[00:32] Azelphur, some of them may work under 0.23 [00:32] you will have to test them [00:32] tgm4883: they don't appear in the list lol [00:32] I wouldn't recommend updating to 0.24 on a production box yet [00:32] Azelphur, that is because they aren't shipped by default [00:33] oh, how would I enable iplayer? [00:33] I have a PPA with some of them on there, I don't recall if the iplayer one is on there or not [00:33] I can check when I get home, if not, it's a simple addition. Although the build process is backed up [00:33] I'd be interested in trying that :) [00:33] cool, let me know [00:33] Ok, ping me in about 2 hours in case I forget [00:33] BBL [00:33] willco [02:11] Azelphur, good news for you, looks like I already have the iplayer grabber in the package [02:11] are you using 10.04? [02:11] cool [02:11] yup, mythbuntu 10.04 [02:11] hi folks... where can I find a utility to config my WiFi connection? [02:11] qwebirc52197, should be installed by default [02:12] Azelphur, https://edge.launchpad.net/~tgm4883/+archive/ppa/+files/mythnetvision-grabbers_1.2-0ubuntu0+mythbuntu~lucid_all.deb [02:12] [edge.launchpad.net] [02:12] ty [02:12] install that, it's basically me taking the grabbers that aren't shipped in mythbuntu [02:12] thanks.. under which menu? I'm just not seeing it.. =( [02:12] I did that awhile ago, so anything that is newer is still missing, but I know iplayer is in there [02:13] qwebirc52197, should be an icon in the upper right of your screen [02:13] networkmanager [02:13] k thx [02:15] yup, very nice, all working :D [02:16] well, I see it in the grabbers, I have yet to play video, so all was a bit premature :P [02:17] yup, that's working nicely :) [02:54] tgm4883: weird problem, it appears it's loading the page correctly, the iplayer flash comes up, displays a screenshot of the correct episode, you hit play, it says "This content doesn't seem to be working. Try again later" [02:54] no problem in Firefox [02:54] Azelphur, odd [02:56] Azelphur, do you have python-lxml installed? [02:56] yes [02:56] Daviey, do you use MNV with iplayer? [02:56] * tgm4883 isn't in the UK, so can't use iplayer [02:57] haha, coincidence, I know Daviey :) [02:57] tis 3am here so he's probably asleep, though [02:57] should probably ask again at a more uk-ish sort of time [02:57] and by asleep, you mean he is a slacker ;) [02:57] indeed xD [02:58] I been renting a VPS off him for over a year now, his website is still exactly the same as it was when I first rented :D [02:58] "This website IS configured" [02:58] lol [02:58] heh [02:58] what site? [02:58] http://vpserve.com/ [02:58] [vpserve.com] [02:59] heh, nice [02:59] indeed :P [02:59] but yea I shall prod him about it tommorow and see how far I get [03:01] ok [03:11] anyone here please [03:11] nope [03:11] good then [03:11] lol [03:12] keep freezing all the time [03:12] turn the heating on? [03:12] mcl0vin: what keeps freezing? [03:16] mythbuntu [03:16] anything you do that causes it to freeze? or does it just freeze at random [03:17] randomly ...am running ubuntu 9.10 [03:17] I'd start by running memtest [03:18] new mem bought less than 2 weeks [03:18] is that because the old memory failed? [03:19] now pc start but mythtv doesn't [03:19] no upgrade from 512 to 2 GB [03:20] well, I'm not sure how to debug it so I'd start by running memtest [03:20] you've gotta start eliminating possibilities, and that's one of em :p [03:21] Azelphur: ok ki will do it tonight , i just start it manually now ...kido want to wact a cartoon movie [03:21] :) [03:22] stay in here and hopefully someone will have some better suggestions for you [03:22] but can u help me dig some logs [03:22] I'm not sure what to look for, and it's 3:20am here I'm in need of sleep [03:22] but stick around, I'm sure someone can help with that [03:22] :) i will like every other day [03:23] good night === mcl0vin_ is now known as mcl0vin [08:17] hi, is this error common. the video frame buffering dfailed to many times [08:23] i've