qwebirc17000hello? complete irc newbie here06:36
qwebirc17000I hope I do this right. I've composed a question... I will paste it here and hopefully it will show up right...06:38
qwebirc17000I haven't used IRC in ages and never used it that much so please pardon any netiquette faux pas's...  Now that I've drafted my question... It's getting kinda late; is there an archive I can look for possible responses if nobody replies before I have to shut down?  If it's not obvious, I am a Linux newbie and don't know all the ins n outs, so if you assume I already know about some gotcha, assume again.   In A Nutshell: 06:39
qwebirc17000my system. 10.04 has nothing recorded and I want to get the db table references into it from 8.10. I've already copied the 400gb or so of files from old to new server.  The Dirty Details: I am running Mythbuntu 8.10 on a 1tb drive; it's been running for about a year. I've installed a new 2tb drive and by switching my boot drive in BIOS I've installed a "fresh" 10.04 copy of Mythbuntu on the 2tb drive.06:40
qwebirc17000I've figured out how to get my 100 or so recordings from the 8.10 drive to 10.04 but the database is another issue. I've seen a lot of different recommendations for this process I hoped I could find a definitive solution to get my 8.10 table data into the 10.04 db.  The biggest catch is the possibility that the schema changed (and I think it did) from 8.10 to 10.04; my 8.10 DBSchemaVer is 1214.  I took partial and full 06:40
qwebirc17000If these tables had no schema changes-- I *think* I oughtta be able to do something like  insert into NEWDB.TABLE select * from OLDDB.TABLE ...for each table containing recording info. But I suspect it won't be that simple. Based on some of the articles I saw, I need to get the data from these tables:  record recorded  oldrecorded  recordedprogram  recordedrating  recordedmarkup  recordedseek  I've already copied the 306:40
qwebirc17000I know I need to bak the 10.04 db first.06:41
qwebirc17000Someone said if the schema changed you could use the -c parm on the db backup to keep it from getting fouled up on the insert. Not sure how that'd work, but did one backup like that.  I did 3 variations of db backup (which I will admit I am not that familiar with; I figured "it's only TV shows" but now that I have some history I spose it's time to reconsider the importance of regular backups).   Here are the 3 variation06:41
qwebirc17000--bak a few tables mysqldump -u mythtv -pXXXXXXXXX -t mythconverg record recorded \ oldrecorded recordedprogram recordedrating \ recordedmarkup recordedseek > old_myth_sometbls.sql  --as above with -c parm mysqldump -u mythtv -pXXXXXXXXX -t -c mythconverg record recorded \ oldrecorded recordedprogram recordedrating \ recordedmarkup recordedseek > old_myth_sometbls_cparm.sql  --bak entire db mysqldump -u mythtv -pXXXXXXX06:42
qwebirc17000finding "doUpgradeTVDatabaseSchema" in dbcheck.cpp; I didn't find the file on my 8.10 install; but it suggested applying the sql code to upgrade from your old schema to the new... my 8.10 DBSchemaVer is 1214; I don't know the version for 10.04.06:42

qwebirc18870ok...looks like I already fouled up... I shoulda used "pastebin" for my largeish question. Sorry.07:44
qwebirc18870I'm using the web based irc client... when I came back after about an hour it appeared to have disconnected or timed out. But that could have been because of the large inline question... was it a timeout or a "rtfm"-out?07:46

achew22Is it possible to force mirobridge to run? Where would that command be located19:26
achew22I found it deeply nested in the docs folder for mythtv. So it's working now.19:44
dae_Hi, I have just upgraded my mythtv backend server to ubuntu server 10.04 using a fresh install. I now have stutter problems which I'm 99% sure are related to the backend since they happen at the exact same time during Live TV or as a playback as well as synchronous on multiple frontends.21:48
rhpot1991dae_: sounds like a tuner issue21:49
rhpot1991bad signal, or something21:49
rhpot1991I see glitches when my firewire or stb act up21:49
dae_rhpot1991, well video is received from a old bttv card (bt848) and there are no issues when receiving that using mplayer.21:50
dae_The really strange thing is that is I increase the loglevel of the backend to "all" the stuttering becomes significantly worse (more pauses then video actually).21:51
dae_The backend process has a dedicated disk for the recordings, not the same disk as the logfiles.21:52
dae_The backend process is sitting around 30-35% CPU when watching live TV, the CPU utilization does not depend on the log level (as expected).21:53
rhpot1991dae_: it would prob be helpful to paste some logs21:55
rhpot1991!logs21:55
ZinnMythTV logs are stored in /var/log/mythtv/   You can use mythbuntu-log-grabber from the Applications menu to automatically post the most relevant logs to our pastebin.21:55
dae_rhpot1991, from loglevel "all" ?21:55
AzelphurHi, trying to use mythnetvision in mythbuntu, on the wiki it says it has support for bbc iplayer, but I don't have that as an option under "Manage Site Subscriptions"23:21
AzelphurI have a few others, such as youtube and vimeo, I'd say about half of the stuff it supports is missing23:21
Azelphurah, 0.24 only23:29
Azelphurmust be time for an upgrade ;)23:30
