| hot_wheelz | how do u setup automatically skip commercials? | 03:11 |
|---|---|---|
| hot_wheelz | running Mythbuntu 10.10 | 03:11 |
| tgm4883 | hot_wheelz, it's a frontend setting | 03:12 |
| tgm4883 | well | 03:12 |
| tgm4883 | actually it's set in a couple places | 03:12 |
| tgm4883 | you tell the backend whether you want it to automatically flag commercials | 03:12 |
| tgm4883 | are you programs already being automatically flagged? | 03:12 |
| hot_wheelz | not sure...don't think so...i thought i selected automatically skip commercials though | 03:14 |
| hot_wheelz | how can i check | 03:14 |
| tgm4883 | in watch recordings, there is an icon for comm flagged programs | 03:15 |
| hot_wheelz | hang on | 03:16 |
| hot_wheelz | tgm4883 a litle flag right? | 03:17 |
| tgm4883 | hot_wheelz, it depends on the theme | 03:17 |
| tgm4883 | which theme are you using | 03:17 |
| hot_wheelz | mythbuntu | 03:18 |
| tgm4883 | yea it's a little grey flag then | 03:18 |
| tgm4883 | iirc, or a little cylinder if it's currently commflagging | 03:18 |
| hot_wheelz | nope don't see it | 03:18 |
| tgm4883 | sec | 03:18 |
| hot_wheelz | ok | 03:19 |
| tgm4883 | so on your backend, in mythtv-setup, in General | 03:19 |
| tgm4883 | 8th screen | 03:20 |
| tgm4883 | "Allow commercial-detection jobs" | 03:20 |
| tgm4883 | make sure that is checked | 03:20 |
| hot_wheelz | ok then | 03:20 |
| tgm4883 | that will tell the backend to automatically run the commflag job on the show | 03:21 |
| hot_wheelz | thats all | 03:21 |
| tgm4883 | one more place | 03:21 |
| tgm4883 | you have to tell the frontend to automatically skip commercials | 03:21 |
| tgm4883 | settings > setup > tv playback > playback | 03:23 |
| tgm4883 | 8th screen | 03:23 |
| tgm4883 | thats in the frontend | 03:23 |
| tgm4883 | set "Automatically skip commercials" to whichever setting you want | 03:23 |
| hot_wheelz | ok brb | 03:24 |
| hot_wheelz | ok done so how do i run it on somthing that was alraedy recorded select from watch recording or somthing | 03:31 |
| tgm4883 | err, from memory, you hit M on the recording in watch recordings and there should be an option to runn comm flagging job | 03:32 |
| hot_wheelz | ok | 03:32 |
| hot_wheelz | then just let it run | 03:33 |
| squidly | I'm running mythbuntu 10.10 with fixes. I keep having xscreensaver pop on when I'm watching tv. how can I fix that? I started when I updated from myth 0.23 to myth 0.24 | 03:33 |
| tgm4883 | hot_wheelz, yep | 03:34 |
| tgm4883 | it will take a while depending on your backend speed | 03:34 |
| tgm4883 | squidly, are you sure it's xscreensaver? | 03:35 |
| tgm4883 | and not either gnome-screensaver or dpms? | 03:35 |
| hot_wheelz | tgm4883 thanks mate | 03:36 |
| tgm4883 | hot_wheelz, welcome | 03:36 |
| squidly | tgm4883: yea I removed gnome-screensaver | 03:36 |
| tgm4883 | squidly, I haven't seen that issue in a long time | 03:36 |
| squidly | hmm it could be something wierd the | 03:36 |
| squidly | then* | 03:37 |
| tgm4883 | I don't recall what the issue/fix was | 03:37 |
| hot_wheelz | once done the cylinder will change to a flag? | 03:37 |
| tgm4883 | IIRC, I turned it off completely | 03:37 |
| tgm4883 | hot_wheelz, yep | 03:37 |
| hot_wheelz | ok | 03:37 |
| squidly | I also am seeing a lot more memory use as well. The box has 1G installed and 256 is taken by the video card (ugg) and now it seems to be swapping quit a bit | 03:37 |
| tgm4883 | squidly, memory usage is usually theme dependent | 03:38 |
| tgm4883 | some themes take more than others | 03:38 |
