| 00:36 | <monkeyBox> | I have a TV connected to my nvidia card through the svideo port. What's a good way to have mythtv run on that tv while keeping my normal desktop (without stretching my desktop or anything?)? |
| 00:36 | <Timon> | try setting things up with yanc |
| 00:36 | <Timon> | yanc.sourceforge.net |
| 00:36 | <monkeyBox> | yanc? never heard of it... |
| 00:36 | <Timon> | I have a somewhat similar setup, except I have a second monitor that I run myth on |
| 00:37 | <Timon> | yanc == yet another nvidia controller |
| 00:37 | <extremis> | Whats a good window manager to use with mythtv? |
| 00:37 | <Timon> | I use kde |
| 00:37 | <Timon> | I believe Issac using kde as well. |
| 00:37 | <extremis> | kde is too bloated |
| 00:37 | <Timon> | But some people like fvwm, blackbox, widowmaker |
| 00:37 | <extremis> | blackbox sounds good |
| 00:37 | <Timon> | kde works, and I'm not hurting for space or memory |
| 00:39 | <monkeyBox> | If you're just using mythtv (and only mythtv) you don't really need a wm (thoretically) |

| 01:31 | <ribo> | hey i have an ATI tv card ( not all-in-wonder ) and all my channels are off, i.e. wrong numbers with the channels. and they all appear black and white. I can fine tune them for color in xawtv tho. |
| 01:31 | <Chutt> | ribo, check your kernel messages |

| 01:31 | <Chutt> | the tuner is getting autodetected as PAL, and you're in ntsc land |
| 01:31 | <ribo> | hmm |
| 01:31 | <ribo> | ok |
| 01:32 | <Chutt> | if you search the mythtv list archives for 'off by one' or 'canada cable' |
| 01:32 | <ribo> | so sould rmmod tuner; modprobe tuner ???=2 |
| 01:32 | <Chutt> | you should get detailed instructions on how to fix it |

| 01:33 | <extremis> | thats not the server is it? |
| 01:33 | <Chutt> | it's x server, with a client library |
| 01:33 | <Chutt> | mmm... reasons to use a real distribution :p |
| 01:34 | <extremis> | like ? |
| 01:34 | <Chutt> | anything but something where you compile everything yourself |
| 01:34 | <extremis> | Chutt: gentoo runs faster :) |
| 01:34 | <Chutt> | no, it doesn't. |
| 01:35 | <ribo> | you mean bttv card=2 ? |

| 01:35 | <Chutt> | ribo, no, tuner=2 |

| 01:37 | <extremis> | you use redhat? |
| 01:37 | <Chutt> | naw, debian |
| 01:38 | <ahbritto> | Does mythbackend do anything CPU intensive? I have 4 threads consumuing 20% cpu. |
| 01:38 | <extremis> | debian is good |
| 01:38 | <Chutt> | ahbritto, aside from compressing video? |
| 01:38 | <Chutt> | ahbritto, and doing the commercial finding stuff? |
| 01:38 | <ahbritto> | One pvr-250 active right now. |
| 01:39 | <Chutt> | if you have that enabled |
| 01:39 | <ahbritto> | Does that happen in real time or when recording is finished? |
| 01:39 | <Chutt> | finished |
| 01:39 | <ahbritto> | Is there anyway to tell it is doing that? lsof? |
| 01:39 | <Chutt> | are the threads reniced to something really low priority? |
| 01:40 | <ahbritto> | Three are reniced. |
| 01:41 | <extremis> | <spyderous> extremis: xft is part of xfree now |
| 01:41 | <ahbritto> | You might consider rewriting the env so a ps would show their status. |
| 01:41 | <Chutt> | dunno what the 4th is, then |
| 01:41 | <extremis> | so it seems that my system has it, I guess I should have ld -lft'd |
| 01:41 | <Chutt> | ahbritto, i've been meaning to add status to the status server that's running |
| 01:41 | <Chutt> | mini-http server that runs one port above the main backend server by default |
| 01:41 | <ahbritto> | only 3 processes now, so everything is working as expected. |
| 01:41 | <Chutt> | like, that's what it's for |
| 01:42 | <Chutt> | i just never got around to fleshing it out =) |
| 01:42 | <ahbritto> | :) |
| 01:42 | <ahbritto> | I got two pvr-250 working today. Thanks again for obsolting my TiVo! |
| 01:42 | <Chutt> | cool |
| 01:43 | <ca1vin> | what kind of cpu you using? |
| 01:43 | <ahbritto> | A little disappointed with PIP, but I am sure it will get better. |
| 01:43 | <Chutt> | ah, horribly bad colors and distortion on the pip? |
| 01:43 | <ca1vin> | I am hoping to be able to record on both my pvr250 and my dvb card |
| 01:43 | <ahbritto> | Pentium 4 1.8Mhgz |
| 01:43 | <ca1vin> | ah cool, thats about what I am running |
| 01:44 | <ca1vin> | Athlon XP 2200 |
| 01:44 | <ahbritto> | Chutt: yes on the colors and maybe on the distrotion. |
| 01:44 | <ca1vin> | right now I just record everything at 720x480 because I have the extra power and drive space |
| 01:44 | <ahbritto> | What I find really odd is on the mini-playback, there are interlacing artifacts. |
| 01:44 | <Chutt> | ahbritto, it's an ivtv problem -- it doesn't like capturing that small |
| 01:44 | <ca1vin> | that will probably end soon |
| 01:45 | <ca1vin> | once ivtv matures, these pvr250s will work awesome |
| 01:45 | <ahbritto> | hmm. |
| 01:45 | <Chutt> | i've got the same problem here if it uses the pvr250 as the pip card |
| 01:45 | <ahbritto> | Chutt: What do you have besides the pvr250? |
| 01:45 | <Chutt> | which is mainly why i've got it setup now with the wintv-radio as the secondary card |
| 01:45 | <ca1vin> | I hear the playtv pro works well |
| 01:46 | <ca1vin> | except for it not doing hardware encoding |

