| skd5aner | tgm4883: can you tell me a little bit about how mythfrontend gets launched? How is it automated/scripted? | 00:07 |
|---|---|---|
| skd5aner | I don't use mythbuntu, I'm just trying to mimic some of it manually | 00:08 |
| qwebirc73575 | Hi... How does one get the latest 0.26 update? Does it automatically pushed out if you are running 0.25? | 02:09 |
| qwebirc73575 | will try to get info on line later.. Thanks. | 02:19 |

| jrb^ | Greetings! | 21:35 |
| jrb^ | I have a Hauppauge HVR 950Q tuner that I am having some problems with. | 21:36 |
| jrb^ | The maintainer of the modules for this tuner have made a couple of small changes to it that are committed. | 21:37 |
| jrb^ | How do I influence the kernel maintainers for ubuntu 12.04 to back port the changes to the 3.2 kernel being used for mythbuntu 12.04? | 21:38 |
| jrb^ | Currently, when using mythtv with the drivers as is, It causes a kernel data dump, and kills mythtv-backend. | 21:39 |
| tgm4883 | jrb^, just want to make sure I understand what you are saying. You want to have the kernel maintainers take the changes in the mythbuntu 12.04 kernel and apply them to the ubuntu 12.04 kernel? | 21:42 |
| EdMarx | Hello I have a few questions in regards to setting up mythtv Anybody there/ | 21:43 |
| * tgm4883 hides | 21:43 | |
| EdMarx | hides? | 21:43 |
| tgm4883 | EdMarx, ask your question | 21:44 |
| EdMarx | I really want to use mythbuntu. Right now I don't have cable or the cable cards. So I was planning on using it to manage the music and videos I already have. Does this make sense? | 21:45 |
| tgm4883 | EdMarx, if you plan on expanding later to use a tuner card, then yes | 21:45 |
| EdMarx | Yes I do. on that note do I need cable to get live tv? what about watching tv on the internet like sidereel.com or hulu | 21:46 |
| tgm4883 | You would need some source for live tv (be it cable, satellite, antenna) | 21:47 |
| tgm4883 | I don't think hulu works, and I'm unsure what sidereel.com is, but you might want to look at the mythtv plugin mythnetvision | 21:47 |
| jrb^ | I was referring to the ubuntu kernel maintainers that would port the changes made to the ubuntu kernel | 21:47 |
| EdMarx | Ok So by default it has storage groups of videos, pictures, etc. I want to have an easily accessible gui that says Movies and TV-Shows just like it says videos | 21:48 |
| tgm4883 | jrb^, I'd probably just try emailing the maintainer of wherever the modules live | 21:48 |
| tgm4883 | so if they are in the kernel, you would need to email the kernel maintainers | 21:48 |
| EdMarx | I have made a storage group called movies and made the directory /var/lib/mythtv/movies. Am i on the right track? | 21:49 |
| jrb^ | the maintainer of the modules has committed the changes to the mainstream kernel.. 3.5.something.. | 21:50 |
| tgm4883 | EdMarx, I suppose, although there isn't really a need to create a directory for /movies, you could just use the /videos dir | 21:50 |
| jrb^ | so I would need to find out who maintains the 3.2 kernel for ubuntu | 21:50 |
| tgm4883 | jrb^, right, but you would need to talk to the ubuntu kernel-team (eg. the maintain of the ubuntu package linux-image-*) | 21:50 |
| EdMarx | I want to keep them separate tough. | 21:50 |
| tgm4883 | jrb^, ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com | 21:50 |
| jrb^ | ah ok. | 21:51 |
| jrb^ | thanks | 21:51 |
| jrb^ | i'll visit that list | 21:51 |
| tgm4883 | jrb^, yw. That is my best guess from http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise/linux-image-3.2.0-23-generic | 21:51 |
| Zinn | [packages.ubuntu.com] Ubuntu -- Details of package linux-image-3.2.0-23-generic in precise | 21:51 |
| tgm4883 | EdMarx, what is the difference between /videos and /movies? | 21:52 |
| EdMarx | videos would imply any video material i want to be able to navigate to a "Tv Show" icon when I want to watch prerecorded tv programs and navigate to a "Movie" icon when I want to watch movies | 21:53 |
