BLZbubbaok if i put nfs filesystems in fstab, it fails to boot in upstart00:23
[R]BLZbubba: so don't put an nfs filesystem in fstab?00:25
PMantisBLZbubba, Try disabling that entry, and just use autofs to mount on demand.00:26
PMantisBLZbubba, As far as debugging, not sure where to start, but wanted to offer that.00:27
BLZbubba[R]: yes that is definitely one option00:27
BLZbubbaautofs is too PFM, not reliable00:27
rhpot1991PMantis: mind making a bug for that?00:29
rhpot1991the mythexport issue00:29
PMantisrhpot1991, http://www.mythbuntu.org/ is down01:08
superm1PMantis, Daviey will have to fix that01:11
superm1Daviey, ^01:11
PMantisI'm at a loss now: "ERROR: No resulting file from ffmpeg, most likely your ffmpeg failed.  Enable debugging and test by hand.". I went as far as adding "$debug = 1;" in the mythexport-daemon script, no more info in the log file. I installed all the codecs I could think of, but without being able to see what ffmpeg is doing, how do I mode on?01:24
PMantiss/mode/move/01:24
Gibby_awaysuperm1: Yep it is up there01:30
PMantisOk, I tracked down one more issue with mythexport_daemon, REALLY wish the website was up, so I could report bugs.02:14
PMantisIf I make an otg request, the pattern match near line 342 causes $block to be "true" rather than the name of the podcast. Because of that, all the export_cfg lines that rely on $block below that also fail.02:15

TechnophilIs there a setting that might make daylight saving happen 12 hours later?  (PM instead of AM)02:49
PMantisAlso, line # 235 has an error: "export("starttime=$currentstarttime&chanid=currentchanid&config=$block&otg=true");".  Should have a "$" in front of currentchanid.02:50
mrandPMantis: bugs get reported to launchpad... best thing to do is to do "ubuntu-bug mythexport" from a shell window on your system.  If that isn't possible for some reason, you can report it here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mythexport02:55
Zinn[bugs.launchpad.net] Bugs : “mythexport” package : Ubuntu02:55
PMantismrand, Ahh, thanks. Will do that once I have my changes completed.02:56
mrandPMantis: awesome.  thanks!02:56
PMantismrand, Fighting with ffmpeg right now. Stupid restrictions!02:57
mrandFor some reason, those two terms seem to be used together frequently.02:57
PMantisheh02:58
martin__I cannot get either network card working (RT3090 wireless or MCP79 nvidia wired ethernet)03:03
rhpot1991PMantis: I can tell you I haven't gotten much feedback on the OTG section so any bugs you can dig up in there would be greatly appreciated03:07
rhpot1991also I don't use that portion myself so it gets neglected in testings other than a quick check03:08
PMantisrhpot1991, And if you can tell me how to get ffmpeg to behave with 10.04 and libmp3lame, that would push me forward faster. I tried installing the libmp3lame-dev packaged, medibuntu, whatever else I could find in forums...03:09
rhpot1991PMantis: odd it should just work03:09
rhpot1991PMantis: what device are you aiming for?03:09
PMantisiphone & ipod touch's03:09
rhpot1991PMantis: then I'd recommend you use aac, you have medibuntu enabled already?03:10
PMantisYeah03:10
rhpot1991PMantis: also OTG may not be the best way to go about those devices, its prob better to setup a normal user job and tell a recording to do your ipod export each time it records03:11
rhpot1991oh wiki is down, drats03:11
PMantisIt's calling ffmpeg with libmp3lame based on me choosing "ipod". Where can I cahnge that?03:11
PMantisYeah, whole site is dead. :(03:11
rhpot1991PMantis: install libavcodec-extra-5203:12
PMantisAlready have. :)03:12
rhpot1991and then open /etc/mythtv/mythexport/mythexport_settings.cfg03:13
rhpot1991replace libmp3lame with libfaac03:13
PMantisAhhhh03:13
rhpot1991if it is still not working after that, I would setup a normal user job and run it on a single recording03:14
PMantisIt's also leaving 5.1 surround intact. A waste on a stereo device. :)03:14
rhpot1991get that to work before tacking OTG, even though I don't think OTG fits your needs so much03:14
rhpot1991its more for taking a bunch of recordings on a laptop type deal03:14
rhpot1991PMantis: ya I've had issue tackling defaults vs user configurable for quite some time03:14
PMantisrhpot1991, Well, I have the user jobs there. But I'm not gonna schedule a recording then wait a day between testing.03:15
rhpot1991redid the config section for maverick in an attempt to fix that while still letting you tweak to your hearts content03:15
rhpot1991PMantis: what I'd say to do is tell it to run userjob whatever on your recording whatever03:15
rhpot1991then every time you hit the rss feed its waiting for you03:15
PMantisRight. Exactly what I did.03:16
PMantisBut, if ffmpeg is failing, then that won't work either.03:16
rhpot1991wiki walks you through it pretty well but thats down now03:16
rhpot1991yep03:16
PMantisso I'm using otg to trigger, tweak, then trigger again, etc.03:16
rhpot1991ffmpeg tends to spoil everything if it gets unhappy03:16
PMantisYuuuuup :)03:16
rhpot1991PMantis: I'd make a 1 or 2 minute recording and test with that03:16
rhpot1991also you can launch user jobs from mythweb on a specific recording, works very well for testing ffmpeg issues03:17
PMantisOh... true...03:17
* PMantis just added -ac 2 to his settings.03:18
rhpot1991that will fix your sound03:18
rhpot1991there is a spot in the web interface for that too03:18
PMantisrhpot1991, Yeah, but using the web interface reverts it back to libmp3lame03:20
rhpot1991PMantis: yep, forgot about that03:21
PMantisok, it's exporting fringe right now. :)03:21
PMantisrhpot1991, So I take it you're the maintainer of mythexport?03:24

PMantisWow, 130mb and still going... a little large for a 1hr show03:58

martin___there are 3 DNS servers in /etc/resolv.conf, added by NetworkManager04:04
martin___eth1 DHCP transaction took too long... I don't get it04:05
rhpot1991PMantis: upstream04:41
martin__I don't have a proper network connection yet. NetworkManager obtains an IP from my router, but names are still not resolved, and ping to external IP addresses do not work. Yet the proper DNS entries were put in /etc/resolv.conf05:44
martin__could it be an ipv6 problem?06:30
PMantisBug 598439 actually mentions two separate problems with the code. I filed 3 bugs tonight, and 2 explain what's happening with this bug, come to find out.07:09
ZinnBug 598439 in mythexport (Ubuntu) "mythexport generates names like ---20100418192800 and thus fails ffmpeg." [Undecided, Incomplete] http://www.launchpad.net/bugs/59843907:09
PMantisWow, actually all 3 of my reports are mentioned in passing in this one bug. However, my reports also diagnose exactly what's happening and how to fix it.07:11
PMantisrhpot1991, Please have a look at my reports.07:11
