dewman | if anyone wants to know, I updated the direct download link for the hdhr firmware here....https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HDHomeRun | 02:27 |

Zinn | [help.ubuntu.com] HDHomeRun - Community Ubuntu Documentation | 02:27 |
dewman | Err...with the new firmware that sd has published. | 02:27 |
dewman | was thinking that page needs some new screen prints as well.....They are pretty dated.. | 02:30 |
mrand | dewman: thanks! feel free to update. | 03:18 |
dewman | mrand, your welcome. Never done any wiki edits before so I am not sure how to drop the images in there. Figured I would start really really small.. =) | 03:23 |
kvarley | Can anybody recommend a good place to buy tv cards online from the UK? | 13:47 |
mycoDA | what matters is the card, not where u get it | 13:47 |
mycoDA | should be able to save some $ and get a good USB unit | 13:48 |
mycoDA | I am hearing awesome things about the Sony Play TV | 13:48 |
mycoDA | people here in australia even importing them from the UK | 13:48 |
kvarley | mycoDA: Can you use that without a ps3 or other sony device? | 13:49 |
mycoDA | skinflint.co.uk | 13:49 |
kvarley | i.e are they compatable with mythbuntu? | 13:50 |
mycoDA | yeah - is a reference dibicom design | 13:50 |
mycoDA | needs no setting up | 13:50 |
kvarley | mycoDA: :) I'm gonna have to check this out :) thanks for the recommendation | 13:50 |
mycoDA | is nice that it is a dual tuner in a sheilded box with a built in splitter | 13:50 |
mycoDA | np mate | 13:50 |
mycoDA | using the asus U3100 mini myself but they are off the market, PlayTV is a similar unit (or similar to 2 of em) | 13:51 |
kvarley | This is a nooby question but what's DVB-T mean? Terrestrial ? | 13:51 |
mycoDA | yup | 13:51 |
kvarley | So does that mean analogue tv or digital? (I use sky for my tv service) | 13:52 |
mycoDA | digital | 13:52 |
kvarley | mycoDA: Ok, how do I know if I have digital or not? I think Sky is? | 13:53 |
mycoDA | that skinflint site was one that i was given when i asked for a good comparison site in the uk on mythtv-users | 13:53 |
kvarley | mycoDA: It's my first time doing this, I appreciate all the help greatly :) | 13:53 |
mycoDA | if it is from a box of theirs u need to go another way | 13:53 |
mycoDA | ie pay tv | 13:53 |
mycoDA | freeview is dvb-t | 13:54 |
kvarley | Sky is DVB-S | 13:55 |
mycoDA | some of it is encryped | 13:56 |
kvarley | mycoDA: Might have to be ditching sky in the future for freesat | 13:58 |
mycoDA | http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Recording_Digital_Cable | 13:58 |
Zinn | [www.mythtv.org] Recording Digital Cable - MythTV Official Wiki | 13:58 |
mycoDA | that would be how to grab sky | 13:58 |
mycoDA | might be able to add a dvb-s tuner for the freeview channels from the satellite, anythin else needs their box (even free to view) | 14:00 |
mycoDA | brb - gonna check on dogs | 14:02 |
dewman | superm1, I know this is off topic, but I think I stumbled across one of your blogs for asterisk and google voice. some good stuff there....Thanks for the generic config files. =) | 16:49 |
superm1 | dewman, glad to hear it's making it's rounds around the internets :) | 16:59 |
superm1 | not enough people post entire "working" configs for stuff like this | 17:00 |
superm1 | dewman, are you going to be using it with a sip adapter or sip application? | 17:02 |
kvarley | I'm looking for a USB DVB-S (S2 as well preferrably) TV box, can you recommend any good ones with Linux support? | 17:07 |
dewman | superm1, I was just trying to get it to work with google voice. I dont really have any hardware yet to test it out. But was thinking if I could use that and ditch the landline i would. Save some extra $$ =) | 17:22 |
superm1 | dewman, well just keep in mind that google hasn't committed to keeping GV free after this year | 17:23 |
superm1 | so you might have to start handing them some money if you commit to the solution | 17:23 |
dewman | O yeah, I know....But i figured it could be another little project that I can try.... =) I grabbed the .iso from asterisk, did some updates and it broke right away....so, I figured instead of messing with a centos I would see if 10.04 would work.... | 17:25 |
superm1 | yeah it should work on ubuntu, i've got a friend who does it there | 17:27 |
superm1 | there's probably a PPA out there for the newer version of asterisk too | 17:27 |
dewman | ok.....that works. I am grabbing 10.10 right now for a fresh load.... | 17:30 |
dewman | err...10.04 | 17:31 |
