| 13:33 | <PeteCool> | hmm, mythbackend dies for no visible reason |
| 13:35 | <PeteCool> | Chutt: are the contrast-setting-errors supposed to be fatal? |
| 13:36 | <PeteCool> | Chutt: also, are the constrast settings dependent on v4l1 (vs v4l2) ? |
| 13:36 | <Soopaman> | what are the lowest specs required to record/time shift with myth? |
| 13:39 | <Captain_Murdoch> | Soopaman: depends on the resolution you want to record at. I'm running on a Athlon 700 and record at 352x480, but can't record and playback at the same time. If I bumped the resolution down I could though. 352x400 seems to use about 75% cpu which gives me enough room to playback at the same time and not cause problems. |
| 13:40 | <PeteCool> | It depends on the hard disk speed too |
| 13:40 | <PeteCool> | I couldn't do much until I swapped drives around, increasing hdparm -tT scores by 10 mbytes/s |
| 13:42 | <Soopaman> | well I am hoping to use my dual xeon 450 scsi system as my new myth box |
| 13:42 | <Captain_Murdoch> | I run my storage directory over nfs. 100Mbit ethernet |
| 13:44 | <Captain_Murdoch> | Soopaman: you might only be able to do 320x240 with that, I'm not sure. check out the pvr hardware site to see what others say. http://www.goldfish.org/~mcooper/pvrhw/ |
| 13:45 | <Soopaman> | k |
| 13:49 | <Captain_Murdoch> | make sure you look at the rating field at the end. there are some people on there who try to do 640x480 mpeg4 on a P2-450 and then give it a rating of 1 cause it doesn't work. |
| 13:52 | <Soopaman> | yeah, it seems that rtjpeg is the best bet for my machine |
| 13:53 | <Soopaman> | or mjpeg |

| 13:58 | <moegreen> | PeteCool: have you ran it in gdb to get a backtrace? |
| 13:58 | <PeteCool> | not yet |
| 13:58 | <PeteCool> | I'm emerging gdb now |
| 13:59 | <moegreen> | did you recently update CVS? |
| 13:59 | <mdz> | mythbackend from 0.8 has been running continuously since 03/17 for me |
| 14:00 | <moegreen> | yeah, I haven't had any problems with it - PeteCool: if you did update CVS, make sure you have all the tables in your mysql database |
| 14:01 | <PeteCool> | I don't remember seeing a "U" besides mc.sql since last week |
| 14:02 | <PeteCool> | I just ran cvs.sql, and it still segfaults |
| 14:03 | <moegreen> | Make sure you have'CONFIG += debug' uncommented in your settings.pro - if not your backtraces won't be very helpful |
| 14:03 | <PeteCool> | yep |
| 14:03 | <PeteCool> | 11 meg source for gdb, this'll take quite a while to compile :( |
| 14:04 | <mdz> | I thought gentoo had binary packages now |
| 14:04 | <moegreen> | PeteCool: isn't there a precompiled package for your distro? |
| 14:04 | <mdz> | because installing gdb from source is just silly |
| 14:04 | <Chutt> | mdz, same reason the themes dir makes an executible, it's just there to trick qmake |
| 14:05 | <mdz> | Chutt: surely there must be a better way |
| 14:06 | <Chutt> | probably, but i didn't see one quickly |
| 14:06 | <Chutt> | it is the simplest possible c program, so it should compile relatively quickly :p |
| 14:08 | <vektor> | his name is chutt |
| 14:08 | <Chutt> | hey |
| 14:09 | <vektor> | hey hey! |
| 14:09 | <vektor> | Chutt: how's it going? |
| 14:09 | <Chutt> | pretty good |
| 14:09 | <vektor> | cool |
| 14:09 | <vektor> | been watching TV? |
| 14:09 | <Chutt> | was looking into stealing some of your cc code |
| 14:09 | <vektor> | duude |
| 14:09 | <vektor> | i recommend |
| 14:09 | <Chutt> | since someone submitted a pretty halfassed patch to mythtv |
| 14:09 | <Chutt> | but i figure if i combine that and your stuff, it'll be good |
| 14:10 | <vektor> | i did some work today on freetype rendering stuff |
| 14:10 | <vektor> | we badly need work on cc rendering though |
| 14:10 | <vektor> | rendering is the difficult part |
| 14:10 | <Chutt> | yup |
| 14:10 | <vektor> | i rewrote my freetype code |
| 14:10 | <Chutt> | cool |
| 14:10 | <vektor> | we had some bugs that were causing badness with cc rendering i think |
| 14:10 | <Chutt> | you're still rendering at higher res, though, right? |
| 14:10 | <vektor> | i'm trying to get your code now |
| 14:10 | <PeteCool> | gentoo doesn |
| 14:10 | <vektor> | rendering at higher res? |
| 14:10 | <vektor> | explain |
| 14:10 | <Chutt> | well, 4:4:4 |
| 14:10 | <mdz> | vektor: E: Couldn't find package tvtime |
| 14:10 | <PeteCool> | gentoo doesn't really have precompiled packages |
| 14:10 | <Chutt> | instead of 4:2:0 |
| 14:10 | <mdz> | vektor: :-( |
| 14:11 | <vektor> | mdz: dude, i know, simon has been slow, he's trying to be too 'correct' about it. |
| 14:11 | <vektor> | mdz: /msg coleSLAW and ask how it's going :) |
| 14:11 | <mdz> | vektor: tvtime: A high quality television application, 110 days in preparation. |
| 14:11 | <Chutt> | mdz, oh, got my zaurus yesterday =) |
| 14:11 | <mdz> | Chutt: nice, running OZ now? |
| 14:11 | <mdz> | (yet) |
| 14:11 | <Chutt> | not yet, no |
| 14:11 | <vektor> | Chutt: we render at 4:4:4 then have a 4:4:4-to-4:2:2 composting routine. |
| 14:11 | <vektor> | Chutt: i think that's faster anyway |
| 14:11 | <mdz> | there are a few things that bug me about it |
| 14:11 | <Chutt> | i'm still waiting for it to charge fully |
| 14:12 | <Chutt> | manual said 24 hours, so |
| 14:12 | <vektor> | is the mythtv cvs somewhere new since i last got it? |
| 14:12 | <mdz> | but it's the best thing going I think |
| 14:12 | <Chutt> | vektor, probably |
| 14:12 | <vektor> | :pserver:mythtv@mythtv.org:/var/lib/cvs |
| 14:12 | <vektor> | where is it now? |
| 14:12 | <Chutt> | cvs.mythtv.org |
| 14:12 | <vektor> | anonymous? |
| 14:12 | <vektor> | or stilly 'mythtv' ? |
| 14:12 | <Chutt> | same login info as before |
| 14:12 | <vektor> | ok |
| 14:12 | <vektor> | what's the password? |
| 14:12 | <Chutt> | mythtv, i think |
| 14:12 | <Chutt> | i dunno, though |
| 14:13 | <vektor> | ok :) |
| 14:13 | <Chutt> | it's in the docs |
| 14:13 | <vektor> | thanks |
| 14:13 | <vektor> | i'm getting it happily now. |
| 14:13 | <vektor> | btw, the bounding box code was wrong |
| 14:13 | <Chutt> | i don't think i've touched the font rendering stuff |
| 14:13 | <vektor> | in the code you had before |
| 14:13 | <vektor> | great |
| 14:13 | <Chutt> | probably was |
| 14:13 | <vektor> | then i can probably just plug this right in |
