qwebirc26086 | I am using mythbuntu 10.10 and I have a hauppauge 850 usb tuner. I must remove my tuner card before a reboot or the card does not function. Thus I must exit out of the frontend and enter into the backend config and rescan channels everytime I loose power. Is there a fix? | 01:51 |
---|---|---|
mycosys | suspect you may have an issue with the card needing firmware but neing detected as warm | 01:53 |
mycosys | try switching off the power to the machine during a reboot see if it makes a diff | 01:53 |
mycosys | actually | 01:53 |
mycosys | before you do - can you pastebin the output of dmesg please | 01:53 |
mycosys | qwebirc26086 | 01:54 |
qwebirc26086 | sorry...so you'd like an output of dmsg? | 01:54 |
mycosys | yes please | 01:55 |
qwebirc26086 | sure just a minute | 01:55 |
mycosys | one now with it working, one after a warm boot, ideally | 01:55 |
qwebirc26086 | ok | 01:55 |
mycosys | can you give the output of lsusb too please | 01:56 |
qwebirc26086 | will do | 01:56 |
qwebirc26086 | im rebooting now | 02:04 |
qwebirc26086 | ok mycosys | 02:12 |
mycosys | pastebin links? | 02:13 |

qwebirc26086 | was that a question, observation, or solution??? LOL! | 02:20 |
mycosys | is a bit that is stating the title of the link you posted | 02:23 |
mycosys | *bot | 02:23 |
qwebirc26086 | got ya | 02:28 |
mycosys | stuffed as to why the system is taking 30sec in one case to initialise it, 60 in the other | 02:34 |
mycosys | also - did you remove and reinsert it in the first instance?\ | 02:34 |
mycosys | actually - in the instance it didnt work, it wasnt initialised til 83 seconds after boot | 02:35 |
qwebirc26086 | to get it working ..yes i had to remove and reinsert the device | 02:37 |
qwebirc26086 | however i left it inserted for the second capture | 02:37 |

mycosys | try running 'sudo /etc/init.d/mythtv-backend restart' | 02:41 |
mycosys | just to check a hunch that the backend is coming up before the card is | 02:41 |
qwebirc26086 | ok...now should I test the device? | 02:42 |
qwebirc26086 | That seems to have worked. | 02:43 |
qwebirc26086 | I know when the frontend starts at bootup it comes up faster that the nic makes a connection to my network | 02:44 |
qwebirc26086 | so if thats the issue...what can I do to fix it? Script or something? | 02:46 |
mycosys | could add a delay to the init script but that is nasty | 02:46 |
mycosys | if you are usin 9.10 or later upstart should be able to wait for the card init to finish | 02:47 |
qwebirc26086 | im on 10.10 | 02:47 |
mycosys | rhpot1991 are you around? | 02:47 |
mycosys | qwebirc26086 i am still on 9.04 so dont know upstart, but it is one of the issues it was introduced to address | 02:48 |
mycosys | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1626997 there is a solution in the mytbuntu repos that makes mythbackend wait for udev to finish before starting | 02:52 |

