[01:51] 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? [01:53] suspect you may have an issue with the card needing firmware but neing detected as warm [01:53] try switching off the power to the machine during a reboot see if it makes a diff [01:53] actually [01:53] before you do - can you pastebin the output of dmesg please [01:54] qwebirc26086 [01:54] sorry...so you'd like an output of dmsg? [01:55] yes please [01:55] sure just a minute [01:55] one now with it working, one after a warm boot, ideally [01:55] ok [01:56] can you give the output of lsusb too please [01:56] will do [02:04] im rebooting now [02:12] ok mycosys [02:13] pastebin links?

LOL! [02:23] is a bit that is stating the title of the link you posted [02:23] *bot [02:28] got ya [02:34] stuffed as to why the system is taking 30sec in one case to initialise it, 60 in the other [02:34] also - did you remove and reinsert it in the first instance?\ [02:35] actually - in the instance it didnt work, it wasnt initialised til 83 seconds after boot [02:37] to get it working ..yes i had to remove and reinsert the device [02:37] however i left it inserted for the second capture === jasay__ is now known as jasay [02:41] try running 'sudo /etc/init.d/mythtv-backend restart' [02:41] just to check a hunch that the backend is coming up before the card is [02:42] ok...now should I test the device? [02:43] That seems to have worked. [02:44] I know when the frontend starts at bootup it comes up faster that the nic makes a connection to my network [02:46] so if thats the issue...what can I do to fix it? Script or something? [02:46] could add a delay to the init script but that is nasty [02:47] if you are usin 9.10 or later upstart should be able to wait for the card init to finish [02:47] im on 10.10 [02:47] rhpot1991 are you around? [02:48] qwebirc26086 i am still on 9.04 so dont know upstart, but it is one of the issues it was introduced to address [02:52] 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] [ubuntuforums.org] [SOLVED] How to delay launch of mythbackend?? (video device not found) - Ubuntu Forums [02:53] * tgm4883 pokes his head in [02:53] mycosys, quick summary? [02:53] he needed to replug his tuner to get myth to work [02:54] i suggested restarting the backend and it worked [02:54] tuner is taking 80sec to get up [02:54] mythtv version? [02:54] noticed post in http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1626997 that mentioned a repo fix that made mythbackend wait for udev [02:54] [ubuntuforums.org] [SOLVED] How to delay launch of mythbackend?? (video device not found) - Ubuntu Forums [02:54] yep [02:54] only know he is on 10.10 [02:55] qwebirc26086, run "dpkg -l mythtv-backend" [02:55] qwebirc26086 what mythtv version are you running? [02:55] make the terminal full screen when you run it [02:55] because I need the full version, not just 0.23.1 [02:57] o.23.1+fixes26437-0ubuntu1 [02:58] qwebirc26086, thanks, Can you also look in /etc/init mythtv-backend.conf and see if this line matches [02:58] /etc/init.d/mythtv-backend.conf [02:58] err [02:58] sec [02:59] /etc/init/mythtv-backend.conf [02:59] that file [02:59] see if you see this line [02:59] start on (local-filesystems and net-device-up IFACE=lo and started udev-finish) [02:59] and not just this [02:59] start on (local-filesystems and net-device-up IFACE=lo) [03:00] also, you are on the shipping 0.23.1 build, I'd update to the latest using the mythbuntu-repos package [03:00] would it be a good idea to add waiting for mysql to start too? [03:00] have had an issue before where mysql was coming up after the backend [03:00] yes I have the udev-finish [03:00] :S [03:01] I saw something about changing the Iface to eth0 since it comes up later that lo [03:01] think that would work? [03:01] and just running 'sudo /etc/init.d/mythtv-backend restart' without replugging fixes the issue? [03:02] yes I did not replug and was watching tv fine [03:03] ok, so just restarting the backend makes it work fine? [03:03] hmm [03:03] shouldn't need to change the Iface, although we may need to adjust exactly what we are waiting on [03:04] I'm surprised waiting for udev-finish isn't enough [03:04] me too [03:04] can I tell it to wait for the specific device? [03:05] http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com/NZ3i5g5y is his demsg, both working and then not [03:05] [mythbuntu.pastebin.com] Working..... [ 0.000000] Initializing cgroup - Qwebirc26086 [03:05] sorry qwebirc26086 i am assuming you are a he - i apologise if this is incorrect [03:06] you assumed correctly...but thanks for the political correctness! LOL! [03:07] could you pastebin /var/log/mythtv/mythbackend.log please [03:07] yw lol [03:07] will do [03:08] ok - tech is here to replace some parts on this so bbs [03:09] qwebirc26086, does this fail to start correctly on every reboot? [03:10] yes [03:10] ok [03:10] lets see the backend logs [03:10] it might be the mysql issue [03:10] is so, we can test it [03:10] I finally read somewhere to unplug the device reboot and the plug it back in and that worked [03:10] ok [03:14] http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com/pmxN7X36 [03:14] [mythbuntu.pastebin.com] 2011-02-27 00:01:19.648 UPnpMedia: BuildMediaMap - Qwebirc26086 [03:18] hmm, I see a single can't connect to db error, but it connects right after that [03:18] still looks like the tuner isn't up in time for the backend [03:18] superm1, ^^ [03:25] if i update using the mythbuntu-repos will that affect your troubleshooting? [03:30] qwebirc26086, no, it's something we recommend anyway [03:30] 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 [03:33] I am reading about a sleep script in mythtv-backend.conf...think that would fix my issue? [03:33] qwebirc26086, it would fix the issue, but it's more of a hack than an actual fix [03:34] not that it would be bad for you, but it's not something we should put in the packaging [03:35] got ya..... [03:37] looking at my logs and times how long of a sleep would it take? [03:40] IDK, thats something you probably need to test [03:40] maybe start with 10 seconds, if it works go to 5 [03:41] ok I'll try it. [03:55] Thanks guys! I just added a sleep 10 to my mythtv-backend.conf. I appreciate all the assistance. [04:29] tgm4883 - he got it all figuted? [04:29] *figured [05:04] we can't have it wait for mysql [05:04] that breaks the non mysql case [05:05] maybe a secondary job can fix this though, will have to think abou tit [06:42] superm1, yea but somethings odd about it [06:42] like why waiting for udev wasn't working [14:58] theres a udev finish thing that it can wait for instead [14:58] superm1, yea, thats what it's currently set at [14:59] upstart would have to be booted in debug mode to find out what's really happening [14:59] it's a kernel command line option that puts it in debug mode [14:59] ok [19:42] I am attempting to put mythbuntu onto my pc using a Hauppauge nova-s-plus card but I can't find channels === Azelphur is now known as zz_Azelphur === zz_Azelphur is now known as Azelphur === Azelphur is now known as zz_Azelphur === zz_Azelphur is now known as Azelphur === peterpops_ is now known as peterpops
