| fluvvell | ComradeHaz`, you need to find a script that rebuilds the seek table. The earlier versions are a bit hazy but the one in ubuntu 10.04 works a treat. In fact its just mythcommflag, with something like "mythcommflag --file 2036_20100616203000.mpg --rebuild " Be careful to be in the correct recording directory at the time | 00:39 |
|---|---|---|
| ComradeHaz` | Uh, this isn't on a recording. This is on DVD images, flv's etc | 00:40 |
| ComradeHaz` | not flv | 00:40 |
| ComradeHaz` | mp4 | 00:41 |
| fluvvell | mp4's ? how did you get them in? | 00:41 |
| ComradeHaz` | they are essentially downloads. | 00:41 |
| fluvvell | sorry, just read a earlier post... | 00:41 |
| ComradeHaz` | get_iplayer, if you want to fo a quick google. | 00:42 |
| fluvvell | for the mpeg files that are recorded, there is a seek table produced so that when fast forwarding etc the player can line up at the first frame of an mpegged recording. | 00:42 |
| fluvvell | Maybe its similar for downloads of mp4s? | 00:43 |
| fluvvell | Or maybe you have to select a different player to play back your downloads. | 00:43 |
| fluvvell | vlc maybe? | 00:43 |
| ComradeHaz` | maybe. I'll try, but what do you mean by saying make sure I'm in the correct directory? | 00:43 |
| fluvvell | well that was in relation to recordings | 00:44 |
| ComradeHaz` | Oh? I can select different players? | 00:44 |
| fluvvell | Yep, in the mythtv setup, possibly the front end settings. | 00:44 |
| fluvvell | there is the built in player, but I've used vlc as an alternative player. You can pass parameters to hide the menus etc. | 00:45 |
| ComradeHaz` | Right, I'll try tomrrow now. Someone's watching tv now | 00:45 |
| fluvvell | Cheers, gotta run as well. | 00:45 |
| ComradeHaz` | OK, mind if I poke you if I get stuck? | 00:45 |
| fluvvell | but its midday here so.. Oh thats fine. I'll be in and out. | 00:45 |
| ComradeHaz` | Sure, thanks. | 00:45 |
| ComradeHaz` | Heheh | 00:46 |
| ComradeHaz` | nearly 1am here! | 00:46 |
| fluvvell | whats your timezone? | 00:46 |
| ComradeHaz` | Night night! | 00:46 |
| fluvvell | Oh ok | 00:46 |
| ComradeHaz` | UK | 00:46 |
| fluvvell | ha ha yes. Get some sleep! | 00:46 |
| ComradeHaz` | Cheers bud, laters! | 00:46 |
| fluvvell | NZ here! | 00:46 |
| ComradeHaz` | OOoh | 00:46 |
| ComradeHaz` | Where abouts? | 00:46 |
| fluvvell | Dunedin | 00:46 |
| ComradeHaz` | My ex moved there! | 00:46 |
| fluvvell | ha ha small world eh. | 00:47 |
| ComradeHaz` | Aye. | 00:47 |
| ComradeHaz` | Fun! Right, off! See ya! | 00:47 |
| fluvvell | yep bye | 00:47 |

| qwebirc18083 | I need to set a preset channel to 60 and when I do in input connections and launch live tv it is just static | 18:07 |
| tgm4883 | is channel 60 just static? | 18:08 |
| qwebirc18083 | yes | 18:08 |
| tgm4883 | so... it's working then? | 18:08 |
| qwebirc18083 | no there is no pictue | 18:09 |
| tgm4883 | you just told me that channel 60 is static. Mythtv doesn't make a picture from nothing | 18:09 |
| qwebirc18083 | the picture is just static no picture sorry | 18:10 |
| qwebirc18083 | i preset the channel in the input connections to 60 | 18:10 |
| tgm4883 | so channel 60 is suppose to have a picture on it? | 18:10 |
| qwebirc18083 | yes | 18:10 |
| tgm4883 | what tuner? | 18:10 |
| qwebirc18083 | wintv pvr-150 | 18:11 |
| tgm4883 | what input are you using? | 18:11 |
| qwebirc18083 | tuner 1 | 18:11 |
| tgm4883 | how do you have your cable hooked up in the back? | 18:11 |
| tgm4883 | via coax, or composite? | 18:11 |
| tgm4883 | or svideo | 18:11 |
| qwebirc18083 | via coax | 18:11 |
| tgm4883 | Did you scan for channels? | 18:12 |
| qwebirc18083 | i tried but the scan failed | 18:12 |