| 01:46 | <nooloo> | how you like the 350? |
| 01:47 | <nooloo> | been thinking of investing in one |
| 01:47 | <Chutt> | it's the same as the 250 for now |
| 01:47 | <ahbritto> | I was thinking a 3rd pvr250 would not work, but now I think it was the commerical stuff bogging things down. |
| 01:47 | <Chutt> | and probably will for quite some time |
| 01:47 | <nooloo> | hardware decoding not supported as of yet? |
| 01:47 | <Chutt> | ahbritto, yup -- it has to decode the video to get that information |
| 01:48 | <Chutt> | unlike in software encoding mode, where it can do a lot of it during recording |
| 01:48 | <ahbritto> | One idea I had, was using some signature stuff to capture videos from MTV and automatically titling them. I was kind of wondering how CPU intensive the commerical finding stuff was... |
| 01:49 | <Chutt> | it's really minimal compared to decoding the video |
| 01:50 | <ahbritto> | I have a nice video card, should it or will it use it in the future? |
| 01:50 | <ahbritto> | for decoding? |
| 01:50 | <Chutt> | like XvMC? |
| 01:51 | <ahbritto> | I heard of Xv, but not XvMC. Googling... |
| 01:51 | <Chutt> | xv is hardware accel for output, does colorspace conversion and scaling on the card. not too useful for just raw decoding |
| 01:52 | <Chutt> | xvmc can speed up mpeg2 decoding a bit, but driver support is essentially non-existant |
| 01:52 | <ahbritto> | i see. |
| 01:52 | <Chutt> | and i'm only aware of a couple hacked up copies of libmpeg2 that support it |
| 01:52 | <ahbritto> | I made a mistake that I have noticed other making. |
| 01:52 | <ahbritto> | I thought of mythTV as a PVR and wonder where the name came from even after reading the about. |
| 01:53 | <ahbritto> | Perhaps you should make it more clear that it is a convergence project? |
| 01:53 | <Chutt> | eh |
| 01:53 | <Chutt> | i dunno |
| 01:54 | <ahbritto> | MythTV is a homebrew PVR project ... |
| 01:54 | <ahbritto> | But it does so much more. |
| 01:54 | <Chutt> | i like being understated on there |
| 01:54 | <ahbritto> | =) |
| 01:54 | <Chutt> | i did update the 'i've only been working on it for a short time' |
| 01:54 | <ca1vin> | do you guys use myth for live tv? |
| 01:54 | * ahbritto | chuckles |
| 01:55 | <ahbritto> | Yes. |
| 01:55 | <ca1vin> | I don't think it is quite to that point yet for me |
| 01:55 | <ca1vin> | changing channels is just a little too slow for me |
| 01:55 | <ca1vin> | that may change with my dvb card once I have it setup |
| 01:56 | <ahbritto> | Scanning channels to look for content is a poor strategy for time management. ;) |
| 01:56 | <ca1vin> | very true |
| 01:56 | <ca1vin> | I just need to get out of the habbit |
| 01:56 | <ca1vin> | also the two channel bars kinda is lame |
| 01:56 | <ca1vin> | I wish I could turn the one off in my cable box |
| 01:57 | <Chutt> | bind a button to the info browsing key |
| 01:57 | <Chutt> | so you can look 'round without changing channels |
| 01:57 | <ahbritto> | Chutt: I think changing ps output to reflect status is a trival glib call, would you take patches? |
| 01:57 | <Chutt> | glib? |
| 01:57 | <Chutt> | :p |
| 01:57 | <ahbritto> | or libc |
| 01:57 | <Chutt> | sure |
| 01:57 | <Chutt> | mythbackend [commercial thread] or something like that? |
| 01:58 | <ahbritto> | Maybe my first myth patch. I will tell you if I change my mind. |
| 01:58 | <ahbritto> | yes. |
| 01:58 | <ahbritto> | If I can find the library it is trivial. |
| 01:58 | <ahbritto> | Otherwise, I think I have it in some of my old code and I can rip it out. |

| 02:16 | <ahbritto> | It has this comment: Does not work perfectly: `ps xwe` shows extra garbage. Trashes argv, don't call this till you don't need them. |
| 02:17 | <ahbritto> | Still want it? I am going to do more research and look for a standard implementation. |
| 02:17 | <Chutt> | i don't want it as is, no :p |
| 02:17 | <Chutt> | if anything, i'll want a patch to mythtv |
| 02:17 | <ahbritto> | I meant as a patch, with the current slight flaw? |
| 02:18 | <bline> | why would you parse ps output? |
| 02:18 | <Chutt> | i dunno |
| 02:18 | <ahbritto> | bline: this is for debugging, a user can do a 'ps' and find out what a thread is doing. |
| 02:20 | <bline> | all that information is in /proc, and is a _tiny_ bit more portable. |
| 02:24 | <ahbritto> | Chutt: I think your status port is a better and cleaner idea, making this unneccessary. I'll drop this idea. |
| 02:24 | <Chutt> | heh |
| 02:24 | <Chutt> | want to flesh that out, then? |
| 02:25 | <ahbritto> | I have a gripe list of maybe 12 things and growing... But maybe... Adding status to my gripe list. |
| 02:25 | <Captain_Murdoch> | Chutt, when I run lupdate to update the .ts files, it balloons my cvs diff file from ~1000 lines to double that. :) lots of "obsolete" and "unfinished" lines not related to my changes are added to the files.. |
| 02:25 | <Chutt> | yeah |
| 02:25 | <Chutt> | heh |
| 02:25 | <Chutt> | i haven't run it in awhile |
| 02:26 | <Captain_Murdoch> | the weekslot and advanced recording options screen seem to be working ok with current cvs though which is good. |
| 02:26 | <Chutt> | and i've changed some lines of text recently |
| 02:26 | <Chutt> | cool. |
| 02:26 | <Chutt> | i worried a little about breaking your stuff, but i figured you could handle it =) |
| 02:26 | <Captain_Murdoch> | so it's no big deal if I submit the change with the modified .ts an .qm files? probably do it wednesday night. |
| 02:26 | <Chutt> | sure |
| 02:26 | <Chutt> | no problem at all |
| 02:27 | <Captain_Murdoch> | ok. wasn't sure if I was doing something wrong with that huge diff. :) |
| 02:27 | <Captain_Murdoch> | the fix you made earlier on conflict res seems to have fixed the problem I was seeing as well coming back from the advanced options screen. |
| 02:28 | <Chutt> | were you going to the advanced options screen through the view scheduled screen? |
| 02:29 | <Chutt> | website updates were so much easier when i just used the date as the title |
| 02:29 | <Captain_Murdoch> | well, 2 ways to get there. if you go to the regular infodialog screen you can hit 'I' to get to the advanced screen. or if you're on the view scheduled screen and you hit 'I', if you're using weekslot (or an enum above allrecord really) then it takes you straight to the advanced screen instead of the infodialog. |
| 02:30 | <Chutt> | ah |
| 02:32 | <Captain_Murdoch> | and the text info widget at the top of the infodialog and the advanced screen comes from ProgramInfo::DisplayWidget so they both look the same. |
| 02:33 | <Captain_Murdoch> | moved around some of mdz's code to do that after talking with him about it. |
| 02:33 | <Chutt> | cool |
| 02:33 | <Chutt> | tomorrow night, you said? |
| 02:34 | <Captain_Murdoch> | yeah. |

