| 00:06 | <Captain_Murdoch> | heh... :) Just "warned" my wife about the new feature I'm putting into Myth that will allow me to tell Myth to only keep the latest X episodes of a show whether they've been watched or not. |
| 00:07 | <Chutt> | cool. |
| 00:07 | <Chutt> | can someone politely tell vernon graner that he's most likely just incompetent? |
| 00:07 | <Chutt> | =) |
| 00:07 | <Captain_Murdoch> | once I had the auto-expire thread in there it was easy to add. |
| 00:09 | <Captain_Murdoch> | I could tell him but it might not be too polite. I think I had mine up and working in about 30-40 minutes. I had even precompiled the kernel in a directory on my nfs server so it was ready to copy into place. Only had to compile once. |
| 00:09 | <Chutt> | heh |
| 00:10 | <Chutt> | you don't need a kernel recompile for the ivtv driver |
| 00:10 | <Chutt> | which is the funny thing |
| 00:10 | <Captain_Murdoch> | only problem I found was that for some reason it has problems in the machine I put it in if I try to save across the network while recording off the 250. if I save to local disk it works great. |
| 00:10 | <Chutt> | bitrate too much for it? |
| 00:10 | <Captain_Murdoch> | yeah, I didn't compile for that. I upgraded something else also. |
| 00:11 | <Captain_Murdoch> | nah. I bumped bitrate down. |
| 00:11 | <Chutt> | ah |
| 00:11 | <Chutt> | nice work on the delete stuff, btw |
| 00:11 | <Captain_Murdoch> | actually upgraded the computer now that I think about it. that was when I got my current frontend system and had the whole thing up and running with Myth in a few hours the night I got it from UPS. |
| 00:13 | <Captain_Murdoch> | I'm going to rework that a little I think. right now it runs on every backend. I was thinking about it today and am probably going to just run the thread on the master and have it send commands to the backends (since it already can do that since it calls handledeleterecording in mainserver). the "only keep X episodes" code only runs on the master. |
| 00:13 | <Chutt> | that'd probably be a little cleaner |
| 00:13 | <Chutt> | but, is it going to poll the backends for free space? |
| 00:13 | <Captain_Murdoch> | yeah cleaner, but then I have to get a list of all backends and then poll each. |
| 00:13 | <Captain_Murdoch> | yep |
| 00:13 | <Chutt> | how often? |
| 00:14 | <Captain_Murdoch> | that's configurable |
| 00:14 | <Chutt> | there's a list of backends already in there |
| 00:14 | <Captain_Murdoch> | I think I set a spinbox so it could do 1 minute or up to 60. |
| 00:15 | <Chutt> | defaulting to..? |
| 00:15 | <Captain_Murdoch> | yeah, I can loop through the list, so each time I loop through the list I get the freespace for that backend and then if I have to delete I do the queries and auto-expire then onto the next backend. |
| 00:15 | <Captain_Murdoch> | 1 minute I think. |
| 00:15 | <Chutt> | prefer it something higher |
| 00:15 | <Chutt> | every 10 minutes? |
| 00:15 | <Captain_Murdoch> | ok. will commit in a few. I was just testing the keep X episodes stuff and it's ready to commit as well. |
| 00:15 | <Captain_Murdoch> | I did wipe cvs.sql as you asked also. |
| 00:16 | <Captain_Murdoch> | do you make the 0.10-to-0.11.sql files when you release? |
| 00:16 | <Chutt> | you need to make the expirer-thread detached |
| 00:16 | <Chutt> | no, i do them as i go along |
| 00:16 | <Captain_Murdoch> | does the scheduler detach? |
| 00:16 | <Chutt> | hmm |
| 00:16 | <Captain_Murdoch> | I thought I copied that code. |
| 00:16 | <Chutt> | ya know, i don't think it does |
| 00:16 | <Chutt> | ah well, doesn't matter |
| 00:16 | <Chutt> | it's going to be running all the time |
| 00:16 | <Captain_Murdoch> | this thread never ends. |
| 00:16 | <Captain_Murdoch> | yeah |
| 00:17 | <Captain_Murdoch> | I put a sleep in the thread for 10 seconds now before it starts checking the first time because it was sending messages before the mainserver was up and able to handle them. |
| 00:19 | <Captain_Murdoch> | check frequency changed to 10 minutes by default but settable from 1-60. |
| 00:20 | <Chutt> | damn it |
| 00:20 | <Chutt> | fucking incompetent xmltv people |
| 00:21 | <bline> | what happened |
| 00:21 | <Chutt> | they changed the fucking tv_grab_na format again |
| 00:21 | <bline> | heh |
| 00:21 | <Chutt> | how fucking stupid can you be |
| 00:21 | <Chutt> | not you |
| 00:21 | <Chutt> | sorry |
| 00:21 | <bline> | maybe you should email the author |
| 00:22 | <Chutt> | i'm going to |
| 00:24 | <Captain_Murdoch> | is the guy back-porting 0.6 stuff he's working on? |

