| bregol | Just upgraded from 12.04 to 14.04.1 and had a question about the repos added by Mythbuntu Control Centre. The MythTV Updates one is straightforward, but the other 2 aren't found for Trusty when I apt-get update. Are these other 2 repos (Mythbuntu Updates and XMLTV) needed for a "normal" user? What do those repos give that aren't in the main Ubuntu repos? | 00:29 |
|---|---|---|
| Kwisher | bregol: i had the same issues, just unselect the XMLTV one | 00:33 |
| bregol | I did unselect both xmltv and mythbuntu updates. Just wondering if either of those are used for anything. Looking at http://ppa.launchpad.net/mythbuntu/xmltv/ubuntu/dists/ there is nothing after Precise. It also looks like a year since anything happened in http://ppa.launchpad.net/mythbuntu/testing/ubuntu/dists/ | 00:40 |

| enyc | superm1: (a) We would like to understand, about whats' really going on with 'libav' vs 'ffmpeg' and this being 'external' or internally provided by mythtv source tree etc... | 11:48 |
| superm1 | enyc: hop in #mythtv | 11:56 |
| superm1 | jya: and a few others should be able to discuss more | 11:56 |
| superm1 | But jist right now is there are patches on top of ffmpeg not upstream | 11:56 |
| superm1 | And features not in libav | 11:57 |
| jya | enyc: I have already answered most of those questions in the debian-devel list a couple of days ago | 11:57 |
| jya | mythtv uses its own fork for ffmpeg, currently based on ffmpeg. we use our own mpeg-ts demuxer, various additions in particular related to subtitle support, mheg, stream change detection etc | 12:00 |
| enyc | jya: aaah yes the latter parts helps // makes sense =) | 12:54 |
| jya | we have tried along the years to get our changes committed upstream… too much effort, and often dealing with people who saw no interest in what we wanted made a frustrating experience | 12:56 |
| jya | every single person of mythtv who have attempted to get our changes committed upstreams gave up | 12:56 |
| jya | and there’s been a few in close to 15 years | 12:57 |
| * jya off to bed | 12:57 | |
| enyc | jya: i see dont woryr =) | 12:58 |
| enyc | superm1: as far as I can tell, trusty AND precuse mythtv source packge (and so, built packages) is vulnerable to security issue: http://git.videolan.org/?p=ffmpeg.git;a=commitdiff;h=9ade5b804ea1ff98971972769c43497a597b0e77 | 13:53 |
| enyc | superm1: its a simple patch, resulted in new ffmpeg point releases. In the case of mythtv 0.27.x newer, I wonder if this should be done by merging ffmpeg 1.2.7 over 1.2.6 in there last I checked... | 13:54 |
| enyc | superm1: should I be filing ubuntu bug or something against our packages? | 13:55 |
| enyc | superm1: i note, thecre are a few related / extra fixes in: http://git.videolan.org/?p=ffmpeg.git;a=shortlog;h=n1.2.7 | 14:37 |
| superm1 | enyc: best thing to do is file a bug upstream with mythtv guys | 15:55 |
| superm1 | enyc: they'll include it in the next point release they cut | 15:55 |
| superm1 | and it will get pulled into our -fixes branch builds immediately then | 15:55 |
| Bregol | !help | 16:19 |
| Zinn | !help For a complete list of my knowledge visit: http://www.baablogic.net/Zinn.cgi Other available commands: !status, !about, !bug [bug_number]. | 16:19 |
| enyc | superm1: aha. apparently, it is in fixes already, https://github.com/MythTV/mythtv/commit/f4195b2eb88296523351813c29933e81e6bd851f | 16:22 |
| superm1 | enyc: ah nice | 16:22 |
| enyc | superm1: but when I apt-get source etc agaist 'trusty' deb-src's... the un-fixed code is still there. I'm guessing we simply need to re-pull fixes again now? | 16:23 |
| superm1 | enyc: well we filed an SRU to get a newer mythtv point release in | 16:23 |
| superm1 | but it's gone nowhere | 16:23 |
| superm1 | we have the fixes in our fixes PPA though that means | 16:23 |
| superm1 | https://launchpad.net/~mythbuntu/+archive/0.27 | 16:24 |
| enyc | superm1: sure, a 0.27.3 PPA -or- SRU would be good but thats' in some means separate...? we still should get precise-lts-0.25 and trusty-lts-0.27 security-fixed ? | 16:24 |
| superm1 | we try to point people at the PPA for now since SRU's don't seem to be happening | 16:24 |
| tgm4883 | the PPA is the recommended way | 16:25 |
| superm1 | https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1323391 | 16:25 |
| superm1 | is the bug we were trying to get going, you can see the lack of activity from people who did need to ack it | 16:25 |
| tgm4883 | we need to do a new request | 16:30 |
| tgm4883 | and I'm not 100% sure it's going to be an SRU | 16:30 |
| tgm4883 | (but neither does the release team :/ ) | 16:30 |
| enyc | tgm4883: does it 'help' that we now have missing security-problem etc.? | 16:32 |
| tgm4883 | probably | 16:32 |
| enyc | tgm4883: okay I'll leave you on that case =) | 16:45 |
| enyc | I'm getting bits and pieces and trying builds with ARM (armel, armhf, rpi(raspbian)) with opengl enabled etc.. I need to check when get to the other desk but I got the impression it can now build without needing to 'disable' opengl | 16:46 |
