| _antant_ | cheers matey | 00:28 |
| _antant_ | another question. Where can I put ln -s source destination so it auto links on startup? | 00:29 |
| dewman | =) | 00:29 |
| _antant_ | Ah, there. Ok | 00:30 |
| _antant_ | Hold on. I can't find =) | 00:31 |
| _antant_ | or :/ | 00:31 |
| _antant_ | or even :0 | 00:31 |
| _antant_ | Where have they gone?! | 00:31 |
| _antant_ | Any place I can put it other than there? Tried fstab. That ain't right | 00:33 |
| tgm4883 | _antant_, you should only need to do a ln -s once | 00:35 |
| _antant_ | really?? Oh, excellent! | 00:35 |
| tgm4883 | yep | 00:35 |
| tgm4883 | the source mount point still needs to exist thoug | 00:36 |
| _antant_ | ok, how do I un ln? | 00:36 |
| tgm4883 | ie. if it is a network mount point | 00:36 |
| tgm4883 | rm the link | 00:36 |
| _antant_ | nope. External hdd | 00:36 |
| _antant_ | nice one, ta | 00:38 |
| _antant_ | Now to get my bloody TV card working. | 00:38 |
| _antant_ | It's weird, I installed once and it worked ok. Now reinstalled and nothing | 00:39 |
| _antant_ | Just won't recognise it at all | 00:39 |
| === symptom is now known as epoch | ||
| _antant_ | Well. It won't come up in the tuners in the backend setup | 00:39 |
| _antant_ | Anyone else got a terratec cinergy 2400i? | 00:40 |
| _antant_ | I've followed exactly the same instructions as last time | 00:41 |
| _antant_ | Now I'm getting make errors | 00:41 |
| _antant_ | Any idea why it would work the first time and then not the second, anyone? | 00:42 |
| _antant_ | tgm4883 / dewman: Don't have any clue do you? | 00:50 |
| _antant_ | apparently I was wrong. I didn't do what I did last time. Just found the page I ended up at last time | 00:57 |
| _antant_ | never realised how important it is to add (year) to your movie filenames | 01:10 |
| _antant_ | Is there a way to add nautilus to the Applications/Accessories menu from the command line? | 01:30 |
| knp2 | Hello all! I just installed mythbuntu. I install all the updates. But when I boot the box, it asks me the 'default' keyring password before connecting to my wireless network. Is there a way to connect to my wireless network without requiring user input? (this box will be keyboard/mouseless) | 02:10 |
| knp2 | disregard the question... I got it!!! | 02:45 |
| knp2 | the solution was to edit the wireless connecting and check "available to all users" | 02:46 |
| _antant_ | anyone got samba sharing working? | 06:51 |

| _antant | agreed | 15:15 |
| _antant | I'm about to set up front ends on my 2 flatmates' machines. TV for everyone! | 15:16 |
| perlmonkey | :D | 15:17 |
| perlmonkey | mythtv is leading the way in tv licence evasion | 15:17 |
| _antant | lol | 15:18 |
| _antant | I've never had one | 15:18 |
| _antant | well, not since i left home | 15:19 |
| _antant | I'm 27 now | 15:19 |
| perlmonkey | wow | 15:20 |
| perlmonkey | theres hope for me then | 15:20 |
| _antant | occasionally have a dude come round | 15:20 |
| _antant | Just say it's a shared flat, nobody has a tv | 15:21 |
| perlmonkey | what do you say to him | 15:21 |
| perlmonkey | oh | 15:21 |
| perlmonkey | does he say can i check inside | 15:21 |
| _antant | I have a 46" monster sat on my wall | 15:21 |

| perlmonkey | :D | 15:21 |
| _antant | I have to recommend 3d porn | 15:21 |
| _antant | Anyone got the VFD on an Antec Fusion working? | 15:57 |
| rhpot1991 | once upon a time I did | 16:04 |
| rhpot1991 | _antant: old VFD or the newer LCD one? | 16:04 |
| _antant | old | 16:07 |
| _antant | I've tried the LCDproc run through | 16:07 |
| _antant | right this second I've got 'LCDproc Server' scrolling back and forth on the upper line and Cli: 0 Scr: 0 on the lower | 16:08 |
| _antant | Can't get it to do anything but hat | 16:08 |
| rhpot1991 | http://www.baablogic.net/drupal/node/6 | 16:08 |
| _antant | that | 16:08 |
| Zinn | [www.baablogic.net] Karmic Antec Fusion VFD | www.baablogic.net | 16:08 |
| rhpot1991 | may be slightly out of date, but should get you in the right direction | 16:08 |
| _antant | on it like white on rice | 16:10 |
