bobweaverHello 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 it18:07
tgm4883bobweaver, jump in #ubuntu-mythtv-dev18:08
bobweaverthanks tgm488318:08
nylochi, 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
nylocI'm on kubuntu 12.04 with lts-quantal kernel and intel graphic (core i5).19:55
lardmannot that I know much about mythtv, but is there any output in the terminal if you start it from there?19:57
nyloclardman: no idea because I cant get to the terminal if the setup shows me the white screen19:57
nyloccouldn't find any log files for that.19:58
lardmannyloc: run (iirc) mythtv-setup from a terminal if you can19:59
nyloclardman: 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
nylocbecause I cant get to the terminal if mythtv-setup hangs my system20:01
lardmanoh I see, you can't just boot and run it afterward20:02

bobweavernyloc,  you could always push the log file to pastebinit20:41
bobweavercat /myt/log/file.txt | pastebinit20:42
bobweaverin tty20:42
nylocbobweaver: 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
bobweaverI think that there is a debugging option also with myth-setup but I could be wrong20:43
bobweaverOo20:43
bobweaverwhat is lspci -vnn | grep VGA20:44
nyloc00:02.0 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
nylocmy kernel is 3.5.0-30-generic20:45
bobweaverhuh intel works OOB most the time20:45
bobweaverlet me ssh into my bacjkend20:45
nylocyeah 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
bobweaverhuh20:46
bobweaverso this is 12.0420:46
nylocyeah20:46
bobweavermyth 0.25 ?20:46

bobweaverthansk20:47
bobweavernyloc,  when was the last time you upgaded  ?20:50
nylocthe mythtv-setup log doesn't show anything suspicous, the 20:06::02ff sessions are the crashed ones http://paste.ubuntu.com/5695015/20:50
nylocbobweaver: 2 hours ago :P20:50
nylocsudo apt-get update && sudp apt-get upgrade is part of my daily routine :P20:51
bobweaverdo you have (I never used ) bu mythtv-dbg20:51
bobweaverpurge and re-install myth I would say or have you tried that ?20:52
bobweaveror can you not afford to drop the tables ?20:53
nylocbobweaver: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 :P20:54
bobweaverI hear that20:55
bobweaveryou got gdb installed  ?20:55
bobweavermaybe you can run it against mythbackend20:56
nylocbobweaver: 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 pc20:56
lardmanhmm, Android frontend keeps crashing when I put in the backend address, not ideal20:56
bobweaverlardman,  which one ?20:57
nylocthe problem is not that of a showstopper as I can configure via x11vnc connection and I'm using xbmc to watch recordings.20:57
lardmanbobweaver: the officially endorsed beta one20:58
nylocbobweaver: And I'm not even sure if this only affects mythtv-setup or if mythfrontend is also affected.20:58
bobweavernyloc, what is DE ?20:58
bobweaverunity gnome ?20:58
nylockde with kwin20:58
nyloc*duck*20:59

nylocok, 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
bobweavercya have a good one.  This is what I am working on atm (qt/qml)  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pttNcHJZFRI&list=PLB22HyVdO1Glqr7URWQEG_5KFu-MEO2wQ21:07
lardmanhmm, 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 service22:25
lardmanthough it does show other unrelated things being broadcast22:25
lardmanis there a special incantation?22:25
bobweaverlardman,  have you tried to test the backend22:31
bobweaverwhat is version of myth do you have services ?22:31
bobweaverwhat happens if you putin22:32
bobweaverDataBase.ipAddress()+":"+DataBase.port()+"/Capture/GetCaptureCardList"22:32
bobweaverto a browser22:32
bobweaverwhere DataBase.ipAddress()    ==  http://192.168.1.whatever    and port is the port that is listening22:33
lardmanbobweaver, I can't get the http://192.168.1.82:6543/Myth/GetHostName to work on Android tablet or the host machine22:33
bobweaversure htat string is right ?22:33
lardmanah not host, but other machine on network22:33
lardmanyeah the IP is correct as I'm logged into the web interface22:34
lardmanand the port is the one listed in the settings22:34
bobweaverhttp://192.168.1.82:6544/Content/GetVideo?Id=10022:34
bobweavertry that22:34
bobweaverlooks like you are using wrong port unless you changed it22:34
bobweaveror you can do22:34
lardmanrejected apparently22:35
lardmanno, I didn't change the port, just the default it setup when I installed it22:35
bobweaverhttp://192.168.1.82:6544/Content/GetFileList?StorageGroup=Fanart22:35
bobweaverdefault should be 6544 not 654322:35
bobweaverhttp://192.168.1.82:6544/Content/GetFileList?StorageGroup=Fanart       << put that in browser22:36
bobweaverwork ?22:36
lardmanrejected by the server22:36
bobweaverOo22:36
lardmanalso with 65322:36
bobweaverwhat is myth version22:36
bobweaver0.25 ?22:36
lardmans/653/654322:36
lardmanMythTV Version : v0.25.3-44-g94d67fc22:37
bobweaverthe api default sits on 6544 or so I though or know I should say I work with it everyday22:37
bobweaverwhen was the last time you updated / upgraded ?22:37
lardmanI installed mythbuntu from a new download yesterday22:38
lardmanwhole shebang22:38
bobweaverupdate and upgrade22:38
lardmanyeah done that too22:38
tgm4883lardman, did you enable the mythtv service in mythbuntu-control-centre22:38
bobweavergood call tgm488322:38
tgm4883most likely, it's only listening on localhost22:38
lardmantgm4883, hmm, not sure about that22:38
lardmanok, will have a look see, can I do that remotely?22:38
bobweaveryou could x11vnc in or something like that though I think that that is over kill and also danger zone22:40
bobweaverhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vwBbrngafl022:40
bobweaversorry22:40
tgm4883 look at /etc/mysql/conf.d/mythtv.cnf22:40
lardmancat /etc/mysql/conf.d/mythtv.cnf22:41
lardman[mysqld]22:41
lardman#bind-address=0.0.0.022:41
tgm4883I don't recall what the default is22:41
tgm4883try uncommenting that line, then restarting mysql and mythtv-backend22:41
lardmandone that, no change to the urls - they still don't work22:44
lardmanI also don't see an avahi broadcast that looks related22:44
lardmanI'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
lardmanthanks for the suggestions, will check in tomorrow and let you know how I get on :)22:46
lardmannight all22:46
