| qwebirc66929 | Hello I am just wondering why there is nothing on the 10.10 betas or RC posted on the Mythbuntu site? I like to test the new releases just was wondering if this ment they weren't stable enough yet or what was going on? | 03:10 |
| tgm4883 | qwebirc66929, I'm in the process of posting the page | 03:33 |
| qwebirc66929 | Oh ok ... just wasn't sure what was going on... thanks | 03:36 |

| rileyp | If I want surround sound in myth on my front end do I need to adjust settings on my backend in the shed to ensure recording are recorded in 5.1 or is all that info embedded in the mpeg2 stream | 12:46 |
| DroneWork | anyone here use a decent cablecard tuner with multistream capabilities on their ubuntu system? The only reviews I can find are of outdated cards that arent on the market anymore. I even found the april fools joke on mythbuntu.com before I realized it was an april fools joke, lol | 14:08 |
| DroneWork | Had my going for awhile, as I am a Comcast technician and was saying to myself "wtf...we didn't get any training on this" | 14:09 |
| DroneWork | Well I will be off to work, if anyone has some insight for me on decent cards, send it to me via a PM so it doesnt get lost in the channel spam. I am doing this partly for myself and partly because I ran across another customer that was trying to accomplish this and wouldn't mind having the experience to help him and future customers | 14:11 |
| DroneWork | TIA | 14:12 |
| DroneWork | Internal preffered BTW | 14:14 |
| DroneWork | Or any solution that works with Comcast services and allows HD content through as well. | 14:24 |
| DroneWork | Off to work I go. | 14:24 |
| rhpot1991 | DroneWork: for comcast HD I'd recommend a HDHR and a HDPVR | 14:30 |
| rhpot1991 | I use comcast, you can see my setup here: http://www.baablogic.net/drupal/node/13 | 14:31 |
| Zinn | [www.baablogic.net] My MythTV Setup | www.baablogic.net | 14:31 |
| DroneWork | So the PVR is not a tuner...it just records, the HDHR is a tuner? How do you force it to activate with Comast? Does it take a cablecard? | 14:36 |
| DroneWork | Or are you still using a Comcast HD box and then streaming it out to your PC via Component/HDMI? | 14:39 |
| rhpot1991 | no cablecard tuners for linux yet | 14:39 |
| rhpot1991 | so the HDHR does clear qam | 14:39 |
| rhpot1991 | and the HDPVR records out of your stb's component ports | 14:39 |
| DroneWork | aahhhh | 14:39 |
| rhpot1991 | sometimes firewire will work for comcast too | 14:39 |
| rhpot1991 | its not very reliable for the most part, and largely depends on your area | 14:40 |
| DroneWork | ok I understand the PVR and still using a Comast box....whats the HDHRs function? | 14:40 |
| DroneWork | I am a Comcast Tech, so as far as troubleshooting different types of boxes and whatnot is not an issue for me, its the other parts I need to...make sure are compatible with linux | 14:41 |
| DroneWork | The HDHR just gives it the ability to pause your stream if I understand it correctly? | 14:43 |
| rhpot1991 | DroneWork: its a dual tuner, clear qam and astc | 14:44 |

| rhpot1991 | they do have a cablecard product coming out, wont be out till next year though I don't think | 14:45 |
| DroneWork | They have a few, for $400 + | 14:45 |
| rhpot1991 | well they as in silicon dust | 14:45 |
| DroneWork | ati tv wonder and ceton inititv 4 | 14:45 |
| DroneWork | ah gotcha | 14:45 |
| rhpot1991 | there are others out there, but they will not work with linux | 14:45 |
| DroneWork | I get my equipment cheap, being an employee and all, but I like to mess around with new technology/home theater/ etc and whatnot | 14:46 |
| DroneWork | Thanks for your help, you've definately pointed me in a good direction with your personal setup Rhpot199 | 14:48 |
| DroneWork | Gotta leave for real this time, I will idle here as I am sure I will have more questions when I get home tonight | 14:48 |
