| fluvvell | with new hardware in, and mythbuntu 10.04, myth-repos, (0.24) we're getting very loud white noise after skipping forward, or ffwdin then returning to normal speed. What are we missing? | 01:03 |
|---|---|---|
| jchance | hello all... i have searched everywhere for an answer to this issue i am having and hope someone here can help me.. i am running kubuntu 10.04 with mythtv 0.24 fixes from the mythbuntu repositories with a hauppauge hdpvr. it was working fine with the same setup prior to a move of the backend machine and reinstall exactly as it was.. when i go to live tv the hdpvr starts up and when mythtv gets a tl lock the hdpvr shuts off an | 01:22 |
| jchance | d the backend crashes. the hdpvr works under windows and using cat /dev/videoX to record to a file. any help is greatly appreciated | 01:22 |
| mrand | fluvvell: I'm headed to bed, but I haven't heard of that problem in a long time (I thought 0.23). Only suggestion I can make is to make sure you are using the 0.24-fixes PPA in case it is fixed there. | 04:31 |
| fluvvell | mrand, , the ppa gets installed with the mythbunty-repos doesn't it? | 04:32 |
| fluvvell | Its complicated with the fact that I upgraded the motherboard to get digital sound for their digital amplifier, I can get it through the hdmi but the amp only accepts audio on the toslink cable :-( | 04:33 |
| mrand | yes, it should. You might make sure that it didn't get disabled on accident by checking that the package version is something like this: Installed: 2:0.24.1+fixes.20110629.d06878a-0ubuntu0mythbuntu1 (the 20110629 is the date) | 04:33 |
| fluvvell | mrand, thanks I'll poke around in the dpkg list now and compare. | 04:34 |
| mrand | fluvvell: after you verify that you are running a recent mythtv version, make sure that audio works in other applications. If it is, then you'll either need to ask on the mythtv users mailing list, or maybe #mythtv-users | 04:34 |
| fluvvell | mrand, thanks. Its been previously a reasonably good system, but they hate it right now! White noise at a volume is pretty aweful | 04:36 |
| mrand | yeah, I understand. | 04:37 |
| fluvvell | and nearly as bad, I feel I screwed up somehow by upgrading them. | 04:38 |
| fluvvell | 2:0.24.1+fixes.20110706.b491236-0ubuntu0mythbuntu1 | 04:39 |
| fluvvell | but mythtv-backend is older ! ? 0.23.0+fixes24158-0ubuntu2 | 04:40 |
| fluvvell | wait, I have a mixture of 0.23 and 0.24 packages, esp in libmyth. That could be my issue! | 04:41 |

| ion9 | any one know why when i add my HDHR source my cable channels no longer show in the guide: running 0.23 on 10.04 | 04:51 |
| ion9 | i can setup the cable and it will work but when i add the HDHR all i get is ATSC | 04:52 |
| foxbuntu | ion9, did you select the guide source on the HDHR input? | 04:58 |
| ion9 | guide is useing SD for both | 05:01 |
| ion9 | two lineups | 05:01 |
| ion9 | ok i now see thay are in the guide but when i chennal up and down watching live tv thay are not there | 05:02 |
| ion9 | if i press C on live TV it will only show one input | 05:07 |
| ion9 | C change inputs on TV Tuner card | 05:07 |
| ion9 | but i can "M" and pick a cable channel and then i'm stuck in cable land have to press M and pick atsc to get back there | 05:09 |
| ion9 | so it look's like channel up and down are for one source in live tv and not all of them | 05:24 |
| ion9 | and you have to use m to change sources | 05:24 |
| bovine | quick question: is it possible for mythbuntu to have the Video folder pointed to a network drive to PULL video from? no writing or recording being made. I've tried this on my set up but i never get any videos found | 18:44 |
| rhpot1991 | bovine: yes | 18:46 |
| rhpot1991 | mount that network path using smb/cifs/nfs/something | 18:46 |
| rhpot1991 | and then point mythvideo at that mount point | 18:46 |
| bovine | hrm. I've mounted it using CIFS and changed the options in Mythvideo to point to the IP and then the Video folder so /iphere/video/ but it never finds anything | 18:48 |
| bovine | the video doesnt need to be all in one single folder does it? | 18:48 |
| rhpot1991 | it shouldn't | 18:48 |
| rhpot1991 | sounds like permissions | 18:48 |
| bovine | the share is off on a drobo so it basically has "no" permissions to prevent any one from accessing it. | 18:49 |
| bovine | i can map to the share and access it via terminal and nautilus without issue | 18:49 |
| bovine | so I have a video share mapped and mounted using this "sudo mount -t cifs -o uid=1000 //192.168.1.106/drobo/video /var/lib/mythtv/videos" i can then hop out to the var/lib/mythv/videos and indeed see everything i have on the drobo but mythtv is refusing to say anything exists out there. Does it take time for the video list to populate or am i missing something really simple here? | 19:16 |
| === dekarl is now known as dekarl_afk | ||
| tgm4883 | bovine, what permissions are on the folder when mounted? | 19:18 |
| tgm4883 | ls -l /foldername | 19:18 |
| bovine | drwxrwxrwx for all | 19:19 |
| bovine | i even copied a single video file into the Trailers folder and that doesnt get seen either | 19:19 |
| bovine | hrm. there is a "scan for music" button but not one for videos. | 19:22 |
| tgm4883 | bovine, hit M | 19:23 |
| tgm4883 | then scan for videos | 19:23 |
| bovine | oh wow. that could have been slightly more obvious. :) its scanning now | 19:24 |
| bovine | TY muchly. I'll find out if this is going to work in a few minutes. Things are running a bit slow because I'm doing all this testing in a VM before I move it to my production machine for the living room | 19:25 |
| bovine | tgm4883: that worked. i knew it was something very simple that I was mising. Thank you :) | 19:34 |
| bovine | now to figure out how to change the icons of the folders. The generic icon is just a bit dull | 19:36 |
| lwizardl | hello | 23:57 |
| lwizardl | is there a way to enable the print screen key while in mythtv setup? | 23:57 |
| lwizardl | I am trying to take screen grabs of my configuration | 23:57 |