* tgm4883 pokes his head in | 02:53 | |
tgm4883 | mycosys, quick summary? | 02:53 |
mycosys | he needed to replug his tuner to get myth to work | 02:53 |
mycosys | i suggested restarting the backend and it worked | 02:54 |
mycosys | tuner is taking 80sec to get up | 02:54 |
tgm4883 | mythtv version? | 02:54 |
mycosys | noticed post in http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1626997 that mentioned a repo fix that made mythbackend wait for udev | 02:54 |
Zinn | [ubuntuforums.org] [SOLVED] How to delay launch of mythbackend?? (video device not found) - Ubuntu Forums | 02:54 |
tgm4883 | yep | 02:54 |
mycosys | only know he is on 10.10 | 02:54 |
tgm4883 | qwebirc26086, run "dpkg -l mythtv-backend" | 02:55 |
mycosys | qwebirc26086 what mythtv version are you running? | 02:55 |
tgm4883 | make the terminal full screen when you run it | 02:55 |
tgm4883 | because I need the full version, not just 0.23.1 | 02:55 |
qwebirc26086 | o.23.1+fixes26437-0ubuntu1 | 02:57 |
tgm4883 | qwebirc26086, thanks, Can you also look in /etc/init mythtv-backend.conf and see if this line matches | 02:58 |
tgm4883 | /etc/init.d/mythtv-backend.conf | 02:58 |
tgm4883 | err | 02:58 |
tgm4883 | sec | 02:58 |
tgm4883 | /etc/init/mythtv-backend.conf | 02:59 |
tgm4883 | that file | 02:59 |
tgm4883 | see if you see this line | 02:59 |
tgm4883 | start on (local-filesystems and net-device-up IFACE=lo and started udev-finish) | 02:59 |
tgm4883 | and not just this | 02:59 |
tgm4883 | start on (local-filesystems and net-device-up IFACE=lo) | 02:59 |
tgm4883 | also, you are on the shipping 0.23.1 build, I'd update to the latest using the mythbuntu-repos package | 03:00 |
mycosys | would it be a good idea to add waiting for mysql to start too? | 03:00 |
mycosys | have had an issue before where mysql was coming up after the backend | 03:00 |
qwebirc26086 | yes I have the udev-finish | 03:00 |
mycosys | :S | 03:00 |
qwebirc26086 | I saw something about changing the Iface to eth0 since it comes up later that lo | 03:01 |
qwebirc26086 | think that would work? | 03:01 |
mycosys | and just running 'sudo /etc/init.d/mythtv-backend restart' without replugging fixes the issue? | 03:01 |
qwebirc26086 | yes I did not replug and was watching tv fine | 03:02 |
tgm4883 | ok, so just restarting the backend makes it work fine? | 03:03 |
tgm4883 | hmm | 03:03 |
tgm4883 | shouldn't need to change the Iface, although we may need to adjust exactly what we are waiting on | 03:03 |
tgm4883 | I'm surprised waiting for udev-finish isn't enough | 03:04 |
mycosys | me too | 03:04 |
qwebirc26086 | can I tell it to wait for the specific device? | 03:04 |
mycosys | http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com/NZ3i5g5y is his demsg, both working and then not | 03:05 |
Zinn | [mythbuntu.pastebin.com] Working..... [ 0.000000] Initializing cgroup - Qwebirc26086 | 03:05 |
mycosys | sorry qwebirc26086 i am assuming you are a he - i apologise if this is incorrect | 03:05 |
qwebirc26086 | you assumed correctly...but thanks for the political correctness! LOL! | 03:06 |
mycosys | could you pastebin /var/log/mythtv/mythbackend.log please | 03:07 |
mycosys | yw lol | 03:07 |
qwebirc26086 | will do | 03:07 |
mycosys | ok - tech is here to replace some parts on this so bbs | 03:08 |
tgm4883 | qwebirc26086, does this fail to start correctly on every reboot? | 03:09 |
qwebirc26086 | yes | 03:10 |
tgm4883 | ok | 03:10 |
tgm4883 | lets see the backend logs | 03:10 |
tgm4883 | it might be the mysql issue | 03:10 |
tgm4883 | is so, we can test it | 03:10 |
qwebirc26086 | I finally read somewhere to unplug the device reboot and the plug it back in and that worked | 03:10 |
qwebirc26086 | ok | 03:10 |
qwebirc26086 | http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com/pmxN7X36 | 03:14 |
Zinn | [mythbuntu.pastebin.com] 2011-02-27 00:01:19.648 UPnpMedia: BuildMediaMap - Qwebirc26086 | 03:14 |
tgm4883 | hmm, I see a single can't connect to db error, but it connects right after that | 03:18 |
tgm4883 | still looks like the tuner isn't up in time for the backend | 03:18 |
tgm4883 | superm1, ^^ | 03:18 |
qwebirc26086 | if i update using the mythbuntu-repos will that affect your troubleshooting? | 03:25 |
tgm4883 | qwebirc26086, no, it's something we recommend anyway | 03:30 |
tgm4883 | we'll probably need superm1 to weigh in on this though. Having it wait for mysql may fix it, but since that doesn't appear to be the issue it would be a side effect of the change | 03:30 |
qwebirc26086 | I am reading about a sleep script in mythtv-backend.conf...think that would fix my issue? | 03:33 |
tgm4883 | qwebirc26086, it would fix the issue, but it's more of a hack than an actual fix | 03:33 |
tgm4883 | not that it would be bad for you, but it's not something we should put in the packaging | 03:34 |
qwebirc26086 | got ya..... | 03:35 |
qwebirc26086 | looking at my logs and times how long of a sleep would it take? | 03:37 |
tgm4883 | IDK, thats something you probably need to test | 03:40 |
tgm4883 | maybe start with 10 seconds, if it works go to 5 | 03:40 |
qwebirc26086 | ok I'll try it. | 03:41 |
qwebirc26086 | Thanks guys! I just added a sleep 10 to my mythtv-backend.conf. I appreciate all the assistance. | 03:55 |
mycosys | tgm4883 - he got it all figuted? | 04:29 |
mycosys | *figured | 04:29 |
superm1 | we can't have it wait for mysql | 05:04 |
superm1 | that breaks the non mysql case | 05:04 |
superm1 | maybe a secondary job can fix this though, will have to think abou tit | 05:05 |
tgm4883 | superm1, yea but somethings odd about it | 06:42 |
tgm4883 | like why waiting for udev wasn't working | 06:42 |
superm1 | theres a udev finish thing that it can wait for instead | 14:58 |
tgm4883 | superm1, yea, thats what it's currently set at | 14:58 |
superm1 | upstart would have to be booted in debug mode to find out what's really happening | 14:59 |
superm1 | it's a kernel command line option that puts it in debug mode | 14:59 |
tgm4883 | ok | 14:59 |
qwebirc65487 | I am attempting to put mythbuntu onto my pc using a Hauppauge nova-s-plus card but I can't find channels | 19:42 |
