[07:18] anyone here [07:59] 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...? [10:34] guys... mythbuntu 12.04.1 iso. is that a live cd/dvd? [12:27] guys... mythbuntu 12.04.1 iso. is that a live cd/dvd? [12:27] anyone here, or nobody knows?? [13:59] TandyUK: I do believe it is a live cd [14:20] TandyUK: yes i tis [15:58] a pretty useless live cd yeah.... [15:58] my backend is running an up to date 0.26 mythtv === chiluk is now known as chiluk_away [15:59] the live cd needs a newer database version, which gets about 400 meg of updates, including kernel, x, etc [15:59] so different question.. [16:00] is it possible to do a network install of an up to date ubuntu 12.04 with mythtv 0.26 [16:01] i guess youdneed to add the update repos at the point of setup so it can just grab the latest version === chiluk_away is now known as chiluk [17:36] anyone here ever ripped vhs videos to digital using mythtv [17:37] i have a nova-t 500 in one of my frontends, which i have 2 vhs recorders attached to [17:38] 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 [18:14] ok, heres one for the devs... [18:14] when you freshly install a mythbuntu machine, on first boot it auto starts the frontend, which then asks for language and database settings [18:15] now i need to update to 0.26 and reboot before i can actually connect to my backend [18:15] if i cancel,the frontend exits with status 130 [18:15] which is detected as a crash and it auto restarts [18:16] how do i close the frontend until ive got it all up to date? [18:16] TandyUK: ssh in and kill it? [18:16] I normally ssh in, upgrade, then reboot [18:22] nah im doing this on site for once, want the customer to see what actually goes on [18:22] but yeah i sshed and killed it :) [18:23] the cust has a load of old vcrs which he wants to burn to archive, and burn some on to dvd [18:32] don't start the frontend before you upgrade to 0.26? [18:32] why do you have to reboot? [18:32] oh wait [18:32] I thought you were talking about the live cd for some reason [19:00] i think the livecd should have a few newer builds, like 0.25 i386/x64 and 0.26 i386/x64 [19:00] im sure whatever script handled it could do a 0.27 beta iso too [19:01] or perhaps just have a single livedvd [19:07] TandyUK: they get whatever was available when they were spun [19:07] it is easy enough to add the updates repos and update it, then run the latest [19:13] yeah just annoying and time consuming when on site, and you have a perfectly good 100mb link back at the office... [19:13] the site has like 6mb [19:13] machine is now up tho with mythtv setup connected to the master backend [19:14] so now to get my 2 svideo inputs working and hooked up to channel numbers [19:44] ok any ideas how i do that? [19:44] i have added the cards, added a listing source for each vcr [19:45] connect the input (Svideo1) to the source, and it wants me to scan for channels [19:45] at which point it tries tuning the card rather than just using the inout [19:46] 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] TandyUK, although there is probably some better software for doing what you want anywy [19:46] since you will need to have it fake a channel, et [19:47] yeah thats what i dnt know how to do [19:47] the end result just needs to be super simple [19:47] TandyUK, http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/S-Video/Composite_Input_Recording [19:47] should be similar [19:48] ty, btw wtf did you google to get that? [19:48] * TandyUK has been looking for hours lol [19:48] mythtv svideo input [19:48] first link [19:49] * tgm4883 goes to get lunch [20:39] ok well progress, but when i try to watch channel 199 (what i used as the number) [20:39] the tuner is already watching channel X on a different card (and different backend) [20:40] when i change to 199, i get told [20:40] MythTV is already using all available inputs for the channel you selected. ..... [20:46] TandyUK, does the mythweb say it's in use? [22:44] ok sorte at last [22:44] i have composite inputs working giving me a colour picture [22:44] however i have no sound [22:44] the only choice in getting in mythtv-setup is alsa:default [22:45] its a pvr-500 card [22:46] ok found its wiki page [22:53] ok regarding the sound (on a page talking about 0.20) the fixes involve using ivtvctl which is not installed by default [22:53] any reason this is not there by default (any more?) [23:16] 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. [23:17] 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
