| banksy | About to update 0.23.1 to 0.24 (on mythbuntu 10.10), and inside mythbuntu control center > repos > if I activate 0.24 / PPA, it gives me a warning that 0.24 is in development and I must acknowledge the risk by typing YouMustBeThisTallToRide to continue - I assume this screen is out of date, given 0.24 is released? | 01:42 |
| banksy | Also confused about second tickbox, 'Activate Mythbuntu-testing PPA' - Assume I ignore that, given I don't want to be that cutting edge | 01:43 |
| pteague | eek, for some reason my guide data hasn't been updated... i'm thinking it's because the update script hasn't run... | 04:59 |
| pteague | crap, -3 days worth of guide data :( | 05:00 |
| pteague | no wonder i've not had any new recordings | 05:01 |
| miststlkr | Hello, all. thtvdb.com is still the default source for TV metadata, right? | 06:35 |
| Zinn | [thtvdb.com] thtvdb.com | 06:35 |
| miststlkr | the* | 06:35 |
| miststlkr | to get to the point.. I updated some show information on that site, and was wondering if there was supposed to be a delay between the info being uploaded and when it shows on our side when I retrieve metadata, or perhaps myth doesn't use thetvdb.com [anymore?] | 06:51 |

| skiwithpete | hi | 09:50 |
| skiwithpete | i've got a couple of questions before I make purchases | 09:51 |
| skiwithpete | is anyone awake in here to help talk to me about setting up mythbuntu on an Aspire Revo (Atom + Ion) | 09:52 |
| supermag | Hi, can i use mythbuntu as a NAS and a printer server ? | 09:55 |
| skiwithpete | hey supermag, the easy answer is yes | 09:56 |
| supermag | can it stream to units as a squeezebox ? | 09:57 |
| skiwithpete | truth is bro, I'm not an expert on mythbuntu or ubuntu really - I'm here to ask a question too, but from your question - you're just asking about adding additional packages to your 'buntu and adding other functionality, so yes you can do all that... but what the heck is squeezebox? | 09:59 |
| supermag | thats a logitech squeezebox | 09:59 |
| supermag | http://www.logitech.com/speakers-audio/wireless-music-systems/devices/5745 | 10:00 |
| Zinn | [www.logitech.com] | 10:00 |
| skiwithpete | ok, what you need to do is figure out what protocol you need to stream to that squeezebox with | 10:00 |
| skiwithpete | for example, I want to stream to my ipad - so I need an AirServer... | 10:01 |
| supermag | it uses squeezeserver | 10:02 |
| supermag | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squeezebox_Server | 10:04 |
| skiwithpete | after a quick google search you need to pop this line into terminal | 10:06 |
| skiwithpete | sudo apt-get install squeezeboxserver | 10:06 |
| skiwithpete | http://havetheknowhow.com/Install-the-software/Install-Squeezebox-server.html | 10:06 |
| Zinn | [havetheknowhow.com] Install "Squeezebox Server" on Ubuntu Server Lucid 10.04, Karmic 9.10, Jaunty 9.04 or Intrepid 8.10 | 10:06 |
| skiwithpete | sorry supermag you might need to install some repositories first | 10:07 |
| skiwithpete | have a look at that webpage for all the help you'll need | 10:08 |
| supermag | i havent built the htpc yet.. | 10:08 |
| skiwithpete | :) me neither | 10:08 |
| skiwithpete | there's loads of help on the ubuntu forums i was just in there looking for you | 10:09 |
| skiwithpete | you rockin ubuntu on the computer you're chatting to me on now? | 10:11 |
| supermag | yes | 10:11 |
| skiwithpete | because there's no reason you can't set that server up now on your current machine to test it | 10:12 |
| skiwithpete | myth is just a package, besides that its basically ubuntu, with myth installed | 10:13 |
| skiwithpete | (Oh and it runs XFCE instead of Gnome, but whatever) | 10:13 |
| supermag | i dont have any of logitechs devices yet | 10:13 |
| skiwithpete | just because I am massively prejudiced against logitechs... you might want to consider otherwise | 10:14 |
