| tgm4883 | Azelphur, mythfrontend --version | 00:09 |
|---|---|---|
| tgm4883 | and for 0.23.1, you could do 'dpkg-reconfigure mythbuntu-repos' and select 0.23.1 | 00:09 |
| Azelphur | s25362 | 00:09 |
| Azelphur | tgm4883: I get 404 when doing apt-get update | 00:12 |
| Azelphur | apparently lucid/main/source/Sources.gz for 0.23.1 is dead | 00:12 |
| === henkpoley_ is now known as henkpoley | ||
| tgm4883 | Azelphur, use either ppa or de | 00:13 |
| Azelphur | downloading the upgrade :) | 00:15 |
| Azelphur | tgm4883: hehe, now I have the age old protocol version error | 00:19 |
| tgm4883 | ah yea, you will get that as the protocol version change is what prompted 0.23.1 | 00:19 |
| tgm4883 | so you would need to upgrade your backend as well then | 00:20 |
| tgm4883 | 0.23.0 is on the old version | 00:20 |
| Azelphur | will my backend upgrade too if I get them all on the same repo? | 00:21 |
| tgm4883 | yea | 00:21 |
| Azelphur | cool | 00:21 |
| Azelphur | what version should I go with | 00:22 |
| tgm4883 | if you use 3rd party apps like the osx frontend, then 0.23.0 | 00:22 |
| tgm4883 | otherwise update | 00:22 |
| tgm4883 | 0.23.0 won't get any more updates | 00:22 |
| Azelphur | yea all I use is Linux and web frontend | 00:23 |
| mito_ | Hey all | 03:27 |
| mito_ | Just getting back into the MythTV thing after being away from it for 2 years and having an issue I don't remember having before | 03:27 |
| mito_ | Right now I have an ATI card that needs the custom drivers (a Radeon 9600), I enabled it via the MCP and that thinks it's there, because it shows me the icon for the aticccp but when I try to use the aticccp it tells me there are no valid drivers installed | 03:29 |
| mito_ | the display works fine when connected to a PC monitor, but when connected to a TV it can't display the resolution and goes to "unusable signal" | 03:30 |
| mito_ | I checked my xorg.conf and it is set to use the "radeon" driver like it's supposed to... I'm thinking about just changing the resolution in the xorg.conf as well but haven't tried that yet | 03:31 |
| mito_ | anyone have any ideas on how to get the ati driver utilities to work again? | 03:31 |
| rhpot1991 | mito_: what is MCP | 03:36 |
| rhpot1991 | you should use the restricted driver manager to enable the ATI drivers, and it should detect everything for you | 03:36 |
| mito_ | Mythbuntu Control Panel | 03:36 |
| mito_ | I tried, but it says there's no drivers present | 03:36 |
| mito_ | sorry, MCC | 03:37 |
| corigo | I have my network claiming it is connected, ifconfig shows wlan0 with an 10.x.x.x IP address, but my router is distributing 192.168.2.x | 07:31 |
| rileyp | symbolic link of recordings on front end not showing up in mounted dir | 14:31 |
| rhpot1991 | corigo: connected to someone else's router? | 14:32 |
| rileyp | IM using mythexport to create symlinks and tehlinks work on my backend | 14:33 |
| rileyp | I trhen mount recording and symlink folder on fromt end and the recodings show up and play on FE but the symlinks do not appear in the folder | 14:34 |
| rileyp | thats in the symlink folder and I have used exact same dir stucture | 14:35 |
| rhpot1991 | rileyp: so you are sharing out a folder from your backend to your frontend, via nfs or something? | 14:53 |
| rhpot1991 | or am I not understanding it | 14:53 |
| rileyp | yes with samba | 14:53 |
| rileyp | its a permissions problem | 14:53 |
| rhpot1991 | permission, or something is outside the scope of your share | 14:54 |
| rhpot1991 | why it this necessary? | 14:54 |
| rhpot1991 | mythbackend should automagically have recordings available to mythfrontend | 14:54 |
| rileyp | I have a network media player front end So I need symlink folder with decent names to read of my myth recordings | 14:55 |
| rhpot1991 | oh so by frontend you don't mean mythtv frontend | 14:55 |
| rileyp | I test that symlink folder works on my mythbuntu front first though | 14:55 |
| rileyp | yes I do meanmythfront end But I dont usually open that folder on my mythbuntu front end its only there to ensure it will work on my network media player | 14:57 |
| rileyp | l????????? ? ? ? ? ? Blackadder Goes Forth.3.mpg | 14:58 |
| rileyp | when I do ls -l that what I get on the front end | 14:58 |
| rileyp | all recodrings look like that How can I fix that | 14:58 |
| rileyp | sudo chown dad * | 15:00 |
| rileyp | chown: cannot access `Adaptation.2.mpg': Permission denied is the result I get | 15:00 |
| rhpot1991 | sudo | 15:01 |
| rileyp | I did sudo | 15:01 |
| rhpot1991 | sudo chown mythtv:mythtv file | 15:01 |
| rileyp | Ive tried that too | 15:02 |
| rileyp | Ive tried that too sudo chown mythtv:mythtv * | 15:02 |
| rileyp | it says chown cannot access as above | 15:03 |
| rhpot1991 | cause a symlink inherts its owenership | 15:06 |
| rileyp | hmm so attempting to change the ownership fails? | 15:07 |
| rileyp | is this correct? | 15:07 |
| rhpot1991 | ya thats normal | 15:08 |
| rhpot1991 | dunno why you are seeing ? all over there though | 15:08 |
