| nemo_nihil | what is the best way to have mythtv play music from an external hard drive? | 02:24 |
|---|---|---|
| Shred00 | the rsyslog.d/40-mythtv-rsyslog.conf doesn't actually seem to be causing rsyslog to even open the mythbackend log on the master builds | 04:40 |
| Shred00 | hrm. the file ownership settings in /etc/rsyslog.d/40-mythtv-rsyslog.conf don't seem to be working. the files are being created with user.group syslog.syslog. | 05:13 |
| Shred00 | filed bug LP #904099 about this | 05:29 |

| skd5aner | hey folks - quick question... I run standard ubuntu (server) and compile and install mythtv from source... | 21:20 |
| skd5aner | I just upgraded from 11.04 to 11.10, and now I can't leverage "service mythtbackend stop" to kill the backend... | 21:20 |
| skd5aner | any ideas? | 21:21 |
| skd5aner | /etc/init.d/mythbackend stop doesn't work either... | 21:21 |
| skd5aner | is this an upstart thing that's causing the issue? | 21:21 |
| skd5aner | and, if I do a killall and kill it off, I can't start it backup using "start" with either command either | 21:25 |
| skd5aner | although it starts fine at boot :S | 21:25 |
| skd5aner | nm... | 21:27 |
| skd5aner | I think I found the (stupid) issue on my side | 21:27 |
| dekarl | skd5aner: I have that too sometimes. on 11.04 though. didn't dig into it further | 21:32 |
| marsilainen | hi all, I'm running mythbuntu 11.04; I have a java applet which has some video that I'd like to display onto my tv; the builtin browser doesn't support java so instead I quit out of the frontend back to xfce and launched firefox | 21:36 |
| marsilainen | the java applet runs fine in that and the video appears but I get no audio (through hdmi) | 21:36 |
| marsilainen | when in the desktop what audio does mythbuntu use? I don't see pulseaudio there which is the normal ubuntu way - is that not used in mythbuntu? | 21:37 |
| marsilainen | also, any other ideas on how I can make this work - either from inside mythtv frontend or just from the desktop? | 21:37 |
| dekarl | marsilainen: pulseaudio is supposedly not able to passthrough the audio bitstreams so its usually avoided (only hearsay for me) | 21:42 |
| marsilainen | dekarl: sure | 21:42 |
| marsilainen | dekarl: so does mythtv use alsa directly? | 21:42 |
| dekarl | aye | 21:42 |
| marsilainen | maybe my question maybe an xfce one | 21:43 |
| dekarl | the questions are quite generic, might be best to ask over in #mythtv-users how they add menu items for external applications that use audio, IR, too | 21:43 |
| marsilainen | sure | 21:43 |
| marsilainen | I thought that if I launched firefox from xfce direct then the audio would just work | 21:44 |
| marsilainen | but I remember having to set mythtv to use the right audio device to get it to come through hdmi, so I'm guessing I'd have to do something similar for xfce | 21:44 |
| dekarl | hmm, should work as the frontend might be restarting the pulse stuff, but that's not my area of expertise | 21:44 |
