm1 | bjd, sure | 17:37 |
| superm1 | you can use the autobuilds on vanilla ubuntu installs too | 17:38 |
| superm1 | http://mythbuntu.org/download-type | 17:38 |
| bjd | hm, does that url work for you? | 17:39 |
| superm1 | Yeah it does | 17:41 |
| bjd | mm | 17:41 |
| superm1 | just hit activate autobuilds on it | 17:41 |
| bjd | Ah, my v6 connection is broken | 17:41 |
| * bjd fixes | 17:41 | |
| jolaren | teh fudge | 17:45 |
| bjd | ok, the site doesn't like v6 ;p | 17:45 |
| superm1 | what's v6? | 17:45 |
| bjd | Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Exception' with message 'Invalid IP address... | 17:45 |
| superm1 | ipv6? | 17:45 |
| bjd | ipv6 | 17:45 |
| jolaren | ipv6? | 17:45 |
| mrand | ipv6? | 17:45 |
| mrand | sorry, didn't want to be left out. | 17:46 |
| superm1 | haha | 17:46 |
| mrand | I don't think anyone calls it v6. | 17:46 |
| mrand | That an engine | 17:46 |
| jolaren | me neither | 17:46 |
| jolaren | I don't understand what I'm doing wrong with xmltv | 17:47 |
| jolaren | drives me crazy | 17:47 |
| jolaren | i hate fiddlin with me backend | 17:47 |
| superm1 | jolaren, 10.04, uk radiotimes problem? | 17:47 |
| jolaren | naw the 'se' one | 17:50 |
| jolaren | tv_grab_se_swedb --configure --config-file '/home/joel/.mythtv/swedb.xmltv' | 18:06 |
| jolaren | and then mythfilldatabase --manual | 18:06 |
| icewolfca | I am using Mythbuntu 9.10 and I have my HVR-1600 working, but I get pink lines on the right side of the screen, is this a know issue? | 19:11 |
| rhpot1991 | icewolfca: on every channel? Is it a large section or maybe just a few pixels off to the side? | 19:14 |
| tgm4883 | icewolfca, analog or digital? | 19:16 |
| rhpot1991 | I was thinking possibly just junk in overscan | 19:18 |
| tgm4883 | could be | 19:19 |
| icewolfca | its all atsc channels | 19:20 |
| icewolfca | analog is fine | 19:20 |
| icewolfca | its a considerable amount, i tried setting the aspect ratio etc | 19:20 |
| icewolfca | tried all of the different decoder combinations | 19:20 |
| icewolfca | I have searched google and I could not find anything | 19:21 |
| tmkt | icewolf is it a vertical line from top of the screen to the bottom? | 19:23 |
| icewolfca | yes many, verical on the right side | 19:23 |
| rhpot1991 | icewolfca: take a screenshot | 19:23 |
| tmkt | ah..i just have the 1.. | 19:23 |
| icewolfca | how? | 19:23 |
| tmkt | 1 line 2 pixels wide | 19:23 |
| rhpot1991 | printscreen button? | 19:23 |
| icewolfca | ok | 19:23 |
| tmkt | and i don't think this error shows up on the screenshot | 19:23 |
| rhpot1991 | and then throw it on something like imagebin | 19:23 |
| jolaren | §§§ | 19:24 |
| icewolfca | ok | 19:24 |
| tmkt | icewolfca: ati video card? | 19:24 |
| jolaren | I really can't get XMLTV running smoothly, should It really be this much of an hazzle? | 19:24 |
| icewolfca | yes ati | 19:24 |
| jolaren | Spent over 3 hours with it already | 19:24 |
| rhpot1991 | heh, that might be your issue | 19:25 |
| tmkt | did the line show up in your screenshot? | 19:25 |
| icewolfca | even the overlay is cut off a bit hah | 19:25 |
| tmkt | rhpot1991: yeah..i took my nvidia out | 19:25 |
| rhpot1991 | jolaren: lucid? | 19:25 |
| tmkt | and went with the onboard ati | 19:25 |
| tmkt | and thats my problem | 19:25 |
| icewolfca | I am checking now | 19:25 |
| icewolfca | what can I paste it into? | 19:25 |
| icewolfca | the image | 19:25 |
| jolaren | rhpot1991, mythbuntu 9.10 | 19:25 |
| icewolfca | I need to installa program | 19:25 |
| icewolfca | what should I use for screen capture? | 19:26 |
| rhpot1991 | icewolfca: http://imagebin.org/ | 19:26 |
| tmkt | print screen should ask you to save it to your destop | 19:27 |
| icewolfca | it does not ask me anything | 19:37 |
| superm1 | on mythbuntu i dont think we install anything that would be capable of printscreen working | 19:40 |
| superm1 | gnome uses gnome stuff to do it, and binds it | 19:40 |
| superm1 | you can install gimp and probably do it with taht | 19:40 |
| tmkt | either way...i'm pretty sure that pink line won'tshow up on the screenshot | 19:46 |
| icewolfca | ok I am taking a picture | 19:47 |

| Zinn | [www.imgbin.org] ImgBin.Org: The #1 site for free, fast image hosting | 19:48 |
| icewolfca | closer picture to the crap | 19:48 |
| mrand | oh wow. Does it look like that in programs other than myth? Like vlc? | 19:48 |
| icewolfca | you mean the hvr-1600? | 19:48 |
| icewolfca | in digital mode? | 19:48 |
| icewolfca | I don't know how to test the atsc mode in another program | 19:49 |