seen it a few times [08:24] i don't quite remember when, but it was while fast forwarding while the box was very very busy doing stuff on the hard disk i think [08:26] Jay2k1 my brothe rinlaw has jsut set it up on his media machine in lounge room. im slowly converting him to linux. he says the channels jsut drop out. could you give some tips of things i can tell him to troublehshoot? [08:26] sorry but i have no idea :/ i'm relatively new to that whole myth / watching tv on linux thing [08:29] how bout cant get channel # or set channel as default, seen that? [08:29] nope [08:30] but all that sounds like something is seriously f*cked up there [08:30] hehehe yeah mate [08:30] not bagging ppl here coz i know how irc works but does this cahnnel get supported much or shoudl i be looking elsewhere [08:37] i got helped here often [08:38] but it's mainly the same few people that talk, you probably have to wait 1-2 hrs or even come back later in the evening [08:38] (talking about CET) [08:43] im happy to wait === qwebirc30631 is now known as mcblack [12:21] hi @all [12:21] i've got a liitle problem with a fresh install of mythbuntu 10.04 maybe somone here can give me a hint [12:22] the system shut's down on itself from time to time [12:22] with : Broadcast message from root@xbmc (unknown) at 13:06 ... The system is going down for halt NOW! [12:22] while the frontend is running? [12:23] it doesn't need to run, but it doesn't matter also [12:25] just for the record : [12:26] I've also installed vdr and xbmc from the testing branch [12:26] but I can't find something with ps or in the crontabs [13:08] Have you tried uninstalling or disabling xbmc, since that is what is in the Broadcast message? [13:09] xbmc is the name of the machine [13:25] Hi, can anyone help me setup my Hauppage TV remote with mythbuntu? [13:25] I tried using the control center and selecting Hauppage DVB-s card (ver 2.1) but only some of the buttons work [13:26] I think the remote is actually being detected as a HID rather than a remote, as it actually sends keystroke rather than just commands to mythtv [13:27] and the buttons that don't correspond to actual keyboard buttons don't work (EG red/green/yellow/blue,TV,Videos don't work) [13:50] Azelphur, I'll help. First can you run "ls /dev/input/by-path" [13:51] pci-0000:00:10.0-usb-0:1:1.0-event-kbd pci-0000:00:10.0-usb-0:1:1.1-mouse pci-0000:00:10.0-usb-0:1:1.1-event-mouse pci-0000:00:10.0-usb-0:1:1.2-event [13:51] ty :) [13:54] The only other HID I have connected is a USB HTPC Keyboard with built in trackball, if that's relevant [13:55] right [13:55] for each of those listed [13:55] you need to do this [13:55] sudo cat /dev/input/by-path/pci-0000:00:10.0-usb-0:1:1.0-event-kbd [13:56] Then press keyboard buttons, if it is the right one it'll spew a bunch of crap when you press a button on the remote (you need to press the buttons that DONT work) [13:57] pci-0000:00:10.0-usb-0:1:1.0-event-kbd is the keyboard [13:58] none of them appear to be the remote [13:59] pci-0000:00:10.0-usb-0:1:1.2-event does nothing whatever I press [13:59] when you say the keyboard, you mean the 0-9 and enter keys on the remote? or your physical keyboard attached? [13:59] physical keyboard [14:00] most remove devices on the new kernel have 2 inputs - one is the remote keyboard (i.e 0-9, enter) and the other is the special keys which you need to configure with LIRC [14:02] well -mouse and -event-mouse are both the physical mouse, -kbd is the physical keyboard [14:02] do "dmesg | grep dvb" [14:03] [ 18.330550] cx88/2: cx2388x dvb driver version 0.0.7 loaded | [ 18.330555] cx88/2: registering cx8802 driver, type: dvb access: shared [14:03] (if the output is long don't spam it here, instead use pastebin.com. you can do "sudo apt-get install pastebinit" and then add "> pastebinit" to the end of a command) [14:03] ah cool [14:04] yea, I will use a pastebin if it's long, no point for 2 lines though :) [14:04] no indeed [14:04] what card is it? The HD nova?