| rhpot1991 | seems like the link may be bad | 15:08 |
| rileyp | the links open on the back end so they are good | 15:09 |
| rhpot1991 | how do you know its opening that link and not the recording itself? | 15:09 |
| rileyp | the symlink opens the recording thats correct | 15:10 |
| rhpot1991 | but how have you tested it | 15:10 |
| rileyp | eg merlin open a recording called 10107097654468.mpg | 15:10 |
| rileyp | exxacgerated but you know what I mean | 15:10 |
| rhpot1991 | running mythfrontend is still going to go right to the recording itself | 15:10 |
| rhpot1991 | so unless you have done something outside of myth you haven't really tested it | 15:11 |
| rileyp | Im not using it in mythfront end | 15:11 |
| rileyp | mythfront end woks fine :D | 15:11 |
| rhpot1991 | yes I know, but I'm saying that doesn't test the symlinks, so saying that doesn't mean theya re ok | 15:12 |
| rhpot1991 | also I'd venture using mythlink.pl in /usr/share/doc/mythtv-backend/contrib/user_jobs may be a better choice for you here | 15:12 |
| rileyp | well the symlink I open on the backend from the backend opens my recording | 15:13 |
| rhpot1991 | rileyp: right but how did you "open" them? | 15:13 |
| rileyp | point and click | 15:13 |
| rhpot1991 | rileyp: ok | 15:13 |
| rhpot1991 | then yes they should be ok | 15:13 |
| rileyp | on symlink icon in symlink folder | 15:13 |
| rhpot1991 | when you ls -l, was that from your backend, or from this frontend you are setting up? | 15:13 |
| rileyp | on front end | 15:14 |
| rhpot1991 | what do the links look like on the backend? | 15:14 |
| rileyp | on back erd hang on | 15:15 |
| rileyp | lrwxrwxrwx 1 dad mythtv 58 2010-08-16 23:52 Underbelly- The Golden Mile.3.mpg -> /home/dad/Documents/video/recorded/1009_20100516202500.mpg | 15:15 |
| rileyp | I have fiddled with permissions on both trying to resolve | 15:15 |
| rhpot1991 | backend looks good, I thought your paste from before was on the backend | 15:16 |
| rhpot1991 | ok so what folder are you sharing out via samba? | 15:16 |
| rhpot1991 | also you should use ciffs anymore not samba | 15:16 |
| rileyp | I share the symlink folder called recordings and the originial mythtv recording folder called recorded | 15:17 |
| rileyp | Ill show fstab setting | 15:18 |
| rileyp | /192.168.1.10/recordings /home/dad/Documents/video/recordings cifs auto,iocharset=utf8,uid=dad,gid=users,credentials=/root/.cifscredentials,file_mode=0775,dir_mode=0775 0 0 | 15:19 |
| rileyp | and same for recorded | 15:19 |
| rileyp | I use same dir stucture on frontend as backend the original files play fine in vlc on my front ned when i point and click on the file | 15:20 |
| rileyp | in the /recorded folder on my front ned which is mounted as above | 15:21 |
| rileyp | but the symlinks the stupid bl!@$##@ symlinks wont play football | 15:21 |
| rhpot1991 | ok, well you generally want to avoid using your home directory for mythtv folders | 15:22 |
| rhpot1991 | causes all sorts of permission headaches | 15:22 |
| rileyp | ok thats good to know | 15:23 |
| rileyp | Ill have to work on that | 15:23 |
| rhpot1991 | may be part or all of your issue here | 15:24 |
| rhpot1991 | here is what I would recommend | 15:24 |
| rhpot1991 | move that directory back to /var/lib/mythtv/recordings, or make /mythtv/whatever | 15:24 |
| rhpot1991 | then look into mythlink.pl like I mentioned above, the advantage there is that you can actually rename the recordings with it and not need to symlink | 15:25 |
| rhpot1991 | then you will get myth's autoexpire features and all for free | 15:25 |
| rhpot1991 | and will only have one folder to share out | 15:25 |
| rileyp | I have used mythlink.pl previoiusly and i found joy | 15:28 |
| rileyp | Ok Ill go mythlink I have only tried mythexport as it seemed like an easy ay to create nice names for recordings which it does do very well and easilly but Its problematic when using in a network enviroment as I have found out | 15:32 |
| rhpot1991 | rileyp: yep mythexport can do this, but I think using mythlink so everything can expire from mythtv itself is a better choice | 15:35 |
| rhpot1991 | with mythexport it does its own expiring separately | 15:35 |
| rhpot1991 | mythexport is more meant to make your latest recording available for 10 days, not to make all recordings available. Though you can make all of them available, but its not smart enough to know when they get deleted by the backend. | 15:38 |
| rhpot1991 | 10 was a random number I picked there, you can specify how many days you want | 15:39 |
| assco | hi! having trouble with putting my system to sleep (s3) using mythbuntu 10.04. i've tried almost everything in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NvidiaLaptopBinaryDriverSuspend and https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-173/+bug/34043 with no luck. issuing pm-suspend leaves my system hanging and after hardreboot it informs that no working configuration exists for my screen and has to run in low-graphics mode.
