pteague | anybody know if there's a way to make the mythtv frontend read-only? i.e. i may have to put my backend out in the living room where roommates can get to it, but i don't want them overwriting my recording schedule or deleting shows i've not yet watched, but i don't have any problems with them watching stuff i've already recorded | 02:30 |
---|---|---|
tgm4883 | pteague, nope, i've not heard of a way to do that | 03:14 |
Shadow__X | tgm4883: there is not a way to stop people from being able to delete things? | 04:04 |
tgm4883 | Shadow__X, I don't believe so | 04:39 |
Shadow__X | oh ok. Would be a neat idea although i am not sure how many people would get use out of it. I would much rather have users respect settings than to just go around deleting things | 05:17 |
pteague | i wonder about using a different mysql user for the client on that box &/or making a new group so the "guest" user could read (& use the client), but not write to the /var/lib/mythtv/*/ directories | 06:08 |
pteague | otherwise i'll probably string up a coax cable with my cat 5 tomorrow... up, over, & wrapped down around the top of the door frame between living room & hallway, down the wall, & under my door... can't have guests tripping over cabling | 06:10 |
tgm4883 | pteague, different user wouldn't do much, the deleting would all be done by the backend | 07:00 |
tgm4883 | different mysql user though might do something | 07:00 |

Newsome | Hey there experts...this is my first time doing this but I have a mythbuntu question. | 16:32 |
rhpot1991 | ask away | 16:32 |
Newsome | I have been happily using muthbuntu for about two years. I can't get cable and I want satellite for one thing...RFD-TV..I have an old dish and I found the channel and sat and it's a clear channel and DVB-S | 16:33 |
Newsome | Can I tune it in with Mythbuntu if I have the right card> I am in the US | 16:33 |
Newsome | I was thinking Hauppauge 2200 if I can find one | 16:34 |
Newsome | PS...I am currently watching OTA HD with a HVR-2250 | 16:35 |
rhpot1991 | Newsome: most sattelites require you to have a stb from the company to decrypt the stream | 16:35 |
rhpot1991 | so I'm kinda confused about what you are asking | 16:35 |
Newsome | it's not encrypted | 16:35 |
Newsome | I read about DVB-S support for Myth but it seems to be a European thing... | 16:35 |
Newsome | if the sat is unencrypted and it's DVB-S does it matter if it's US or EUR | 16:36 |
rhpot1991 | what sattelite provider? | 16:36 |
Newsome | no provider...FTA satellite is alive and well in the US | 16:36 |
Newsome | Free-to-Aur | 16:36 |
rhpot1991 | oh ok | 16:36 |
Newsome | air | 16:36 |
rhpot1991 | possible then | 16:36 |
rhpot1991 | might want to ask around in #mythtv-users | 16:36 |
rhpot1991 | see if you can find someone else already doing that | 16:36 |
rhpot1991 | or the mailing list | 16:37 |
rhpot1991 | !mailing% | newsome | 16:37 |
Zinn | newsome: The MythTV Users mailing list is located at: http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/ | 16:37 |
Newsome | gotcha...thanks...that was my next stop | 16:37 |
Newsome | go the link...thanks. | 16:37 |
rhpot1991 | sure, good luck | 16:37 |
