[00:11] can anyone tell me how to remove the recordings from the database, and how to put em back? [00:17] mycosys: http://www.mythbuntu.org/upgrading points the way. [00:17] [www.mythbuntu.org] Upgrading | Mythbuntu [00:18] does it point the way to cloning to a second (near identical) machine without the recordings to do it? [00:19] between that page, and the the mythtv wiki page that it references, I think so. [00:19] If not, the pages need to be improved. [00:35] now i have mythbuntu 10.10 installed but now when trying to use componenet output its overtly blue but the colors are right in bios [00:53] what video driver are you using? [00:56] nvidia [00:56] 260 [00:59] should be able to run nvidia-settings and adjust that easily [01:00] guys - might it be a good idea to put somewhere on the mythbuntu site a recommendation to opt for lts releases? [01:00] mycosys, why? [01:00] the same reason even the devs recommend treating myth as an appliance [01:01] for most people it should be set up and leave it [01:01] I don't say treat it as an appliance [01:01] In fact, I say just the opposite [01:01] recommending LTS != appliance [01:01] I recommend LTS for desktop usage as well [01:02] lts means that if you do need to change something 1yr or more down the track there will be updates and support [01:03] ie in my case add a torrentn client [01:03] which would contridict an appliance [01:03] which is don't touch it after install [01:03] lot of people do firmware updates on electronic appliances after that sort of time [01:04] mycosys, um, no they don't [01:05] k [01:05] some people maybe [01:05] but they are in the minority [01:06] technical people might, but most others won't [01:06] mycosys, in any case, if you can convince a dev to update the site to say LTS recommended, go for it [01:53] tgm4883: any experience getting component out from a nvidia card? its a geforce 6150 and the tv is a sony kp-51w510 which has a dvi port but can not for the life of me get working [06:04] shadow__X still here ? any success with component out? [06:06] yeah i tried windows 7 and was having the issue still [06:06] low and behold the connection was loose :( [11:36] hi there, is there a list of packages that mythbuntu comes with on top of ubuntu? [12:31] hi everybody [12:33] i am working on a mythbuntu pc, can anybody recommend a technisat sat card working with mythbuntu 10.10 ? [15:00] dabblego, not really, you could look at the dependencies of mythbuntu-desktop [15:00] dabblego, are you trying to convert your desktop into a mythbuntu system? [15:05] i dont want mythbuntu to start the frontend immediately each time the computer boots up how do i stop this [15:05] also i dont know if anyone has had this problem my wireless network icon in the top right has seemingly disappeared [17:32] hey [17:33] Mythbuntu 10.10 Only in intel format at the moment? [17:33] no you can get amd64 i did [17:37] what is the easiest way with mythbuntu xfce interface to get icons on the desktop i am trying to drag from menu but that simply isnt working [17:37] do i have to create from scratch?? [18:15] hello, i need some help about hardware compatibility, i want to set up a mythbuntu media pc and would like to know which hd tv sat card i can use preferable technisat. [18:15] qwebirc1208: you are better asking about that on the mythtv mailing list [18:16] !mailing% [18:16] The MythTV Users mailing list is located at: http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/ [18:16] its hard to get specific hardware support in here unless it is a very common card [18:17] i thought maybe somebody has some experience cuz of using and setting up [18:18] qwebirc1208: where are you located? [18:18] Leipzig germany [18:19] I'd try the mailing list or forums [18:19] !forums [18:19] The Mythbuntu forums are located at http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=301. If you aren't getting a timely response here, there are lots of very active individuals there that may be able to help. [18:21] been searching already for quite some time most answers and hints are about mythbuntu 9.10 i would like to use 10.10 and i read there have been kernel changes [18:23] i will go for the forums then again thank you ;-) [18:24] qwebirc1208: try posting a new topic asking for a card recomendation [18:24] unfortunately most of us in here are US based so