| 02:34 | <Chutt> | heh |
| 02:36 | <Captain_Murdoch> | should I run lupdate with the -noobsolete option to get rid of unused stuff? |
| 02:36 | <Chutt> | doesn't really matter to me |
| 02:36 | <Captain_Murdoch> | ok, I'll leave it in for now in case it's handy for translators, we can remove it later easy enough. |
| 02:38 | <Chutt> | yeah |
| 02:38 | <Chutt> | anyway |
| 02:38 | <Chutt> | i'm going to bed =) |
| 02:40 | <Chutt> | hrm |
| 02:40 | <Chutt> | i may make the tv stuff a plugin, too |
| 02:40 | <Chutt> | make 'mythfrontend' really just be a frontend |
| 02:41 | <Chutt> | ah, no, i can't really do that |
| 02:41 | <ahbritto> | awww |
| 02:42 | <Chutt> | the rtjpeg stuff isn't set up to be a shared lib |
| 02:42 | <Chutt> | and i really don't want to get into fixing someone else's mmx code |
| 02:43 | <bline> | have you thought about using something like libxine? |

| 12:53 | <Chutt> | mechou, it's an extremely minor modification to the osd theme file |
| 12:54 | <mechou> | Do I just modify the ttf in the mythtv them directory? |

| 12:59 | <Chutt> | mechou, lemme know if you can't figure out what to do, but it should be pretty easy |
| 13:01 | <mechou> | On a somewhat related note, were does one store the "private" mythtv settings? In the users home directory in .mythtv? Do I just replicate the directory structure from /usr/local/share/mythtv? |
| 13:01 | <Chutt> | like, what would you consider private? |
| 13:01 | <Chutt> | all the settings are in the database, now |
| 13:01 | <Chutt> | aside from stuff like the menu files, and the themes |
| 13:03 | <mechou> | Chutt: I'm talking specifically osd.xml here and maybe mysql.txt. So it doesn't get overwritten every time I update from CVS or something... |
| 13:03 | <Chutt> | ah |
| 13:03 | <Chutt> | well, you can put mysql.txt in your ~/.mythtv/ |
| 13:03 | <Chutt> | dir |
| 13:03 | <Chutt> | i'm not sure if it'll handle the osd themes in there |
| 13:03 | <Chutt> | but it may |
| 13:04 | <stealthboy> | anyone know where in the mythtv/settings.pro i should add the --cpu=athlon-xp for my processor? |
| 13:04 | <Chutt> | where it says pentiumpro? |
| 13:04 | <stealthboy> | i thought that... that's march=pemtiumpro |
| 13:04 | <stealthboy> | i'll give it a try |
| 13:04 | <JAC> | rkulagow__, your message finally showed up |
| 13:07 | <rkulagow__> | yeah, i was just looking at the headers. (obviously they're not NTP synced), but www.snowman.net sat on it from 12:07 to 12:54 |
| 13:07 | <Snow-Man> | Man, I don't know wtf it's doing with it. |
| 13:07 | <rkulagow__> | before kicking it back to relay |
| 13:07 | <Snow-Man> | How's the delay from relay? |
| 13:08 | <Snow-Man> | like, how long does it tend to sit on relay> |
| 13:08 | <Snow-Man> | ? |
| 13:08 | <rkulagow__> | about 5 minutes if the clocks are synced |
| 13:08 | <Snow-Man> | heh, that's not bad. |
| 13:09 | <rkulagow__> | 12:54:26 to 12:59:29 |
| 13:09 | <rkulagow__> | that looks suspiciously like a 5 minute queue run |
| 13:09 | <Snow-Man> | Well, it is. |
| 13:09 | <Snow-Man> | But that really should be fine. |
| 13:10 | <rkulagow__> | and then it got to my company's MX at 12:58:44 (time warp!) |
| 13:10 | <Snow-Man> | heh. |
| 13:11 | <Snow-Man> | What I really don't understand is wtf mailman's doing. |
| 13:11 | <rkulagow__> | did you want to see that part of the header? |

| 13:12 | <rkulagow__> | relay got it at 12:07 (which is just about right for the time that i sent with the timezone) |
| 13:13 | <Chutt> | another 11 messages |
| 13:13 | <Snow-Man> | Errr, no, www got it at 12:07 from the log snippet show showed. |
| 13:13 | <Snow-Man> | s/show/you/ |
| 13:13 | <Snow-Man> | Then www gave it to itself at 12:54, and relay got it at 12:59 |
| 13:14 | <Chutt> | so, the delay is again www->www |
| 13:14 | <Chutt> | ie, mailman, apparently |
| 13:14 | <Snow-Man> | So it would seem. |
| 13:14 | <Chutt> | why'd you have to go and upgrade? =) |
| 13:14 | <Snow-Man> | Sorry! |
| 13:15 | <rkulagow__> | well, i cut the stuff prior to that which showed that it got to you +- timezone and non-synced clocks within about 2 minutes. so the "relay got it at 1207" was out of context. sorry. |
| 13:16 | * Snow-Man | does a dpkg-reconfigure mailman to force it to recompile all the python code.. |
| 13:17 | <Snow-Man> | I can't imagine that would do it though, and there hasn't been any load on www, so that wouldn't make sense either, but, hey, why not. |

| 13:20 | <Chutt> | sure |

| 13:20 | <Snow-Man> | hfh is on -dev, phooey is on -commits, and zathras is on -dev it looks like. |
| 13:20 | <Snow-Man> | Actually phooey is on -users too I think. |
| 13:20 | <Snow-Man> | Their nameservers are fucked up or something. |
| 13:20 | <Snow-Man> | I can't host -t mx their hosts. |

