sircolincan someone help me with nuvexport, everything is disabled in lucid 64, do i need to recompile it ?00:33
tgm4883sircolin, nuvexport isn't supported anymore. Check out mythexport and see if it fulfills your needs00:35
sircolinok thanks, i though something was going there, since my upgrade i guess i may as well remove it then i will have a read up now thanks.00:37
dododoohey guys00:44
tgm4883!hi00:44
ZinnSorry I don't know about hi00:44
dododooI have been running mythbuntu for a while, in the upgrade to 10.4, it broke apache2 is there an easy way to uninstall apache, php, etc and use like mythweb to reinstall and setup everything properly?00:45
dododooapache2 wont start00:46
dododooInvalid command 'php_value', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration00:46
dododoonot sure what that means00:47
tgm4883dododoo, odd. you could apt-get remove mythweb, apache2, php, then reinstall mythweb00:48
tgm4883or00:48
tgm4883you could try just doing a dpkg-reconfigure apache200:48
tgm4883and maybe a dpkg-reconfigure mythweb00:48
dododoookay...I'll give it a shot00:48
dododooweird, I tried it both ways...first way last00:54
dododooit gave me at the end of installing mythweb: Setting up mythweb (0.23.0+fixes24104-0ubuntu2) ...00:54
dododooYour apache2 configuration is broken, so we're not restarting it for you.00:54
dododooi tried a sudo apt-get --purge remove apache2  :(00:55
dododoofixed it01:03
dododoo;)01:03
[R]so the mythbuntu patches to myth removed the ability to use a shutdown command... yet my default mythbunut install is failing with all the dbus methods01:25
puffDoes this look like a mythbuntu-supported card? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E1681413132503:08
Zinn[www.newegg.com] Newegg.com - POWERCOLOR AP4350 512MD2-H Radeon HD 4350 512MB 64-bit DDR2 PCI HDCP Ready CrossFireX Support Video Card03:08
puffIt's the only one I've found that's PCI and has HDMI-out.03:09
mrandpuff: I wouldn't personally pay that much for a PCI card, especially an ATI.03:29
mrandOf course, I'd probably be shopping on ebay, where used cards are available.03:32
Fudgehi, wondering if anyone here  maybe who has myth in a vm is willing to run a script which transforms a ubuntu to vinux which is a fork of ubuntu that is modified for visually impaired. Id like to know if it will work on mythbuntu so I can setup a pvr11:45
DavieyFudge: Why not just try it? :)13:05
Fudgehard to install13:05
Fudgecant see the screen13:05
mrandFudge: Mythbuntu's fonts too small?13:06
mrandFudge, rather than converting Mythbuntu to vinux, I'd be tempted to add the mythtv packages to vinux.13:09
Fudgeno fact i have like 3% eyesight13:16
Fudgegood idea ill look at converting one13:16
Fudgeit would be nice for the blind to have an accessible myth system to be able to fallback to cli if needed13:17
mrandFudge: since MythTV is fully themeable, if the existing themes are not acceptable, someone could modify one or more of them.  If someone does that, it would be good to submit it back upstream to the Mythtv project (unknown if they'd accept it, but it should at least be submitted there so that it has a chance of being kept up-to-date).13:26
Fudgeits more if orca works with myth I think, but I see what you mean about the visual themes too13:27
mrandFudge: Ah!  I was thinking about something that could be used with a remote control (i.e., without a mouse).  But that may only make sense if there is some distance between the veiwer and the tv screen.13:36
Fudgeyou can open orca by typing orca into the run box, see if it speaks when the remote is selecting stuff?13:39
mrandFudge: booting my test system... let's see here.13:42
Fudgesweet13:46
mrandFudge: Does orca work with x.f.c.e.?  Doesn't seem to do much on this system.  Hold while I reboot into gnome.13:50
Fudgeoh no it doesnt out of the box13:55
Fudgei believe some ppl can make some stuff work but not desktop icons but its with mods13:55
Fudgesame with lxde knoppix made that very accessible but otherwise a normal lxde desktop orca will hardly speak13:55
Fudgesry mate in other windows highlight me :)13:56
