kmcorbettQ: Are people generally having much success with building & running 0.25 on MythBuntu? I have an HDHomeRun dual tuner and I'd like to try the latest fixes for setup. in getting an HDHomeRun Prime, and spare Linux boxes, so I can have one in experimental mode.14:21

likwid--_24.1+fixes + hdhomerun prime works great.14:30
kmcorbettThe setup for channels is less convoluted im with recent fixes on master. I don't know if those fixes were applied My current issues are with channel changing, so not related I think But I'm redoing mythtv-setup over & over - flailing a bit.14:33

rpg32I am trying to get my media center remote working20:00

rpg32the transceiver is: Philips (or NXP) Consumer Infrared Transceiver (HP)20:02
rhpot1991rpg32: is that a winmce remote?20:03
rpg32i believe so... it is an old hp media center remote20:03
rpg32i can't find much information about the remote... not model number or anything, it just says hp media center on it20:04
rhpot1991ok so try this20:04
rhpot1991launch mythbuntu-control-centre20:04
rhpot1991choose windows media in the IR tab20:05
rhpot1991and make sure that you check "generate dynamic button mappings"20:05
rhpot1991apply those chnages20:05
rpg32ok did that20:07
rpg32oh... but the generate dynamic button mappings check mark went away20:07
rhpot1991what do you mean by that?20:07
rhpot1991it toggled after you clicked apply?20:08
rpg32i checked it... then hit apply... after that it was unchecked20:08