| 13:21 | <Snow-Man> | No. :( |
| 13:21 | <Snow-Man> | They all look rather bored actually. |
| 13:22 | <Snow-Man> | I'm about to nuke the entire mail queue on www. |
| 13:22 | <Chutt> | the entire queue? |
| 13:22 | <Snow-Man> | It's just a whole bunch of '(host map: lookup (phooeybane.net): deferred)' stuff. |
| 13:22 | <rkulagow__> | billytwowilly: check gatos.sourceforge.net |
| 13:22 | <Snow-Man> | Chutt: www won't have anything that's working. |
| 13:22 | <Chutt> | ah |
| 13:22 | <Snow-Man> | Shit piles up on it when it can't do MX lookups on the domains. |
| 13:23 | <Snow-Man> | But there aren't any 'real' messages in the queue. |
| 13:23 | <Snow-Man> | oh, that's done, and I've restarted it. |
| 13:23 | <billytwowilly> | rkulagow__: when I tried that out I got a whole bunch of unesolved symbol errors, both with cvs and with latest release |
| 13:24 | <billytwowilly> | wrong version for my kernel? |
| 13:24 | <rkulagow__> | billytwowilly: well, they're the ones that will know more about it since it's their code. i don't have one, so i have no idea where the problem may be. |
| 13:24 | <Chutt> | snow-man, http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2003-June/029673.html |
| 13:24 | <Snow-Man> | Jun 18 13:21:50 2003 (22240) delivery to thomas@thusemann.dyndns.org failed with code -1: ignore |
| 13:24 | <Snow-Man> | erm. |
| 13:25 | <mdz> | oh, man this theora stuff is hopeless |
| 13:25 | <Chutt> | hm? |
| 13:25 | <Chutt> | new stuff on -dev? |
| 13:25 | <mdz> | So the vorbis codec provides blocks of audio intended to be played back at a fixed rate, and theora codec provides a series of frames intended to play at a fixed rate. It's the player's job to output that data in way that the relative rates match well enough to maintain sync. |
| 13:25 | <mdz> | same stuff, I'm just getting around to reading the rest of the thread |
| 13:26 | <mechou> | billytw: I compiled it, but it still "worked" even thou it gave me unresolved symbols... |
| 13:26 | <billytwowilly> | mechou: when I got insmod ati_remote the unresolved symbols stuff shows up there too, did you have that problem? |
| 13:27 | <billytwowilly> | rkulagow__: I must be missing my manners today. I forgot to say thank you. Thanks. |
| 13:27 | <mechou> | billytw: yeah, I only get one unresolved message. |
| 13:28 | <billytwowilly> | mechou: hehehe, I get 11;) |
| 13:28 | <jkolb> | mdz: How is that different from, say, mpeg2? Ogg doesn't have timestamps on the packets to help a decoder keep them in sync? |
| 13:28 | <billytwowilly> | mechou: what distro/kernel version are you running? |
| 13:28 | <mdz> | jkolb: it's basically AVI |
| 13:28 | <mechou> | billytw: I didn't try this, but you might want to try modprobe --force |
| 13:28 | <Snow-Man> | My qfiles/in directory is empty atm. |
| 13:28 | <jkolb> | I've never had to work with avis. |
| 13:29 | <Chutt> | snowman, ah well, worth a shot :( |
| 13:29 | <Snow-Man> | yea. |
| 13:29 | <mdz> | jkolb: they do not map well to the reality of video capture |
| 13:29 | <Chutt> | your soundcard doesn't give you a static rate |
| 13:29 | <Snow-Man> | Personally I think it probably *is* mailman's fault. |
| 13:29 | <mechou> | billytw: mdk9.1, 2.4.21 |
| 13:29 | <Snow-Man> | wd |
| 13:29 | <Snow-Man> | erp |
| 13:29 | <mdz> | jkolb: right, it has no timestamps. it assumes that the frame rate and audio sample rate stay perfectly fixed for the entire stream |
| 13:30 | <jkolb> | Ok, that was all I needed to know. |
| 13:30 | <Chutt> | that you drop no frames |
| 13:30 | <Chutt> | it's basically crap. |
| 13:30 | <mdz> | no frame drops, perfect DSP clock |
| 13:30 | <jkolb> | Sounds like it. |
| 13:30 | <Snow-Man> | I've got a bunch of recent shit in qfiles/out, probably from when I shut down the sendmail daemon. |
| 13:30 | <Chutt> | and it makes ogg/theora pretty damn useless, imo |
| 13:30 | <mdz> | yep |
| 13:30 | <Snow-Man> | Gonna restart the mailman stuff |
| 13:30 | <billytwowilly> | mechou: darn. same distro and version as me.. modprobe doesn't find the module.. strange.. |
| 13:30 | <mdz> | unless you're converting a bunch of PNGs into an animation with no audio |
| 13:30 | <Chutt> | theora inside of .nuv would work, though =) |
| 13:31 | <Chutt> | which will happen eventually |
| 13:31 | <Chutt> | well, once that guy gets an encoder into libavcodec |
| 13:31 | <jkolb> | So when are we going to see animated gif inside .nuv? |
| 13:31 | <mdz> | half the point of theora, for me anyway, would be to have a decent standard A/V container |
| 13:31 | <Chutt> | snowman, it's weird that it doesn't process anything for a long time |
| 13:31 | <mdz> | if it's not going to be that, I have very little interest in it |
| 13:32 | <Chutt> | then goes and does 10 or 20 |
| 13:32 | <Snow-Man> | Chutt: Yeah... That thread would seem to imply that it's sendmail stalling but I kinda doubt that's really it. |
| 13:32 | <mechou> | billytwo: doesn't find the module?!!? Where do you stash the object file? |
| 13:33 | <Chutt> | i wonder if there's a 'make mailman suck' option i need to toggle or something |
| 13:33 | <Snow-Man> | haha |
| 13:33 | <ahbritto> | Chutt: I don't know your buffer strategy.. Is it optimal having the buffer on the same disk as the archive? |
| 13:33 | <Chutt> | shouldn't really matter |
| 13:34 | <ahbritto> | I thought I saw the buffer and an output file both growing, I didn't understand why. |
| 13:35 | <Chutt> | live tv -> recording while watching? |
| 13:35 | <ahbritto> | most likely. |
| 13:35 | <Chutt> | it currently just dumps the data to both, and continues playing the live-tv buffer |
| 13:36 | <Chutt> | not optimal, of course =) |
| 13:36 | <billytwowilly> | mechou: I followed the readme file. no make install in that.. tells you to insmod ati_remote channel_mask=16 |
| 13:36 | <ahbritto> | ok. adding to my list of things I might touch. |
| 13:36 | <billytwowilly> | I think it may be working though.. /dev/input/mice is there.. |
| 13:36 | <billytwowilly> | I just have to figure out how to get it to work with lircd;) |
| 13:37 | <mechou> | billytwo: yeah, I think you out to be almoste there... |
| 13:38 | <billytwowilly> | mechou: thanks for the help. Is there a ready made file for this remote for lircd and mythtv? |
| 13:38 | <mechou> | Damn keyboard! |
| 13:39 | <Chutt> | snowman, ah well, once we move stuff over, i'll be able to look into it better |
| 13:39 | <Snow-Man> | I'm getting more familiar with this stuff. |
| 13:39 | <Chutt> | anyway, those 3 are disabled |
| 13:39 | <Snow-Man> | qfiles/out appears to be running along pretty decently now. |
| 13:39 | <Snow-Man> | ok. |
| 13:39 | <mechou> | Billytwo: Dunno, didn't check. I'm not reall using my ati remote. I'm using an old ANIR remote. |
| 13:40 | <billytwowilly> | oh ok. I'll rumage around then;) thanks. |
| 13:41 | <Snow-Man> | list 22733 94.4 4.6 7880 5980 ? R 13:30 10:28 qrunner /var/lib/mailman/bin/qrunner --runner=OutgoingRunner:0:1 -s |
| 13:41 | <Snow-Man> | err. |
| 13:41 | <Snow-Man> | That thing is going like gangbusters now. |
| 13:42 | <Chutt> | heh |
| 13:42 | <Chutt> | check that users list |
| 13:42 | <Snow-Man> | But nothing is getting logged. |
| 13:42 | <Chutt> | other people have reported that.. |
| 13:42 | <Chutt> | i think |
| 13:42 | <Chutt> | i dunno, i just skimmed it, mainly |
| 13:44 | <mdz> | billytwowilly: why would you want to use lircd with the ATI remote? |
| 13:45 | <mechou> | mdz: that's a good point... |
| 13:45 | <mdz> | it shows up as a keyboard and mouse |
| 13:45 | <mdz> | and you're done |
| 13:45 | <Snow-Man> | Chutt: Where'd you see it? |
| 13:45 | <Chutt> | i don't remember :( |
| 13:46 | <Chutt> | something about OutgoingRunning going crazy |

