=== Hydroponx is now known as Hydr0p0nX [04:39] just reinstalled mythbuntu but keep getting mysql errors in control center can someone tell me how to fix that [04:50] anyone there? [04:57] how do i update mythbuntu to the latest version? [05:04] anyone still up? [14:29] trying to do updates on new mythbuntu install and it just hangs. i let it run overnight and it never finished [14:29] any ideas? [14:32] do the updates in smaller batches [14:32] try to narrow down which update is causing the problem [14:58] how do i narrow it down? It asked me when i first started up mythbuntu there were updates available i said to do them. Little screen is black with only title bar visable but been running all night [14:59] is it safe to end the task? [18:59] I have a mid-2007 mac mini. I'd love to do a clean install of mythbuntu, but I'm totally new to linux. Is the current version even compatible with my machine? 1.83GHz core2duo 2gb ram [18:59] thanks for any/all help [19:00] http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Installing_MythTV_on_an_Intel_Mac_Mini_using_Ubuntu === superm1_ is now known as superm1 [19:59] 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? [20:00] or does 14.04 not have 0.27? [20:09] 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 === kees_ is now known as kees [20:11] 14.04 should have 27 by default, if i'm not mistaken (and I could be) [20:11] that's what I thought [20:13] 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 [20:14] 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] you run front and back ends on windows or just frontends? [20:14] 1 frontend [20:14] nice [20:15] the combined front/backend is mythbuntu [20:15] I may have to try it out on windows again... would add additional versatility to the frontend [20:15] IO [20:15] I've also wired the house w/ cat 6e [20:16] yeah, I did that a couple years ago... pain, but worth it [20:16] yea, i finally broke down last winter [20:17] crawlspace made it not so bad, had to run speaker wire too figured, might as well do both since i'm in the crawlspace [20:18] ha [20:18] yeah, looking back, I should have run more cables... but oh well, too lazy to redo it [20:18] I want to add two more cat 6 runs, but they aren't "needs" [20:19] yeah, i was able to work some feng shui (sp?) on my hardware to make due with what I have run [20:23] I just had to re-build my backend due to a fried board [20:25] ouch [20:25] eh, it wasn't too bad [20:26] found a board for ~65 picked up fx-6300 on sale [20:26] I recently switched systems for my backend... to something more powerf riendly [20:26] ahh, nice... 6 core... [20:26] * Colossus_ has wondered if that's useful [20:26] :D [20:27] I moved from a quad core athlon ii to a turion n54l (hp microserver) [20:27] i've been converting all my movies lately [20:27] had load averages > 9 for hours on end w/ no real issues [20:27] ahh [20:28] I usually use another system for transcoding [20:28] I did try out realtime transcoding to h264 from live tv when I was running the quad though... for my tablet [20:28] my only complaint right now is there's a brief audio stutter when changing channels [20:28] but then found a player with hardware accelerated mpeg2 that just plays them straight up, so I figured I didn't need it [20:29] hmm [20:29] yeah, wangel was saying 0.27 was supposed to contain a bunch of improvements for live tv [20:29] I'm still on 0.25 :( [20:29] oh [20:29] though I rode out 11.10 with 0.24.1 until it started telling me every day to "upgrade your stupid system" [20:29] so I don't know when I'll upgrade :) [20:29] nice [20:30] will i have any issues importing my .26 db into a fresh .27 install? [20:30] I wouldn't think so [20:30] you'll probably have to run mythtv-setup to upgrade it to .27 though [20:31] mythtv-setup would be a given on a fresh install [20:33] don't forget to backup [20:33] yeah, clonezilla image before i begin :) [20:33] i backup the db daily [20:34] 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 [20:35] yeah, my recordings are on a separate partition [20:35] definitely better that way [20:35] 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 [20:36] oh [20:36] I guess i did over-engineer mine [20:36] I have 4 2tb drives shared for storage, + 500GB boot [20:36] heh, wow [20:36] oh, yours is a nas as well? [20:36] could be :) [20:36] heh [20:37] but, no, it's primarily myth... moved my music over working on migrating movies and converting to mp4 [20:37] then I can start on dvd's [20:37] ahh [20:38] yeah, having dvds on the system instead of in a stack/case somewhere is so much handier [20:38] although those dvd changer towers are really cool looking [20:38] :D [20:38] GF was hating it for a while [20:38] recently found an IR receiver that works with both myth and my harmony remote [20:39] cool [20:39] link? [20:39] :D [20:39] I bought a flirc... but still haven't set it up [20:39] flirc ftw [20:39] it's an old HP p/n 5188-1667 [20:39] hmm [20:39] I bought one and it's awesome [20:40] only disappointment with it is the red/blue/yellow/green buttons aren't being picked up [20:40] super easy to map it to keyboard keys, only have 1 remote now [20:40] I've h ad pretty good success with the generic rosewill remotes and receivers... though some have horrible usage angles [20:40] for use with mce remotes anyway [20:42] this one works really well, a little slow to respond some times [20:42] hmmm [20:43] http://www.amazon.com/HP-Infrared-Receiver-Center-5188-1667/dp/B000Z7XJME [20:43] that's it, just beware [20:44] a lot of people are seeling other models that don't work as well and labeling it the 5188-1667 [20:44] at least, that's what I've heard about happening on ebay [20:44] ahh, ebay... yeah... wild west these days [20:46] I learned a valuable lesson the other day [20:46] always check for a toilet seat in the dark before sitting down? [20:46] the high-voltage wall boxes are not well suited for cat6 [20:47] ahh [20:47] :) [20:47] fixed 2 of the 3 I used those for [20:48] was causing a problem with the cable crimping and intermittent connectivity drops === dahlSTROM_ is now known as dahlSTROM