| 14:13 | <vektor> | and you'll kick ass. |
| 14:13 | <vektor> | cvs tvtime uses dscaler dlls now. |
| 14:14 | <vektor> | for many filters. |
| 14:14 | <Chutt> | noticed |
| 14:14 | <Chutt> | i updated a few days ago |
| 14:14 | <vektor> | cool :) |
| 14:14 | <vektor> | we also have code to not render when the window isn't visible. seems like a good idea. |
| 14:15 | <vektor> | have you been following the xfree86 political stuff? |
| 14:15 | <Chutt> | naw |
| 14:15 | <vektor> | damn, it's a blast :) |
| 14:15 | <PeteCool> | mdz: gdb compiled faster than MC with debug :) |
| 14:15 | <Chutt> | hrm |
| 14:15 | <Chutt> | i don't think any of my linux boxes have usb enabled in the kernel |
| 14:15 | <mdz> | PeteCool: gdb is written in C |
| 14:16 | <Chutt> | mdz, if i totally fuck up a flash of the zaurus, is there a way to recover? |
| 14:16 | <mdz> | Chutt: depends on how totally |
| 14:16 | <bigguy> | vektor: on debian-devel or where? |
| 14:16 | <mdz> | if you were to, say, zero out the whole thing, you'd be fucked |
| 14:16 | <mdz> | unless it was still up and running |
| 14:16 | <vektor> | bigguy: http://www.xfree86.org/pipermail/forum/ |
| 14:16 | <Chutt> | so the code to reflash it lives in what it flashes? |
| 14:16 | <Chutt> | not in a rom somewhere |
| 14:16 | <mdz> | correct |
| 14:17 | <mdz> | but there are two ways to flash it |
| 14:17 | <mdz> | you can either reflash the entire device, bootloader, flash util and everything |
| 14:17 | <mdz> | or just have it replace the kernel and initrd |
| 14:17 | <mdz> | I always do the latter because it's safer |
| 14:17 | <Chutt> | which is the oz way? |
| 14:17 | <Chutt> | seems that they just have a kernel and initrd image |
| 14:18 | <bigguy> | vektor: about the removal of Packard? |
| 14:18 | <mdz> | then it will do it the second way |
| 14:18 | <bigguy> | or the Open Governance thread? |
| 14:18 | <Chutt> | ok, cool |
| 14:18 | <mdz> | it does it based on what you put on the flash card |
| 14:18 | <vektor> | bigguy: the whole list has been interesting. |
| 14:18 | <Chutt> | ok |
| 14:19 | <Chutt> | need to get usb working, so i can talk to the thing first =) |
| 14:19 | <Chutt> | then i'll just wipe a cf card from my camera |
| 14:19 | <mdz> | I heard somebody got ejected from xfree86, but that's it |
| 14:19 | <Chutt> | you don't read slashdot like a good open source fanatic? |
| 14:19 | <mdz> | um, no |
| 14:20 | <Chutt> | heh |
| 14:20 | <mdz> | I go to slashdot when I want to see how a new browser renders a crazy table structure |
| 14:20 | <Chutt> | the upper right corner of the screen is darker than the rest of it |
| 14:22 | <Chutt> | moegreen, do you do an admin -kb of the .png files after you check them in? |
| 14:22 | <Soopaman> | vektor, how goes your project? |
| 14:23 | <vektor> | Soopaman: very well, you should try it out. |
| 14:23 | <vektor> | Chutt: I've been trying to catalog alot of performance problems and compatibility problems. |
| 14:23 | <vektor> | Chutt: some very interesting stuff on xvideo performance, btw. |
| 14:24 | <Chutt> | cool, got a page up somewhere? |
| 14:24 | <Soopaman> | vektor, url? |
| 14:24 | <vektor> | Chutt: http://tvtime.sourceforge.net/hardware.html |
| 14:24 | <vektor> | i have some things to add though that i've found out |
| 14:24 | <Chutt> | i heard there was some mythtv bashing in #livid the other day :p |
| 14:24 | <vektor> | ahaha |
| 14:25 | <moegreen> | Chutt: no I didn't, but I should have |
| 14:25 | <vektor> | it wasn't bashing :) |
| 14:25 | <Chutt> | heh |
| 14:26 | <Chutt> | vektor, i can confirm #13 -- you apparently can't draw stuff over the Xv output unless it would cover it completely |
| 14:26 | <Chutt> | well, at least going by bug reports i get |
| 14:27 | <vektor> | i can't believe how much that one sucks |
| 14:27 | <mdz> | Chutt: I am fixing up the external channel change / file descriptor thing |
| 14:27 | <Chutt> | mdz, great, thanks |
| 14:27 | <PeteCool> | how do I bakctrace a specific thread? I forgot |
| 14:28 | <Chutt> | vektor, and, cool that you've got nvidia working on that video corruption |
| 14:28 | <mdz> | PeteCool: "thread <thread no>", then "bt" |
| 14:28 | <vektor> | with overscan? |
| 14:28 | <PeteCool> | the error is in EncoderLink::isConnected() |
| 14:28 | <Chutt> | yeah |
| 14:28 | <vektor> | yeah, mark was really surprised that the bug exists :) |
| 14:28 | <mdz> | PeteCool: line number? |
| 14:28 | <Chutt> | well, with scaling, really |
| 14:28 | <vektor> | he says it exists with everything |
| 14:28 | <mdz> | that function really cannot segfault |
| 14:29 | <mdz> | unless your build is broken |
| 14:29 | <PeteCool> | mdz: 58 |
| 14:29 | <mdz> | PeteCool: your build is broken |
| 14:29 | <mdz> | oh, 58 is the first line of the function. the object could be null or something |
| 14:29 | <Chutt> | every can checkout moegreen's new playback stuff now =) |
| 14:29 | <PeteCool> | mdz: and how could I unbreak it? I didn't really change anything |
| 14:30 | <Chutt> | everyone, rather |
| 14:30 | <mdz> | PeteCool: go up one level and see if the object being called is null or otherwise invalid |
| 14:30 | <mdz> | PeteCool: make distclean and a full rebuild usually unbreaks it |
| 14:30 | <moegreen> | Chutt: Should I put the PlayBoxTransparency option on the appearance setup page? |
| 14:30 | <mdz> | and removing any old libmyths |
| 14:32 | <Chutt> | hmm |
| 14:32 | <Chutt> | yeah |
| 14:32 | <Chutt> | near the 'theme qt widgets' option |
| 14:37 | <Chutt> | moegreen, buncha errors about rectTopLeft being undeclared |
| 14:38 | <Chutt> | well, similar variables to that, too =) |
| 14:40 | <moegreen> | Chutt: yeah, I just noticed that - I forgot I made some changes, I'm working on it now :) |
| 14:42 | <Chutt> | heh, np |
| 14:46 | <Captain_Murdoch> | anybody have any ideas on how to throttle cpu usage for the function I have that scans the recorded file for commercials? right now I am playing around with having it read /proc/stat to get cpu idle time and if < 10% idle it will sleep every X frames (X changes depending on idle time) |
| 14:47 | <moegreen> | Chutt: ok, the changes are in, let me know if you have any other problems |
| 14:48 | <moegreen> | I just tested it w/ 640x480 resolution and everything scaled nicely |
