| qwebirc8151 | trying to do updates on new mythbuntu install and it just hangs. i let it run overnight and it never finished | 14:29 |
| qwebirc8151 | any ideas? | 14:29 |

| Hydr0p0nX | try to narrow down which update is causing the problem | 14:32 |

| wangel | greetings everyone. Quick question: I have a backend running: MythTV Version : v0.26.1-34-g81ce5c0 . If I download 14.04 to install as a new frontend, will it work? 0.27 doesn't use protocol version 75 does it? | 19:59 |
| wangel | or does 14.04 not have 0.27? | 20:00 |
| wangel | or still; if I decide to upgrade to 0.27, if I change the repo in the mythbuntu control center and run apt-get update, will it update my db and everything? :D | 20:09 |
| === kees_ is now known as kees | ||
| Hydroponx | 14.04 should have 27 by default, if i'm not mistaken (and I could be) | 20:11 |
| wangel | that's what I thought | 20:11 |
| Colossus_ | I was thinking that I had read somewhere they required that you have 0.26 before upgrading, though mythbuntu says to wait for 14.04.1 to do the upgrade... don't know where I saw that | 20:13 |
| Hydroponx | yea, I'm 0.26 right now haven't made the jump to 0.27 because I haven't found a windows build for it yet | 20:14 |
| Colossus_ | you run front and back ends on windows or just frontends? | 20:14 |
| Hydroponx | 1 frontend | 20:14 |
| Colossus_ | nice | 20:14 |
| Hydroponx | the combined front/backend is mythbuntu | 20:15 |
| Colossus_ | I may have to try it out on windows again... would add additional versatility to the frontend | 20:15 |
| Hydroponx | IO | 20:15 |
| Hydroponx | I've also wired the house w/ cat 6e | 20:15 |
| Colossus_ | yeah, I did that a couple years ago... pain, but worth it | 20:16 |
| Hydroponx | yea, i finally broke down last winter | 20:16 |
| Hydroponx | crawlspace made it not so bad, had to run speaker wire too figured, might as well do both since i'm in the crawlspace | 20:17 |
| Colossus_ | ha | 20:18 |
| Colossus_ | yeah, looking back, I should have run more cables... but oh well, too lazy to redo it | 20:18 |
| Hydroponx | I want to add two more cat 6 runs, but they aren't "needs" | 20:18 |
| Colossus_ | yeah, i was able to work some feng shui (sp?) on my hardware to make due with what I have run | 20:19 |
| Hydroponx | I just had to re-build my backend due to a fried board | 20:23 |
| Colossus_ | ouch | 20:25 |
| Hydroponx | eh, it wasn't too bad | 20:25 |
| Hydroponx | found a board for ~65 picked up fx-6300 on sale | 20:26 |
| Colossus_ | I recently switched systems for my backend... to something more powerf riendly | 20:26 |
| Colossus_ | ahh, nice... 6 core... | 20:26 |
| * Colossus_ has wondered if that's useful | 20:26 | |
| Colossus_ | :D | 20:26 |
| Colossus_ | I moved from a quad core athlon ii to a turion n54l (hp microserver) | 20:27 |
| Hydroponx | i've been converting all my movies lately | 20:27 |
| Hydroponx | had load averages > 9 for hours on end w/ no real issues | 20:27 |
| Colossus_ | ahh | 20:27 |
| Colossus_ | I usually use another system for transcoding | 20:28 |
| Colossus_ | I did try out realtime transcoding to h264 from live tv when I was running the quad though... for my tablet | 20:28 |
| Hydroponx | my only complaint right now is there's a brief audio stutter when changing channels | 20:28 |
| Colossus_ | but then found a player with hardware accelerated mpeg2 that just plays them straight up, so I figured I didn't need it | 20:28 |
| Colossus_ | hmm | 20:29 |
| Colossus_ | yeah, wangel was saying 0.27 was supposed to contain a bunch of improvements for live tv | 20:29 |
| Colossus_ | I'm still on 0.25 :( | 20:29 |
| Hydroponx | oh | 20:29 |
