| kyew | running mythtv 0.26 and had front end running on another box and suddenly today it no longer will connect. Updates ran on the mythbuntu backend last night but I have no idea what might have changed...? | 07:59 |
| TandyUK | guys... mythbuntu 12.04.1 iso. is that a live cd/dvd? | 10:34 |
| TandyUK | guys... mythbuntu 12.04.1 iso. is that a live cd/dvd? | 12:27 |
| TandyUK | anyone here, or nobody knows?? | 12:27 |
| sabhain | TandyUK: I do believe it is a live cd | 13:59 |
| rhpot1991 | TandyUK: yes i tis | 14:20 |
| TandyUK | a pretty useless live cd yeah.... | 15:58 |
| TandyUK | my backend is running an up to date 0.26 mythtv | 15:58 |
| === chiluk is now known as chiluk_away | ||
| TandyUK | the live cd needs a newer database version, which gets about 400 meg of updates, including kernel, x, etc | 15:59 |
| TandyUK | so different question.. | 15:59 |
| TandyUK | is it possible to do a network install of an up to date ubuntu 12.04 with mythtv 0.26 | 16:00 |
| TandyUK | i guess youdneed to add the update repos at the point of setup so it can just grab the latest version | 16:01 |

| TandyUK | anyone here ever ripped vhs videos to digital using mythtv | 17:36 |
| TandyUK | i have a nova-t 500 in one of my frontends, which i have 2 vhs recorders attached to | 17:37 |
| TandyUK | i guess ill need to somehow add the s-video input #1 and #2 as channels on the (secondary) backend, so mythth can be set to record for a fixed time, syncronized with pressing the play button | 17:38 |
| TandyUK | ok, heres one for the devs... | 18:14 |
| TandyUK | when you freshly install a mythbuntu machine, on first boot it auto starts the frontend, which then asks for language and database settings | 18:14 |
| TandyUK | now i need to update to 0.26 and reboot before i can actually connect to my backend | 18:15 |
| TandyUK | if i cancel,the frontend exits with status 130 | 18:15 |
| TandyUK | which is detected as a crash and it auto restarts | 18:15 |
| TandyUK | how do i close the frontend until ive got it all up to date? | 18:16 |
| rhpot1991 | TandyUK: ssh in and kill it? | 18:16 |
| rhpot1991 | I normally ssh in, upgrade, then reboot | 18:16 |
| TandyUK | nah im doing this on site for once, want the customer to see what actually goes on | 18:22 |
| TandyUK | but yeah i sshed and killed it :) | 18:22 |
| TandyUK | the cust has a load of old vcrs which he wants to burn to archive, and burn some on to dvd | 18:23 |
| tgm4883 | don't start the frontend before you upgrade to 0.26? | 18:32 |
| tgm4883 | why do you have to reboot? | 18:32 |
| tgm4883 | oh wait | 18:32 |
| tgm4883 | I thought you were talking about the live cd for some reason | 18:32 |
| TandyUK | i think the livecd should have a few newer builds, like 0.25 i386/x64 and 0.26 i386/x64 | 19:00 |
| TandyUK | im sure whatever script handled it could do a 0.27 beta iso too | 19:00 |
| TandyUK | or perhaps just have a single livedvd | 19:01 |
| rhpot1991 | TandyUK: they get whatever was available when they were spun | 19:07 |
| rhpot1991 | it is easy enough to add the updates repos and update it, then run the latest | 19:07 |
| TandyUK | yeah just annoying and time consuming when on site, and you have a perfectly good 100mb link back at the office... | 19:13 |
| TandyUK | the site has like 6mb | 19:13 |
| TandyUK | machine is now up tho with mythtv setup connected to the master backend | 19:13 |
| TandyUK | so now to get my 2 svideo inputs working and hooked up to channel numbers | 19:14 |
| TandyUK | ok any ideas how i do that? | 19:44 |
| TandyUK | i have added the cards, added a listing source for each vcr | 19:44 |
| TandyUK | connect the input (Svideo1) to the source, and it wants me to scan for channels | 19:45 |
| TandyUK | at which point it tries tuning the card rather than just using the inout | 19:45 |
| tgm4883 | TandyUK, I haven't set up svideo input in a long time, but it sounds like you didn't connect the right stuff up in mythtv-setup | 19:46 |
| tgm4883 | TandyUK, although there is probably some better software for doing what you want anywy | 19:46 |
| tgm4883 | since you will need to have it fake a channel, et | 19:46 |
| TandyUK | yeah thats what i dnt know how to do | 19:47 |
| TandyUK | the end result just needs to be super simple | 19:47 |
| tgm4883 | TandyUK, http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/S-Video/Composite_Input_Recording | 19:47 |
| tgm4883 | should be similar | 19:47 |
| TandyUK | ty, btw wtf did you google to get that? | 19:48 |
| * TandyUK has been looking for hours lol | 19:48 | |
| tgm4883 | mythtv svideo input | 19:48 |
| tgm4883 | first link | 19:48 |
| * tgm4883 goes to get lunch | 19:49 | |
| TandyUK | ok well progress, but when i try to watch channel 199 (what i used as the number) | 20:39 |
| TandyUK | the tuner is already watching channel X on a different card (and different backend) | 20:39 |
| TandyUK | when i change to 199, i get told | 20:40 |
| TandyUK | MythTV is already using all available inputs for the channel you selected. ..... | 20:40 |
| tgm4883 | TandyUK, does the mythweb say it's in use? | 20:46 |
| TandyUK | ok sorte at last | 22:44 |
| TandyUK | i have composite inputs working giving me a colour picture | 22:44 |
| TandyUK | however i have no sound | 22:44 |
| TandyUK | the only choice in getting in mythtv-setup is alsa:default | 22:44 |
| TandyUK | its a pvr-500 card | 22:45 |
| TandyUK | ok found its wiki page | 22:46 |
| TandyUK | ok regarding the sound (on a page talking about 0.20) the fixes involve using ivtvctl which is not installed by default | 22:53 |
| TandyUK | any reason this is not there by default (any more?) | 22:53 |
| TandyUK | mpegrecorder.cpp:635 (GetFilteredAudioSampleRate) MPEGRec(/dev/video1): Audio sample rate 32000 Hz#012#011#011#011is not supported by ivtv driver, using 48000 Hz instead. | 23:16 |
| TandyUK | i have no idea where it would be getting 32khz from, all settings i saw i left at the defaults, but i thought they were all 4xxxx | 23:17 |
