| tgm4883 | tzanger, what about the link that says "Add to Existing Ubuntu Install" that is right on this page http://www.mythbuntu.org/download-type | 02:09 |
|---|---|---|
| tgm4883 | does that work for you :) | 02:09 |
| tzanger | hmm, is there any way to get mythtv's upnp server to show not only recordings but videos that are on the server? | 14:27 |
| tzanger | should I set up mediatomb for that instead? | 14:27 |
| rhpot1991 | ComradeH1z`: I've used it once | 14:36 |

| mrand | grrr. So this weekend I realized I hadn't upgraded my production machine 10.04 (I think tgm4883 and I were having a mexican standoff on who could wait the longest) I thought I had, but I guess I just strongly considered it and then didn't have time before go overseas (and I think the fact that 10.04.1 was weeks away factored into the decision). | 20:43 |
| mrand | Now that I'm back and the new release is about to come out, apparently I'm not supposed to upgrade to 10.04.1: ERROR Dist-upgrade failed: 'The package 'ubuntu-desktop' is marked for removal but it is in the removal blacklist.' | 20:43 |
| tgm4883 | mrand, you have to remove ubuntu-desktop | 20:44 |
| mrand | I don't want to. | 20:44 |
| tgm4883 | superm1, ^ | 20:44 |
| mrand | more properly, why should I? | 20:45 |
| * tgm4883 shrugs | 20:45 | |
| tgm4883 | I just know it works :) | 20:45 |
| tgm4883 | i've seen other users report the same | 20:45 |
| superm1 | do you have mythbuntu-desktop and ubuntu-desktop both installed? | 20:45 |
| tgm4883 | removing ubuntu-desktop, then reinstalling ubuntu-desktop after upgrade | 20:45 |
| mrand | superm1: yes, I do have both installed. | 20:46 |
| superm1 | sounds like an update-manager bug then | 20:46 |
| mrand | Yeah, sounds like the one I reported before 10.04 even got released. | 20:46 |
| splashd | I'm using the Hauppage HD-PVR wih Mythbuntu 10.04, recording 1080i and 720p. WOrks fine, but stores in h.264. I am using ION based frontends and VDPAU. Does anyone have anyone know how to solve an audio lag problem? I suspect it is because of underpowered decoding, but is there a config I can use to make it less overhead intensive to decode H.264? | 21:28 |
| rhpot1991 | splashd: verified its using VDPAU? | 21:29 |
| rhpot1991 | the ION frontned | 21:29 |
| splashd | yes--I've set to VDPAU Slim, works great for my HDHOmerun HD setup, just has audio lag on the HD-PVR stuff | 21:31 |
| rhpot1991 | splashd: ION should run VDPAU Normal | 21:32 |
| rhpot1991 | try that | 21:32 |
| rhpot1991 | mine runs HD-PVR content just fine | 21:32 |
| rhpot1991 | splashd: did you go into your ION's bios and increase the dedicated video memory? | 21:33 |
| rhpot1991 | and what kind of network? | 21:33 |
| splashd | rhpot1991, I will try VDPAU normal again, but I think it caused stuttering last time did that | 21:33 |
| splashd | I did not mess with BIOS--good suggestion | 21:34 |
| rhpot1991 | should bump it in there, to 512 if you can | 21:34 |
| rhpot1991 | 256 should do, but go 512 if you can | 21:34 |
| splashd | 100MB wired--again works fine with higher bitrate MPeg2 from HDhomerun | 21:34 |
| splashd | standby--I will try now | 21:34 |
| rhpot1991 | may need to check that your bios is up todate if it wont let you set memory for video | 21:34 |
| rhpot1991 | splashd: wired should be just fine | 21:34 |
| splashd | AFK | 21:35 |
| splashd | rhpot1991, This could take a while--a big mythbuntu update is downloading, so I'm waiting to reboot...I'll let you know if upping the buffering helps. | 21:47 |
| splashd | What did help a lot initially was updating to the latest Nvidia drivers | 21:47 |
| mrand | superm1: we thought we fixed the mythbuntu-desktop thing: Bug 554676 | 22:03 |
| Zinn | Bug 554676 in mythbuntu-default-settings (Ubuntu) "8.04LTS->10.04LTS upgrade failed: 'mythbuntu-desktop' missing meta-pkg?" [High, Fix Released] http://www.launchpad.net/bugs/554676 | 22:03 |
| superm1 | mrand, well it might be a similar manifestation of that | 22:12 |
| apothegm | I'm having issues getting my GYR3101 working via Lirc. I followed the wiki instructions but something is awry. IRW is saying connection refused. lircd is giving me "lircd: can't open or create /var/run/lirc/lircd.pid" | 23:20 |
| splashd | apothegm, make sure you look in /etc/lirc and confirm that there is both an lircd.conf and a hardware.conf, and that you're running lircd service | 23:34 |
| apothegm | yup | 23:35 |
| apothegm | I followed those wiki instructions EXACTLY. | 23:36 |
| mrand | I should break out my gyration remote and play with it. I don't know if I'll have time tonight, but we'll see. What version are you on, apothegm? | 23:36 |
| apothegm | I found some bug reports related to the "lircd: can't open or create /var/run/lirc/lircd.pid" which suggested creating lirc under /var/run because it DID NOT exist. after creating it I can run lircd from console, but it doesn't fix the problem | 23:36 |
| apothegm | Mythbuntu 10.04 | 23:37 |
| apothegm | I think LIRC is broken | 23:37 |
| mrand | lirc in 10.04 probably isn't broken in general... to many people use that. | 23:37 |
| mrand | the bug reports related to the .pid file - where they on launchpad? | 23:38 |
| apothegm | mrand: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lirc/+bug/474701/ | 23:42 |
| Zinn | [bugs.launchpad.net] Bug #474701 in lirc (Ubuntu): âCan't start lirc: "lircd: can't open or create /var/run/lirc/lircd.pid"â | 23:42 |
| mrand | apothegm: interesting. I may have to take back that it isn't broken in general, although I can't immediately explain why such few users would run into this problem. I just looked on my 9.10 system (what the bug was originally opened again) and that directory exists. I have a few test installs on different release versions I can check tonight. | 23:47 |
| apothegm | and if I reboot my mythbuntu 10.04 box, it removes /var/run/lirc | 23:49 |
| mrand | Is lircd supposed to create that every run? | 23:51 |
| mrand | kinda strange, I know. | 23:52 |
| mrand | superm1: ^ | 23:52 |
| superm1 | i think it does | 23:52 |
| mrand | actually, I think that may be the case... | 23:52 |
| mrand | everything in my /var/run is dated from the last reboot | 23:52 |
| mrand | apothegm: is lircd running? | 23:55 |
| apothegm | yes | 23:55 |
| apothegm | without lirc under /var/run, lircd from the console errors out | 23:56 |
| apothegm | and a reboot wipes that directory | 23:56 |
| apothegm | so I have to mkdir /var/run/lirc | 23:56 |
| apothegm | but it doesn't help me anyway | 23:56 |
| apothegm | I think I've officially spent too much time messing with this. might just go the xmodmap route | 23:57 |
| mrand | apothegm: be sure to subscribe to that bug so that if anyone finds a solution, you'll be notified. | 23:58 |
| apothegm | anyone else have a 10.04 install that can test it? | 23:59 |
| tgm4883 | I do, but i'm not at home | 23:59 |
| apothegm | this is practically a fresh copy of 10.04 from iso with little to no updates | 23:59 |