| icewolfca | and it works fine in the windows machine so this I do know | 19:49 |
| tmkt | wow..that is definitely not my problem | 19:49 |
| icewolfca | hah | 19:49 |
| tmkt | mine is 1 line..2 pixels wide | 19:49 |
| tmkt | i can live with mine | 19:49 |
| tmkt | that one..i sure wouldn't be able to | 19:49 |
| icewolfca | its pretty bad | 19:50 |
| rhpot1991 | yikes that is pretty bad | 19:50 |
| mrand | icewolfca: atsc is a don't care. Now that it is tuned, you should be able to capture with cat /dev/video_device_name > filename.mpg | 19:50 |
| icewolfca | hah | 19:50 |
| mrand | Or you can use vlc. Or probably lots of other things. | 19:50 |
| icewolfca | ok let me try that now and see | 19:50 |
| rhpot1991 | thats definitely not overscan, so my theory is out | 19:50 |
| icewolfca | I am liking mythtv alot though | 19:50 |
| tmkt | everytime i get annoyed with my pink line...i'll think of yours and smile | 19:51 |
| icewolfca | hah | 19:51 |
| mrand | Until you said that it worked fine on Windoze, I was going to suggest a tuner hardware problem. If this only appears on Linux, it's either kernel (either driver or firmware) or mythtv. | 19:52 |
| icewolfca | I thought "maybe" firmware since there are different verions of the card | 19:52 |
| icewolfca | but I wouldn't know which to try | 19:52 |
| rhpot1991 | it almost looks like its doing an anlog size and filling in the rest with junk | 19:52 |
| rhpot1991 | I'm not familiar with that card, but I know some of them don't play nicely between analog and digital | 19:53 |
| tmkt | so this only happens when watching video? | 19:53 |
| tmkt | stop watching video and the lines go away? | 19:53 |
| icewolfca | only atsc channels from /dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0 | 19:53 |
| tmkt | i have hvr-1600, and no problems with the tuner | 19:53 |
| tmkt | using DVB? | 19:53 |
| icewolfca | if I watch a xvid or analog tv its fine | 19:53 |
| icewolfca | the regular cable part of the card works great! | 19:54 |
| rhpot1991 | icewolfca: assuming you've looked through this: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Hauppauge_HVR-1600 | 19:55 |
| Zinn | [www.mythtv.org] Hauppauge HVR-1600 - MythTV | 19:55 |
| icewolfca | yes I have looked through there | 19:55 |
| icewolfca | I will try a different firmware version | 19:56 |
| Daviey | icewolfca: I would recommend imagemagick | 20:08 |
| Daviey | sudo apt-get install imagemagic | 20:09 |
| Daviey | then you can do from the console, sleep 10s ; import -window root screenshot.png | 20:10 |
| icewolfca | the image is there now | 20:13 |
| icewolfca | you guys think 1.5ghz is enough for 720p? | 20:14 |
| rhpot1991 | if you have an nvidia card that can do VDPAU sure, if not then most likely no | 20:14 |
| tmkt | he's ati | 20:15 |
| icewolfca | rage 128 | 20:15 |
| icewolfca | hah | 20:15 |
| icewolfca | ok then I will just stick to regular cable | 20:17 |
| icewolfca | and remove the DVB device until I get a better motherboard etc | 20:17 |
| icewolfca | I guess the ati rage 128 is causing it to barf | 20:17 |
| rhpot1991 | once upon a time I ran 720p content on an amd athlon 1900+ | 20:18 |
| icewolfca | this is an athlon 1800 | 20:18 |
| rhpot1991 | system was heavily tweaked and I was using XvMC | 20:18 |
| rhpot1991 | it "worked" but I was not really happy with it | 20:18 |
| rhpot1991 | you'd be better dedicating that box as a backend and picking up a cheap ion box for a frontend IMO | 20:19 |
| icewolfca | yes | 20:19 |
| icewolfca | I don't think it will play the hd content | 20:20 |
| icewolfca | that is ok | 20:20 |
| icewolfca | I put my vhs tapes in avi files | 20:20 |
| icewolfca | so I can watch those as well | 20:20 |
| icewolfca | and they work fine :) | 20:20 |
| icewolfca | I guess because the bit rate is lower than a prom dress | 20:21 |
| mrand | interesting way to put it. | 20:22 |
| tmkt | video card pci? | 20:22 |
| tmkt | pcie? | 20:22 |
| icewolfca | its agp | 20:23 |
| icewolfca | an older ati rage 128 pro | 20:23 |
| icewolfca | It is a very "high performance" card | 20:24 |
| rhpot1991 | if by high performance you mean old as dirt :) | 20:25 |
| icewolfca | hah yes | 20:26 |
| icewolfca | I am guessing that the agp video card is the problem here | 20:26 |
| icewolfca | not a combination of firmware and drivers | 20:26 |
| mrand | if 720p is your goal, yeah, don't waste a lot of time on that card. | 20:33 |
| rhpot1991 | agreed | 20:54 |
| icewolfca | yes | 20:56 |
| icewolfca | thank you | 20:56 |
