| G | hads: hey are you the same hads that wrote tv_grab_nz-py by any chance? | 00:17 |
|---|---|---|
| ajmitch | probably a good chance it is hads, given the stuff that he does with tv tuners & the like | 00:26 |
| mwhudson | grr | 00:51 |
| mwhudson | why does virtualbox host only networking not survive host suspend/resume? | 00:51 |
| Atamira | its only doing it to peeve you off mwhudson | 00:55 |
| mwhudson | heh | 00:57 |
| G | mwhudson: who wants to support/resume their virtual host servers :) | 00:57 |
| G | *suspend | 00:57 |
| ajmitch | like testing stuff on your laptop? :) | 00:57 |
| mwhudson | G: 100% of the people surveyed whose opinion i cared about | 00:57 |
| mwhudson | (i.e. "me") | 00:58 |
| G | mwhudson: I'm sure the Sun/Oracle survey produced 0-1% :) | 00:58 |
| * ajmitch tends to use bridged networking in VMs, which has its own set of problems | 00:58 | |
| mwhudson | it _may_ just be the DHCP server that dies on suspend resume | 00:58 |
| mwhudson | ajmitch: i use both :-) host-only is to get a predictable ip address (in which case, why am i using DHCP... hm) | 00:59 |
| G | yeah, I just use bridges too, solves all the issues imo, but I know a lot don't like the idea | 00:59 |
| ajmitch | mwhudson: bridged gets me a predictable ip address, but that's with a dhcp server on another system | 00:59 |
| mwhudson | yeah, i don't control all the networks i connect to, sadly | 01:00 |
| G | and for me, I also get predictable DNS entries | 01:00 |
| G | mwhudson: ahhh yeah, that'd be a pain | 01:01 |
| hads | G: Yes that is me | 02:11 |
| G | hads: first off, very useful, been trying to do the same for mheg5 data, abiet a small roadblock :) | 02:12 |
| hads | G: Are you on the mythtvnz list? A couple of people have already done something there. | 02:13 |
| G | hads: yeah, there is iirc a Windows based one, and there is a shell script that really bugged me :) | 02:13 |
| hads | There's a bash script one and a python one. The Python one borrows code from epgsnoop from memory. | 02:13 |
| hads | http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/mythtvnz/482873 | 02:14 |
| G | oooh hadn't seen the python one, I started one, but keep hitting dst issues :) | 02:14 |
| G | hads: anyway, just curious, is there a problem generating freeview.xml.gz today? | 02:15 |
| hads | There was, I did an rm * in the home directory of that VPS :) | 02:15 |
| hads | Should be fixed now. | 02:15 |
| G | oh right, whoops | 02:15 |
| G | hads: fwiw https://launchpad.net/pymheg2xmltv is what I'm messing with (using rb-download though) | 02:16 |
| hads | Cool thanks. I'd be interested in how you get on. I have meant to do something similar but have had too much on to look at much EPG related lately. | 02:18 |
| ojwb | is the actual data pretty much the same as you'd get from epgsnoop? | 02:18 |
| G | ojwb: Freeview HD uses MHEG5 instead of EIT | 02:19 |
| ojwb | I mean the higher level data | 02:19 |
| hads | The end data? That would be XMLTV, the stuff coming out of MHEG rather than EIT is completely different | 02:19 |
| G | hads: the big problem was I was taking a stab in the dark at how Freeview NZ handled DST | 02:19 |
| ojwb | the EIT stuff seems pretty poor quality on some channels - e.g. just giving the same description to every episode of a series | 02:19 |
| hads | ojwb: Yeah, all much of a much, there may be variations in titles/HD/descriptions etc. | 02:19 |
| hads | Oh that will be the same, it's all the same input data | 02:20 |
| G | hads: I'm going to take a crack at it later today so I'll let you know | 02:20 |
| hads | Have you seen the web services on nzepg | 02:20 |
| ojwb | and FOUR helpfully adding "this is not rugby" to every program while the rwc is on... | 02:20 |
| G | ojwb: haha yeah, that was/is a bit annoying :) | 02:21 |
| hads | Yeah I should have added a regex to get rid of that. | 02:21 |