| Colossus_ | though I rode out 11.10 with 0.24.1 until it started telling me every day to "upgrade your stupid system" | 20:29 |
| Colossus_ | so I don't know when I'll upgrade :) | 20:29 |
| Hydroponx | nice | 20:29 |
| Kwisher | will i have any issues importing my .26 db into a fresh .27 install? | 20:30 |
| Hydroponx | I wouldn't think so | 20:30 |
| Hydroponx | you'll probably have to run mythtv-setup to upgrade it to .27 though | 20:30 |
| Kwisher | mythtv-setup would be a given on a fresh install | 20:31 |
| Colossus_ | don't forget to backup | 20:33 |
| Kwisher | yeah, clonezilla image before i begin :) | 20:33 |
| Kwisher | i backup the db daily | 20:33 |
| Colossus_ | heh, man, I clonezilla's my image before separating my recordings from my system and db when I switched machines... talk about a loooooong backup | 20:34 |
| Kwisher | yeah, my recordings are on a separate partition | 20:35 |
| Colossus_ | definitely better that way | 20:35 |
| Colossus_ | I h ave a 2tb for recordings, a 2tb for videos/movies and right now a 250gb for system/db, but it's slow, so I may upgrade that | 20:35 |
| Hydroponx | oh | 20:36 |
| Hydroponx | I guess i did over-engineer mine | 20:36 |
| Hydroponx | I have 4 2tb drives shared for storage, + 500GB boot | 20:36 |
| Colossus_ | heh, wow | 20:36 |
| Colossus_ | oh, yours is a nas as well? | 20:36 |
| Hydroponx | could be :) | 20:36 |
| Colossus_ | heh | 20:36 |
| Hydroponx | but, no, it's primarily myth... moved my music over working on migrating movies and converting to mp4 | 20:37 |
| Hydroponx | then I can start on dvd's | 20:37 |
| Colossus_ | ahh | 20:37 |
| Colossus_ | yeah, having dvds on the system instead of in a stack/case somewhere is so much handier | 20:38 |
| Colossus_ | although those dvd changer towers are really cool looking | 20:38 |
| Colossus_ | :D | 20:38 |
| Hydroponx | GF was hating it for a while | 20:38 |
| Hydroponx | recently found an IR receiver that works with both myth and my harmony remote | 20:38 |
| Colossus_ | cool | 20:39 |
| Colossus_ | link? | 20:39 |
| Colossus_ | :D | 20:39 |
| Colossus_ | I bought a flirc... but still haven't set it up | 20:39 |
| tgm4883 | flirc ftw | 20:39 |
| Hydroponx | it's an old HP p/n 5188-1667 | 20:39 |
| Colossus_ | hmm | 20:39 |
| tgm4883 | I bought one and it's awesome | 20:39 |
| Hydroponx | only disappointment with it is the red/blue/yellow/green buttons aren't being picked up | 20:40 |
| tgm4883 | super easy to map it to keyboard keys, only have 1 remote now | 20:40 |
| Colossus_ | I've h ad pretty good success with the generic rosewill remotes and receivers... though some have horrible usage angles | 20:40 |
| Colossus_ | for use with mce remotes anyway | 20:40 |
| Hydroponx | this one works really well, a little slow to respond some times | 20:42 |
| Colossus_ | hmmm | 20:42 |
| Colossus_ | http://www.amazon.com/HP-Infrared-Receiver-Center-5188-1667/dp/B000Z7XJME | 20:43 |
| Hydroponx | that's it, just beware | 20:43 |
| Hydroponx | a lot of people are seeling other models that don't work as well and labeling it the 5188-1667 | 20:44 |
| Hydroponx | at least, that's what I've heard about happening on ebay | 20:44 |
| Colossus_ | ahh, ebay... yeah... wild west these days | 20:44 |
| Hydroponx | I learned a valuable lesson the other day | 20:46 |
| Colossus_ | always check for a toilet seat in the dark before sitting down? | 20:46 |
| Hydroponx | the high-voltage wall boxes are not well suited for cat6 | 20:46 |
| Colossus_ | ahh | 20:47 |
| Colossus_ | :) | 20:47 |
| Hydroponx | fixed 2 of the 3 I used those for | 20:47 |
| Hydroponx | was causing a problem with the cable crimping and intermittent connectivity drops | 20:48 |