| 14:48 | <Chutt> | i just rebooted my dev box |
| 14:48 | <Chutt> | so, i'll check it out shortly |
| 15:04 | <Chutt> | moegreen, it only seems to want to display two lines of description text |
| 15:05 | <Chutt> | and it's possible to move the cursor off of the program subtitles =) |
| 15:06 | <Chutt> | that's it for bugs i've seen |
| 15:08 | <moegreen> | ok, got the description text show more lines |
| 15:08 | <moegreen> | err to show more lines |
| 15:08 | <Captain_Murdoch> | Chutt: do you have any problems with me reading /proc/stat for cpu idle time inside of NuppelVideoPlayer.cpp? |
| 15:08 | <Chutt> | yup |
| 15:08 | <Chutt> | that's fairly hacky |
| 15:09 | <Captain_Murdoch> | lol, thought so. |
| 15:09 | <Captain_Murdoch> | can you think of any better way for me to throttle the cpu usage of the nice-ed thread that is searching for commercials. I don't think it's good for it to go full-bore even if it is niced. |
| 15:10 | <Captain_Murdoch> | I can either try to intelligently throttle it or just have it sleep a little every frame so it uses little or no cpu time but that means it takes the full length of a show to process it for commercials. |
| 15:11 | <Captain_Murdoch> | if I don't throttle it, and you have back to back recordings it uses as much cpu as is available and can cause problems with the 2nd recording. |
| 15:12 | <PeteCool> | Captain_Murdoch: why not pause it every 5~10 frames? It wouldn't use full cpu, but would be shorter |
| 15:13 | -!- | thor_ [] has quit [Read error: 113 (No route to host)] |
| 15:15 | -!- | thor_ [~thor@208.185.11.34] has joined #mythtv |
| 15:17 | <Captain_Murdoch> | well, even that could be too much. consider a machine where you only have 5-10% cpu free while recording (whether it's 1, 2, 3, etc. cards at the same time). I'll just eliminate the idle time calculation stuff and see how much it uses if I bump it up a frame at a time (ie, test it with sleeping every X frames, changing X for each compile/test cycle) |
| 15:17 | <moegreen> | Chutt: both of those fixes are in |
| 15:18 | <PeteCool> | if it's nice'd it'll still interfere with the recording (not freeing it's cpu usage fast enough?) |
| 15:18 | <Captain_Murdoch> | I've got it running right now on my Athlon 700 and it's recording and checking the previous show for commercials at the same time. still with 15% cpu free. 352x400 res w/ mpeg4 |
| 15:18 | <Captain_Murdoch> | PeteCool: it's already niced and I think it causes problems with framedrops sometimes since even through it's niced it will use all available cpu. |
| 15:19 | <thor_> | Captain_Murdoch, what about nicing it and putting it on a timer? |
| 15:19 | <Captain_Murdoch> | you mean tying it to some fps rate? |
| 15:20 | <Captain_Murdoch> | or setting a timer so it only does X fps |
| 15:20 | <thor_> | the latter |
| 15:20 | <thor_> | Have a Qt timer fire every 200 ms or something, process a few frames, and then go away |
| 15:22 | <Chutt> | thor, the playlists patch you posted seems to be working nicely |
| 15:22 | <thor_> | Chutt, I haven't seen any hiccups, but have not really played with it much |
| 15:23 | <Captain_Murdoch> | I would think it's be more desirable to just sleep for Y seconds every X frames (and less complex as well) |
| 15:23 | <Captain_Murdoch> | Y milliseconds that is. |
| 15:24 | <thor_> | That's probably equivalent ... although I seem to remember that Qt timers will *not* fire if there's no idle left on the CPU |
| 15:24 | <Chutt> | thor, one minor thing |
| 15:24 | <thor_> | ... |
| 15:24 | <Chutt> | when you create as a new playlist, could the current queue be replaced with a reference to the new list? |
| 15:25 | <Chutt> | instead of just keeping all the individual tracks in there |
| 15:25 | <thor_> | Uhm ... probably |
| 15:25 | <PeteCool> | mythbackend is still segfaulting :( |
| 15:26 | <Captain_Murdoch> | hmm, maybe I'll look into that then, thanks. |
| 15:26 | <Chutt> | and could there be a 'clear current queue' button in the popup for it? |
| 15:26 | <Chutt> | that'd clear out the current playqueue list, and also clear the (previous list) status |
| 15:26 | <thor_> | Definitely, |
| 15:27 | <Chutt> | those are the only two things i'd like to see before it goes into cvs =) |
| 15:27 | <Chutt> | and, really, this could all go in now, if you'd want |
| 15:28 | <thor_> | No ... let me make those changes and improve some of the places where things could easily be sped up ... then send you a tarball for final sanity check ... later tonight ... tomorrow |
| 15:28 | <Chutt> | ok |
| 15:29 | <thor_> | One other thing |
| 15:30 | <thor_> | if the Current Queue is full of stuff and you copy over from a playlist, you lose all that info ... was thining about storing what's in the queue when you push on a playlist so that when it pops off you go back to the way the Active Queue was before... thoughts" |
| 15:30 | <thor_> | thoughts? |
| 15:30 | <PeteCool> | my segfault shouldn't be coming from a locked device or something, since tvtime is able to read it alright |
| 15:31 | <Chutt> | yeah, that'd work |
| 15:31 | <PeteCool> | mdz: could you explain how to do " go up one level and see if the object being called is null or otherwise invalid" please? |
| 15:31 | <thor_> | may even persists if (default_playlist_pushed_storage or something) |
| 15:31 | <thor_> | persist it |
| 15:31 | <thor_> | using a different keyboard (lots of typos) |
| 15:32 | <Chutt> | heh |
| 15:34 | <mdz> | PeteCool: that would require too many prerequisite explanations I think |
| 15:35 | <mdz> | it sounds like either your build or your database is broken |
| 16:02 | <PeteCool> | one feature I'd like to have is to manually override one channel and anywhere recordings... sometimes I already saw it, sometimes I want to use the comp for something else |
| 16:02 | <PeteCool> | currently it removes the channel or anywhere status |
| 16:04 | <Captain_Murdoch> | PeteCool: just go into the playback screen and delete the inprogress recording. that will stop just that one instance of it and it will record next time it comes on. |
| 16:05 | <Chutt> | moegreen, that's something, does the new code mark in-progress recordings in red like the old stuff? |
| 16:06 | <moegreen> | Chutt: no...is that a flag in the ProgramInfo class? |