mrandFudge: no problem.  Oh neat.... Orca is cool... reads everything and even tells you which window is active.  Unfortunately it doesn't work with Myth menu's.  Off hand, do you know what it would take for an application to support Orca?  I also tried  the Ubuntu accessability thing at login, but it appears to do absolutely nothing.14:00
Fudgeis it gtk?14:00
mrandFudge: Um, no, I don't think so.14:01
Fudgei think qt4 apps arent to friendly but gtk is suppose to be14:01
mrandIt uses QT mostly14:01
Fudgedont know to much about the tech stuff about it14:01
Fudgewell maybe when gnome3 come sout it will be accessible14:01
mrandThis is definintely a QT4 ap14:02
mrandThat's in 10.10, right?14:02
Fudgeyeah i think it is actually14:02
Fudgeread somewhere september so that sounds bout right14:02
mrandFudge: They are shooting for Oct 10, 201014:02
* mrand ponders installing alpha 114:02
Fudgehopefully the myth team  dev test it with orca anyway, im guessing they would already14:03
Fudgeooh alphas are fun14:03
Fudgeif i could actually see to isntall stuff and play id have so much fun14:03
mrandFudge: the myth team is very overloaded, so unfortunately I would expect they don't.14:03
mrandFudge: found a post on the Orca mailing list that they are hoping for QT support in gnome314:05
Fudgeyep thats right14:05
mrandFudge: I guess orca doesn't work well in a virtual machine?14:06
Fudgeit should do14:06
Fudgedoesnt put much loads on really but if youre getting glitchy sound its more likely the sound daemon14:06
Fudgevinux is running system wide pulseaudio and lots of other tweaks and mods14:07
Fudgegrab one of the isos and myth it :D14:07
mrandYou could always install the alpha 1 in a VM.14:07
Fudgecomes back to answering the install questions though14:07
Fudgeid be very willing to do it if i could install it but sometiems it means asking someoen fo rhelp and then if they are computer savi enough to understand etc etc14:08
Fudgeor if there are vbox images available with it installed well there thatd be great too14:08
mrandFudge: I wonder if vinux has a 10.10 alpha build.14:09
mrandNot that I can find.14:11
Fudgeno not yet mate we sut released lucid14:11
Fudge3alphas and 6rcs14:12
Fudgeltos of bugs to iron out14:12
Fudgecoem from upstream14:12
Fudgebut its all abotu trying to put out somethign decent14:12
mrandFudge: I can imagine the challenge.14:14
Fudgebut it pays off though mate14:15
Fudgei was a windows/freebsd user before vinux and now im soully ubuntu vinux14:15
Fudgeall my systems in the house are vinux even my imac14:15
Fudgeso glad to get something that everyone expects and takes for granted and thats the console14:15
mrandoops, my daughter just woke up, so lost my test system for now.14:17
mrandFudge: you sound capable enough, you should have someone help you get a second install going in a VM so that you can experiment.  I would imagine it could be scripted even.14:17
Fudgei think i migth  mate, my first object is to get windows xp up in one so i can continue my mirc with speech scritp development and nlite images i make14:18
Fudgethankyou cobber14:21
mrandhmmm... not aware of the "cobber" term14:22
mrandcobber (n): Austral and NZ informal a friend; mate: used as a term of address to males14:22
mrandFudge: you're welcome ;-)14:23
mrandDaviey:  you're a cobber!14:23
sircolinim just trying to get my head around mythexport, is mythexport able to export to xvid or is it just able to export to an ipod format as standard ?16:57
extasyMy mythbackend refuses to start and in mythbackend.log I get this error 2010-06-06 17:51:16.500 mythbackend version: branches/release-0-23-fixes [24836] www.mythtv.org19:39

Zinn[www.mythtv.org] MythTV, Open Source DVR19:39
extasyI got this from mythtv.. export HOME=/home/mythtv ; mythbackend -l /var/log/mythbackend.log -d19:52
extasyand it worked, they also informed me that the fixes needs to be "fixed" in mythbuntu to set the enviroment19:53
extasyfrom Sphery: but somehow the Mythbuntu guys need to make sure that mythbackend is executed in an environment with a proper HOME directory specified.  I don't know if they would do that in their wrapper script (don't they still have a mythbackend and mythbackend.real?) or what, but it needs set somewhere.19:53
