[12:19] <Powderking> Hi all! MythTV get's confused with the 2 units on my PVR 500, so I'm trying to write an udev rule. Here's the output of udevadm: http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com/J7XjwZad. I thought I could use "ID_V4L_PRODUCT=WinTV PVR 500 (unit #1)" for my rule: http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com/JCQRbVTw. But after "sudo service udev reload; sudo udevadm trigger" or a reboot nothing has changed. How should my rule look like?

[15:59] <qwebirc8083> Hi! I've of an myth combo frontend / backend in my living room and a mythbuntu frontend in my bedroom - the tuner is a 2 tuner HD Homerun
[15:59] <qwebirc8083> last night, one tuner was recording and I tried to view a different channel in the bed, short answer it wouldn't let me
[16:01] <qwebirc8083> I've used it to record 3 show and watch another live at the same time (via multiplex) on the living room combo unit, so I'm not sure why the bedroom unit wasn't rolling over to the second tuner
[16:01] <qwebirc8083> any thoughts on where to look?
[16:07] <qwebirc8083> huh - nvm - it's seems to be working correctly now - I just retried it
[18:34] <dewman> does the mythtv user have a password?
[18:35] <dewman> reason i ask is if I need to edit a file that is owned by the mythtv user and i use sudo gedit jamu.conf will it mess the permissions up if i use sudo rather then switch to the mythtv user?
[18:46] <nordle> Using 0.24 under mythbuntu 10.10 and I'm trying to configure remote like I had it in 0.21   But I can't get lirc to do stuff, in the past Id run irw to check what the remote was outputting.  But I cant do that.  After googling I tried mode2, but sudo mode2 --device /dev/input/event6 mode2:   "this device driver does not support the LIRC ioctl interface"    I've spent hours tring to get 10 commands sorted in remote...help appreciated.
[19:08] <nordle> dewman: I don't know.  But you could sudo su between root and user mythtv and change the password / set the password.  I have no idea, but this might be a bad thing to do, just saying its a possibility.
[19:11] <dewman> nordle, thanks. I noticed that using sudo does not seem to mess up the permissions.....Or so at least I cant see that it does
[20:22] <KjetilK> I'm seeing occasional backend failures with this error:
[20:22] <KjetilK> 14281.757540] mythbackend[3413] general protection ip:7f7c30e4b27a sp:7fff9bda8f10 error:0 in libc-2.12.1.so[7f7c30dd1000+17a000]
[20:24] <KjetilK> I remember there were an upgrade of linux-libc-dev a few days ago
[20:24] <KjetilK> and it seems from dpkg.log that libc-bin has also been upgraded
[20:24] <KjetilK> could that have something to do with it?
[20:45] <KjetilK> I have 2.12.1-0ubuntu10 of the latter from maverick-updates
[21:03] <superm1> dewman, it doesn't have a defined password.  it's supposed to be a daemon user
[21:03] <superm1> i would recommend just editing the file as root using sudo instead
[21:04] <superm1> KjetilK, are you on autobuilds?  If not ,can you please turn them on, enable apport and install mythtv-dbg?
[21:04] <superm1> then the next crash should be caught by apport and allow you to file a bug
[21:04] <superm1> as mentioned in http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Debugging#Debugging_with_Ubuntu_packages
[21:04] <Zinn> [www.mythtv.org] Debugging - MythTV
[21:08] <KjetilK> superm1, I think I am on autobuild, but come to thing of it, I haven't seen it happen lately
[21:08] <KjetilK> I'll check and install -dbg
[21:09] <KjetilK> I also downgraded libc-bin now
[21:09] <superm1> yeah it doesn't hurt to have -dbg installed.  just an extra 50mb to download in updates, but makes bug fixing immensely easier since you won't have to reproduce it again
[21:09]  * KjetilK nods
[21:09] <KjetilK> no performance issues?