| 16:09 | <Chutt> | yeah |
| 16:09 | <Chutt> | i think conflicting is set to true |
| 16:10 | <moegreen> | ok, that should be easy to add - I'll do that a little later |
| 16:12 | -!- | nyquiljer [coyote@12-211-10-191.client.attbi.com] has joined #mythtv |
| 16:18 | <Captain_Murdoch> | in the new playbackbox code, I cursor right to go to the individual show listing on an item where there's only one show and I can cursor down off the 1 show. if I cursor down far enough, a scroll up arrow is drawn in the window on the right. |
| 16:19 | <Chutt> | captain_murdoch, he just fixed that a little bit ago |
| 16:19 | <moegreen> | Captain_Murdoch: I updated the CVS shortly after the initial import and that should hvae been fixed |
| 16:19 | <Captain_Murdoch> | ok, must have been after I updated cvs. sorry. |
| 16:19 | <moegreen> | np |
| 16:19 | <Chutt> | moegreen, don't quote me on that confliting being set to true or not =) |
| 16:19 | <Chutt> | i don't remember what i did |
| 16:21 | <Captain_Murdoch> | btw, nice job moegreen |
| 16:21 | <mdz> | Chutt: I believe it is conflicting |
| 16:25 | <moegreen> | if (pginfo->conflicting) _cg.setColor(QColorGroup::Text, Qt::red); |
| 16:25 | <Chutt> | moegreen, also, does it keep the same position if filllist is called? |
| 16:25 | <mdz> | it wouldn't be such a bad idea to add a flag for that rather than abusing conflicting |
| 16:25 | <Chutt> | yup |
| 16:27 | <moegreen> | Chutt: Yeah, it should keep the position. I have it reset the position after a delete though |
| 16:27 | <Chutt> | ok |
| 16:27 | <Chutt> | reset everything? |
| 16:28 | <Chutt> | or just the current position in that program's section |
| 16:28 | <Chutt> | heh |
| 16:28 | <moegreen> | currently it resets everything (goes back to all programs, top of the list) |
| 16:28 | <Chutt> | you reverted the i18n stuff, btw |
| 16:28 | <rmj> | chutt:I've got something to submit for the deinterlacing, its not as good as I'd hoped but after talking with vektor just now getting anything better is going to be a fair bit harder so I'd like to submit what I have now and investigate better options. Its a quality tradeoff at the moment, for people with progressive displays (or weird cloned setups like me) its probably worth having, you'll probably want to stick with the default mode thoug |
| 16:29 | <Chutt> | rmj, i was testing on my monitor, before |
| 16:30 | <Chutt> | moegreen, any way to make it not do that? =) |
| 16:30 | <moegreen> | probably - i just wasn't being very imaginative :) |
| 16:30 | <rmj> | yup, I've done some more testing here, I've noticed doubling my bit rate helps, the issue (I believe) is the |
| 16:31 | <rmj> | field jumping is chewing up lots of bits, couple this with the fact xvideo is scaling the half height image, the resulting mpeg4 artefacts are twice as visible. |
| 16:32 | <Chutt> | yeah |
| 16:32 | <Chutt> | makes sense |
| 16:32 | <Chutt> | did you fix rtjpeg? |
| 16:32 | <rmj> | (I've fixed it so it works with RTJpeg again also). Overall I still think its useful for users who need deinterlacing but linear blend doesn't cut it for them (linear blend is only really useful on very static material). |
| 16:32 | <Chutt> | cool |
| 16:33 | <Chutt> | yeah, send in a patch |
| 16:33 | <Chutt> | i'll get it applied |
| 16:34 | <rmj> | anyways its not on by default and it doesn't change too many code paths (I made one tiny tweak to the timing code in the player where there was an assumption that frame time was 40ms irrespective of fps in the file). |
| 16:35 | <Chutt> | well, assuming my box boots after this kernel recompile |
| 16:35 | <rmj> | I'll post the patch to -dev coz I wan't to send in some explanations on how to make it useful (like the mpeg4 bitrate issue). I've also included some modes which output full frames at 50fps but my CPU 1800 athlon is probably 20% too slow to keep up with them. I've also added in the nuppel area based deinterlacer which gives decent output at 25fps for sports material. |
| 16:37 | <rmj> | I'll have to think about how to get the next level of quality out of the thing, tvtime is very careful with the way it times output. There is also an issue with sending the half height fields with xvideo as you currently can't tell xvideo which is the top and bottom fields so it cant scale them appropiate (pushing the bottom field down half a scanline) [ vektor pointed this out to me], apparently directx can do this but xvideo can't yet. |
| 16:38 | <rmj> | I'm planning to look at vektor's directfb tv output code with a view to making directfb an output option for mythtv. |
| 16:38 | <PeteCool> | moegreen: going into "watch recordings" crashes mythtv for me |
| 16:38 | <Chutt> | you updated with cvs -z3 update -PAd |
| 16:38 | <Chutt> | and did a make distclean? |
| 16:38 | <rmj> | I think I may need to upgrade to a 5000 Athlon to acheive some of what I want though ;-) |
| 16:39 | <PeteCool> | -PAd ? |
| 16:39 | <Chutt> | guess not. |
| 16:39 | <Chutt> | gotta specifically tell cvs to download new directories |
| 16:39 | <Chutt> | else, it doesn't |
| 16:40 | <Chutt> | and he added some new directories. |
| 16:44 | <Captain_Murdoch> | does the new playbackbox allow deleting videos from the playback screen or just from the delete screen? 'D' on the playback screen isn't doing anything here. |
| 16:45 | <Ndiin> | Yeah, I was just looking at that code.. |
| 16:45 | <Ndiin> | P and D aren't bound |
| 16:46 | <Ndiin> | It can easily be fixed though |
| 16:47 | <Ndiin> | Just change the prototype of selected() to selected(int blah=0), make the slot emit 1 for Key_P, 2 of Key_D, check the int before the switch, etc. |
| 16:47 | <moegreen> | i wasn't aware of those key bindings |
| 16:48 | <Captain_Murdoch> | P & D work from both screens, P always plays, D always deletes |
| 16:48 | <Captain_Murdoch> | "worked" that is. :) |
| 16:57 | <mdz> | is the tree view in mythmusic a stock tree widget? |
| 16:58 | <Chutt> | yup |
| 16:58 | <mdz> | it doesn't accept enter as a synonym for OK like the rest of myth |
| 16:58 | <mdz> | s/OK/space/ |
| 16:58 | <Chutt> | hrm |
| 16:58 | <Chutt> | i thought i had fixed that |
| 17:00 | <mdz> | likewise for the buttons on the playback screen |
| 17:00 | <Chutt> | those i know are broken |
