[01:31] <fbnts> Hi, I have a problem playing a particular DVD ISO.  It plays the intro and the goes blank.  The log is then flooded with: AFD Error: Unknown decoding error
[01:31] <fbnts> [mpeg2video @ 0x19df960]get_buffer() failed (stride changed)
[01:31] <fbnts> I have searched and it appears that its a know bug (https://bugs.launchpad.net/mythbuntu/+bug/566003) and that its fixed in trunk 0.23 however how do I get this update to my frontend?
[01:31] <Zinn> [bugs.launchpad.net] Bug #566003 in Mythbuntu: “DVD iso playback fails: AFD Error”
[01:32] <fbnts> I have done apt-get update/upgrade etc
[01:35] <fbnts> is it case of waiting for it to be updated in the mythbuntu repository?
[02:06] <mrand> fbnts are you running 0.23 auto-builds?
[07:19] <mechcozmo> I've just upgraded to 10.04 from 9.10 and lost X... i've tried ssh-ing in, and running nvidia-xconfig, but no dice
[07:20] <mechcozmo> is anything i should try to fix this problem?

[14:12] <recsa> Hi
[14:13] <recsa> one "easy" question, wasnt irw supposed to give something like this (0000000000010067 00 ArrowUp NOVA-T500) as output?
[14:14] <recsa> mine, on same key press, gives ]]B
[14:16] <recsa> i wouldnt worry about it if all buttons were working, but for any reason some of the buttons in my remote doesnt work (OK, Play, Rewind, ....) does nothing, while others (arrows, numbers, volume, ...) worl perfectly
[14:16] <recsa> any hint? thx a lot
[14:27] <recsa> rebooting, brb
[14:33] <recsa> back and solved
[14:34] <recsa> MCC doesnt correctly create the hardware.conf for NOVA T-500
[14:37] <Jay2k1> hola
[14:38] <Jay2k1> so you got it working? :)
[14:38] <mrand> recsa: is it a problem with the source lirc files, or is it MCC, or is it mythbuntu-lirc-generator?
[14:42] <recsa> yeah, its working now
[14:44] <recsa> mrand, i think its the myth lirc generator, from MCC you choose your receiver and it changes your conf files so i guess MCC is responsible for that
[14:45] <recsa> any way im happy now, after 2 cards and more than a week i got my remote 100% operational XDDD
[14:46] <recsa> good thing is my 2 cards use same remote model, so now i have 2 remotes for replacement once childs discover the existence of a new remote in the house
[14:47] <Jay2k1> haha
[14:47] <Jay2k1> i'm happy for you, after all that struggling you finally won :)
[14:47] <recsa> i cheated, but who cares?
[14:47] <Jay2k1> so you don't need my lirc confs anymore?
[14:48] <recsa> nope thanks, its working
[14:48] <Jay2k1> well, you didn't give up before you really tried hard, so i don't know if that's to be considered cheating
[14:48] <recsa> i mean cheating = buying a new card proven to work hahahha
[14:49] <recsa> now i can focus on the real challenge
[14:49] <recsa> setup my video sources, there should be an university grade just for understanding the backend config
[14:49] <Jay2k1> and i mean you have spent quite some time and effort in trying to make the first card work
[14:49] <Jay2k1> so it's ok :P
[14:49] <recsa> yep, and pretty happy for that Jay
[14:50] <Jay2k1> :)
[14:50] <recsa> and i really appreciate all you have help me
[14:50] <Jay2k1> yeah, video sources and connections are a bit hard to understand at the beginning
[14:51] <recsa> i think the names are not clear, a more precise naming would help novices like me
[14:52] <recsa> BTW is there a way to avoid myth doing some kind of fine tuning after every channel change? it takes like 1 to 3 seconds to lock every channel
[14:53] <recsa> it shoudl be instant, or am i wrong?
[14:53] <Jay2k1> tbh i've never seen instant channel change on digital TV (dvb that is)
[14:54] <recsa> my STB does it, why myth cant?
[14:54] <Jay2k1> perhaps it's because myth buffers
[14:54] <Jay2k1> you know, live tv is not really "live tv"
[14:55] <Jay2k1> it's a recording you instantly start to watch, technically
[14:55] <recsa> no instant like the old analog tv where it took just miliseconds, but my STB changes channel in less than a second, while myth can do in 2 or 3
[14:55] <Jay2k1> but i'm not sure if it just buffering a bit or if it's really the actual tuning process
[14:55] <recsa> aaahh the buffering
[14:56] <recsa> mmm well, i have bigger problems right now, step by step
[14:56] <Jay2k1> my guess is that when you change the channel, myth stops recording on the previous channel, tunes to the new one, starts recording, and 1-2 seconds later plays back that recording
[14:57] <recsa> maybe, still got to understand those numbers changing before playback starts (LMS ... or something)ç
[14:57] <Jay2k1> no idea about that stuff :)
[14:58] <recsa> i think DVB-T source is all clear now
[14:59] <recsa> now i hae to undertand how to make the cable tv to work
[15:00] <recsa> im considering connecting the STB composite output to my HVR-1100 composite input but looks liek its hard to work with composite sources
[15:00] <recsa> (hard for me)
[15:01] <recsa> so im considering to use an analog output from my STB forced to a particular channel and plug it to the HVR-1100 analog input
[15:01] <recsa> but maybe that way i will loose the EIT data
[15:02] <recsa> gonna ask uncle google for a Cable STB to mythtv connections setup
[15:06] <recsa> coooool http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Connecting_Tuner_Card_To_Cable_Sat

[16:08] <mcl0vin> good morning everyone
[16:08] <mcl0vin> i have a quick question
[16:10] <mcl0vin> i have mounted a new 80GB HDD to my mythbuntu at '/storage', i would like to use it for LiveTV, and Recordings...i don't know how to do that! can someone please show me how?