| * rhpot1991 's rice is brown | 16:10 | |
| _antant | on it like brown on rice | 16:12 |
| _antant | or I would be if I had LCDd in init.d | 16:12 |
| _antant | command not found | 16:12 |
| rhpot1991 | did you install the right pieces? | 16:13 |
| _antant | well I followed the LCDproc instruction | 16:13 |
| _antant | s | 16:14 |
| _antant | and if I run LCDd from home it runs | 16:14 |
| _antant | what have I done? | 16:15 |
| _antant | rhpot1991? Any idea? | 16:19 |
| rhpot1991 | _antant: where did you install lcdproc from? | 16:20 |
| _antant | got the 0.5.4 drivers from the website | 16:21 |
| rhpot1991 | you should be installing things from apt if they exist | 16:22 |
| rhpot1991 | sudo apt-get install lcdproc | 16:22 |
| rhpot1991 | or use aptitude, or software center, or whatever else you are comfortable with | 16:23 |
| rhpot1991 | you should be using the ubuntu packages and not source though unless you have a reason | 16:23 |
| _antant | lol | 16:23 |
| _antant | I didn't realise they were in the repositories | 16:23 |
| rhpot1991 | thats why you don't have an init script | 16:25 |
| _antant | I would imaing so, yeah | 16:25 |
| _antant | also why I would imagine it | 16:26 |
| _antant | if I try to sudo echo "Hey" > /dev/lcd0 I get permission denied | 16:26 |
| rhpot1991 | dunno that will work | 16:27 |
| _antant | on that link you sent me am I supposed to have the '' around the options? | 16:28 |
| _antant | Cos I've not put them in and dmesg shows 'lirc_imon: Unknown parameter 'display_type'' | 16:29 |
| _antant | well I got rid of that and didn't get any errors | 16:29 |
| _antant | but I've still got that damn scrolling message | 16:30 |
| Zinn | _antant: Please watch your language. | 16:30 |
| _antant | Zinn, I hate you with a passion that could burn for a thousand years | 16:30 |
| Zinn | Hi _antant, something I can help you with today? I am a bot, use !help to see what I can do. | 16:30 |
| _antant | lol | 16:30 |
| _antant | rhpot1991, right I'm trying to use lcdproc to send text to it. Eg lcdproc C to get cpu info | 16:35 |
| _antant | All that happens is the 'Cli: 0' goes to 'Cli: 1' briefly. | 16:35 |
| _antant | It said 'Thank you for using LCDproc and linux' when I rebooted! | 16:37 |
| _antant | Now back to flashing heart and scrolling pish | 16:37 |
| _antant | YEEEHAAA BEETCHES! | 17:03 |

| rhpot1991 | _antant: thats normal to have the heartbeat, now you need to enable lcd support in mythtv | 17:08 |
| _antant | Got it working! | 17:14 |
| _antant | It's actually really easy | 17:14 |
| _antant | "Welcome to your /n home theatre" | 17:17 |
| _antant | Score! | 17:17 |
| _antant | Now I've just gotta get the volume know working | 17:18 |
| _antant | Oh | 17:18 |
| _antant | It does! | 17:18 |
| _antant | linux rocks | 17:18 |
| chiluk | congrats _antant.. welcome to the club. Isn't it nice to be able to fix things without reformatting? | 17:29 |
| _antant | damn straight it is | 17:31 |

| _antant | I hate you | 17:32 |
| chiluk | hah. | 17:32 |
| _antant | Any cool ideas for things to do with my newly working VFD? | 17:32 |
| chiluk | I don't even know what is possible | 17:33 |
| _antant | me either | 17:33 |
| chiluk | displaying the name and progress bar of the currently watched show? | 17:33 |
| chiluk | I know the name should work | 17:33 |
| chiluk | but the progress bar would be cool. | 17:33 |

| dewman | _antant, I wouldnt mess with rhpot1991 | 17:35 |
| _antant | Progress bar's not a bad idea at all! | 17:35 |
| rhpot1991 | _antant: he is a bot, and I'm not gonna type all that out its easier to tell him to say it to you | 17:35 |
| rhpot1991 | anyways, language here should be family safe, please try to follow the rules | 17:35 |
| _antant | well that d word that I've used a few times is hardly swearing | 17:35 |
| rhpot1991 | _antant: the point being you have no idea the age of people in here | 17:36 |
| rhpot1991 | tgm4883 might be 3 years old, we don't want him hearing that | 17:36 |
| _antant | Coochie coo! | 17:37 |
| tgm4883 | whaaaaaaa! | 17:37 |