| 13:49 | <billytwowilly> | mdz: how would I configure that? |
| 13:49 | <mdz> | billytwowilly: if you're using /dev/input/mice, you don't. it just works. |
| 13:49 | <billytwowilly> | mdz: very cool. thanks for the info. |
| 13:50 | <billytwowilly> | mdz: so all they keys and such are already bound correctly? |
| 13:50 | <mdz> | billytwowilly: "correctly"? |
| 13:50 | <billytwowilly> | they are already bound to useful stuff or do I have to configure that? |
| 13:50 | <billytwowilly> | chan up/down vol up/down works? |
| 13:50 | <mdz> | where there is a natural keysym for the key, it is bound to that |
| 13:50 | <billytwowilly> | ok. thanks |

| 13:57 | <Snow-Man> | The stupid thing appears to be looping through the mail queue... |
| 13:57 | <Chutt> | learning python? =) |
| 13:58 | <Snow-Man> | Probably in a moment, just strace right now. |
| 13:58 | <mdz> | "/var/lib/mailman/bin"? |
| 13:58 | <mdz> | that sounds...wrong |
| 13:59 | <Snow-Man> | Blame the maintainer. He's on my shitlist already. |
| 13:59 | <mdz> | jkolb: that just adds bindings for the XF86* keysyms (the "fast forward", "rewind", "web" and buttons like that) |
| 14:00 | <mdz> | which mythtv doesn't use |
| 14:01 | <jkolb> | Yes, but it gives the scan codes that the remote sends, and you can remap the keysyms that are sent, correct? |
| 14:01 | <jkolb> | Or am I way off here? |
| 14:02 | <jkolb> | s/scan codes/keycodes/ |
| 14:03 | <mdz> | it gives the keycodes that X gets for those extra keys |
| 14:03 | <mdz> | and assigns them to keysyms |
| 14:04 | <mdz> | not much uses them |

| 14:06 | <Chutt> | just got it |
| 14:07 | <Chutt> | haven't gotten anything else from the 1:00 hour, though |
| 14:08 | <jkolb> | Right, but now he has the list of keycodes to assign to whatever keys he likes for his setup. |

| 14:18 | <Chutt> | ah well |
| 14:24 | <billytwowilly> | srry to bother you guys once again, but I'm doing the setup step of my install and there is no selection for canada cable. |
| 14:24 | <Chutt> | there's no such thing as canada cable. |
| 14:25 | <billytwowilly> | so if I'm from canada and I'm on cable what setting would I choose? |
| 14:25 | <Chutt> | us-cable? |
| 14:25 | <billytwowilly> | I tried that in xawtv and the table is off because all the channels are greyish/fuzzy.. |

| 14:26 | <billytwowilly> | thanks. |
| 14:26 | <Chutt> | there's a section called 'where did canada-cable go' in the howto |