| tgm4883 | EdMarx, there are basically two sections 1) Recordings - which has all recorded content 2) Videos - Which has all content from your videos storage group | 21:54 |
| jrb^ | tgm4883, thanks! I visited that page, and subscribed. | 21:54 |
| tgm4883 | There might be a way to create a menu entry to jump to a certain place in the Videos section, but I've never tried it | 21:55 |
| EdMarx | Ok so where it says screenshots, pictures, music, fan art… can I not just add another directory there and make an icon for it so when I am on the fronted I can just navigate there? | 21:55 |
| tgm4883 | EdMarx, no, the frontend has no knowledge of those directories | 21:56 |
| tgm4883 | the frontend just asks the backend for content | 21:56 |
| EdMarx | ok well I will try this if not oh well. another problem i am having is I want to be able to input a flash drive | 21:56 |
| EdMarx | and have the screen allow me to sent that content to a hard drive | 21:57 |
| EdMarx | can I do this from the frontend? | 21:57 |
| tgm4883 | maybe with a custom user job | 21:57 |
| EdMarx | what is that | 21:57 |
| tgm4883 | http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/User_Jobs | 21:58 |
| Zinn | [www.mythtv.org] User Jobs - MythTV Official Wiki | 21:58 |
| EdMarx | k | 21:58 |
| EdMarx | how do you import media into your mythbuntu box? | 21:59 |
| tgm4883 | I rip it on my backend | 21:59 |
| EdMarx | Ok maybe that is th way I should do it. | 22:00 |
| EdMarx | So do you have tv shows and movies that you have ripped ? | 22:00 |
| tgm4883 | yea | 22:01 |
| EdMarx | when you are watching tv how to you separate the shows from the movies? | 22:02 |
| tgm4883 | a few things | 22:03 |
| tgm4883 | I don't record movies, only tv shows | 22:04 |
| tgm4883 | the tv shows that I have ripped are separate from my recorded tv show | 22:04 |
| tgm4883 | so to get to them, I go into videos | 22:04 |
| tgm4883 | and inside that, there is a movies folder and a television folder | 22:04 |
| EdMarx | oh there is? | 22:05 |
| tgm4883 | yea, by default it's not but there are a few different settings to set in there | 22:05 |
| tgm4883 | I chose the one that makes two folders there | 22:05 |
| EdMarx | not to be a pain but how did you | 22:05 |
| EdMarx | do that? | 22:05 |
| tgm4883 | EdMarx, I'll have to go home and look. I think there is just a different view to change it to | 22:06 |
| tgm4883 | let me see if I can look on my test VM here | 22:06 |
| EdMarx | ok. i don't want to trouble you | 22:06 |
| tgm4883 | found it | 22:07 |
| tgm4883 | once in there, you hit M then choose Browse By | 22:07 |
| tgm4883 | then select TV/Movies | 22:07 |
| EdMarx | once in the front end | 22:08 |
| EdMarx | ? | 22:08 |
| tgm4883 | yea | 22:08 |
| tgm4883 | once in the videos section | 22:08 |
| EdMarx | ok | 22:08 |
| EdMarx | I know.. i have a lot of questions but… how do you rip the movies to the videos folder? | 22:09 |
| EdMarx | wait | 22:09 |
| EdMarx | nevemind | 22:09 |
| EdMarx | tgm4883: still there? | 22:57 |
| tgm4883 | for a few minutes | 22:57 |
| EdMarx | I'm in the fronted and in videos. I see the video I put on HD. it gives me media information and says play yet when I click play nothing happens. codecs? | 22:58 |
| tgm4883 | doubtful. what does the /var/log/mythtv/mythfrontend.log say | 22:58 |
| EdMarx | checking.. fyi even with vlc player without fronted guy still dint work | 22:59 |
| EdMarx | it says a lot of things | 23:02 |
| EdMarx | am I supposed to be looking for anything inparticular | 23:02 |
| tgm4883 | pastebin them | 23:03 |
| tgm4883 | and the backend logs too | 23:03 |
| tgm4883 | although if VLC can't play it either, I'd say it's an issue with the file | 23:03 |

| EdMarx | good point | 23:06 |
| EdMarx | MiWfmYsv | 23:13 |
| EdMarx | yeah you were right it was the file | 23:18 |
| EdMarx | geez | 23:18 |