| 00:25 | <Captain_Murdoch> | was wondering why my "cvs diff" wasn't reporting any differences in the autoexpire.* files and realized I never actually checked them out in my dev cvs tree. :) |
| 00:26 | <Captain_Murdoch> | I keep one tree to work on and another to do commits off of. |
| 00:26 | <bline> | isn't that what branching is for? :) |
| 00:26 | <Chutt> | hrm |
| 00:27 | <Chutt> | i suppose i shouldn't threaten a fork in emailing him |
| 00:27 | <Chutt> | or swear at him too much |
| 00:27 | <bline> | is it the first email you've sent him? |
| 00:27 | <Chutt> | i've spoken to him a long time ago |
| 00:28 | <Chutt> | 8 or 9 months, i think |
| 00:28 | <bline> | I mean about the current issue |
| 00:28 | <Chutt> | no |
| 00:30 | <Ndiin> | Is there any special way that a plugin has to be linked or exported or something for Qt to resolve a symbol from it with QLibrary::resolve()? |
| 00:31 | <Ndiin> | I have an extern "C" { int init() {return 42;} }, linked as a shared.. but qt refuses to resolve the damn thing ;P |
| 00:31 | <Ndiin> | (its attached to a lot more code, but thats the relevant part) |
| 00:32 | <Chutt> | look at how all the other plugins work. |
| 00:32 | <Ndiin> | I am.. and from what I see, it should be working. |
| 00:33 | <Chutt> | ok: |
| 00:33 | <Chutt> | Hi, I'm the author of MythTV. |
| 00:33 | <Ndiin> | hi, I know that. |
| 00:33 | <Chutt> | I'd just like to thank you for breaking programmatic parsing of the output of tv_grab_na for the second time in as many weeks. |
| 00:33 | <Ndiin> | lol |
| 00:33 | <Ndiin> | xmltv problems again? heh |
| 00:33 | <Chutt> | This really gives me a warm fuzzy feeling, knowing that I have to rewrite code because you don't know what a micro version number is. |
| 00:33 | <mikegrb> | :-) |
| 00:34 | <mikegrb> | I'm going to email them... w/o mentioning mythtv so I can be as unfriendly as I please w/o them thinking less of mythtv and its developers |
| 00:34 | <bline> | sick em :) |
| 00:34 | <Chutt> | naw |
| 00:34 | <Chutt> | don't |
| 00:35 | <mikegrb> | I shall comply with your wishes master |
| 00:35 | <mikegrb> | ;-) |
| 00:36 | <mikegrb> | heh it turns out mythtv is recording something, *that* is why the recompile is taking so frick'n long |
| 00:40 | <bline> | hmm mplayer-advusers is not a very active list, no one has posted on it sense I posted a bug this morning |
| 00:46 | <Captain_Murdoch> | people who keep up to date with CVS are going to hate me, two "make distclean"'s required in 24 hours. :) |
| 00:47 | <Chutt> | i've done that more often that 24 hours |
| 00:50 | <Captain_Murdoch> | I just started running the script which rebuids the separate trees for my main backend (Athlon) and frontend (Celeron). Now I can go to bed and run "make install" in the morning. :) |
| 00:51 | <Chutt> | heh |
| 00:51 | <mikegrb> | and I just finished recompiling it |
| 00:52 | <Chutt> | bah |
| 00:52 | <Chutt> | i'll have to recompile on my nehemiah |
| 00:52 | <Chutt> | which takes longer than anything you guys have |
| 00:52 | <Captain_Murdoch> | mikegrb: only new thing added is ability to say "Only keep X episodes" of a show. so don't update unless you want that. |
| 00:52 | <Chutt> | so :p |
| 00:52 | <Captain_Murdoch> | I usually compile on my fast Athlon with the source tree on my nfs server. Then just run "make install' on each backend/frontend. |
| 00:53 | <mikegrb> | heh and I want it exactly for what you mention in commits log... keeping x# of trading spaces |
| 00:53 | <bline> | distcc :) |
| 00:53 | <ahbritto> | Captain_Murdoch: No distcc? |
| 00:53 | <Captain_Murdoch> | that's the exact show I warned my wife about earlier. :) |
| 00:53 | <ahbritto> | Captain_Murdoch: No ccache? |
| 00:53 | <Captain_Murdoch> | ahbritto: don't want to compile on a backend that could be recording. |
| 00:53 | <ahbritto> | How about niced? |
| 00:54 | <Captain_Murdoch> | still don't want to. :) |
| 00:54 | <ahbritto> | And ccached locally? |
| 00:54 | <Captain_Murdoch> | never messed with ccache honestly. |
| 00:55 | <ahbritto> | Its great! Makes most "make clean" "make" very fast. |
| 00:55 | <mikegrb> | with the new hard drive and rankings I finally let my wife record buffy... 2 hrs every day. Got it set to low rank so just about anything will win. This autodelete will be nice for trading spaces and buffy |
| 00:55 | <Captain_Murdoch> | mikegrb: also you can set her shows to record at lower resolution/bitrate. :) that's what I do with my wife's daily 2.5 hours of shows. |
| 00:58 | <mikegrb> | Captain_Murdoch: hadn't considered that.... I may very well do that. Now I just got to get XV working on my laptop, switched from redhat to gentoo on it and it is the only thing that has been a pain |

