mat619Good morning! My Mythbuntu 11.10 install crashes when playing .wma files and I couldn't resolve that issue myself, so I'd like to ask your for help. Here are the details: Starting playback of all wma files in a playlist cause the whole mythfrontend to crash immediately. dmesg shows the following: http://pastebin.com/6wwRzbk506:37

mat619And here's the mythfrontend.log (cutted to show yesterday's contents, when I last tried to play WMAs): http://pastebin.com/5N20wf8f06:40

mat619Any ideas? Thanks in advance!06:40
dekarl_zZzmat619: that sounds like an issue in plain mythfrontend, maybe someone over in #mythtv-users can help07:35
mat619dekarl_zZz: okay, will try but still monitor here if someone else has an idea. thanks for the tip!07:37
dekarl_zZzafter the frontend crashes, are you offered to upload a bug report incl. dump to the bug tracker? the bug id at launchpad would be an interesting hint, too07:38
mat619no, it just restarts immediately.07:42
dekarl_zZzok, I remember having some indicator in the menu bar afterwards to upload the crash report. Not sure if I had to enable something to get that. But it is likely hidden behind the restarted frontend07:45
dekarl_zZzahh http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Debugging#Ubuntu_packages => 2 Modify /etc/default/apport to set "enabled" to 1 then 3) Start the apport service. "sudo start apport" thats likely what I did ;)07:47

dekarl_zZzmat619: did you enable the mythbuntu 0.24/fixes repos to stay up to date with fixes? You packages seem to be from around august 201107:49
mat619dekarl_zZz: uhm, no? I expected the repo to be enabled by default? got to admit that I have no clue how mythtv updates itself though07:50
dekarl_zZzit doesnt, but mythbuntu does all to enable one-click updates. you can enable them in MythbuntuControlCenter07:52
dekarl_zZzThe list of fixes since your version can be seen here http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Release_Notes_-_0.24-fixes your version is "v0.24.1-80-g1de0431" just search for "1de0431" you'll get everything past that07:52
Zinn[www.mythtv.org] Release Notes - 0.24-fixes - MythTV Official Wiki07:52
dekarl_zZzI see some playback fixes but nothing that looks like it relates to your problem07:53
Shadow__Xmat619: you can enable .24.2 fixes under mythbuntu center then after that run update manager08:02
Shadow__Xthe updates will not just install themselves you have to tell them to install either through update manager or through terminal08:03
mat619Shadow__X: ah okay, I thought it would be enabled by default and then queried by the update manager. so that's why never anything mythtv related showed up there08:10
Shadow__Xdo you see the setting? after than there should be a reload or refresh button in update manager and that should offer to update mythtv to .24.208:23
mat619Shadow__X: I'm not at home currently, will have to check this afternoon08:42

solarshey, quick question - is it possible to switch back and forth to a desktop with mythubuntu? I'm not sure whether I should just install ubuntu and media player stuff for flexibility, or use something readymade like mythbuntu21:30
superm1solars: yes21:45
superm1just choose the login session at lightdm/gdm login screen21:45
superm1and turn off automatic login21:45
solarsnice21:45
solarsI didn't install it yet21:45
solarsis there any guide how to install mythbuntu onto a usb stick? couldn't find anything on the page21:46
rhpot1991nothing special required21:47
rhpot1991just make sure you install grub onto the usb stick itself and not your hard drive21:47
rhpot1991that said booting form usb sticks is normally slow21:47
solarsI just don't have a hard drive yet :) thats why I'm asking21:48