| 17:00 | <inman> | yeah, petecool was complaining about that a couple weeks ago. |
| 17:01 | <inman> | i looked at it, but i don't see the problem. |
| 17:01 | <Chutt> | the qtoolbutton stuff treats enter differently |
| 17:01 | <inman> | i know, but that seems like a bug to me. |
| 17:01 | <mdz> | can it be fixed in qtoolbutton, or do we need to derive a new one? |
| 17:02 | <Chutt> | we're already deriving a new button class for it |
| 17:02 | <inman> | i tried adding enter as an accel but i think i was only able to get one button to accelerate even given focus changes. |
| 17:02 | <inman> | what do we lose by using Button versus ToolButton, though? |
| 17:02 | <mdz> | ah, I see |
| 17:02 | <Chutt> | inman, looks diferent |
| 17:02 | <inman> | that is easily fixed, isn't it? |
| 17:03 | <inman> | toolbutton is derived of button; we just gotta do some extra legwork. |
| 17:03 | <moegreen> | Chutt: I'm not seeing 'conflicting' being set for programs that are being currently being recorded |
| 17:04 | <Chutt> | heh |
| 17:04 | <Chutt> | did i set it to conflicting in the old filllists? |
| 17:04 | <moegreen> | hmmm...I'll have to look |
| 17:05 | <Ndiin> | [ "conflicting" not found ] |
| 17:05 | <Ndiin> | in old playbackbox.cpp |
| 17:05 | <mdz> | Chutt: do you know if toggle() is the right slot for the toolbutton? |
| 17:05 | <Chutt> | like i said, i dunno what i had it doing |
| 17:05 | <Chutt> | mdz, for what? |
| 17:05 | <Chutt> | it getting selected? |
| 17:05 | <mdz> | what space does |
| 17:05 | <mdz> | and what enter should do |
| 17:06 | <Chutt> | not right off, no |
| 17:06 | <inman> | mdz: depends on the button |
| 17:06 | <moegreen> | heh, I see, it was being set in the ProgramListItem class - heh |
| 17:06 | <inman> | some buttons have state, some don't... |
| 17:06 | <Chutt> | moegreen, yeah, that's right |
| 17:07 | <mdz> | inman: for qtoolbutton of course |
| 17:08 | <-- nyquiljer | (coyote@12-211-10-191.client.attbi.com) has left #mythtv |
| 17:09 | <inman> | mdz: i'm not sure what you're asking. |
| 17:09 | <PeteCool> | Chutt: I did a cvs update -PAd but the new playbackbox still crashes... weird |
| 17:10 | <PeteCool> | with make distclean of course |
| 17:10 | <Chutt> | so, get a backtrace... |
| 17:12 | <PeteCool> | OT: does a binary with debug symbols run noticeably slower? |
| 17:12 | <mdz> | inman: qtoolbutton has an action that it takes when space is pressed. mythtoolbutton should take that same action when enter is pressed. |
| 17:12 | <Chutt> | of course it does |
| 17:13 | <mdz> | the question is whether it uses qbutton::clicked(), or toggle() |
| 17:13 | <Chutt> | probably clicked |
| 17:13 | <Chutt> | i think |
| 17:13 | <Chutt> | i dunno |
| 17:15 | <Chutt> | should be pretty easy to test if it's right, though |
| 17:15 | <Chutt> | either the pause button will stay depressed, or it won't =) |
| 17:15 | <mdz> | it looks like qtoolbutton doesn't override the keypress event handler, so it must be the same as for qbutton |
| 17:16 | <inman> | right, that's about where i stopped looking. |
| 17:16 | <inman> | should the delete-recordings screen update the disk-used after each deletion? |
| 17:16 | <PeteCool> | I think yes |
| 17:17 | <PeteCool> | I delete recordings to free space |
| 17:17 | <PeteCool> | mostly |
| 17:17 | <Chutt> | it does |
| 17:17 | <Chutt> | not immediately, though |
| 17:17 | <Chutt> | unless moegreen's not got that hooked up |
| 17:17 | <mdz> | but ah, in qbutton, enter -> clicked() and space -> pressed() |
| 17:18 | <inman> | so we just need to bind to both signals? |
| 17:18 | <moegreen> | it gets updated here |
| 17:18 | <mdz> | I'll just have enter send pressed() |
| 17:18 | <mdz> | and leave everything else the same |
| 17:18 | <moegreen> | right away :) |
| 17:19 | <PeteCool> | anybody tried >=mysql-4.0 yet? I'll be doing so soon, I think |
| 17:20 | <Ndiin> | eeek, thor, What's D bound to in your playlist patch? |
| 17:20 | <Ndiin> | because "I", jumps to the I's, "D", deletes the item.. |
| 17:21 | <Ndiin> | from the active queue |
| 17:24 | <PeteCool> | is it actually possible to scroll the list to jump to a particular song? |
| 17:24 | <PeteCool> | I didn't see that previously |
| 17:24 | <Ndiin> | the treelist widget does that, i think |
| 17:24 | <Ndiin> | but he's rebinding a few keys, as well |
| 17:24 | <PeteCool> | not when editing the playlist, but during playback |
| 17:24 | <Ndiin> | oh, no =( |
| 17:25 | <Ndiin> | Not yet, at least.. ;) |
| 17:25 | <Chutt> | hit next a bunch. |
| 17:25 | <Ndiin> | That crashes it.. |
| 17:25 | <Ndiin> | next repeatedly, that is |
| 17:25 | <Chutt> | nice that people report bugs like that. |
| 17:25 | <Chutt> | since it obviously doesn't do that for me. |
| 17:26 | <Ndiin> | I haven't reported it because I haven't looked into it yet |
| 17:26 | <PeteCool> | It never crashed for me |
| 17:26 | <PeteCool> | repeatedly = how many times? |
| 17:27 | <Ndiin> | Like 10 times in less than a second, or so. |
| 17:29 | <inman> | the epg seems to include channels from alternate inputs. i don't think it should. |
| 17:29 | <Chutt> | sure it should |
| 17:30 | <Chutt> | what if you just want to go mark something for being recorded? |
| 17:30 | <Ndiin> | thor_: hmm, Enter and/or Space don't close the Text entry box for playlist names |
| 17:30 | <PeteCool> | Chutt: the "watch recordings" crash doesn't happen in gdb |
| 17:30 | <inman> | what if you have two inputs? one sat and one cable. |
| 17:30 | <PeteCool> | I just have two windows with empty theme backgrounds |
| 17:30 | <Chutt> | petecool, that indicates that you didn't build it properly |
| 17:30 | <PeteCool> | but it still doesn't work |
| 17:30 | <Chutt> | and didn't install the new images. |
| 17:31 | <PeteCool> | the first time it wasn't a debug build |
| 17:31 | <PeteCool> | ok, let me check that |
| 17:31 | <moegreen> | PeteCool: the images should be in /usr/local/share/mythtv/themes/default/ |
| 17:31 | <moegreen> | maybe slightly different if your install location is different |
| 17:32 | <PeteCool> | I do have those |
| 17:32 | <PeteCool> | uparrow, filler, etc |
| 17:32 | <Chutt> | mdz, the alsa maintainer needs to get his act together. |
| 17:33 | <inman> | thanks for the p->play d->delete bindings, moegreen. |
