bobweaver | Hello there I have been working hard making a MythBuntu SDK I am at the point where I am going to start to register this as a project on launchpad and would like some feed back as to what I should name it | 18:07 |

tgm4883 | bobweaver, jump in #ubuntu-mythtv-dev | 18:08 |
bobweaver | thanks tgm4883 | 18:08 |
nyloc | hi, I have a strange problem with my mythtv-setup. If I enter any submenu like general or channels etc. mythtv-setup just shows me a blank white screen from which I can't return or do anything, only killing my xserver helps. | 19:54 |
nyloc | I'm on kubuntu 12.04 with lts-quantal kernel and intel graphic (core i5). | 19:55 |
lardman | not that I know much about mythtv, but is there any output in the terminal if you start it from there? | 19:57 |
nyloc | lardman: no idea because I cant get to the terminal if the setup shows me the white screen | 19:57 |
nyloc | couldn't find any log files for that. | 19:58 |
lardman | nyloc: run (iirc) mythtv-setup from a terminal if you can | 19:59 |
nyloc | lardman: Hmm, you gave me an idea i could redirect stdout and stderr to a file and have a look at that later on. | 20:00 |
nyloc | because I cant get to the terminal if mythtv-setup hangs my system | 20:01 |
lardman | oh I see, you can't just boot and run it afterward | 20:02 |

bobweaver | nyloc, you could always push the log file to pastebinit | 20:41 |
bobweaver | cat /myt/log/file.txt | pastebinit | 20:42 |
bobweaver | in tty | 20:42 |
nyloc | bobweaver: Thanks, but I guess I somehow figured it out, it seems to be related to my graphics driver. As the problem doesn't exists if I use x11vnc to run mythtv-setup. | 20:43 |
bobweaver | I think that there is a debugging option also with myth-setup but I could be wrong | 20:43 |
bobweaver | Oo | 20:43 |
bobweaver | what is lspci -vnn | grep VGA | 20:44 |
nyloc | 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:0102] (rev 09) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) | 20:44 |
nyloc | my kernel is 3.5.0-30-generic | 20:45 |
bobweaver | huh intel works OOB most the time | 20:45 |
bobweaver | let me ssh into my bacjkend | 20:45 |
nyloc | yeah but ubuntu had strange problems with the intel driver in the last few kernel updates, that why I switched to lts-quantal kernel. | 20:46 |
bobweaver | huh | 20:46 |
bobweaver | so this is 12.04 | 20:46 |
nyloc | yeah | 20:46 |
bobweaver | myth 0.25 ? | 20:46 |
nyloc | yes | 20:46 |
nyloc | http://paste.ubuntu.com/5695011/ | 20:47 |
bobweaver | thansk | 20:47 |
bobweaver | nyloc, when was the last time you upgaded ? | 20:50 |
nyloc | the mythtv-setup log doesn't show anything suspicous, the 20:06::02ff sessions are the crashed ones http://paste.ubuntu.com/5695015/ | 20:50 |
nyloc | bobweaver: 2 hours ago :P | 20:50 |
nyloc | sudo apt-get update && sudp apt-get upgrade is part of my daily routine :P | 20:51 |
bobweaver | do you have (I never used ) bu mythtv-dbg | 20:51 |
bobweaver | purge and re-install myth I would say or have you tried that ? | 20:52 |
bobweaver | or can you not afford to drop the tables ? | 20:53 |
nyloc | bobweaver:No haven't tried that caus I have a "not so easy" setup and my girlfriend will kill me if her tv-shows are not recorded :P | 20:54 |
bobweaver | I hear that | 20:55 |
bobweaver | you got gdb installed ? | 20:55 |
bobweaver | maybe you can run it against mythbackend | 20:56 |
nyloc | bobweaver: I will investigate the problem a bit further tomorrow tonight I can't shut the tv down :P. Not yet but would be no problem to install gdb and the debugging sybols on my media pc | 20:56 |
lardman | hmm, Android frontend keeps crashing when I put in the backend address, not ideal | 20:56 |
bobweaver | lardman, which one ? | 20:57 |
nyloc | the problem is not that of a showstopper as I can configure via x11vnc connection and I'm using xbmc to watch recordings. | 20:57 |
lardman | bobweaver: the officially endorsed beta one | 20:58 |
nyloc | bobweaver: And I'm not even sure if this only affects mythtv-setup or if mythfrontend is also affected. | 20:58 |
bobweaver | nyloc, what is DE ? | 20:58 |
bobweaver | unity gnome ? | 20:58 |
nyloc | kde with kwin | 20:58 |
nyloc | *duck* | 20:59 |
bobweaver | have you tried with a different window manager ? | 20:59 |
bobweaver | I have my own if you would like to try ? | 20:59 |
bobweaver | hacked and ported unity 2d | 20:59 |
bobweaver | must be on 12.04 | 20:59 |
bobweaver | https://launchpad.net/~u2t/+archive/bleedingedge | 20:59 |
nyloc | thanks, I will have a look at it but I quiet a kde guy ;) qt developer since 3.0. | 21:00 |
bobweaver | just make sure that you install libqt4-declarative-particles I forgot to add it to the d/control file | 21:00 |