we don't know about your cards over there [18:25] most of them seem alike like technisat skymaster card for example [18:27] here in the US for satelite you would use a hd-pvr and captuer the component output [18:29] ok, well thanks for your help. i will search my way through then === Azelphur is now known as zz_Azelphur === zz_Azelphur is now known as Azelphur [22:16] [freenode.net] freenode: frequently-asked questions === kwmonroe is now known as 50UAAA4JH === _Metoer is now known as Metoer === rhpot199` is now known as rhpot1991 === Seeker` is now known as 84XAAABJE [23:02] does anyone know why i would not be able to do a channel scan while in the mythtv-setup interface?? i have a hauppauge bt878 capture card with input coming to the TV coax port, and xawtv verifies that i can view NTSC channels [23:03] i am also getting a strange error: "connection DBManager0 is still in use, all queries will cease to work." when i exit out of mythtv-setup. not sure if this is related [23:04] jbehmer1, what are you using for a source for epg data? [23:04] gregL, what is epg data? im quite new to this actually [23:04] listings [23:05] what he said [23:06] that would be in video sources correct? i havent been able to set that up, because when i add one it doesnt show up in the list [23:07] Yes, we use schedule direct to get the epg data.. [23:08] It's $20 a year..Pretty cheap.. [23:09] there is a few week trial still I think too [23:09] so you can try it out first [23:09] ah, i see. is there any free alternative i can use. im just trying this out on my desktop to decide if i should buy a new HTPC [23:09] oh i see [23:09] They have a trila period.. [23:09] trial even [23:09] that said, you should be able to scan without it, but its much easier to just pull your listing data from there [23:10] s/listing/channel/ [23:10] okay, let me set one up and ill see if that works [23:11] jbehmer1, When you do,don't scan..Use fetch from source.. [23:12] okay, will do [23:13] jbehmer1, I see you are in the nycap area..I am also.. [23:14] oh cool, yep I go to school up here [23:14] No I live here.. [23:14] Saratoga [23:14] jbehmer - just a note - dont judge performance based on using that card - it will need MANY times the cpu power of a cheap digital tuner to use [23:15] *jbehmer1 [23:15] haha, I found it in an old computer somebody was getting rid of so I don't have very high expectations :-p [23:16] an old computer like a 1ghz machine can often handle 3 digital tuners and SD playback [23:16] was doing 3 digital tuners and HD playback on a 1.8GHz sempron and GT210 [23:18] oh wow thats not too bad, i have an amd dual core in this 2.8 ghz i think, so hopefully it will do fine despite the card [23:19] will be bogged down [23:20] prolly handle 2 or 3 tuners max, might handle playback [23:20] from experience, analog tuners are pita [23:20] for a digital tuner all the machine does is take data from the tuner and write it to the disk, zero processing [23:21] can get analog cards that do the encoding too - so they are good, but analog will be switched off soon [23:23] anyway - all my point was is it will go much better with a better tuner, they are cheap [23:23] right, yeah. i was surprised last night when i hooked an antenna in and was picking up a couple channels. they must have been analog ones right? i didnt even know this card was analog but did some research on it to find out it was a hauppauge bt878 [23:23] brooktree/conexant878 [23:23] i thought they got rid of analog in the US last year or year before [23:23] lol [23:23] i did too [23:24] we still have it here, but not for long [23:24] haha yeah [23:25] okay the activation email finally came through for schedules direct. let me try this [23:26] $40-50 or so will get a decent tuner normally [23:28] wow, you know i was looking on newegg 2 days ago and the cheapest i could find with hardware encoding was $109 [23:28] hauppauge ones that is [23:31] so, i put in my username and pw, now just click finish?? theres a checkbox for EIT scan and a button for retrieve lineups, but nothing for fetch from source on this window === croppa_ is now known as croppa [23:50] i figured out how to add the video source, but when i try to set the input source, clicking "fetch channels from listings source" doesnt do anything. anyone know why?? im just using my keyboard and arrow keys, no IR