| 14:27 | <billytwowilly> | Chutt: I see it thanks. |
| 14:38 | <billytwowilly> | anyone know how to manually set my tv tuner card in /etc/modules.conf? I really don't want to sign up for a mailing list if I don't have to. |
| 14:38 | <Chutt> | just search the mythtv mailing list archives |
| 14:39 | <billytwowilly> | oh. the faq recommends joing some v4l mailing list.. |
| 14:39 | <bigguy> | That steve guy has responded 2 times about the Playing MythTV files in Windows and both times he says the same thing pretty much. "I can play mine fine since they are mpeg2" Like everyone has a pvr x50 now |
| 14:49 | <billytwowilly> | If I want modules loaded at boot time where should I put the insmod commands? |
| 14:49 | <stealthboy> | billtwowilly: which distribution are you using? |
| 14:49 | <billytwowilly> | mandrake 9.1 |
| 14:51 | <extremis> | hrm, recompile qt and made sure it could load xft and the font is still ultrasmall |
| 14:51 | <stealthboy> | it didn't auto-configure the tuner card? |
| 14:52 | <billytwowilly> | it did, but it's giving me borked settings. I found an email telling me how to fix it. I just need to know where to put the modules loading commands so they are loaded at boot. |
| 14:52 | <billytwowilly> | apparently it usually is detected as type 5 when it is type 2, whatever that means;) |
| 14:53 | <extremis> | any ideas on what I should look out to find out why the font is really small when running /usr/share/mythtv/setup ? |

| 15:24 | <extremis> | any plans on making the mythtv mailing list archives searchable? |

| 15:27 | <Chutt> | snowman, have you upgraded python recently? |

| 15:27 | <Snow-Man> | why? |
| 15:27 | <Chutt> | and i fixed it by upgrading python |
| 15:27 | <Snow-Man> | haha. |

| 15:29 | <rkulagow__> | yep. |
| 15:29 | <bigguy> | mechou: no the people that want it all compile themselves |
| 15:29 | <Conaz> | So you modded the already nice case mod |
| 15:30 | <bigguy> | mechou: akaik |
| 15:30 | <extremis> | rkulagow: got pics? |
| 15:30 | <Snow-Man> | How's the mailing list doing now? |
| 15:30 | <Snow-Man> | Someone wanna check the delay on 3EF0BD31.30102@web.de? |
| 15:30 | <rkulagow__> | yes, i'll post a message to the mailing list with a link to some suitable scaled-down pics or something. |
| 15:31 | <mechou> | bigguy: yeah, I know. But all those dependencies... |
| 15:31 | * Snow-Man | does some hackish shit to mailman and prays. |
| 15:31 | <GreyFoxx> | mechou: Just think about how much you'll learn about how your system interoperates by installing it all :) |
| 15:32 | <jkolb> | Praying doesn't work until you've also sacrificed first. |
| 15:32 | <Chutt> | snowman, i haven't gotten that yet |
| 15:32 | <Snow-Man> | blah, it might be backlogged on relay. |
| 15:32 | <jkolb> | You have two choices: Let out the magic blue smoke from some components, or cut yourself on the case and bleed a bit. |
| 15:33 | <Snow-Man> | Damnit, it's still doing the fucking lookup I think. |
| 15:33 | <extremis> | so, has anyone else experienced the small font problem when setting up mythtv for the first time (/usr/share/mythtv/setup) ? |
| 15:34 | <mechou> | GreyFox: Heh, I don't want to be going grey ;-)... Yeah, bad pun. |
| 15:34 | <Snow-Man> | Why the fuck is it that with the shunt directory empty, mailman isn't chewing up assloads of CPU anymore? |
| 15:35 | <GreyFoxx> | mech :P |
| 15:36 | <bigguy> | it's really not that difficult to compile the hard part is fixing broken code if your aren't a programmer |

| 15:36 | <GreyFoxx> | Especially if you are using asystem other than the coder and they set it to except specific environments |

| 15:54 | <Chutt> | heh |
| 15:54 | <Chutt> | mythweb doesn't use the startdate/enddate fields very much |
| 15:55 | <rkulagow__> | yow! i didn't realize how cruddy the tuner in my Bt878 card was until i put two pvr-250 |
| 15:55 | <rkulagow__> | 's in the same box. |
| 15:56 | <Conaz> | Much nicer picture I take it |
| 15:56 | <mechou> | rkulagow: which bt878 tuner did you have? |
| 15:57 | <extremis> | anbritto: it is |
| 15:57 | <rkulagow__> | had an avermedia tv98, and i've got two pinnacle pctv pro's. there's no comparison in quality; the pvr250 is in a different league. |
| 15:58 | <Conaz> | hmm, I guess I'll see how my haugpauge 190 compares to the 250 |
| 15:58 | <mechou> | rku: you're sure this PQ is solely due to the tuner, not HW encoder (just as example)? |
| 15:59 | <ahbritto> | extremis: I don't have it on my system. |
| 15:59 | <hfb> | rkulagow__: That's interesting. I have an Avermedia TV98 and also a Pinnacle PCTV Pro. I'm waiting for the prices to come down on the PVR 250/350 though. :) |
| 15:59 | <Conaz> | Prices are pretty low on the 250 atm I thought |
| 16:00 | <Snow-Man> | Chutt: heh. |
| 16:00 | <mechou> | I thought PVR250 is ~$99 after rebates... |
| 16:01 | <hfb> | mechou: Is it? |
| 16:01 | <hfb> | mechou: I will have to look in to it. |

| 16:02 | <rkulagow__> | PQ is subjective (well, you can objectively measure it of course, but that's a different show); at the same bitrate, in my opinion, comparing the picture quality of the PVR250 @ 480x480 4Mbps and the TV98@480x480 @ 4Mbps, the PVR looks much nicer. better shielding, better tuner, whatever. it just looks nicer. i was surprised. |

| 16:51 | <Conaz> | Must just be the SCO kind then ;) |
| 16:51 | <Chutt> | so some people told him what to install |
| 16:51 | <Chutt> | and he comes back with an email with the _next_ missing dependency |
| 16:52 | <Chutt> | so i say to look at the docs, as there's a section for mandrake (which he's using) |
| 16:52 | <Snow-Man> | haha |
| 16:52 | <Chutt> | so he says something like 'Quote from the previous message: "I followed all the instructions.. "' blah blah blah |