| 17:33 | <Chutt> | i like how his source packages just refuse to compile |
| 17:36 | <moegreen> | PeteCool: so you're saying there is no text being written to your screen? |
| 17:36 | <PeteCool> | moegreen: exactly |
| 17:36 | <Chutt> | and no images. |
| 17:36 | <PeteCool> | moegreen: but I just dumped my CVS dir, starting from nothing just to be really sure that's not the problem |
| 17:37 | <PeteCool> | Chutt: only iulius's background, yes |
| 17:39 | <moegreen> | PeteCool: are you using the solids background or the default transparent backgrounds |
| 17:39 | <PeteCool> | moegreen: transparent |
| 17:39 | <moegreen> | at line 206 add cout << transShowing << endl; |
| 17:39 | <moegreen> | (to playbackbox.cpp) |

| 18:16 | <Chutt> | he doesn't need to handle them |
| 18:16 | <PeteCool> | or it might be because I have no shows yet |
| 18:16 | <Chutt> | qt does automatically |
| 18:17 | <Chutt> | time for kernel recompile #6 |
| 18:17 | <PeteCool> | yep |

| 18:19 | <Chutt> | =) |
| 18:20 | <moegreen> | does it now? |
| 18:20 | <Chutt> | i dunno, can't test it at the moment |
| 18:20 | <merf> | for some odd reason, every now and then (actually, pretty often) mythepg doesn't display any show information |
| 18:20 | <merf> | apparently it's either not connecting to mysql or can't get the data for some reason |

| 18:21 | <Chutt> | you can sort of test it by going into mythbackend/mainserver.cpp |
| 18:21 | <nyquiljer> | anyone have any opinions on what the best remote solution is, assuming i have a tuner card with no remote? i'm looking thru lirc.sf.net but tehres so many options. |
| 18:21 | <merf> | nyquiljer: the cheapest :) |
| 18:21 | <Chutt> | and comment out the three lines starting with 424 |
| 18:21 | <moegreen> | nyquiljer: I just use a Sony DirectTV remote that I had lying around |
| 18:22 | <Chutt> | where it decides if the thing's local or not |
| 18:22 | <nyquiljer> | moegreen: well, i mean the otehr end actually, the recieiver |
| 18:22 | <moegreen> | Chutt: which pathname to keep? mythtv:// ? |
| 18:23 | <Chutt> | yup |
| 18:23 | <nyquiljer> | moegreen: i want to be able to use one of the hundred of remotes thats laying around |
| 18:24 | <rmj> | chutt: forgot to mention a detail when I sent that pactch in, I haven't tried to make this work for hardware mpeg (as I cant test it), I've tried to leave it alone so it shouldnt affect it with deinterlace set to default (DEINTERLACER_NONE) but I'm not sure what will happen to hardware mpeg capture if deinterlacing is enabled. |
| 18:24 | <Chutt> | mjpeg |
| 18:24 | <moegreen> | nyquiljer: i got this a while ago: http://www.zapway.de/index1.htm, seems to work fine for this remote, I would have to assume others |
| 18:25 | <Chutt> | only silly people are using that, anyway |
| 18:25 | <merf> | does mythtv 0.8 use settings.txt or mysql to store its recording settings? |
| 18:25 | <moegreen> | Chutt: I see the problem with the missing subtitle information now |
| 18:25 | <nyquiljer> | moegreen: excellent, thanks very much. |
| 18:25 | <moegreen> | merf: mysql |
| 18:25 | <merf> | neat |
| 18:25 | <Chutt> | now? |
| 18:25 | <Chutt> | it went away for me with the version you checked in =) |
| 18:26 | <merf> | presumably if it couldn't connect to mysql it'd die, right? |
| 18:26 | <moegreen> | Chutt: yeah, I didn't see it when I have it running locally ... odd? |
| 18:26 | <Chutt> | i dunno |

| 18:57 | <Captain_Murdoch> | yes |
| 18:57 | <PeteCool> | Captain_Murdoch: did you ever those ads that are a black screen with a few white words in the middle? |
| 18:58 | <PeteCool> | Captain_Murdoch: those aren't skipped currently |
| 19:00 | <inman> | my problem with deleting programs after viewing them seems to be gone. |
| 19:02 | <PeteCool> | moegreen: great work :) |
| 19:03 | <Captain_Murdoch> | yeah. they get detected as blank frames, but shouldn't get marked as commercials because it checks time lengths between frames. |
| 19:09 | <Captain_Murdoch> | pete, moegreen, just noticed a bug where I deleted a program (3rd from the top I think) in "all programs" and when it redrew, it listed the top item (a currently recording item) twice. |
| 19:09 | <Captain_Murdoch> | oops., meant just moegreen on that. |
| 19:11 | <moegreen> | Captain_Murdoch: indeed ... I see that as well |
| 19:11 | -!- | choenig [] has quit [Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer)] |
| 19:12 | <Captain_Murdoch> | also getting segfaults around line 655 concerning i == curTitle after doing a delete occasionally. |
| 19:12 | <Captain_Murdoch> | in playbackbox.cpp, occurred first around 651 actually, then on 655 with the != |
| 19:15 | <PeteCool> | moegreen: I think the lower portion of the screen should be blank when you're choosing between program titles (all programs or something else) |
| 19:22 | <Captain_Murdoch> | moegreen: more debugging info. it segfaulted on 655 again with h = -2, i = -3, and curTitle = 0. I'm deleting from the all programs list if that makes any difference. |
| 19:23 | <Captain_Murdoch> | I think it may have to do with deleting the last episode of a show |
| 19:25 | <Captain_Murdoch> | don't have any more shows left to delete to test but I'm recording now and have a bunch of stuff setup tonight to record that I can delete after testing some other stuff. |
| 19:27 | <moegreen> | alright, i'm looking into it - thanks for the info |
| 19:28 | <Chutt> | blah |
| 19:28 | <Chutt> | stupid zaurus |
| 19:28 | <Captain_Murdoch> | ok, I can put more debug statements in later if need be once I've got more stuff to delete. |
| 19:29 | <PeteCool> | Chutt: doesn't work? |
| 19:29 | <Chutt> | works, but i'm having problems talking to it |
| 20:11 | <mdz> | Chutt: the alsa maintainer got preempted...there are several people working together on it now |
| 20:11 | <mdz> | the packages are in a lot better shape than they were 6 months ago |
| 20:13 | <Chutt> | current unstable doesn't compile at all |
| 20:13 | <Chutt> | well, it does if you go in and manually configure the source |
| 20:13 | <Chutt> | then manually do a make clean |
| 20:13 | <Chutt> | then run make-kpkg modules_image two or three times |
| 20:17 | <Chutt> | obviously, things will be better with 2.5 |
| 20:18 | <PeteCool> | did you try 2.5 yet? |