bobweaver | it is qt | 21:01 |
bobweaver | qt/qml | 21:01 |
nyloc | bobweaver: ok, thats an arument | 21:01 |
bobweaver | nyloc, I am also a qt dev | 21:01 |
nyloc | I will have a look at it | 21:01 |
bobweaver | nyloc, it is Ubuntu TV hacked up | 21:01 |
bobweaver | you can add tgm4883 lens to it also that reads the backend recored shows and also videos on backend | 21:02 |
bobweaver | or scope sorry | 21:02 |
bobweaver | nyloc, I was adding myth services to it when all hell took a turn and things got crazy and I stop deving it | 21:03 |
Zinn | bobweaver: Please watch your language. | 21:03 |
nyloc | lol | 21:03 |
nyloc | ok, I will check it out, but I have to go now. The dog almost rips my shoes off because he needs to go out. See you later. | 21:04 |
bobweaver | cya have a good one. This is what I am working on atm (qt/qml) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pttNcHJZFRI&list=PLB22HyVdO1Glqr7URWQEG_5KFu-MEO2wQ | 21:07 |
lardman | hmm, I see the Android frontend uses Zeroconf to find the backend, but for some reason my backend isn't showing anything that looks backend related as an available service | 22:25 |
lardman | though it does show other unrelated things being broadcast | 22:25 |
lardman | is there a special incantation? | 22:25 |
bobweaver | lardman, have you tried to test the backend | 22:31 |
bobweaver | what is version of myth do you have services ? | 22:31 |
bobweaver | what happens if you putin | 22:32 |
bobweaver | DataBase.ipAddress()+":"+DataBase.port()+"/Capture/GetCaptureCardList" | 22:32 |
bobweaver | to a browser | 22:32 |
bobweaver | where DataBase.ipAddress() == http://192.168.1.whatever and port is the port that is listening | 22:33 |
lardman | bobweaver, I can't get the http://192.168.1.82:6543/Myth/GetHostName to work on Android tablet or the host machine | 22:33 |
bobweaver | sure htat string is right ? | 22:33 |
lardman | ah not host, but other machine on network | 22:33 |
lardman | yeah the IP is correct as I'm logged into the web interface | 22:34 |
lardman | and the port is the one listed in the settings | 22:34 |
bobweaver | http://192.168.1.82:6544/Content/GetVideo?Id=100 | 22:34 |
bobweaver | try that | 22:34 |
bobweaver | looks like you are using wrong port unless you changed it | 22:34 |
bobweaver | or you can do | 22:34 |
lardman | rejected apparently | 22:35 |
lardman | no, I didn't change the port, just the default it setup when I installed it | 22:35 |
bobweaver | http://192.168.1.82:6544/Content/GetFileList?StorageGroup=Fanart | 22:35 |
bobweaver | default should be 6544 not 6543 | 22:35 |
bobweaver | http://192.168.1.82:6544/Content/GetFileList?StorageGroup=Fanart << put that in browser | 22:36 |
bobweaver | work ? | 22:36 |
lardman | rejected by the server | 22:36 |
bobweaver | Oo | 22:36 |
lardman | also with 653 | 22:36 |
bobweaver | what is myth version | 22:36 |
bobweaver | 0.25 ? | 22:36 |
lardman | s/653/6543 | 22:36 |
lardman | MythTV Version : v0.25.3-44-g94d67fc | 22:37 |
bobweaver | the api default sits on 6544 or so I though or know I should say I work with it everyday | 22:37 |
bobweaver | when was the last time you updated / upgraded ? | 22:37 |
lardman | I installed mythbuntu from a new download yesterday | 22:38 |
lardman | whole shebang | 22:38 |
bobweaver | update and upgrade | 22:38 |
lardman | yeah done that too | 22:38 |
tgm4883 | lardman, did you enable the mythtv service in mythbuntu-control-centre | 22:38 |
bobweaver | good call tgm4883 | 22:38 |
tgm4883 | most likely, it's only listening on localhost | 22:38 |
lardman | tgm4883, hmm, not sure about that | 22:38 |
lardman | ok, will have a look see, can I do that remotely? | 22:38 |
bobweaver | you could x11vnc in or something like that though I think that that is over kill and also danger zone | 22:40 |
bobweaver | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vwBbrngafl0 | 22:40 |
bobweaver | sorry | 22:40 |
tgm4883 | look at /etc/mysql/conf.d/mythtv.cnf | 22:40 |
lardman | cat /etc/mysql/conf.d/mythtv.cnf | 22:41 |
lardman | [mysqld] | 22:41 |
lardman | #bind-address=0.0.0.0 | 22:41 |
tgm4883 | I don't recall what the default is | 22:41 |
tgm4883 | try uncommenting that line, then restarting mysql and mythtv-backend | 22:41 |
lardman | done that, no change to the urls - they still don't work | 22:44 |
lardman | I also don't see an avahi broadcast that looks related | 22:44 |
lardman | I'll hold fire 'till tomorrow when I can go and log in locally - don't want to walk past my daughter's room and risk waking her up now! | 22:45 |
lardman | thanks for the suggestions, will check in tomorrow and let you know how I get on :) | 22:46 |
lardman | night all | 22:46 |