| hads | G: http://nzepg.org/title-replacements/+json | 02:21 |
| hads | Various things like that to help with cleaning the data | 02:22 |
| G | hads: pretty sure the MHEG data doesn't have issues like that | 02:22 |
| G | but I'll see | 02:22 |
| hads | I think it does, crappy input from the people entering the data. | 02:23 |
| G | I know (Stratos?) have various spellings of the same show | 02:23 |
| G | but when it comes to picking a category from the SQLite DB I use a LIKE query so it's not an issue | 02:24 |
| hads | There's some crowd source category data too; http://nzepg.org/categories/+json | 02:25 |
| hads | This stuff is all from xmltv-proc-nz which you can feed an XMLTV input file | 02:25 |
| * ojwb doesn't really find categories so useful | 02:26 | |
| hads | Right, work to be done. | 02:26 |
| G | hads: ohhh now that is interesting, I had written a little script to gather categories from tvdb | 02:26 |
| hads | xmltv-proc-nz has tvdb and tmdb processing too | 02:27 |
| G | hads: hmmm okay thanks | 02:27 |
| G | I'll look into it | 02:27 |
| hads | I wrote it so it can be used with any XMLTV source to augment the data at a later stage. | 02:28 |
| G | hads: I won't keep you from work, do you mind if I send you a quick e-mail at some point with a Q or two to pick your brain? | 02:30 |
| G | (To answer when you have time of course) | 02:30 |
| hads | Sure, hads@nice.net.nz | 02:31 |
| G | thanks | 02:31 |

| ibeardslee | morning | 18:23 |
| ibeardslee | a belated speaking of VirtalBox .. http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=OTk5Mw | 18:36 |
| ibeardslee | virtual box | 18:36 |
| ajmitch | morning | 18:38 |
| mwhudson | morning | 20:26 |
| Atamira | morning | 20:50 |
| Atamira | what a miserable morning | 20:50 |
| mwhudson | i guess it's a bit early on #ubuntu-release-party | 21:07 |
| ibeardslee | RC hasn't been released yet | 21:07 |
| ajmitch | so if I ask if it's out yet, I'll get told off? | 21:11 |
| ibeardslee | dunno .. let me know ;) | 21:12 |
| ajmitch | by this stage I'm unlikely to reinstall, so updates are pretty infrequent | 21:13 |
| ibeardslee | I spent last night fighting unity-2d | 21:14 |
| ibeardslee | trying to find out why unity won't run | 21:14 |
| ibeardslee | I had 3d goodness with maverick | 21:15 |
| * ajmitch spent last night fighting php | 21:15 | |
| Atamira | i spent last night sleeping :P | 21:16 |
| ajmitch | lucky you :) | 21:17 |
| ajmitch | yay, LP timeout, lifeless will love that | 21:19 |
| mwhudson | yar | 21:35 |
| mwhudson | ajmitch: which page, out of curiosity? | 21:36 |
| mwhudson | bugs.launchpad.net/ seems to be suffering | 21:36 |
| ajmitch | https://launchpad.net/ubuntu-release-notes | 21:37 |
| ajmitch | & also bugs.launchpad.net/launchpad when I was searching for a bug about the timeout | 21:38 |
| mwhudson | i wonder if it's "just" release-related load | 21:39 |
| mwhudson | or something else | 21:39 |
| ajmitch | probably release load, but I can't really check & find out | 21:40 |
| ibeardslee | http://cdimages.ubuntu.com/releases/11.10/ | 21:41 |
| ajmitch | ibeardslee: all old there | 21:42 |
| hads | It's release time already? | 22:36 |
| hads | Huh, is too. I thought it was later in the month. | 22:36 |
| ibeardslee | well the schedule says it is release time .. but haven't seen anything about it .. or a Release Candidate | 23:37 |
| ajmitch | ibeardslee: http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/ | 23:52 |
| ajmitch | it's not like there aren't images to test :) | 23:52 |
| ibeardslee | I had downloaded a DVD image from http://cdimages.ubuntu.com/daily/ | 23:53 |
| ibeardslee | but that failed to boot and I ended up giving up on importing it into my apt-cacher-ng cache | 23:53 |
| ajmitch | how far did it get in booting? | 23:54 |
| ibeardslee | straight to the HD | 23:54 |
| ibeardslee | after selecting the usb drive | 23:54 |
| ojwb | best release yet! | 23:54 |