[14:06] nothing from the remote, no [14:06] if its plugged in, they should definitely output [14:07] kbd is physical keyboard, mouse and event-mouse are the mouse, event doesn't seem to do anything [14:07] and I notice they all say usb, the remote is not a USB device [14:07] ls /dev/lirc* [14:07] /dev/lircd [14:07] its that little 3.5mm jack right? [14:08] yup, IR Reciever into the DVB-S card on the 3.5mm jack [14:08] "cat /dev/lircd" and try pressing a range of buttons [14:08] cat: /dev/lircd: No such device or address [14:08] uhh "sudo !!" [14:08] same again [14:09] wtf... it just said it was there! [14:09] ls -la /dev/lirc [14:09] it's /dev/lircd, missing d :) [14:09] lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 2010-06-06 08:20 /dev/lircd -> /var/run/lirc/lircd [14:09] oh yeah sorry [14:10] uhhh [14:10] I think I noobed it [14:10] "ls /dev/input/lirc* -la" I think its in /dev/input lol [14:10] hehe, No such file or directory [14:11] ok [14:11] "sudo cat /dev/input/event*" will cat all of the devices, it might get messy, try not to press anything but the remote. [14:12] no output from that when pressing buttons on the remote. [14:12] that confuses me. just for the hell of it try running "irw" and see what comes up when you press keys [14:12] Keithamus: Please watch your language. [14:12] no output from the keyboard either [14:13] no output from irw [14:13] pressing keys 1-9 works yeah? [14:13] yea [14:13] and the arrows [14:15] k open a second terminal window, and do: "sudo /etc/init.d/lirc stop; sudo lircd -n -H devinput -d /dev/lircd" [14:15] in the first terminal window run irw again [14:17] interesting output from the sudo command [14:17] sure [14:17] lets see [14:17] http://pastebin.com/u3Rx4mYJ [14:18] also I think I may have an idea why it can't access the hardware, looking in lsmod I have a module called "ir_common" loaded [14:18] oh yeah your /dev/lircd was naff wasnt it? Errr... grrr. Its like your remote doesnt exist! [14:18] ir_common 38875 1 cx88xx [14:18] maybe it's hijacking the remote so lirc can't get at it [14:18] I dont think that matters much, because if its pluggin in it should be in /dev [14:19] ok [14:19] /dev/lirc* are usually just simlinks to other /dev/ files. [14:20] so any other ideas? [14:20] hmm. "dmesg | grep -i remote" ?

[14:55] so edit that, then sudo /etc/init.d/lircd restart [14:55] still nothing from irw [14:55] you should rarely have to reboot - the exception being finicky stuff like udev which is a pita to restart [14:55] it says it restarted ok though [14:55] hmm [14:56] sudo /etc/init.d/lircd stop; sudo lircd -n -H devinput -d /dev/input/lirc [14:56] then irw [14:56] it's /etc/init.d/lirc btw [14:57] Keithamus: yup irw works now [14:57] k [14:57] double check your hardware.conf, make sure the driver is set to devinput, and make sure theres no weird looking comments.. infact, perhaps pastebin your conf here [14:58] http://pastebin.com/vbHUX3p1 [14:58] so yeah, REMOTE DRIVER needs to be devinput [14:58] probably best to comment out all the TRANSMITTER lines unless you have a blaster? [14:59] ok [14:59] no blaster :) [14:59] so now restart lircd again? [14:59] sudo /etc/init.d/lirc restart [15:00] and then you should *fingers crossed* be good to go [15:00] Unable to load LIRC kernel modules. Verify your selected kernel modules in /etc/lirc/hardware.conf [15:00] ohh... its funny [15:00] lemme check mine [15:00] REMOTE_MODULES="devinput" yea? [15:01] yeah [15:01] i hate lirc you know [15:01] try REMOTE_MODULES="dev/input" [15:02] no luck [15:04] edit it back to "devinput" and try rebooting. Lirc's conf is really unreliable compared to straight up cli [15:04] sometimes I'll have it perfect, reboot and it breaks, sometimes it'll be broken I'll reboot and it works... its just weird like that. [15:05] \o/ [15:06] it works? :D [15:06] irw doesn't work (connect: No such file or directory) [15:08] Keithamus: I got it [15:08] REMOTE_MODULES="" [15:08] REMOTE_DRIVER="dev/input" [15:08] ah awesome, that works? Even after reboot? [15:08] just checking the reboot now [15:09] Told you lirc's conf was finicky ;) [15:09] hehe [15:10] yup works after the boot [15:10] XD [15:10] wd, you managed to tame the lirc beast! [15:11] ty :D [15:11] most of the buttons now just work with mythtv too [15:11] yeah, awesome [15:11] for the top set (i.e TV, Radio etc) you need to set those shortcuts [15:11] I see, in the mythtv edit keys menu? [15:11] something like Settings > Shortcuts > Edit Shortcuts > Global Jump keys [15:11] yeah [15:12] Im sure its called Global Jump keys [15:12] Setup > Edit Keys > JumpPoints [15:13] ah [15:13] oh dear, it doesn't pick up on the top set, I can't bind them [15:13] they do work though, and are detected correctly by irw [15:15] Keithamus: any ideas on how I'd get them to life? [15:15] check the remote config [15:15] where's that? [15:15] uhhh [15:15] its in /etc/lirc/ [15:15] dunno what the filename is though [15:16] hardware.conf hardware.conf.old lircd.conf lircd.conf.dpkg-old lircmd.conf [15:16] probably lircd.conf [15:17] lircd.conf includes a nice long and confusing looking file in /usr/share [15:17] yeah [15:17] you in nano? [15:18] or grep it [15:18] basically find the key you're after [15:18] http://pastebin.com/1GiF7jcQ [15:18] so...