| Patrickdk | 256 taken by the video card? | 03:38 |
| tgm4883 | what theme are you using? | 03:38 |
| squidly | mythbuntu theme | 03:38 |
| tgm4883 | yea thats a higher one, what else are you doing on the box? | 03:38 |
| squidly | nfs mounts | 03:39 |
| squidly | a deamon I wrote to control my tv. | 03:39 |
| tgm4883 | anything else that would use ram though? | 03:39 |
| squidly | nope | 03:39 |

| squidly | yea.. makes me wonder if something is broken or mis-configured | 03:44 |
| Patrickdk | looks like libvdpau | 03:45 |
| tgm4883 | thats from my frontend only zotac | 03:45 |
| tgm4883 | which is using about 960MB | 03:45 |
| Patrickdk | 00007f472d825000 1001436K rw--- [ anon ] | 03:46 |
| squidly | hmm I wonder.. | 03:46 |
| Patrickdk | 1 gig allocated :( | 03:46 |
| squidly | yea.. | 03:46 |
| squidly | its a built in video card. I've had issues with anything HD pixilating on it.. | 03:46 |
| tgm4883 | what video card? | 03:47 |
| Patrickdk | well, I doubt you have enough streams on your gpu | 03:47 |
| squidly | the video card is a Nvidia 8200 | 03:47 |
| Patrickdk | oh, that isn't really going work | 03:47 |
| tgm4883 | does that even support vdpau? | 03:47 |
| squidly | yea it does | 03:47 |
| squidly | http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131318 that is the mobo | 03:48 |
| Zinn | [www.newegg.com] Newegg.com - ASUS M3N78-VM AM2+/AM2 NVIDIA GeForce 8200 HDMI Micro ATX AMD Motherboard | 03:48 |
| tgm4883 | oh onboard | 03:48 |
| squidly | yea.. This is part of my cute little frontend.. | 03:48 |
| squidly | I got that because I wanted the HDMI out | 03:49 |
| tgm4883 | I wonder what type of memory usage the frontend has right after starting it | 03:49 |
| squidly | tgm4883: minimal | 03:50 |
| Patrickdk | mythtv says you need atleast a 8400 | 03:50 |
| Patrickdk | and not a memory sharing 8400 | 03:50 |
| tgm4883 | squidly, what deinterlacer are you using? | 03:50 |
| Patrickdk | so only 8400's with their own ram | 03:50 |
| squidly | on the frontend Vdapu Slim profile | 03:51 |
| tgm4883 | Patrickdk, wiki says 8200 onboard | 03:51 |
| Patrickdk | http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/VDPAU | 03:51 |
| Zinn | [www.mythtv.org] VDPAU - MythTV | 03:51 |
| Patrickdk | hmm, I don't see it | 03:51 |
| Patrickdk | oh way down there | 03:51 |
| tgm4883 | it's in the second section | 03:51 |
| tgm4883 | Feat B section | 03:51 |
| Patrickdk | and it's a B chip :( | 03:51 |
| tgm4883 | yea it's iffy | 03:51 |
| tgm4883 | (1) GPUs with this note may not support H.264 streams with the following widths: 49, 54, 59, 64, 113, 118, 123, 128 macroblocks (769-784, 849-864, 929-944, 1009-1024, 1793-1808, 1873-1888, 1953-1968, 2033-2048 pixels). | 03:51 |
| squidly | it worked for the most part with most things. | 03:52 |
| squidly | just a couple of HD movies pixilated on 0.23 | 03:52 |
| tgm4883 | squidly, what deinterlacer? | 03:52 |
| * Patrickdk doesn't bother much with vdpau, mainly cause of the lack of subtitle support in myth | 03:53 | |
| mycosys | squidly use as fast a deinterlacing as possible, or none | 03:53 |
| squidly | tgm4883: let me get that really quick | 03:53 |
| mycosys | 8200 is plenty to decode, but wont handle the high end de-interlacers | 03:54 |
| mycosys | is the same chip as the second gen 8400 | 03:54 |
| squidly | mycosys: okies. yea it was using advanced, with the secondary temporta. | 03:55 |
| Patrickdk | yay? | 03:56 |
| Patrickdk | yay :) | 03:56 |
| tgm4883 | according to the wiki, thats not going to work | 03:56 |