[16:18] <rhpot1991> mcl0vin: you need to set it up as a storage group, in mythtv-setup
[16:19] <mcl0vin> rhpot1991: so i just mkdir /storage/livetv and put that path instead of /var/lib/mythtv/livetv for example
[16:20] <rhpot1991> mcl0vin: yep
[17:21] <Keithamus2> Has anyone got surround sound working in Mythbuntu? I'm suing nvidia chipset with 3 3.5mm jacks.
[17:30] <Jay2k1> well, yes but using spdif
[17:39] <rhpot1991> same here with spdif and/or hdmi
[17:44] <Keithamus> damn. 3 jacks seems to be a pain
[17:44] <Zinn> Keithamus: Please watch your language.
[17:44] <Keithamus> oop sorry
[17:46] <Keithamus> would either of you recommend your speakers to me then?
[17:49] <Jay2k1> it's rather about the receiver/amp than speakers
[17:49] <Jay2k1> it needs to have the ability to decode digital sound, like dolby digital or dts
[17:56] <Keithamus> k
[17:56] <Keithamus> well I guess I'm off to work this stuff out
[17:56] <Keithamus> cheers
[17:56] <Keithamus> cya
[18:00] <mcl0vin> anyone here got their Huappage WinTV-HVR-1600 remote working in Karmic?
[18:03] <recsa> i ended buying a NOVA XDDD but can try to help you
[18:04] <recsa> exactly where are you at?
[18:08] <mcl0vin> recsa: i have the card working fine, except that i can't get the remote to work at all
[18:08] <mcl0vin> :(
[18:08] <recsa> tpe cat /proc/bus/input/devices | grep ir
[18:09] <recsa> *type
[18:10] <Jay2k1> grep -i ir
[18:10] <Jay2k1> makes it case insensitive
[18:10] <Jay2k1> otherwise things like "IR receiver" are not matched
[18:11] <recsa> g
[18:11] <recsa> g point
[18:12] <recsa> funny i have managed to make my myth spit the sound thru HDMI, but now i cant hear the youtube videos :P
[18:12] <mcl0vin> http://pastebin.com/2gwTSYxK
[18:13] <Jay2k1> humm, i fear he has the same problem as you had recsa
[18:13] <recsa> mclovin .... i cant help you anymore, you have the same problem i had with my HVR-1100
[18:13] <mcl0vin> hahahah
[18:14] <recsa> yep, i had to buy a new card, for any reason ubuntu is not recognizing our cards
[18:14] <Jay2k1> rather the IR inputs of them
[18:14] <recsa> yep
[18:14] <recsa> only IR inputs, cos video works perfectly
[18:16] <mcl0vin> video work perfect
[18:18] <recsa> i switched to NOVA-T 500 and worked out of the box, more or less
[18:18] <recsa> but if you manage to make the 1600 work ... please come and share it
[18:20] <recsa> is it even possible to direct the sound from a youtube video to the HDMI output?
[18:22] <recsa> mmmm gonna ask for help to the all mighty reboot
[18:22] <recsa> cyl
[18:41] <mcl0vin> from what i read cx18  was fixed in 2.6.32
[19:34] <JT|work> you guys wouldn't happen to know if a hauppauge PVR-150 remote control works with a homebrew serial receiver?
[19:34] <JT|work> I know that the infrared receiver with that card can only decode signals from it's own remote, I wonder if it works the other way around too
[21:57] <st8ofmi9d> Does anyone have problems with their MythTV frontends overheating? I've been having trouble with a Dell Zino but I just noticed the same problem when using one of my laptops. At least I think it's overheating. After some time the video gets very choppy and seems to only get better after I let the machine cool off.
[22:12] <JT|work> I run a big machine that's a frontend and backend, can't help you there buddy
[22:35] <mrand> st8ofmi9d: it should not be possible to overheat a machine that is not overclocked, assuming the fans and heatsinks are not completely covered in dust.  You can probably double check that by installing some temperature monitors.  Usually machines will either slow down or shut down if they overheat.  Check the frontend logs and see what it says when the video gets choppy.
[23:08] <st8ofmi9d> mrand: Thank you. I was disconnected so I only saw your one message. Maybe overheating isn't the right word. Maybe it's just getting hot enough to slow down the CPU which causes the playback to get choppy.
[23:10] <st8ofmi9d> Is the log that I should look at /var/log/mythtv/
[23:42] <mrand> st8ofmi9d: yes, /var/log/mythtv/mythfrontend.log
