[02:58] <gaurdro> I have a hvr-1600 that won't lock on to the audio portion.   would an amplifier help with that?
[03:10] <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?
[03:33] <tgm4883> qwebirc66929, I'm in the process of posting the page
[03:36] <qwebirc66929> Oh ok ... just wasn't sure what was going on... thanks

[03:49] <tgm4883> !release
[03:49] <Zinn> Mythbuntu 10.04 http://www.mythbuntu.org/downloads
[12:46] <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
[14:08] <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  The only reviews I can find are of outdated cards that arent on the market anymore.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
[14:09] <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"
[14:11] <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
[14:12] <DroneWork> TIA
[14:14] <DroneWork> Internal preffered BTW
[14:24] <DroneWork> Or any solution that works with Comcast services and allows HD content through as well.
[14:24] <DroneWork> Off to work I go.
[14:30] <rhpot1991> DroneWork: for comcast HD I'd recommend a HDHR and a HDPVR
[14:31] <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
[14:36] <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?
[14:39] <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
[14:40] <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?
[14:41] <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
[14:43] <DroneWork> The HDHR just gives it the ability to pause your stream if I understand it correctly?
[14:44] <rhpot1991> DroneWork: its a dual tuner, clear qam and astc

[14:45] <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
[14:46] <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
[14:48] <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