| 16:59 | <Snow-Man> | And well, it used to sync off of phoenix... |

| 17:49 | <rkulagow__> | snowman: pool.ntp.org is a good NTP source. (http://fortytwo.ch/time/) uses round-robin DNS, so you don't need to look up specific hosts. |
| 17:50 | <billytwowilly> | sorry to be bothorsome once more, but I'm looking at my SPDIF connector on the back of my computer (One spot) and my TV has two RCA connectors that look the same. Does SPDIF=RCA? how do I get stereo sound with only one connector? |
| 17:51 | <thor_> | mini-stero plug (like on walkman headphones) to rca adaptor cable |
| 17:51 | <thor_> | that's two channel |
| 17:51 | <thor_> | if you have a Dolby 5.1/DTS receiver |
| 17:52 | <thor_> | then you need a real spdif to coax cable |
| 17:52 | rkulagow | rkulagow__ Jun 18 17:52:15 <hfb> rcaskey: http://linuxpr.com/releases/5807.html |
| 17:52 | <mdz> | rkulagow__: it's fine unless you care about security :-) |
| 17:52 | <thor_> | (and spdif passthrough in the soundcard) |
| 17:52 | <billytwowilly> | thor_: I'll be plugging it into an old tv for now, but eventually I want to use the SPDIF out on my computer to hook it up to my 5.1 receiver. |
| 17:53 | <thor_> | for now, you want mini-stero plug to rca cable (available everywhere) |
| 17:54 | <billytwowilly> | ok, so do I need some special plug eventually to get stereo sound out of the SPDIF connector on my computer? |
| 17:54 | <thor_> | lot's of ifs |
| 17:54 | <thor_> | if its really a spdif connector |
| 17:55 | <thor_> | if the soundcard/on-board soundcard supports it |
| 17:55 | <thor_> | if linux supports that card |
| 17:55 | <billytwowilly> | I have the biostar m7ncg nforce2 motherboard |
| 17:55 | <thor_> | I have a BMW three series |
| 17:55 | <billytwowilly> | doesn't help me.. oh I get it;) slow day;) |

| 17:56 | <thor_> | http://www.b,wusa.com |
| 17:56 | <billytwowilly> | there's a link if you want to take a look. It says SPDIF there.. |
| 17:56 | <billytwowilly> | and the nforce drivers for linux supposedly support SPDIF out. |
| 17:57 | <thor_> | ok, so if you can sort through the ifs ... then you need to go to a decent computer store and/or order online a (non-optical) spdif to coax (thick rca) cable ... if your recevier takes coax 6 channel input |
| 17:58 | <billytwowilly> | Ok, thanks for the help. I appreciate the help |

| 19:03 | <rkulagow__> | thor: are you here? |
| 19:04 | <thor_> | yes |
| 19:04 | <thor_> | why do I get the feeling you found a spot where return doesn't work? |
| 19:06 | <rkulagow__> | no, better than that. selected some songs to add to my playlist, went to play music, mythmusic started to paint the screen, started a audio thread, but then hung during the screen paint. nothing is actually filled in other than the borders. once the one song finished playing that was it. mythfrontend is in gdb, but i don't know that that will help. |
| 19:07 | <thor_> | hmmm |
| 19:07 | <thor_> | cvs of how recently? |
| 19:08 | <rkulagow__> | also, it seems like the "cycle visualizer" sometimes picks the same one, because i have to hit the 6 again (sometimes more than once) before it picks something different. |
| 19:08 | <rkulagow__> | wait one on the CVS please. |
| 19:08 | <rkulagow__> | i guess i wasn't current, because playbackbox was just updated during a cvs update. |
| 19:08 | <rkulagow__> | let me recompile and see. |
| 19:09 | <thor_> | if it's only playbackbox that probably won't help |

| 19:14 | <rkulagow__> | sorry - had to listen to "YMCA" with anya. i've had it happen before though; i believe it happens when i start mythmusic and add a song to the default playlist, then go and start playing it. |

| 19:37 | <zaheer> | i use nvtv |
| 19:38 | <mechou> | zaheer: what tv-out chip do you have on your nvidai card? |
| 19:39 | <zaheer> | chrontel i think its called |
| 19:39 | <mechou> | zaheer: my problem is that when my computer boots, the tv geometry is not centered, amongst other problems. |
| 19:40 | <zaheer> | my problem is i cant get it to fill my tv scrren completely without going over |
| 19:41 | <mechou> | zaheer: I'm talking even "text mode." My chip is a philips, has vivo (a mistake, BTW) and I think is really PAL even though it can do NTSC. |
| 19:42 | <mechou> | zaheer: Does nvtv help your overscan problem once you're in X? |
| 19:43 | <zaheer> | i dint even get text mode on my tv |
| 19:44 | <mechou> | What gen is your nvidia card? Geforce2/3, etc. |
| 19:45 | <zaheer> | geforce2 mx |
| 19:46 | <Captain_Murdoch> | Advanced recording options screen is now turned on in CVS if anybody cares.. :) |
| 19:47 | <mechou> | hmm, not sure if geforce2 mx can boot w/ tv text mode. I'm not sure even if the card bios supports text mode, that would be a sufficient condition... |
| 19:48 | <thor_> | Captian_Murdoch, woo hooo! |
| 19:48 | <thor_> | Captain, as well |
| 19:48 | <zaheer> | ya, i just got the cheapest tv-out card that linux supported |
| 19:48 | <Captain_Murdoch> | can do weekslot recordings now as well as easily change the recording profile used for a particular sheduled recording. |
| 19:49 | <thor_> | did you really do something to xmlparse.cpp ? |
| 19:49 | <Captain_Murdoch> | mdz did most of the work a while back I think, I just picked it up and debugged. |
| 19:49 | <Captain_Murdoch> | yeah, had to modify it to pick up the weekslot png file. |
| 19:49 | <zaheer> | so different progs can use different compression levels? |
| 19:49 | <Captain_Murdoch> | for hte epg |
| 19:49 | <thor_> | ah |
| 19:49 | <thor_> | got you |
| 19:49 | <mechou> | zaheer: so here's the question: can you script tv geometry adjustments in nvtv (i.e. w/o manual intervention)? |
| 19:49 | <Captain_Murdoch> | zaheer, yes. the functionality was there, but no easy way to change it other than modifying the db directly. now you can do it onscreen. |
| 19:50 | <zaheer> | Captain_Murdoch: : cool! |
| 19:50 | <Captain_Murdoch> | thank mdz for that, I just debugged and tested it some. |
| 19:50 | <zaheer> | mechoi: once u have the geometry u want, scrren u like using nvtv...it can be saved |
| 19:51 | <zaheer> | i would like ramon roca's manual recording app in cvs :) |
| 19:51 | <Chutt> | it's going in eventually |
| 19:52 | <zaheer> | much more useful than the current manual record |
| 19:52 | <mechou> | zaheer: so when you start your comp, you call a script like "nvtv -t savedsettings.txt"? |
| 19:53 | <zaheer> | mechou: i dont knwo the syntax, but yes u can run all the stuff commandline |
| 19:53 | <zaheer> | once u know what to give nvtv |
| 19:53 | * Captain_Murdoch | is glad that Myth defaults to setting the video window to the gui size now for when he's watching tv while coding. |
| 19:54 | <Chutt> | heh |
| 19:54 | <Chutt> | there's no other setting now :p |
| 19:55 | <Captain_Murdoch> | I like it this way. I can watch a video at 800x600 while surrounding the video window with aterm's. |
| 19:56 | <mechou> | zaheer: "nvtv -h" doesn't mention anything about saved settings, especially about the geometry offsets. Any chance you can give the relevant command line option? |
| 19:56 | <Chutt> | it makes a lot more sense, really |