| skiwithpete | i say that, though the best mouse I ever owned was a logitech | 10:14 |
| skiwithpete | whatevs, I hope you make the entertainment setup of your dreams | 10:15 |
| Rebecca | Hello | 10:17 |
| skiwithpete | ola | 10:17 |
| Rebecca | Are there any known troublesome downsides to using the 64bit version for a backend system? like for instance, drivers not working and what not | 10:18 |
| Rebecca | hi skiwithpete | 10:18 |
| skiwithpete | sorry dude, I'm not really the best person to ask, as I'm new here too, and I came to ask a question myself - but.... I am rocking Ubuntu 10.04 64bit atm and it rocks... | 10:19 |
| Rebecca | skiwithpete: cool, out of curiosity, what are you using for capture? | 10:19 |
| skiwithpete | I have a Revo on order and was hoping to get some advice on a capture card myself - I had an Artec T3 and it sucked | 10:20 |
| Rebecca | ahhh | 10:21 |
| skiwithpete | I think hauppage is the one to get... and the more money you spend the more card you get, but I'm here to ask much the same | 10:21 |
| Rebecca | *nods* | 10:22 |
| skiwithpete | I want to do DVB HD capture, but I think i need to do USB because the revo doesn't have any slots... | 10:22 |
| Rebecca | ahhhh | 10:22 |
| skiwithpete | so umm,... Hauppage or something else? No one is here to answer | 10:22 |
| Rebecca | i got one of these: http://linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Leadtek_WinFast_DTV2000DS | 10:23 |
| Rebecca | still actually building my box so havn't tested it yet | 10:23 |
| skiwithpete | where are you? UK? AUS? | 10:23 |
| Zinn | [linuxtv.org] | 10:23 |
| Rebecca | au | 10:23 |
| skiwithpete | cool | 10:24 |
| skiwithpete | i just moved to NZ | 10:24 |
| Rebecca | ahhh | 10:24 |
| skiwithpete | artec t3 setup was in the UK and I spent two years tryin to get it to work properly and failed repeatedly, this time am buying quality | 10:25 |
| Rebecca | awesome. i hope this round is more fruitful for you :D | 10:26 |
| skiwithpete | have you used Mythbuntu before? | 10:26 |
| skiwithpete | cheers | 10:26 |
| Rebecca | not really. i have the frontend installed on a box, but with no backend it's kinda... pointless | 10:27 |
| skiwithpete | :) | 10:27 |
| skiwithpete | I want to know if I can run multiple desktops (so if I connect to my TV it has myth, but if I remote connect through VNC i can get a desktop) | 10:28 |
| skiwithpete | you wouldn't know that would you? | 10:28 |
| Rebecca | hmmmmm | 10:28 |
| Rebecca | what are you connecting from? | 10:28 |
| skiwithpete | Well I would just connect from another Ubuntu box and VNC or Remote Desktop Viewer whatever its called | 10:29 |
| Rebecca | if it's another linux box then perhaps consider doing the x server / x remote client method | 10:29 |
| skiwithpete | i don't know what that means, but sounds cool where can I check that out? | 10:29 |
| Rebecca | not sure, but im sure your googlefoo is as good as mine ;) | 10:30 |
| Rebecca | im sure what you describe can be done.. what's this for? remotely managing downloads? | 10:31 |
| skiwithpete | more like extending my Mythbox to also provide a powerdesktop to my Ipad | 10:32 |
| skiwithpete | I can connect to a Linux PC with the Ipad over VNC and then keep the computing power away from my testicules (forgive me if you are a lady) | 10:32 |
| skiwithpete | + you get flash for browsing etc | 10:33 |
| Rebecca | lol, fair enough. :) | 10:33 |
| skiwithpete | and I can manage files... | 10:33 |
| Rebecca | and yes, most Rebecca's, myself included, tend to be females | 10:33 |
| Rebecca | :P | 10:33 |
| skiwithpete | you know, normal stuff Jobsy doesn't want you to do | 10:33 |
| skiwithpete | I know a Shannon who is 100% guy. And a Melissa, who is really Paul Melissa, so I take nothing for granted :) | 10:34 |
| Rebecca | lol, ok | 10:34 |
| skiwithpete | anyways sister, I gots to split. Good luck with your box and I hope we cross paths again. | 10:36 |
