dodddummycan mythbuntu be configured to turn the pc on and off using the remote?01:43
beatbreakerhi - will the new mythbuntu 10.04 beta work with a mythbackend on myth version 0.22 ??10:52
dewmanbeatbreaker, No I dont think it will. I am pretty sure that 10.04 has .23 in it.12:41
dewmanis there any documents for setting up a secondary backend? I would like to just use this server for encoding while still using the storage on another box.18:18
tgm4883dewman, is it not in the installation doc?18:19
tgm4883http://mythbuntu.org/wiki18:19
dewmanlooks like it just might be for the primary backend.18:22
dewmanBut I will look some more.18:22
dewmantgm4883, I dont see it....I know that the setup is in the MCC, but isnt there more to it then just installing the MCC on the secondary server?18:26
tgm4883dewman, I would have to check. There isn't a whole lot of it that is different than a primary backend. You just need to point it to the primary18:28
dewmantgm4883, I would assume that I would need nfs shares.18:28
tgm4883dewman, for what?18:28
dewmanso the secondary could write the transcoded files to the primary backend once the encoding is done?18:29
dewmantgm4883, Or maybe I am missing the whole design here.18:29
tgm4883Hmm18:29
tgm4883I don't do transcoding, so I'm not sure18:30
tgm4883I think NFS would screw it up18:30
dewmanok...I wont mess with nfs at the moment.18:33
tgm4883dewman, I want to say that the transfer of the file would happen all via the myth protocol, but I honestly am not sure on that18:34
dewmanthat would make sense....18:35
dewmantgm4883, ok...crossing my fingers....secondary is coming up...18:50
dewmantgm4883, it seems to be working so far. =)20:58
ivan747Hello, i just want to ask a quick question: how do I set MythMusic to sort the music by artist and not by composer. Example: Show The Beatles instead of Lennon/McCartney.22:06
ivan747Hello?22:22
mrandivan747: unsure.  perhaps in the mythtv setup?22:23
ivan747Yes22:25
ivan747I have tried there, but nothing appears22:25
ivan747I was thinking on massively retagging those songs so the artist could be the composer.22:26
ivan747It also works removing the composer, but retagging 650 songs is not easy.22:26
dewman+622:39
ivan747?22:39
tgm4883dewman, everything working via the myth protocol?22:43
Seeker`I'm getting 2304 errors from xmltv when trying to run mythfilldatabase :(22:54
tgm4883Seeker`, thats a lot of errors23:10
Seeker`:P23:15
Seeker`1 error with the error code 2304 :P23:15
DavieySeeker`: using lucid, and radio times?23:15
Seeker`Daviey: Karmic and RT23:19
Seeker`seem to have fixed it by taking community channel out of the config filer23:19
Seeker`*file23:19
Seeker`running out of hard drive space :( need to work out a nice way of adding more storage23:20
tgm4883Seeker`, open case, add hard drive?23:20
tgm4883add to storage group23:20
Seeker`tgm4883: I mean software-wise23:20
tgm4883Seeker`, add to storage group?23:21
Seeker`isn't there an issue doing stuff using storage groups in the latest version if you have vob files?23:21
Seeker`I've not been keeping up to date with developments23:21
tgm4883hmm23:21
tgm4883!iso23:21
ZinnStorage Groups are a streaming method of transmitting material to a frontend, meaning they don't provide block-level access to the file in question. An ISO is a disk image, and requires block-level access. Upstream has a plan to simulate a block device across the network using NBD for 0.24. Until then you can use the following workaround: http://www.baablogic.net/drupal/node/723:21
tgm4883I don't know if that has issues with VOB as well23:21
tgm4883Seeker`, and that only applies to mythvideo, not recordings23:22
Seeker`I've got videos and recordings on the same partition23:25
Seeker`been ages since I've looked at this stuff, will have to remind myself ho I've got it set up23:26
tgm4883Seeker`, are you trying to add recording space or video space?23:26
Seeker`both23:26
tgm4883how large is the drive in there?23:27
tgm4883how large is the drive you are going to add?23:27
Seeker`I have a 1TB drive mounted at /media/multim23:29
Seeker`which has subdirectorys recordings and videos23:29
Seeker`and 2nd 1TB drive mounted at /media/multim/recordings223:30
Seeker`mythvideo is confiured to look at /media/multim/videos23:30
Seeker`recordings are balanced over /media/multim/recordings and /media/multim/recordings223:30
tgm4883Seeker`, add in the new drive at /media/multim/drive3/videos and /media/multim/drive3/recordings23:32
tgm4883add the recordings directory into a recordings storage group23:32
tgm4883add in the videos like this23:32
tgm4883 /media/multim/videos:/media/multim/drive3/videos23:33
tgm4883!mythvideo23:34
Zinnhttps://help.ubuntu.com/community/MythVideo23:34
Seeker`I'll give that a go23:40
Seeker`seen some 2TB drives cheap on ebuyer23:41
Seeker`tgm4883: if you have directories set up as /dir/1:/dir/2, does mythtv care which of the two the the files are in?23:44
tgm4883no23:44
tgm4883it is how to do multiple directories in mythvideo23:45
Seeker`what about for recordings?23:46
tgm4883recordings, use storage groups23:46