| _antant | lol | 17:37 |
| tgm4883 | me hungry | 17:37 |
| _antant | not me. | 17:37 |
| dewman | I just had nachos | 17:37 |
| rhpot1991 | see now you upset baby tgm4883 :) | 17:37 |
| _antant | I've eaten 2 easter eggs | 17:37 |
| _antant | They were buy 1 get 2 free | 17:37 |
| tgm4883 | I just had a conf call with people that don't listen :( | 17:38 |
| rhpot1991 | isn't it a bit early for easter? | 17:38 |
| rhpot1991 | tgm4883: welcome to life | 17:38 |
| perlmonkey | i got my mythtv setup working BEAUTIFULLY | 17:38 |
| _antant | That's why they were buy 1 get 2 free | 17:38 |
| dewman | if they dont listen, then why did you keep talking? you should have hung up.... =) | 17:38 |
| perlmonkey | they changed a few things since i last used it which had me confused | 17:38 |
| _antant | well don perl | 17:38 |
| rhpot1991 | _antant: last year's models | 17:38 |
| perlmonkey | thanks | 17:38 |
| _antant | haha! Thankfully not. | 17:38 |
| _antant | Creme Egg ones | 17:38 |
| _antant | so yes, I have in fact eaten 4 creme eggs and 2 easter eggs | 17:39 |
| _antant | And I feel rather sick | 17:39 |
| _antant | Good thing I gave one to a flatmate | 17:40 |
| _antant | ok, I need cool things to do with my new case lcd | 17:40 |
| _antant | Newly functioning at least | 17:40 |
| _antant | Thanks to help from rhpot :D | 17:41 |
| dewman | _antant, lcdproc | 17:42 |
| perlmonkey | look at my eggs... | 17:42 |
| perlmonkey | http://gallery.amorphix.net/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=3657&g2_serialNumber=1 | 17:42 |
| _antant | I'd rather not if it's all the same | 17:42 |
| perlmonkey | they are pretty | 17:42 |
| _antant | I don't know whether I dare | 17:42 |
| perlmonkey | Japanese rice eggs! | 17:42 |
| _antant | It's not gonna be a blue waffles affair is it? | 17:42 |
| perlmonkey | nah | 17:42 |
| _antant | yeah, dewman, finally got it going | 17:43 |
| _antant | and all functioning with xbmc | 17:43 |
| _antant | Just can't think what else I'd like it to do | 17:43 |
| perlmonkey | we could link our mythtv's together so we can watch tv without a licence? | 17:44 |
| perlmonkey | a national network? | 17:44 |
| _antant | Anyone listened to the new Chase & Status album? | 17:44 |
| rhpot1991 | perlmonkey: no way you'd stream content over the interweb | 17:44 |
| perlmonkey | :( | 17:44 |
| rhpot1991 | _antant: the most useful thing for the LCD is to display whats currently recording | 17:44 |
| _antant | Good plan | 17:44 |
| rhpot1991 | other than that its mostly useless | 17:45 |
| _antant | Although I can't imagine I'll have much recording on it | 17:45 |
| perlmonkey | i got a question maybe you guys can help with... | 17:45 |
| perlmonkey | is it possible to date and time stamp video in mythtv? | 17:45 |
| perlmonkey | in realtime on the recording | 17:45 |
| rhpot1991 | perlmonkey: videos meaning recordings? | 17:45 |
| perlmonkey | yes | 17:45 |
| _antant | for cctv? | 17:45 |
| perlmonkey | ya | 17:45 |
| rhpot1991 | perlmonkey: http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&cd=1&ved=0CBQQFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.mythtv.org%2Fwiki%2FMythrename.pl&ei=RZqDTebQLMTUgQfvu5TBCA&usg=AFQjCNENLuiPAZtfoBztz11VyHSTuMqAxQ | 17:45 |
| Zinn | [www.google.com] Mythrename.pl - MythTV | 17:45 |
| rhpot1991 | stupid google link | 17:45 |
| perlmonkey | ooo | 17:45 |
| _antant | I think he means hardcoding a timestamp onto the recording | 17:46 |
| rhpot1991 | actually this one: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Mythlink.pl | 17:46 |
| Zinn | [www.mythtv.org] Mythlink.pl - MythTV Official Wiki | 17:46 |
| perlmonkey | yes actually into the video picture | 17:47 |
| perlmonkey | i guess that is beyond mythtv capability? | 17:47 |
| _antant | Well I would imagine it would depent on how well your pc can encode video | 17:48 |
| perlmonkey | my PC is pretty powerful I think | 17:49 |
| perlmonkey | it has 6gb of ram and 2.7gb cpu | 17:49 |
| dewman | perlmonkey, might ask in #mythtv-users, the devs hang out in there. | 17:49 |
