[19:02] anyone here using mythexport? [19:02] Can't seem to tell if its working or not [19:03] I addede a video to the queue..backend status says its running [19:03] but I don't see any tasks in my process list that look like its doing anything [19:03] rhpot1991, ^ [19:05] all i see is mythexport_addjob don't see any ffmpeg or avconv of mythtrans [19:12] DaveInTO: what version of mythtv? [19:13] 0.26 [19:14] saw on the wiki its not supported [19:14] but also saw that other people got it working via STARTIMEUTC [19:17] is it much work getting this going? or should i look at nuvexport? [19:17] I just need to get my recordings into smaller files that my wireless network at home won't choke on [19:17] DaveInTO: just need to adjust a few things [19:17] finding you links to the bugs [19:18] give me a few [19:18] ah..ok [19:18] thanks [19:18] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mythexport/+bug/1075791 [19:18] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mythexport/+bug/1010080 [19:18] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mythexport/+bug/982241 [19:19] those 3 are most likely biting you, each one has an easy fix in the descriptions/comments [19:20] super [19:20] thanks [19:21] DaveInTO: ping me or email me if you still have issues after that [19:21] should i see a daemon running? [19:22] nm [19:22] only after you fix the log bug [19:22] that was the 3rd bug [19:22] yeah [19:22] then you will need to restart it yourself [19:22] sudo service mythexport restart [19:24] perfect [19:24] i had to make mythexport.log [19:24] didn't exist on my system [19:24] i think we are in business [19:24] i see some ffmpeg goodness in the log [19:24] thanks [19:26] DaveInTO: no problem, I have to get those closed the 0.26 one is biting me cause I need to detect which version [19:28] or create a page...with the answers... [19:28] the ubunty mythexport page is gone also [19:28] the one that is refferenced during the install of myth export [19:29] tgm4883: did we not bring that over? [19:29] DaveInTO: got a link to where it should be? [19:29] bring what over? [19:29] one sec [19:30] tgm4883: the mythexport wiki page [19:30] * tgm4883 shrugs [19:30] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MythExport [19:30] that guy [19:30] oh thats the old one [19:30] http://www.mythbuntu.org/wiki/MythExport [19:30] doesn't look like it [19:30] which linkes to a bad page [19:30] I think I need to just replace all of that [19:31] DaveInTO: what kind of device are you using btw? [19:31] rhpot1991, I thought you moved it to your site [19:31] for playback of exported vids [19:31] tgm4883: I moved the configs part to my site [19:31] no big deal if we can't get it [19:31] hmm ok [19:31] no one complained till now [19:31] I'm unsure if we can get it [19:31] maybe via google cache [19:31] and new release is coming [19:31] so I'll just remove the link and deal with it [19:32] most of it was outdated info for old releases [19:32] that the config stuff on my site replaced [19:32] "what to do if ffmpeg changes flags for the ten millionth time" [20:03] rhpot1991: thanks again..working perfectly now [20:04] now i just have to get home and try those vids out on my xios and see [20:10] DaveInTO: very nice [20:10] let me know how they work with that device [20:10] might have saved me from having to run wire in the wall [20:11] but then again..now i have 50 feet of cable i bought this weekend sitting there waiting to be installed somewhere [22:17] can someone please help me? I installed ubuntu minimal and then mythbuntu, i am trying to configure my backend but it's failing to even add my user to the mythtv group because of password failure. I am entering the same password as I use to login [22:19] ubuntuaddicted, you only have the single user? [22:20] yes [22:20] it keeps brining up this user group membership dialog box thing [22:21] i have triple checked my user's password and even changed it but still this dialog about my user not being within mythtv group isn't accepting my password [22:21] i even went into users and groups and manually added my user to the mythtv group [22:21] ubuntuaddicted, you logged out and back in after it added your user to that group? [22:22] no BUT why is it not accepting my password within the dialog box [22:22] ubuntuaddicted, IDK [22:24] ubuntuaddicted: I believe you need to log out and log back in to acquire your new group rights as mentioned by tgm4883. [22:25] some glitch in the dialog box that appears because after I manually added my user to the mythtv group and logged out and back in, it's now working. BUT previously whenever I clicked on to configure my mythbackend setup, the dialog box to add my user to the mythtv group failed with whatever password I entered [22:26] ubuntuaddicted, IDK. Perhaps it was added and it was failing because it was already added [22:26] * tgm4883 shrugs [22:26] my point being is that clicking mythbackend setup within mythbuntu prompts to add my user to the mythtv group fails no matter what password I entered [22:26] it kept saying the password I entered was incorrect when it wasn't [22:27] oh well, at least now I can get into mythbackend setup. [22:27] ubuntuaddicted, IDK, but it works now right? [22:27] yes [22:27] ok good [22:28] but now, I want to restore my mythconverg from a 0.21+fixes mythbuntu setup. do I just perform a normal setup and then do a full database restore from my mythbackup.pl script? [22:28] from 0.21 fixes? I think you have to go to 0.24 first [22:28] ubuntuaddicted, I don't remember, you should probably ask in #mythtv-users [22:29] i thought the restore process updates the database schema during the restore [22:29] but i will ask over there. thanks [22:33] ok, weird. now the next box password prompt isn't working. it's saying "please enter your current login password" but when I do it just fails [22:35] it fails to stop the backend because password fails [22:37] then it says "please your current login password to start the mythtv backend" but of course it fails even though I am entering the correct password. [22:45] rhpot1991: hey hey [22:45] any easy trick to the missin faac? [22:45] i have medibuntu [22:45] downloaded the newest confits [22:45] it's more strange because when I make a change in the mythbuntu control center, it asks for authentification and when I enter my users password it works [22:45] so, I don't know what password it's asking for with that other dialog box [22:58] i just noticed when I enter the password enough times it says it failed to start the mythtv backend as user root [22:58] why is it trying to start the myth backend as user root? [23:05] ok, looking at /var/log/auth.log I see a bunch of failed su for root by daniel, what do I do to fix this?