| mycosys | i woudl go with none | 03:56 |
| tgm4883 | you need to go down to at least bob2x | 03:56 |
| tgm4883 | i'd test with none though | 03:56 |
| squidly | yea I will try that out. | 03:57 |
| squidly | test with none.. see how that works. | 03:57 |
| mycosys | are you iin a 50Hz or 60Hz country? | 03:57 |
| squidly | now where is my spare keykoad | 03:57 |
| squidly | mycosys: ?? 60 or 60hz? | 03:57 |
| squidly | 50 or 60hz? how can I check that | 03:57 |
| mycosys | pal ir ntsc | 03:57 |
| mycosys | *or | 03:57 |
| mycosys | actually - simpler to ask what country | 03:58 |
| squidly | US | 03:58 |
| mycosys | bugger | 03:58 |
| squidly | so IIRC PAL | 03:58 |
| mycosys | NTSC | 03:58 |
| tgm4883 | lol | 03:58 |
| tgm4883 | US is NTSC | 03:58 |
| mycosys | you kinda need postprocessing for movies | 03:58 |
| mycosys | see if it bothers you | 03:58 |
| squidly | oh lol. I pull of a DirecTV system, I dont need HD for life tv.. | 03:59 |
| squidly | I will try the slim profile then | 03:59 |
| mycosys | nah | 03:59 |
| mycosys | edit the profile ur using | 03:59 |
| * tgm4883 wonders what this live tv thing is :) | 03:59 | |
| squidly | lol tgm4883 | 03:59 |
| squidly | oh wow.. um.. no nvidia module loaded! | 03:59 |
| squidly | that would be a problesm! | 03:59 |
| mycosys | it would indeed | 04:00 |
| mycosys | run hardware drivers from the settings menu | 04:00 |
| mycosys | you need the proprietary nvidia drivers | 04:00 |
| mycosys | settings menu of mythbuntu that is | 04:00 |
| squidly | yea I know. I'm installing them via cli right now (faster for me) | 04:00 |
| mycosys | remenbered having to add repos | 04:01 |
| mycosys | might have been another linux | 04:01 |
| squidly | almost all my video hardware is nvidia | 04:01 |
| mycosys | mine too | 04:01 |
| mycosys | in fact all of it - only other is my fiancee's lappy | 04:01 |
| mycosys | mythserver is running a blob dled direct from nv because the distro didnt suppport my gt210 at the time | 04:02 |
| squidly | ahh.. | 04:02 |
| squidly | yea.. my wifes lappy runs the intel video chipset | 04:03 |
| mycosys | ew | 04:03 |
| squidly | she only uses it for surfing and IM | 04:03 |
| mycosys | fiancee has an ati, but she doesnt do lin | 04:03 |

| Zinn | Feature Freeze for 11.04 is on Feb 12, 2011 | 04:03 |
| tgm4883 | Zinn you liar | 04:04 |
| Zinn | Hi tgm4883, something I can help you with today? I am a bot, use !help to see what I can do. | 04:04 |
| squidly | as soon as I can get my wife's windows docs backed up I will be fixineg her box to linux | 04:04 |
| mycosys | why? | 04:04 |
| mycosys | my desky and lappy are doze primarily | 04:04 |
| squidly | I'm 98% linux | 04:05 |
| * tgm4883 runs 100% linux in his house | 04:05 | |
| mycosys | there is bugger all you cant do with just 1 lin box in the house | 04:05 |
| squidly | teaching my kids linux as well. It's free | 04:05 |
| mycosys | linux is that far superioir you only need one | 04:05 |
| squidly | mycosys: lol | 04:05 |
| mycosys | its tru | 04:05 |
| squidly | yea I know. I run linux at work and as home. I only use doze for games | 04:06 |
| squidly | ahh there we go now it's got nvidia in there | 04:07 |
| squidly | let me reset the deinterlacing and see how that works | 04:07 |
| squidly | also got rid of the old libvdapu verisons | 04:07 |
| mycosys | i need pro/engineer (they dumped lin) and acrobat pro and mathematica - i need bloody win boxes | 04:08 |
| mycosys | irony is my amd 5200+ is as quick at doin most stuff under doze as my 1366 system is under w7 | 04:09 |