| 20:19 | <PeteCool> | it works okay here on some of my comps |

| 20:39 | <moegreen> | heh, np :) |
| 20:39 | <nziarek> | I am in the process of reinstalling Mandrake, so I can't play, but how theme able is it? |
| 20:39 | <moegreen> | it's not right now, but I'll be working on that |
| 20:40 | <nziarek> | sweet :) can't wait to see it in action - looks great, good work |
| 20:40 | <moegreen> | eventually you will be able to define all the graphics and the placement of everything on the screen |
| 20:41 | <nziarek> | great. wish this isntall would hurry |
| 20:44 | <PeteCool> | moegreen: your news screens look great in SasQuatch |
| 20:50 | <moegreen> | PeteCool: yeah? I think the text should be a different color - or the dropshadow needs to be extended some |
| 20:50 | <moegreen> | then again - maybe it's just my TV's brightness/contrast settings |
| 20:50 | <nziarek> | what are "news screens" |
| 20:51 | <moegreen> | nziarek: I assume he's referring to the Watch Recordings and Delete Recordings screens |
| 20:52 | <nziarek> | oh - thought I had missed MythNews on my break :) |
| 20:53 | <PeteCool> | nziarek: yeah news should have been "new" here |
| 20:54 | <nziarek> | Sorry - wasn't trying to be nit picky, I really did think I missed a new Module or something. I came back to 400 messages and didn't read them all :) |
| 20:55 | <moegreen> | news.google.com does show some promise for a news modules |
| 20:55 | <moegreen> | err module |
| 20:56 | <nziarek> | yeah, I love that site. if they had local, I'd never go anywhere else |
| 20:58 | <Chutt> | welp, that didn't work |
| 21:10 | <Chutt> | hrm |
| 21:10 | <Chutt> | md5's don't match the oz site |

| 21:58 | <vektor> | on the list? :) |
| 21:58 | <Chutt> | yeah |
| 21:58 | <vektor> | damn i miss uncivil messages :) |
| 21:58 | <Chutt> | he said 'I wasn't trying to record, just view tuner output.' |
| 21:58 | <Chutt> | among other things |
| 21:58 | <Chutt> | so in my reply, i say 'Watching tv is recording.' |

| 21:59 | <Chutt> | apparently, that wasn't civil |
| 22:00 | <NonToxic> | grumble... can mythtv use an older version's DB? |
| 22:00 | <Chutt> | no, it needs to be upgraded |
| 22:00 | <NonToxic> | ok |
| 22:00 | <NonToxic> | uhm, where is mysql's database stored? |
| 22:00 | * NonToxic | needs to do some RM'ing |
| 22:01 | <Chutt> | why delete it? |
| 22:01 | <NonToxic> | i've fubarred stuff... |
| 22:01 | <Chutt> | ah |
| 22:01 | <NonToxic> | I don't know enough about SQL to repair it, so I'm starting from scratch |
| 22:01 | <Chutt> | just run the 'mysql' command line client and 'drop database mythconverg;' |
| 22:01 | <NonToxic> | er, ok |
| 22:01 | <Chutt> | or something close to that |
| 22:02 | <NonToxic> | ok, there we go |
| 22:02 | <Chutt> | mdz, so, how the hell does one exit vi with this keyboard? |
| 22:02 | <NonToxic> | :wq :) |
| 22:02 | <Chutt> | on a zaurus |
| 22:02 | <NonToxic> | hrm |
| 22:02 | <Chutt> | need to hit escape, no escape button, escape button on the on screen keyboard doesn't work |
| 22:02 | <NonToxic> | pop the onscreen keyboard |
| 22:02 | <NonToxic> | oh |
| 22:02 | <Chutt> | yeah =) |
| 22:02 | <NonToxic> | that's weird... |
| 22:03 | <NonToxic> | zaurus or openzaurus? |
| 22:03 | <Chutt> | zaurus |
| 22:03 | <NonToxic> | use oz... |
| 22:03 | <Chutt> | i'm in the process of installing that |
| 22:03 | <NonToxic> | ok. |
| 22:03 | <Chutt> | it'd be _nice_ to edit resolv.conf, is all |
| 22:03 | * NonToxic | is running Familiar on his ipaq with opie instead of qpe |
| 22:03 | <NonToxic> | oh, that,. |
| 22:03 | <NonToxic> | heh |
| 22:03 | <NonToxic> | uhm, don't you ahve a serial console you could be doing this over? |
| 22:04 | <Chutt> | well, that would involve turning on telnetd |
| 22:04 | <Chutt> | which would involve editing inetd.conf, and that brings me back to how to exit vi =) |
| 22:04 | <Chutt> | ah well, i'll not need to in a few minutes |
| 22:04 | <NonToxic> | hm |
| 22:04 | <NonToxic> | er, serial console. |
| 22:05 | <NonToxic> | not telnet... |
| 22:05 | <NonToxic> | or does the zaurus not have serial? |
| 22:05 | <Chutt> | i don't have a serial cable, no |
| 22:05 | <Chutt> | i'm really just waiting for a cf card to finish emptying |
| 22:05 | <Chutt> | then i'll just transfer the oz stuff to that and reflash |
| 22:06 | <NonToxic> | ah |
| 22:06 | <NonToxic> | hmmm, I'm having problems with ./setup |
| 22:06 | <NonToxic> | it doesn't seem to be able to get a provider list... |
| 22:06 | <NonToxic> | tis a server down or something? |
| 22:07 | <Chutt> | not that i'm aware of |
| 22:07 | <NonToxic> | zap2it gave us a page with no service provider options |
| 22:07 | <Chutt> | running xmltv 5.8? |
| 22:07 | <NonToxic> | uhm, likely not |
| 22:08 | <NonToxic> | where do I get this xmltv? |
| 22:08 | <Chutt> | xmltv.sf.net |
| 22:08 | <NonToxic> | mk |
| 22:10 | <NonToxic> | god I hate sforge's download system |
| 22:14 | <mdz> | Chutt: the Cancel key is escape |
| 22:14 | <Chutt> | ah |
| 22:14 | <Chutt> | mdz, you're not on -users, still are you? |
| 22:15 | <mdz> | Chutt: I never was |
| 22:15 | <Chutt> | right |
| 22:23 | <Chutt> | mdz, broke my z once already =) |
| 22:23 | <Chutt> | had to reflash with the official oskit stuff |
| 22:26 | <PeteCool> | Chutt: to save and exit vim try ZZ |
| 22:26 | <PeteCool> | that's the only key set I know :) |
| 22:26 | <Chutt> | i use vim for all my dev work |
| 22:27 | <PeteCool> | can't you caps lock the on-screen keyboard? |
| 22:27 | <Chutt> | mdz, and whose idea was it to make ifdown usb0 also ifdown eth0 while it was at it? |
| 22:27 | <PeteCool> | then it'd be easier than :wq |
| 22:27 | <Chutt> | it's rather annoying =) |
| 22:30 | * NonToxic | <3 screenscrapers |
| 22:54 | <NonToxic> | hrrmm... |
| 22:54 | <NonToxic> | looks good,b ut the gui is horribly laggy... |
| 22:54 | <NonToxic> | I saw that both in freevo and mythtv. |
| 22:54 | <Chutt> | lower the res it's running at |
| 22:55 | <NonToxic> | mk.. |
| 22:55 | <NonToxic> | eh, how would I do that? |
| 22:55 | <Chutt> | tv->setup->appearance |
| 22:55 | <Chutt> | use the arrow keys to modify the resolution settings |
| 22:55 | <Chutt> | by default it resizes to full-screen |
| 22:56 | <-- nyquiljer | (coyote@12-211-10-191.client.attbi.com) has left #mythtv |
