[04:19] <qwebirc62607> Hey all. I just install ubuntu 11.04, and installed mythbuntu for mythtv. I've tried the shipped version, 2.4 version and 2.5 version and in each has the same problem of seeking causing audio static on occasion. It doesn't happen everytime, but most times I'll get loud static and lose the sound. Does anyone ran into this problem?
[04:20] <qwebirc62607> Wow fail english... Has anyone ran into this problem?
[04:27] <qwebirc62607> I seemed to have fixed it by forcing 48khz or something in the audio menu. I remember reading about that earlier when I was researching it. Have a good night.
[05:35] <mycosys> anyone got some great idea on troubleshooting why netbios seems to be nonfunctional? 10.04lts +0.24fixes
[11:27] <hot_wheelz> Hi tgm4883
[13:53] <dewman> is there any tricks to getting composite video to work? I want to grab a few shows from my cable box....
[13:54] <dewman> not sure if I should be using the s-video input or the rca cables...Or does it matter for quality?
[14:26] <mycosys> had any help dewman?
[14:26] <mycosys> what kind of gpu are you using?
[14:29] <dewman> mycosys, I am using this one, currently it is set up to capture analog cable... http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Pinnacle_PCTV_HD_Card_%28800i%29

[14:30] <mycosys> thats not a gpu
[14:30] <mycosys> oh, composite in
[14:30] <mycosys> is 11:30 pm and it has been a long day
[14:31] <dewman> o you meant.... video card... ;)
[14:31] <dewman> video card is a geforce 8500 gt
[14:33] <mycosys> looks like a bad idea to use that for composite
[14:34] <dewman> hmm... I didnt really care about quality, I was just looking to grab a few shows for my little ones. (blues clues, etc....)
[14:34] <mycosys> not about quality - will load down ur cpu like crazy
[14:34] <dewman> because of the raw video correct?
[14:37] <mycosys> yup - is a basic framegrabber
[14:38] <mycosys> hardware is cheap as chips in hong kong isnt it? why not grab a cheap card with mpeg encoder on board?
[14:38] <mycosys> you have heaps o places there dont u dewman
[14:39] <dewman> ha, i live in the middle of a field in MI,USA
[14:39] <mycosys> also - remember hearin of some issues with v4l1 style capture - ot sure of specifics - may be realated to that
[14:40] <mycosys> fenton michigan, ok
[14:40] <mycosys> then newegg ftw lol
[14:40] <dewman> the card has been working pretty good for grabbing cable. just hit the year mark a few days ago.... =)
[14:41] <mycosys> one of the hauppauge cards with encoder on it if u wanna record from ur cable box
[14:41] <dewman> yeah, wife doesnt let me spend to much on new toys...Unless it will make it "better" for her....LOL...Which, in this case it would..
[14:41] <mycosys> there is a wiki on what ur doin http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Recording_Digital_Cable

[14:42] <mycosys> the HDPVR is popular apparently
[14:42] <mycosys> *HD HR
[14:42] <mycosys> HDPVR lol
[14:42] <dewman> yeah, I tried the firewire thing, it works good, except when your watching tv, and it changes the channel on you... ;)
[14:42] <mycosys> that isnt for firewire
[14:43] <mycosys> option 4 of 6 is firewire
[14:44] <dewman> right, I was just throwing out what I have tried in the past. =)
[14:45] <mycosys> http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Hauppauge#Analog_Devices the old Hauppauge PVR-150/250/350 should be pretty much throwaways on ebay now

[14:48] <dewman> I thought I read somewhere that there where some variants of the 150, I think there is a few models that are junk...I cant remember though.
[14:48] <mycosys> dunno
[14:49] <mycosys> long as they work with linux lol
[14:51] <mycosys> the hvr-2250 is another option, dual hybrid card, should be working
