[00:02] Is this still to vague ? [00:15] I don't really know the answer sorry [01:42] 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in development and I must acknowledge the risk by typing YouMustBeThisTallToRide to continue - I assume this screen is out of date, given 0.24 is released? [01:43] Also confused about second tickbox, 'Activate Mythbuntu-testing PPA' - Assume I ignore that, given I don't want to be that cutting edge [04:59] eek, for some reason my guide data hasn't been updated... i'm thinking it's because the update script hasn't run... [05:00] crap, -3 days worth of guide data :( [05:01] no wonder i've not had any new recordings [06:35] Hello, all. thtvdb.com is still the default source for TV metadata, right? [06:35] [thtvdb.com] thtvdb.com [06:35] the* [06:51] 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] [thetvdb.com] Online TV Database - An open directory of television shows for HTPC software [09:50] hi [09:51] i've got a couple of questions before I make purchases [09:52] is anyone awake in here to help talk to me about setting up mythbuntu on an Aspire Revo (Atom + Ion) [09:55] Hi, can i use mythbuntu as a NAS and a printer server ? [09:56] hey supermag, the easy answer is yes [09:57] can it stream to units as a squeezebox ? [09:59] 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] thats a logitech squeezebox [10:00] http://www.logitech.com/speakers-audio/wireless-music-systems/devices/5745 [10:00] [www.logitech.com] [10:00] ok, what you need to do is figure out what protocol you need to stream to that squeezebox with [10:01] for example, I want to stream to my ipad - so I need an AirServer... [10:02] it uses squeezeserver [10:04] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squeezebox_Server [10:06] after a quick google search you need to pop this line into terminal [10:06] sudo apt-get install squeezeboxserver [10:06] http://havetheknowhow.com/Install-the-software/Install-Squeezebox-server.html [10:06] [havetheknowhow.com] Install "Squeezebox Server" on Ubuntu Server Lucid 10.04, Karmic 9.10, Jaunty 9.04 or Intrepid 8.10 [10:07] sorry supermag you might need to install some repositories first [10:08] have a look at that webpage for all the help you'll need [10:08] i havent built the htpc yet.. [10:08] :) me neither [10:09] there's loads of help on the ubuntu forums i was just in there looking for you [10:11] you rockin ubuntu on the computer you're chatting to me on now? [10:11] yes [10:12] because there's no reason you can't set that server up now on your current machine to test it [10:13] myth is just a package, besides that its basically ubuntu, with myth installed [10:13] (Oh and it runs XFCE instead of Gnome, but whatever) [10:13] i dont have any of logitechs devices yet [10:14] just because I am massively prejudiced against logitechs... you might want to consider otherwise [10:14] i say that, though the best mouse I ever owned was a logitech [10:15] whatevs, I hope you make the entertainment setup of your dreams [10:17] Hello [10:17] ola [10:18] 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] hi skiwithpete [10:19] 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] skiwithpete: cool, out of curiosity, what are you using for capture? [10:20] 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 [10:21] ahhh [10:21] 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 [10:22] *nods* [10:22] 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] ahhhh [10:22] so umm,... Hauppage or something else? No one is here to answer [10:23] i got one of these: http://linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Leadtek_WinFast_DTV2000DS [10:23] still actually building my box so havn't tested it yet [10:23] where are you? UK? AUS? [10:23] [linuxtv.org] [10:23] au [10:24] cool [10:24] i just moved to NZ [10:24] ahhh [10:25] 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 [10:26] awesome. i hope this round is more fruitful for you :D [10:26] have you used Mythbuntu before? [10:26] cheers [10:27] not really. i have the frontend installed on a box, but with no backend it's kinda... pointless [10:27] :) [10:28] 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] you wouldn't know that would you? [10:28] hmmmmm [10:28] what are you connecting from? [10:29] Well I would just connect from another Ubuntu box and VNC or Remote Desktop Viewer whatever its called [10:29] if it's another linux box then perhaps consider doing the x server / x remote client method [10:29] i don't know what that means, but sounds cool where can I check that out? [10:30] not sure, but im sure your googlefoo is as good as mine ;) [10:31] im sure what you describe can be done.. what's this for? remotely managing downloads? [10:32] more like extending my Mythbox to also provide a powerdesktop to my Ipad [10:32] 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) [10:33] + you get flash for browsing etc [10:33] lol, fair enough. :) [10:33] and I can manage files... [10:33] and yes, most Rebecca's, myself included, tend to be females [10:33] :P [10:33] you know, normal stuff Jobsy doesn't want you to do [10:34] I know a Shannon who is 100% guy. And a Melissa, who is really Paul Melissa, so I take nothing for granted :) [10:34] lol, ok [10:36] anyways sister, I gots to split. Good luck with your box and I hope we cross paths again. [10:36] Bye everybody else, who was just watching me and Rebecca chat... [10:37] seeya [12:02] 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? [14:20] 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] support went into the kernel back in February 26, 2010, so it should be in 10.10 though [14:20] http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/git-commits-head/2010/2/27/24094 [14:20] [kerneltrap.org] V4L/DVB: af9015: support for Leadtek WinFast DTV2000DS | KernelTrap [14:22] 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 [14:23] 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] [ubuntu-virginia.ubuntuforums.org] Af9015 - Page 20 - Ubuntu Forums [14:24] 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. [14:26] ahh very true did not think about that. Could just cp -R the /. I am just having a problem with kexec -e [14:28] guess i could also take the drive out and connect it to another machine and do the install === nico__ is now known as camelreef [18:08] good evening from Scotland! [18:12] got a weird thing with recording playback [18:13] it starts OK, but after a while it drops frames like mad [18:13] 0.24 nightly build - 10.10 64bit - VDPAU [18:13] logs here: http://youplala.net/~will/htpc/video.too.slow.txt [18:13] [youplala.net] [18:13] Hi, Does Mythbuntu have a NAS function, a printer server, and Squeezebox Server? [21:11] bye [21:44] <[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 [21:45] <[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? [21:46] <[FFT]ReK_> this machine has had mythbuntu 9.10 on it before (not atm) and it didnt have this problem [21:48] hi, just upgraded to mythtv .24, having audio problems [21:48] i followed advice to rescan for audio devices, and it seems to see the HDMI device correctly [21:49] playing audio back from the mythnetvision plugin/mythbrowser works correctly [21:49] but no sound from mythtv's internal player. any suggestions? [22:53] 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] any insight? [22:55] $ locate libmythtv-0.23.1.so.0 [22:55] /usr/lib/libmythtv-0.23.1.so.0 [22:55] /usr/lib/libmythtv-0.23.1.so.0.23 [22:55] /usr/lib/libmythtv-0.23.1.so.0.23.1 [23:10] npaulin, try apt-get remove libmythtv-0.23 [23:22] or try ldconfig [23:48] does .23 still use thetvdb.com as the default metadata source? [23:48] [thetvdb.com] Online TV Database - An open directory of television shows for HTPC software [23:50] miststlkr, yes I believe so [23:56] 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. [23:59] 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.
