Araya213I just set up a secondary backend with a PVR-150 and an HVR-1600.  My master backend has the same tuners.  I am able to add tuners on the slave but Info Center still shows them as "Unavailable"  I've tried removing and recreating the tuners as well as rebooting the machines in various orders.  Mythtv server is running on the slave and it is able to communicate with the master for all purposes.  Everything seems to be right b01:19
Araya213New development, I can now see the cards as "Not recording" in info center, but now when I try to "Watch TV" it plunks me back to the menu.  Terminal cites GetEntryAt (-1) failed.  Tuners on the master stills seem to record things, but I cannot do live TV with tuners from either machine.  If I remove the tuners from the slave backend, I am able to do live TV.  I have tried adding the slave tuners manually as well as individu02:05

fluvvellIf I use a Gigabyte motherboard with north Bridge: AMD 880G  processing, and HDMI out, what, if any, 1080p playback am I going to get?03:35
fluvvellSpecifically the GA-880GA-UD3H03:36
fluvvellI realise VDPAU is for nVidia chipsets, but of course Gigabyte is in bed with AMD now.03:36
Shadow__Xfluvvell: since mythtv currently only ssupports vdpau for offloading you will need to rely on the cpu03:52
fluvvellShadow__X, thanks, I'm trying to figure out a hardware solution and nVidia doesn't present itself on motherboards that I can find any more.04:04
Shadow__Xwell on the intel side nvidia isnt allowed to make modern chipsets and i am not sure about the amd side but they obviously prefer to make their own chipsets04:04
Shadow__Xyou can certaintly use one of those motherboards aslong as linux can use the video card and at which point you just use the cpu to watch recordings04:05
fluvvellShadow__X, and how do I get on for High Definition sound integration? eg 5.104:11
Shadow__Xthats all depending on the support in linux so if linux supports it then mythtv should too04:18
Gibbyany suggetions on the playback profile, on a Zotac HD-ND02-U with HD-PVR?04:23
Gibbygetting jitter in all of them pretty bad, even tried tweaking vdpaubuffersize04:23
henkpoleyJust updated to 0.24.x, for the giggles switched to OpenGL (recent nvidia card), now only the background loads, but I don't see anything in mythfrontend or mythtv-setup..09:03
henkpoleyI guess that means something is broken with my OpenGL support.09:04
henkpoleyAh, the error is "failed to create opengl texture"09:05
henkpoleyLets see if an `sudo aptitude reinstall nvidia-current` fixes the availability of of the correct libglx.so09:12
henkpoleyit doesn't.. (also doesn't after a reboot)09:22
henkpoleyIn the end fixed it (roundabout though) by removing the system install libglx.so and symlinking it to the nvidia-current install libglx.so10:39
henkpoleyWill probably "unfix" itself on upgrades though10:39
henkpoleyDah, that "solved" it in so far that GLX now doesn't work, and mythtv automatically switched back to regular rendering :P10:58
henkpoleyDid more of the same stuff (but removed some really old nvidia driver cruft I found) again symlinked libglx.so, and now it works..11:56
henkpoleyThere's also something borked with selecting the theme. Needed to restart mythfrontend for the changes to actually work.12:11
henkpoleyAnyways, my old nuppelvideo recordings work again, was broken in 0.22/.23 , which is sweet :)12:12
SusanHis there information somewhere on how to fix problems recording with V4L after upgrading to 11.04?19:49
henkpoleySusanH: what kind of problems do you see? (I've long dropped V4L, but may be of some help)20:25
SusanHthanks.  can't record anything - backend log shows: format_to_mode() does not recognize V4L120:32
SusanHusing a Pinnacle 800i.  digital recording still works fine with hdhomerun20:33