| 20:00 | <Chutt> | yeah |
| 20:00 | <Chutt> | i know =) |
| 20:01 | <thor_> | or backend is running, so I'm not sure if the library "install" took |
| 20:05 | <zaheer> | mechou: i think ure right about geomtry offsets...nothing in nvtv to allow u to set it automatically by looks of it |
| 20:06 | <mechou> | zaheer: yeah thanks. I thought this was the case. I can run everything else cmdline but to shift screen left/right/up/down no joy. |
| 20:10 | <mechou> | zaheer: I'm wondering if this geometry offset can be manipulated in XF86Config-4 in the display section. |
| 20:10 | <zaheer> | dunno the nvidia driver options... |
| 20:13 | <mechou> | What I really need is to find a way that the nividia card boots centered text mode on TV. Then there won't be a need for nvtv for me... |

| 22:09 | <stealthboy> | i'm getting a compile error in the current MythGallery; looks like a missing QT function: iconview.cpp:464: no matching function for call to `QDir::refresh()'. Anyone else getting this? |
| 22:10 | <GreyFoxx> | dedicated to just this: And maybe some diskless frontends |
| 22:11 | <mechou> | speaking of diskless, anyone done a diskless (BE&FE) mythtv box? |
| 22:11 | <thor_> | stealthboy, looks like there's some Qt 3.1.x stuff in there |

| 22:12 | <stealthboy> | thor_: should I bring this up on -dev? |
| 22:12 | <mechou> | GF:what CPU & memory size? |
| 22:12 | <thor_> | stealthboy, it's new code, and Don (?) probably hasn't realized it's 3.1.x |
| 22:12 | <stealthboy> | thor_: ok, i'll mail him |
| 22:12 | <GreyFoxx> | 256Megs of ram, and a 800mhz cpu on the front end. So far I've only played mp3's and videos via mplayer |

| 22:13 | <stealthboy> | k, thx |
| 22:13 | <Chutt> | if i remember, i'll look at it |
| 22:13 | <mechou> | GF: you using pxeboot? |
| 22:14 | <GreyFoxx> | Nope, a boot floppy with lilo and kernel options to do NFSROOT |
| 22:14 | <mechou> | GF, well that works ;-) |
| 22:14 | <rcaskey> | IBM has the best commercials these days |
| 22:14 | <GreyFoxx> | /usr/src/linux/Documentation/nfsroot.txt or something like that. |
| 22:15 | <rcaskey> | I need to get me some of that pixie dust stuff |
| 22:15 | <GreyFoxx> | I was thinking of etherboot which I use to use for a web cluster |
| 22:15 | <GreyFoxx> | but I didn't feal like making the rom so I went the lilo route :) |
| 22:15 | <thor_> | rcaskey, just don't get it from Global Services |
| 22:15 | <GreyFoxx> | I'm statically coding the IP to it right now, but it wouldn;t be hard to do via tftp/dhcp+nfs |
| 22:16 | <rcaskey> | thor_: nahh, I think I'll find a local dealer |
| 22:17 | <mechou> | GF: between me and my family we've got 6 comps. Administration is a PITA. I'm just not so sure diskess clients would make my life any easier... |
| 22:17 | <thor_> | rcaskey, I worked for IBM Business Consulting for about a week once |
| 22:17 | <rcaskey> | mechou: my family boxen all run xp except for my woody server and my sid laptop |
| 22:18 | <mechou> | rcaskey: how does xp make your life any easier? |
| 22:18 | <rcaskey> | roaming user profiles |

| 22:20 | <ahbritto> | All the processes are in nanosleep. But one is std::__simple_alloc |
| 22:20 | <mechou> | rcaskey: my problem is keeping all sowtware between boxes in sync |
| 22:21 | <rcaskey> | whats your problem in specific? |
| 22:22 | <GreyFoxx> | I don't suppose there is any change of basic mouse support will make it into MythTV ?:) |
| 22:22 | <thor_> | it might |
| 22:22 | <Ripp> | d*it how can I get xft out of my list for emerge world -u? |
| 22:23 | <mechou> | rcaskey, well, for example, just talking my own comps, I've got to keep my "dedicated" HTPC and desktop box in sync since I like doing the same things on both. |
| 22:23 | <GreyFoxx> | I've got a wireless rf mouse/keyboard from gyration and the 3d ouse would be nifty to use |
| 22:23 | <thor_> | GreyFoxx, I'm fiddling with on-screen button presses for touchscreen support |
| 22:24 | <thor_> | a mouse is a fairly trivial extension of that |
| 22:24 | <mechou> | rcaskey: and we all know how temperamental HTPC apps can be... |
| 22:24 | <rcaskey> | if its just two machines just install everything twice or use a comming /usr dir |
| 22:24 | <rcaskey> | you could mount /usr via nfs right? |
| 22:24 | <GreyFoxx> | Cool. I'd love to use this thing for it too. That way I can keep the mouse and keyboard together :) |
| 22:24 | <thor_> | don't hold your breath ... but I am fiddling with it |
| 22:24 | <mechou> | yup, do that already.... |

| 22:26 | <GreyFoxx> | After I rewrite it it might be usable :) |
| 22:27 | <thor_> | GreyFox, that's all you need (up, down, left, right) plus a button for Space/Enter and one for ESC. Sounds like you're done (no need for an onscreen pointer) |