[21:10] <superm1> no, the symbols are only loaded by apport when a crash occurs
[21:10] <KjetilK> ok, good
[21:11] <KjetilK> yeah, I definitly had autobuild
[21:11] <superm1> apport is generally disabled by default when an ubuntu release actually releases for one reason or another so that's why we don't force the debug symbols on people unless they actually want to help get the bugs filed and fixed
[21:11] <KjetilK> yup
[21:12] <KjetilK> another thing I just did was to insert another tuner card into my box, the libc upgrade happened at the same time that I did this
[21:13] <superm1> so it can be a good combination of variables then here really
[21:13] <KjetilK> yeah...
[21:17] <KjetilK> BTW, do I have to do a channel scan for the second, identical DVB tuner card to allow simultaneous recordings?
[21:18] <superm1> no, just assign it the same lineup
[21:20] <KjetilK> hmmm, my feeble attempt to do that apparently failed, since my wife got her livetv watching overridden by mythbusters tonight :-)
[21:21] <KjetilK> I just assigned both cards to the same video source in the input connections...
[21:34] <patdk-lap> two things going on there
[21:34] <patdk-lap> both cards need the same lineup assigned, so mythtv knows it can record from both
[21:34] <patdk-lap> then you probably want to turn on the option, have livetv use idle card, or whatever it's called
[21:35] <KjetilK> oh, ok, my current setup should be able to record from different channels on different frequencies
[21:35] <patdk-lap> yep
[21:35] <KjetilK> but to have LiveTV, I need to set another option?
[21:35] <patdk-lap> the issue is, the recordings are scheduled per card
[21:35] <patdk-lap> there is an option, to have livetv attempt to pick a card without recordings scheduled on it
[21:36] <KjetilK> ah, ok!
[21:36] <patdk-lap> otherwise livetv will pick recorder 0
[21:36] <patdk-lap> and recordings start at 0 also
[21:36] <KjetilK> right
[21:36] <KjetilK> you don't remember where this option can be set?
[21:36] <patdk-lap> avoid conflict with scheduler (is the checkbox)
[21:36] <patdk-lap> in the frontend settings
[21:36] <KjetilK> ok,
[21:37]  * KjetilK looks
[21:38] <patdk-lap> if all your turners use the same channel lineup, that is good enough :)
[21:38] <patdk-lap> if they dont, it gets annoying
[21:38] <patdk-lap> cause your livetv always goes to the card with the crappy lineup (cause you never record crap)
[21:39] <KjetilK> yup, it workds, thanks a lot!
[21:39] <KjetilK> yeah, I have the same lineup
[21:39] <KjetilK> these are two identical Terratec Cinergi C HD cards
[21:40] <KjetilK> the only difference between them is that the cable goes through the loop out to the other
[21:40] <KjetilK> so one of them may have a slightly lower signal
[22:23] <nordle> Hi there.  Just moved from Slackware 12.1 and myth 0.21 to Mythbuntu 10.10 and mythtv 0.24.  My iMon Pad remote was not working properly, do I thought I'd just replace the /home/mythtvuser/.lirc/mythtv with my old lircrc file.  It does not seemed to have made 1 change.  Volume and Exit still work but nothing else does.  Any suggestions would be great as I'm a little stuck now.
[23:04] <nordle> I'm going to try this, even though my imon pad is 5 years old and not "new" http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Soundgraph_iMON_Antec_Veris_Mythbuntu_10.10
[23:04] <dewman> superm1, thanks. Thats what I did...

[23:14] <dewman> is anyone familier with the giantbomb.py? metadata for games?
[23:18] <dewman> its in usr/share/mythtv/metadata/Games
[23:18] <dewman> I was just wondering what needs to be done in order to use it. I looked at the settings for mythgame, but I dont see anyplace for a lookup
[23:21] <dewman> never mind....I just found that if you select the game and hit M and then retrieve details it will grab the details of the game. =)
[23:31] <dewman> so what do people use to grab fan art for tv shows? some of the shows have the art work while some dont. IE family guy has artwork while NCIS does not.
