mhall119 | tgm4883: around? | 16:58 |
---|---|---|
tgm4883 | mhall119, yes | 16:58 |
mhall119 | cool, let me see if I can get bobweaver in | 16:58 |
jhodapp | hey tgm4883 | 16:59 |
tgm4883 | o/ | 16:59 |
tgm4883 | hmm, I might be unavailable for a few minutes | 17:00 |
tgm4883 | someone's transferring a vendor call to me | 17:00 |
mhall119 | tgm4883: no worries, let us know when you're back | 17:00 |
mhall119 | we'll wait a bit for bobweaver anyway | 17:00 |
mhall119 | I've PM'd him | 17:00 |
tgm4883 | ok i'm back | 17:13 |
mhall119 | ok, I'm not sure if bobweaver is around, so we can talk to him later | 17:18 |
jhodapp | here | 17:18 |
mhall119 | tgm4883: so basically I wanted to give you a heads-up about the plans for community involvement in the TV project during the next cycle | 17:19 |
tgm4883 | ok | 17:19 |
mhall119 | jhodapp and I have been working for a while now to get together a bunch of documentation and design specs that we can make public | 17:19 |
mhall119 | which we've finally gotten | 17:19 |
mhall119 | so for the 13.04 cycle, we want the community to have a more direct involvement in the TV development | 17:20 |
tgm4883 | yea that would be nice :) | 17:20 |
mhall119 | so there are a few main areas of focus that I think you and bobweaver can take a lead in | 17:21 |
jhodapp | indeed | 17:21 |
mhall119 | the first is work on re-creating the TV UI in NUX and Unity3d | 17:22 |
mhall119 | I'm hoping that bobweaver will take this on, given the cool stuff he did in Qt and Unity2d | 17:22 |
tgm4883 | yep, sounds like a good thing for him to work on | 17:23 |
mhall119 | We would also like to see a MythTV backend, that would feed into TV and Movie lenses things that you have in your MythTV database | 17:23 |
tgm4883 | On it :) | 17:23 |
mhall119 | which I'm hoping you can help with | 17:23 |
mhall119 | I'm not sure right now how you could feed TV guide listings into Unity, it may take some changes to the API to support that, but if we can get it too all the better | 17:24 |
tgm4883 | That's something I've been working on kinda on and off along with some other projects | 17:24 |
tgm4883 | Yea, we've got alot of stuff available via MythTV that we can tap into | 17:24 |
jhodapp | tgm4883, if you need help with the Unity aspect, ask me or in #ubuntu-unity | 17:24 |
mhall119 | the last major component we'd like is video acceleration support in GStreamer, there's already some work going on upstream around that, but I think it's a good opportunity for someone with the knowledge and skills to contribute to making the TV rock | 17:25 |
mhall119 | yeah, a lot of the work is going ot be done in Unity itself, so you and bobweaver will need to get friendly with those developers, especially guys like gord, tedg and mhr3 | 17:25 |
jhodapp | The benefit of doing this helps not only the TV project, but also brings acceleration to Totem for the Ubuntu desktop by default which is a welcome addition | 17:26 |
mhall119 | tgm4883: so we have a session at UDS where we can work out the details, schedule and roadmaps for this work | 17:27 |
tgm4883 | sweet | 17:27 |
mhall119 | http://summit.ubuntu.com/uds-r/meeting/21146/community-r-tv-development/ | 17:27 |
mhall119 | and jhodapp is going to put everything we just talked about into a blog post, with links to the design spec and NUX documentation and so forth | 17:27 |
tgm4883 | awesome | 17:28 |
tgm4883 | are all the tv sessions planned for UDS already? | 17:28 |
mhall119 | and last but certainly not least, I'd like to see more people join in on this development, so I'd like both you and bobweaver to act as mentors to anbody who wants to get started | 17:28 |
mhall119 | tgm4883: only one session for now, we can add another later in the week if we decide we want it | 17:29 |
tgm4883 | ok | 17:29 |
mhall119 | any questions? | 17:30 |
tgm4883 | I don't think so, I'll have more once we start digging into mythtv scopes and such | 17:31 |
mhall119 | ok | 17:31 |
tgm4883 | mostly regarding lenses and what content we can push that way | 17:31 |
mhall119 | tgm4883: mhr3 in #ubuntu-unity is my go-to person for questions about lenses and scopes | 17:32 |
tgm4883 | it's just pretty difficult to do much right now as everything is internal | 17:32 |
mhall119 | I'm also fairly knowledgeable too, so you can ask me | 17:32 |
jhodapp | tgm4883, he's my go-to person as well | 17:32 |
mhall119 | tgm4883: do you have a link to the work you've been doing to integrate MythTV that jhodapp can include in the blog post? | 17:50 |
tgm4883 | mhall119, I work with jhodapp on the weekly update blog post each week | 18:18 |
tgm4883 | the info there is going to be the most recent, although I still need to fix it from some unity change that broke it | 18:18 |
mhall119 | tgm4883: is it enough for someone who is interested to start helping you? | 18:18 |
tgm4883 | hmm | 18:19 |
tgm4883 | well it links to the code branch I think, and my info is there for people to contact me | 18:19 |
tgm4883 | but it's not exactly a "this is what you can do to help with the mythtv scope" thing | 18:19 |
mhall119 | ok | 18:19 |
mhall119 | tgm4883: I think that's good enough for now, but a blog post about "this is what you can do to help" after UDS might be helful | 18:20 |
tgm4883 | will do | 18:20 |
mhall119 | thanks | 18:20 |
tgm4883 | I need to probably rewrite the entire scope anyway, right now it's based off an early youtube scope that I reverse engineered a long time ago | 18:21 |
jhodapp | hehe | 18:25 |
jhodapp | nice | 18:25 |
popey | i like the idea of us getting more community commits :) | 18:36 |
jhodapp | popey, me too :) | 18:38 |
jhodapp | tgm4883: http://www.doadjustyourset.com/2012/10/18/call-for-more-active-community-participation/ | 18:59 |
tgm4883 | jhodapp, small change, you should link to my and bobweavers LP page https://launchpad.net/~tgm4883 | 19:00 |
jhodapp | sure i can add that | 19:00 |
jhodapp | know bobs? | 19:00 |
tgm4883 | hmm | 19:00 |
tgm4883 | it's not bobweaver I remember that ;) | 19:01 |
tgm4883 | IIRC, it's based on his real name, which I don't recall right now | 19:01 |
jhodapp | found it | 19:01 |
jhodapp | tgm4883, updated | 19:02 |
tgm4883 | thanks | 19:03 |
jhodapp | Feel free to help spread that on social networking | 19:03 |
jhodapp | tgm4883, | 19:03 |