| tgm4883 | ok, any error messages? | 18:12 |
| qwebirc18083 | i can create a channel 60 in the channel editor then it will work but, if a channel is cahngne it loses my signal again | 18:13 |
| tgm4883 | do you have a cable box? | 18:13 |
| qwebirc18083 | dish network box yes | 18:14 |
| tgm4883 | ok, do you have a channel changing script? | 18:14 |
| qwebirc18083 | channel scan said failed to find any channels | 18:14 |
| tgm4883 | well yea, thats because your tuner will only see one channel | 18:15 |
| tgm4883 | you need to change the channel on the directv box via ir blasting or serial cable | 18:15 |
| qwebirc18083 | no | 18:15 |
| tgm4883 | no? | 18:15 |
| qwebirc18083 | no | 18:15 |
| tgm4883 | why not? | 18:15 |
| tgm4883 | that wasn't exactly a question | 18:16 |
| qwebirc18083 | because my mythtv server is in the other room and I dont have a uhf blaster | 18:16 |
| rhpot1991 | it doesn't automagically work | 18:16 |
| tgm4883 | so.... you want to use magic then? | 18:16 |
| rhpot1991 | you need to control the box somehow | 18:16 |
| qwebirc18083 | no I need to preset the channel to 60 in mythtv | 18:17 |
| tgm4883 | qwebirc18083, ok, you do that in mythtv-setup | 18:17 |
| tgm4883 | where you did it before | 18:17 |
| qwebirc18083 | i did but, it doesn't work | 18:17 |
| rhpot1991 | I'm pretty sure that is gonna default to 3 or 4 | 18:17 |
| rhpot1991 | and you'd use it just like a VCR | 18:18 |
| tgm4883 | rhpot1991, yea, I'm not sure why it's at 60 either | 18:18 |
| tgm4883 | qwebirc18083, have you tried 3 or 4? | 18:18 |
| rhpot1991 | it doesn't work like random cable | 18:18 |
| tgm4883 | qwebirc18083, why 60? | 18:18 |
| rhpot1991 | he needs to blast the receiver | 18:18 |
| rhpot1991 | or usb it or something | 18:18 |
| qwebirc18083 | dish network set it to 60 by default on the box and I cant change it to 4 or 3 | 18:18 |
| tgm4883 | thats odd | 18:19 |
| rhpot1991 | that doesn't sound right | 18:19 |
| tgm4883 | qwebirc18083, so if you hook the coax up to a TV from the dish network box, you have to go to channel 60 to see anything? | 18:19 |
| rhpot1991 | what model number receiver? | 18:19 |
| qwebirc18083 | this has work before on the last version of mythtv because I have done before and it has worked | 18:20 |
| qwebirc18083 | vip722 | 18:20 |
| rhpot1991 | qwebirc18083: so go into mythtv-setup and make sure you are using the coax input and its preset to channel 60? | 18:21 |
| qwebirc18083 | i have done this several times and change to different channels still doesn't work | 18:22 |
| qwebirc18083 | is there a way to just the frequency of the channel in mythtv | 18:23 |
| rhpot1991 | qwebirc18083: so what channel is it starting at then? | 18:23 |
| qwebirc18083 | the is starting on 73 | 18:24 |
| rhpot1991 | check your channels in mythtv-setup, I suspect that you may only have 73 in there | 18:25 |
| qwebirc18083 | have all my channels from scheduledirect | 18:26 |
| qwebirc18083 | well thank you need to go | 18:27 |
| tgm4883 | <qwebirc18083> have all my channels from scheduledirect | 18:27 |
| tgm4883 | theres your problem | 18:27 |
| * tgm4883 sighs | 18:28 | |
| assco | how can i finetune my channels in mythtv? i've got a couple of channels with a "dotted-line"-type white line above th picture. | 18:39 |
| rhpot1991 | tgm4883: no idea how thats gonna work without him blasting though | 19:00 |
| tgm4883 | rhpot1991, it's not | 19:02 |
| tgm4883 | assco, you can fine tune the channels in the channel editor (in mythtv-setup) | 19:04 |
| tgm4883 | AFAIK, there isn't a way anymore to do it from livetv. If there was, it would probably be under the M key | 19:04 |
| rhpot1991 | sounds like a lack of overscan issue | 19:20 |
