[00:38]  * ComradeHaz` tentatively pokes fluvvell
[00:39] <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
[00:40] <ComradeHaz`> Uh, this isn't on a recording. This is on DVD images, flv's etc
[00:40] <ComradeHaz`> not flv
[00:41] <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...
[00:42] <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.
[00:43] <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?
[00:44] <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.
[00:45] <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.
[00:46] <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] <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!
[00:47] <fluvvell> ha ha small world eh.
[00:47] <ComradeHaz`> Aye.
[00:47] <ComradeHaz`> Fun! Right, off! See ya!
[00:47] <fluvvell> yep bye
[10:12] <fluvvell> what does   Received a remote 'Clear Cache' request  5 times before the client crashes mean ?
[18:07] <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
[18:08] <tgm4883> is channel 60 just static?
[18:08] <qwebirc18083> yes
[18:08] <tgm4883> so... it's working then?
[18:09] <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
[18:10] <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?
[18:11] <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
[18:12] <tgm4883> Did you scan for channels?
[18:12] <qwebirc18083> i tried but the scan failed
[18:12] <tgm4883> ok, any error messages?
[18:13] <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?
[18:14] <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
[18:15] <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?
[18:16] <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
[18:17] <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
[18:18] <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
[18:19] <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?
[18:20] <qwebirc18083> this has work before on the last version of mythtv because I have done before and it has worked
[18:20] <qwebirc18083> vip722
[18:21] <rhpot1991> qwebirc18083: so go into mythtv-setup and make sure you are using the coax input and its preset to channel 60?
[18:22] <qwebirc18083> i have done this several times and change to different channels still doesn't work
[18:23] <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?
[18:24] <qwebirc18083> the is starting on 73
[18:25] <rhpot1991> check your channels in mythtv-setup, I suspect that you may only have 73 in there
[18:26] <qwebirc18083> have all my channels from scheduledirect
[18:27] <qwebirc18083> well thank you need to go
 have all my channels from scheduledirect
[18:27] <tgm4883> theres your problem
[18:28]  * tgm4883 sighs
[18:39] <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.
[19:00] <rhpot1991> tgm4883: no idea how thats gonna work without him blasting though
[19:02] <tgm4883> rhpot1991, it's not
[19:04] <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
[19:20] <rhpot1991> sounds like a lack of overscan issue