| mycosys | if i need lin on the go the lappy dual boots | 04:09 |
| === rhpot1991 is now known as rhpot1992 | ||
| === rhpot1992 is now known as rhpot1991 | ||
| mycosys | also need to compile to doze for uni (going from technician to engineer) | 04:11 |
| squidly | back | 04:11 |
| mycosys | getting anywhere? | 04:11 |
| squidly | yep | 04:12 |
| squidly | changed to bob and fallback of none | 04:12 |
| mycosys | btw - recommend deluge - is lovely on my mythserver lol | 04:12 |
| squidly | that fixed the pixilation for me | 04:12 |
| mycosys | sweet! | 04:12 |
| squidly | yep.. LOTR would pixilate a lot for me | 04:12 |
| squidly | now it does not | 04:12 |
| mycosys | :) | 04:12 |
| squidly | deluge the torrent client? | 04:12 |
| squidly | I use rtorrent | 04:13 |
| mycosys | yup - deluge has a separate daemon and client | 04:13 |
| mycosys | and a web if | 04:13 |
| mycosys | client can run on a remote machine | 04:13 |
| squidly | nice. I like rtorrent and a webcute rutorrent | 04:13 |
| squidly | it something I was able to teach my wife how to use :D | 04:13 |
| squidly | and it runs on my server so no issues there.. | 04:13 |
| mycosys | i love having a remote gtk client | 04:13 |
| squidly | lol | 04:14 |
| squidly | still eating up 61% ram.. | 04:15 |
| tgm4883 | the frontend or whole system? | 04:15 |
| squidly | frontend | 04:16 |
| mycosys | while decoding? | 04:16 |
| squidly | nope | 04:16 |
| squidly | right now it's idle | 04:16 |
| mycosys | :O | 04:16 |
| mycosys | which version? | 04:17 |
| squidly | 2:0.24.0+fixes.20110219.dca8767-0ubuntu0mythbuntu2 0 | 04:18 |
| squidly | still libvdpau | 04:19 |
| squidly | I wonder if it's a memory leak in it | 04:21 |
| squidly | because sitting ilde here it just eats up more | 04:21 |
| hot_wheelz | tgm4883 | 04:51 |
| tgm4883 | yep | 04:51 |
| hot_wheelz | the show still has some commericals can u train it? | 04:52 |
| mrand | hot_wheelz: nope. It does the best it can. | 04:53 |
| mrand | If you want, you can manually cut them out with the cutlist editor | 04:53 |
| mrand | It doesn't take long, but it is a manual process | 04:54 |
| hot_wheelz | mrand where is it located? | 04:55 |
| mrand | hot_wheelz: I don't remember the keyboard short cut - you'll have to look it up. z maybe? | 04:55 |
| hot_wheelz | mrand so goto watch recordings and hit z | 04:57 |
| mrand | If z is the right key. Or maybe it is 'e'. You'll have to look at the keyboard short cuts | 04:59 |
| hot_wheelz | it is z | 05:07 |
| hot_wheelz | mrand so what screen do i run z from then | 05:09 |
| hot_wheelz | tgm4883 do u know | 05:17 |
| tgm4883 | hot_wheelz, I think thats when you are watching the recording | 05:19 |
| tgm4883 | pause and hit Z | 05:19 |
| mycosys | hot_wheels - i recommend not using commercial auto skip | 05:20 |
| mycosys | just set a button for skip on ur remote | 05:20 |
| mycosys | and set it to show on the osd when a commercial comes | 05:20 |
| mycosys | then if it shows a commercial that is in a sane place and a sane length - skip it | 05:21 |
| * tgm4883 uses autoskip, it works ~95% of the time | 05:22 | |
| mrand | mycosys: I agree. It does an amazing job, but it still makes enough mistakes that most people would prefer to hit a button. Of course, you could take the attitude that since it gets it right the majority of the time, you should let it autoskip, and when it doesn't, skip back. | 05:22 |
| hot_wheelz | so how do i get the cutlist to appaer from what menu | 05:24 |
| hot_wheelz | when do i press z? | 05:26 |
| hot_wheelz | anyone | 05:49 |