| rhpot1991 | prob a user job with ffmpeg can do it for you | 17:51 |
| perlmonkey | thanks | 17:51 |
| rhpot1991 | you are going to be doing it yourself though | 17:51 |
| perlmonkey | right | 17:51 |
| _antant | That's what I thought | 17:51 |
| _antant | have a read up on ffmpeg | 17:51 |
| perlmonkey | yes if theres a will theres a way i will read up | 17:52 |
| _antant | mencoder can hardcode subs, so there may be something to look at there | 17:53 |
| perlmonkey | aha thanks | 17:58 |
| rhpot1991 | old but this should get you on the right path | 18:03 |

| Zinn | [www.bernzilla.com] Overlaying an Image on a Video Using FFmpeg on Ubuntu, Bernie Zimmermann | 18:03 |
| perlmonkey | many thanks rhpot | 18:03 |
| perlmonkey | I was gonna say I could do the image in perl and then overlay the image | 18:04 |
| perlmonkey | so thats perfect | 18:04 |
| Seeker` | hmm, mythtv seems to be upscaling content (TV always reports it is receiveing 1080p), how can I stop it doing this? | 20:36 |
| rhpot1991 | Seeker`: adjust the size in xorg | 20:38 |
| Seeker` | rhpot1991: any hints? I want it to play back 1080p stuff @ 1080p, but then switch to DVD resolution for DVDs | 20:40 |
| rhpot1991 | Seeker`: thats gonna be hard, there is a section in mythtv for playback size that may help | 20:45 |
| Seeker` | rhpot1991: whereabouts? | 20:51 |
| Patrickdk | heh? it's pretty easy | 20:51 |
| Patrickdk | I personally hate the mode flips though | 20:52 |
| Seeker` | Patrickdk: how do you do it then? | 20:54 |
| Patrickdk | settings, playback, just like he said | 20:55 |
| Seeker` | which option am I looking for in the "playback" menu? | 20:57 |
| rhpot1991 | Seeker`: I'm not by my box now so you'll have to look around, but there is an area where you can specify the playback size | 20:58 |
| Seeker` | hmm, it looks like you have to set up specific input/output resolutions | 21:07 |
| Seeker` | in the "Separate video modes for GUI and TV playback" | 21:07 |
| Seeker` | there isn't a "just play native" option | 21:07 |
| rhpot1991 | so match the inputer and output? | 21:09 |
| Seeker` | rhpot1991: for every resolution ever? | 21:12 |
| rhpot1991 | Seeker`: you really only have 3 | 21:12 |
| rhpot1991 | 480, 720, 1080 | 21:12 |
| Patrickdk | why every? | 21:12 |
| Patrickdk | I thought it had a < and > options | 21:12 |
| Patrickdk | <1000 use 720 | 21:13 |
| Patrickdk | or was it in order, first match, top down, that is big enough | 21:13 |
| rhpot1991 | this may be helpful | 21:13 |
| rhpot1991 | http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/User_Manual:JudderFree | 21:13 |
| Zinn | [www.mythtv.org] User Manual:JudderFree - MythTV | 21:13 |
| Patrickdk | rhpot1991, that is no fun | 21:13 |
| Patrickdk | keep the manual out of it :) | 21:13 |
| Seeker` | Patrickdk: nope, just "choose specific resolutions", the > < thing is choosing which decoder you use | 21:13 |
| rhpot1991 | free upscaling sounds like the best solution to me then :) | 21:14 |
| Seeker` | rhpot1991: I have that built in to my TV :P | 21:15 |
| Seeker` | and it is a decent TV, so the upscaling actually works | 21:15 |
| Seeker` | also, the specific resolution thing doesn't seem to work for recordings, only live tv | 21:16 |
| Seeker` | or videos | 21:16 |
| Patrickdk | should work for recordings | 21:16 |
| Patrickdk | but not videos | 21:16 |
| Seeker` | TV reckons it is getting 1080p when I play back stuff ripped from DVDs | 21:16 |
| Patrickdk | atleast not videos not using myth | 21:16 |
| Seeker` | Patrickdk: not working for recordings | 21:17 |
| Seeker` | I'd love to be able to use the in-TV deinterlacer too, but it seems that myth won't output interlaced stuff either | 21:18 |
| Patrickdk | it really can't | 21:19 |
| Patrickdk | video card can't send interlaced video normally | 21:19 |
| Seeker` | it shouldn't be this hard to get video output that hasn't been processed | 21:35 |
| Seeker` | someone really needs to mmake some PVR with myth's recording interface, but with decent input/output options | 21:35 |
