[00:03] <Zinn> [ubuntuforums.org] Ubuntu Forums - View Single Post - Mythbuntu 11.10 upgrade issues
[00:29] <superm1> figured might as well add that to the topic until it's fixed considering how frequently it's happening

[12:38] <xavieronassis> HDPVR looks nice but I've got a spare computer or two and loved Mythbuntu's features. Can I not buy just a TV capture card that will record all channels from a satellite receiver?
[13:06] <CyberKnet> xavieronassis: no
[13:07] <CyberKnet> xavieronassis: well, maybe. depends what resolution you want to record in. if you want to record in HD, no. If you want to record downsampled to composite/svideo ... maybe if your satellite box will output on them.
[13:08] <CyberKnet> superm1: wow. I totally hit that lightdm issue three or four days ago. No idea how I fixed it, but it did end up fixed. I certainly didn't remove unity-greeter.
[13:10] <rhpot1991> xavieronassis: assuming you are in NA, if so then no you can't get anything that can tune all satellite channels, hd-pvr is your only bet if you want HD
[13:11] <rhpot1991> xavieronassis: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0018LX0DY/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&tag=baablogicnet-20&linkCode=as2&camp=217145&creative=399369&creativeASIN=B0018LX0DY
[13:11] <Zinn> [www.amazon.com] N/A
[13:11] <rhpot1991> not a terrible price, but certainly not great
[13:11] <rhpot1991> I paid that much a year or two ago
[13:30] <xavieronassis> What about non -HD? I Don't really care that much about HD, I just want to have the ability to record for time shifting. And yes, I'm in NA. Price isn't a deal killer but I really do like Mythbuntu - at least I did a few versions back.
[13:35] <rhpot1991> xavieronassis: something like the old pvr-xxx series would work be able to record channel 3 off of coax or svideo
[13:35] <rhpot1991> they are no longer made though, so you will have to find a used one
[13:36] <rhpot1991> digital conversion and all
[13:54] <xavieronassis> I don't fully understand the encryption(?) that is used on some of the satellite channels - I have a few of the Hauppauge cards but they won't receive some of the channels - seems like The History channel was one of them.
[13:56] <xavieronassis> I'll have to fire up one of these machines and try it again - I have a PVR-350.
[13:56] <xavieronassis> Do you know what OS is used on the HD-PVR?
[13:58] <xavieronassis> Copying VCRs to disc is a plus too
[13:59] <xavieronassis> crap! looks like Windows.
[14:00] <xavieronassis> ...Arcsoft software...
[14:04] <superm1> CyberKnet, yeah it's possible to fix without removing unity-greeter too, but that's the easier way
[14:09] <superm1> rhpot1991, sounds like it's incompatible with other expansions
[14:09] <superm1> interesting concept, but with only playing to 12 and getting victory points for just not spending oil i fell like it would go quick
[14:14] <TandyUK> ok with this unity issue
[14:14] <TandyUK> bearing in mind i am remote atm, how do i fix vnc viewer?
[14:14] <TandyUK> i think X is running
[14:14] <TandyUK> but x11vnc doesnt want to start
[14:14] <TandyUK> its like X is runnign as root, but is using /home/myuser/.Xauthority
[14:14] <TandyUK> were it should be running as myuser
[14:15] <TandyUK> or using /root/.Xauthority
[14:16] <TandyUK> and imho the beta test team needs sacking for letting that bug through
[14:16] <TandyUK> 5 mythtv boxes i have upgraded now, all of them have hit exactly the same problem
[14:17] <TandyUK> luckily 3 of them are test vm's
[14:17] <TandyUK> but i still have a pissed of friend with no tv atm
[14:17] <TandyUK> recorrding is fine btw, just cant watch anything
[14:19] <TandyUK> dammit i was remote lol
[14:19] <TandyUK> vpn just went down :(
[14:23] <rhpot1991> superm1: hmmm did I send that to you in here?
[14:24] <rhpot1991> xavieronassis: you can use the hd-pvr with mythbuntu
[14:24] <rhpot1991> it doesn't have an OS on it, it is just a usb "tuner"
[14:24] <rhpot1991> I wonder if you are looking at something different
[14:24] <rhpot1991> and as far as satellite with a pvr-350 you would hook it up like so
[14:25] <rhpot1991> dish -> stb -> pvr350
[14:25] <rhpot1991> you can't hook directly in, need a stb in between
[15:15] <xavieronassis> Guess I didn't read closely enough.. I saw "recorder" and assumed it was a standalone unit like Tivo or something.
[15:16] <superm1> rhpot1991, yeah you did
[15:17] <superm1> TandyUK, problem is we need more testers
[15:17] <superm1> TandyUK, not enough people upgrade early to catch stuff like that
[15:17] <superm1> everyone wants a stable myth box :)
[19:58] <sourchimp> I just setup a mythtv-backend-master on my gateway computer, my ps3 on the LAN cannot find any media servers
[23:29] <mattwj2002> hi guys
[23:29] <mattwj2002> anyone here?
[23:29] <mattwj2002> I am having problems with mythexport
[23:29] <mattwj2002> could I get some help?