| 09:03 | <choenig> | hi |
| 09:03 | <sfr> | do you know about qt programming, by chance? |
| 09:04 | -!- | hfb [] has quit ["Client exiting"] |
| 09:04 | <choenig> | i've done a little, but not that much that I can be of help, but whats your prob? |
| 09:04 | <sfr> | choenig: a little is more than i have :) |
| 09:05 | <sfr> | i want to use 2x xmltv sources, nxtvepg and tv_grab_de |
| 09:05 | <sfr> | but both of them are using different timezons |
| 09:07 | <sfr> | i want mythfilldatabase to calculate the timezone offset dynamically instead of just checking the TimeOffset setting in mythconverg. |
| 09:08 | <sfr> | so far i defined two QTime objects, ltime and utctime, |
| 09:09 | <sfr> | now by subtracting utctime.hour() from ltime.hour() i get the timezone offset, but only if ltime is in localetime and utctime is in UTC format, right? |
| 09:10 | <choenig> | seems to be |
| 09:11 | <choenig> | so, there is no problem so far, right? |
| 09:11 | <sfr> | so how do i get utctime to be in UTC format? |
| 09:12 | <sfr> | there is this QTime:TimeSpec 'setting' but i don't know how to change it. |
| 09:13 | <choenig> | you can try 'utctime.currentTime(QT::UTC)' |
| 09:14 | <choenig> | did you check the qt documentation? |
| 09:14 | <sfr> | Ahh, thanks !. If this works, this should handle daylight savings time changes, then. |
| 09:15 | <choenig> | fine, that would be a nice replacement for my offset code :) |
| 09:15 | <sfr> | Yes, i read http://doc.trolltech.com/3.1/qtime.html#currentTime-2 but didn't know how to apply it. |
| 09:15 | <choenig> | ok :) |
| 09:15 | <sfr> | what offset code? |
| 09:15 | <choenig> | the one you try to enhance, I think |
| 09:16 | <sfr> | ah, it's yours? |
| 09:16 | <choenig> | japp |
| 09:16 | <choenig> | I needed that for nxtvepg ;) |
| 09:18 | <sfr> | ok, can i send you a patch then, (if it ever should work) to check? |
| 09:18 | <choenig> | sure |
| 09:19 | <sfr> | hm, does Qt have a simpler way to determine the current timezone offset? s/t like 'tell me the current timezone offset in hours? |
| 09:20 | <choenig> | I don't know |
| 09:20 | <sfr> | ok, i'll try it this way then. |

| 10:19 | <thor> | so you get a finished version of what you wanted for free =) |
| 10:19 | <TheAsp> | and figured out how i was going to do it in the end (based on expirey dates) |

| 10:53 | <TheAsp> | Captain_Murdoch: i also dont think that ranking is the best way to do it either... espically after i had it going for a few days |
| 10:54 | <TheAsp> | expiry based on time is more logical |
| 10:57 | <Captain_Murdoch> | sorry, stepped away for a few minutes. |
| 10:58 | <Captain_Murdoch> | time how? |
| 10:58 | <Captain_Murdoch> | current code expires oldest show that's marked as expirable. |
| 10:58 | <TheAsp> | have an integer field that is the number of hours since the program was recorded that iut should expiure after |
| 10:59 | <TheAsp> | so if it was set to 24, the show would be deletable after 24 hours |
| 10:59 | <TheAsp> | if it's 0 it's deletable right away |
| 10:59 | <TheAsp> | anyway got to go |
| 10:59 | <Captain_Murdoch> | is that for expiring for free space or just expiring automatically? |
| 10:59 | <Captain_Murdoch> | ok. |