| skiwithpete | Bye everybody else, who was just watching me and Rebecca chat... | 10:36 |
| Rebecca | seeya | 10:37 |
| Rebecca | This might be a silly question, but i have a device (Leadtek WinFast DTV2000DS) that requires V4L-DVB. Instructions mention building the V4L stuff from source myself. Is there any way around this? or I just have to bite the bullet and follow the instructions? | 12:02 |
| mrand | Rebecca: I'm looking around the interwebs right now - seems like you may be correct that that tuner isn't well supported yet. | 14:20 |
| mrand | support went into the kernel back in February 26, 2010, so it should be in 10.10 though | 14:20 |

| antihc3 | anyone install mthbuntu on a usb drive? I am wondering if i can do this then dd the install from usb to the hd partition | 14:22 |
| mrand | Rebecca: I think you're right... check out the last few pages of this thread: http://ubuntu-virginia.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=606487&page=20 | 14:23 |
| Zinn | [ubuntu-virginia.ubuntuforums.org] Af9015 - Page 20 - Ubuntu Forums | 14:23 |
| mrand | antihc3: someone else may know better, but I don't know why that wouldn't work. Of course, it would be a very small hd partion. | 14:24 |
| antihc3 | ahh very true did not think about that. Could just cp -R the /. I am just having a problem with kexec -e | 14:26 |
| antihc3 | guess i could also take the drive out and connect it to another machine and do the install | 14:28 |

| [FFT]ReK_ | I'm having trouble installing mythbuntu 10.10 | 21:44 |
| [FFT]ReK_ | The live cd won't boot, it gets to the point where it shows the mythbuntu logo and has the moving bar, then hangs there | 21:44 |
| [FFT]ReK_ | bar keeps moving, nothing happens | 21:44 |
| [FFT]ReK_ | tried noapic and acpi=off | 21:45 |
| [FFT]ReK_ | redownloaded and reburned the disk | 21:45 |
| [FFT]ReK_ | memtest is fine and I've added more ram anyway | 21:45 |
| [FFT]ReK_ | anyone know of any other possible causes? | 21:45 |
| [FFT]ReK_ | this machine has had mythbuntu 9.10 on it before (not atm) and it didnt have this problem | 21:46 |
| quinten | hi, just upgraded to mythtv .24, having audio problems | 21:48 |
| quinten | i followed advice to rescan for audio devices, and it seems to see the HDMI device correctly | 21:48 |
| quinten | playing audio back from the mythnetvision plugin/mythbrowser works correctly | 21:49 |
| quinten | but no sound from mythtv's internal player. any suggestions? | 21:49 |
| npaulin | I just updated my mythtv using autobuilds from 0.23.1 to 0.24.... i now get this error mythbackend: error while loading shared libraries: libmythtv-0.23.1.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory | 22:53 |
| npaulin | any insight? | 22:53 |
| npaulin | $ locate libmythtv-0.23.1.so.0 | 22:55 |
| npaulin | /usr/lib/libmythtv-0.23.1.so.0 | 22:55 |
| npaulin | /usr/lib/libmythtv-0.23.1.so.0.23 | 22:55 |
| npaulin | /usr/lib/libmythtv-0.23.1.so.0.23.1 | 22:55 |
| tgm4883 | npaulin, try apt-get remove libmythtv-0.23 | 23:10 |
| Wicked | or try ldconfig | 23:22 |
| miststlkr | does .23 still use thetvdb.com as the default metadata source? | 23:48 |
| Zinn | [thetvdb.com] Online TV Database - An open directory of television shows for HTPC software | 23:48 |
| tgm4883 | miststlkr, yes I believe so | 23:50 |
| miststlkr | tgm4883 - Thanks, looks like maybe the changes just took some time to propagate... maybe they review changes before committing them? Had updated a series last night, then tried to get the meta and it downloaded all blank data... just tried again and my changes have been committed. Sorry to bother. | 23:56 |
| npaulin | a seperate, but just as annoying problem i've just come across. I just did a 10.04 to 10.10 upgrade, and now my mythtv session will randomly logout. is there a timeout setting somewhere that would be causing this? I'm usually using the keyboard or mouse when this occurs. | 23:59 |