| 22:56 | <Chutt> | and since qt uses the render extension to alpha blend pngs like in the menu, it's slow |
| 22:56 | <Chutt> | it's quite snappy at normal tv-out resolutions, and that's all i really care about =) |
| 22:56 | <moegreen> | NonToxic: is there any one part of the interface or is it overall slow? |
| 22:57 | <NonToxic> | moegreen: the channel selection, mostly |
| 22:57 | <NonToxic> | Chutt: hm... rewind and fast forward aren't as fast as they used to be.. |
| 22:57 | <moegreen> | NonToxic: The program guide or while watching live TV? |
| 22:57 | <Chutt> | that bit's slow because of the category colors getting blended onto the background |
| 22:58 | <NonToxic> | moegreen: program guide is slow at 1024x768, watching live TV also tends to be a little bit slow in the controls |
| 22:59 | <moegreen> | NonToxic: if you're running the CVS version you can disable the alpha blending in the program guide |
| 23:00 | <Chutt> | heh |
| 23:00 | <Chutt> | the guy that just emailed (twice) about voice control |
| 23:00 | <Chutt> | emailed the freevo list a couple days ago |
| 23:00 | <Chutt> | basically the exact same thing |
| 23:01 | <NonToxic> | moegreen: eh... I actually mostly don't use the program guide, I gotta watch TV and that's it :) |
| 23:01 | <moegreen> | at first I thought he was drumming up support for help on his senior project |
| 23:01 | <NonToxic> | moegreen: so running it at 800x600 is fine |
| 23:01 | <NonToxic> | Chutt: some non-coder demanding voice control? |
| 23:01 | <Chutt> | no, someone working on a school project |
| 23:02 | <Chutt> | i'm not really sure what he wants from me or anything |
| 23:02 | <NonToxic> | ah... |
| 23:02 | <NonToxic> | moegreen: only mythbackend has to be running for it to record, right? |
| 23:02 | <Chutt> | yup |
| 23:02 | <moegreen> | that's correct |
| 23:03 | <NonToxic> | ok |
| 23:03 | * NonToxic | writes an initscript for it |
| 23:03 | <NonToxic> | can mythbackend be run in daemon-mode? |
| 23:03 | <Chutt> | yup |
| 23:03 | <Chutt> | there's a command line option for it to daemonize itself |
| 23:03 | <NonToxic> | which is? |
| 23:04 | <NonToxic> | wiseguy586@bluefire setup $ mythbackend -? |
| 23:04 | <NonToxic> | Invalid argument: -? |
| 23:04 | <Chutt> | i dunno |
| 23:04 | <NonToxic> | -h, -?, --help, all don't seem to work |
| 23:04 | <Chutt> | i don't think there's a help command =) |
| 23:04 | <NonToxic> | heh |
| 23:04 | <Ndiin> | -d |
| 23:04 | <Ndiin> | } else if (!strcmp(a.argv()[argpos],"-d") || |
| 23:04 | <Ndiin> | !strcmp(a.argv()[argpos],"--daemon")) { |
| 23:04 | <Ndiin> | ;) |
| 23:05 | <Chutt> | there's also a -l <filename> arg to log output to a file |
| 23:05 | <NonToxic> | ah, it appears to be -d |
| 23:05 | <Ndiin> | -p or --pidfile for pidfile output, as well, I see |
| 23:05 | <NonToxic> | Ndiin: ah |
| 23:07 | <Chutt> | hrm |
| 23:07 | <Chutt> | time to add someone else to the banned from posting to my mailing list list |
| 23:08 | <moegreen> | Chutt: what's the infraction this time? |
| 23:08 | <Chutt> | moegreen, read the most recent post =) |
| 23:09 | <NonToxic> | are there archives? |
| 23:09 | <Chutt> | two sets, actually |
| 23:09 | <Chutt> | both linked to from the webpage |
| 23:13 | <NonToxic> | Chutt: this on -dev, or -users? |
| 23:13 | <Chutt> | users |
| 23:13 | <Chutt> | "Jay <jsprenkl@zenobia.ettu.net>" |
| 23:13 | <NonToxic> | heh |
| 23:14 | <NonToxic> | heh |
| 23:14 | <Chutt> | now if only mailman's regexp ban_list stuff would work. |
| 23:15 | <NonToxic> | =/ |
| 23:15 | <NonToxic> | wh00t!! |
| 23:15 | * NonToxic | now has an initscript for myth |
| 23:16 | <Chutt> | just make sure that it'll restart the backend in case it goes dead |
| 23:17 | <NonToxic> | my machine isn't on all the time, so it's not a worry |
| 23:19 | <poptix> | Chutt: heh. |
| 23:21 | <Chutt> | poptix, i almost ordered a wintv-pvr this morning |
| 23:22 | <Chutt> | but i figured i just spent enough on a zaurus, so, didn't =) |
| 23:31 | <Ndiin> | hmm, Anyone know the sql syntax offhand to delete a specific entry? Say where chanid=1004? |
| 23:33 | <moegreen> | Ndiin: delete from <table> where ... I think |
| 23:33 | <Ndiin> | sounds right.. |
| 23:33 | * Ndiin | tries |
| 23:33 | <Ndiin> | yep, thanks |
| 23:35 | * Ndiin | does some channel housekeeping |
| 23:36 | <Ndiin> | There, much better |
| 23:36 | <Ndiin> | =) |
| 23:41 | <Chutt> | moegreen, heh, nice one line change to playbackbox.cpp |
| 23:41 | <Ndiin> | wow, weird.. just tried mythbackend's -l stuff.. it defaulted the permissions on it to 044, with set GID |
| 23:41 | <Ndiin> | no, SUID, rather, not gid |
| 23:41 | <Chutt> | looks like it opens it at 0644 |
| 23:42 | <Ndiin> | ---sr--r-- 1 root root 100 Mar 23 21:39 /var/log/mythbackend.log* |
| 23:42 | <Chutt> | in the code |
| 23:42 | <Ndiin> | yeah |
| 23:43 | <mdz> | Chutt: dunno what you mean about usb0 and eth0, works fine here |
| 23:43 | <Ndiin> | 0664 in the code.. strange. |
| 23:43 | <_shad> | Gah |
| 23:43 | <_shad> | 15 hours of work sucks |
| 23:43 | <moegreen> | Chutt: yeah, I figured I fire some credit Nathan's way :) |
| 23:43 | <mdz> | Chutt: are you using usbdnet or usbnet? |
| 23:43 | <Chutt> | mdz, whenever i unplugged the zaurus from the cradle, eth0 would go away |
| 23:43 | <Chutt> | usbnet |
| 23:44 | <mdz> | odd |
| 23:44 | <m0tion> | anyone here have any experience with the PerlQt library by any chance? |
| 23:45 | <mdz> | Ndiin: you're probably running old code |
| 23:45 | <mdz> | Ndiin: I fixed that a bit after the 0.8 release |
| 23:45 | -!- | bigguy [] has quit [Read error: 113 (No route to host)] |
| 23:45 | <mdz> | in CVS and in the debs |
| 23:48 | <Ndiin> | mdz: yep, the code I was looking at was a fresh co, just checked what was last installed ;) |
| 23:52 | <Chutt> | mdz, think you'll have time to do the recording profile stuff anytime soon/ |
| 23:57 | <mdz> | Chutt: maybe, I'm still a bit undecided about how it should look nda work |
| 23:57 | <mdz> | s/nda/and/ |
| 23:58 | <Chutt> | heh |
| 23:59 | <Chutt> | i think a list of scheduled recordings |
| 23:59 | <Chutt> | that when selected pops up a second screen of settings should work |
| 23:59 | <Chutt> | let you select the recording profile from a combo box |