| 12:05 | <rkulagow__> | yes (barely). |
| 12:05 | <Chutt> | know if the zap2it beta stuff still works for you? |
| 12:05 | <rkulagow__> | haven't checked. just got an email that they were supposed to extend the beta, but haven't had cycles to check lately. |
| 12:06 | <Chutt> | yeah, got that, but mine's not working |
| 12:06 | <Chutt> | figured i'd throw together stuff to support that, as i'm pissed off at the xmltv guys |
| 12:06 | <jkolb> | Chutt: I have a (hopefully) final patch for the previews in mythweb. Having someone test the mythweb-and-backend-on-the-same-machine case now. |
| 12:06 | <Chutt> | cool. |

| 12:48 | <jkolb> | Chutt: The frontend doesn't send back what it gets from the backend to retrieve the preview pixmaps. It has to generate a myth:// url or else MythContext::CacheRemotePixmap won't work. |
| 12:49 | <Chutt> | that's different from generating them |
| 12:49 | <Chutt> | if they're local, it just loads them locally |
| 12:50 | <jkolb> | Ah. |
| 12:50 | <jkolb> | Should I then have mythweb just try to copy them if it's local? |
| 12:51 | <Chutt> | would it have permissions to do so normally? |
| 12:51 | <Chutt> | that'd certainly be easier, wouldn't it? |
| 12:51 | <jkolb> | If it has permissions and isn't running chrooted, yeah. |
| 12:53 | <jkolb> | I suppose that 'make sure that the httpd user can read the images directory if mythweb and mythbackend are on the same machine' isn't too much to require. |

| 13:50 | <Chutt> | mdz, hey, around? |
| 13:50 | <mdz_> | Chutt: yep |
| 13:50 | <mdz_> | took the day off |
| 13:50 | <Chutt> | i was thinking of moving that Sync stuff into the threadedfilewriter class |
| 13:51 | <Chutt> | just have it do it itself every second |
| 13:51 | <mdz_> | hmm, I didn't know that gcc would let you do -g -fomit-frame-pointer |
| 13:51 | <mdz_> | seems like it should print some glaring warning |
| 13:51 | <Chutt> | heh |
| 13:51 | <Chutt> | like 'hi, i can't do what you told me to' ? |
| 13:51 | <mdz_> | I guess that would be ok |
| 13:51 | <jkolb> | Which does it do? |
| 13:52 | <Chutt> | it'd save me from spawning off another thread for the hardware encodes |
| 13:52 | <mdz_> | I want that support in gdb for external symbol information |
| 13:52 | <mdz_> | jkolb: apparently, it obeys -fomit-frame-pointer |
| 13:52 | <Chutt> | well, it probably goes in order |
| 13:52 | <mdz_> | it probably obeys both |
| 13:52 | <mdz_> | and includes all of the symbol information |
| 13:52 | <mdz_> | and then can't use it at all because there's no frame pointer :-) |
| 13:53 | <mdz_> | Chutt: is that python installer nice? |
| 13:53 | <Chutt> | looks like it |
| 13:53 | <mdz_> | it would be nice if it could replace setup |
| 13:53 | <Chutt> | i haven't run it |
| 13:53 | <mdz_> | rather than duplicate that code |
| 13:53 | <Chutt> | i _would_ prefer if it weren't in python, though |
| 13:54 | <mdz_> | s/code/functionality/ |
| 13:54 | <mdz_> | I have no problem with python for small things |
| 13:54 | <mdz_> | I actually rather like it |
| 13:54 | <Chutt> | well |
| 13:54 | <Chutt> | it's just another dependency |
| 13:54 | <mdz_> | it gets to be a pain for larger projects because of the lack of compile-time checking |
| 13:54 | <mdz_> | ah |
| 13:54 | <Chutt> | python and pyqt or whatever |
| 13:54 | <mdz_> | yeah |
| 13:55 | <mdz_> | everybody will have python already, but not pyqt |
| 13:55 | <Chutt> | oops |
| 13:55 | <Chutt> | i had unplugged the cvs server |
| 13:56 | <mikegrb> | heh |
| 13:56 | <mikegrb> | python is mandatory on gentoo for portage |
| 13:57 | <mikegrb> | I can see Chutt's point of view though in cases where you want a system with the bare minimum or for people not too familiar w/ linux having to figure out what they need |
| 13:57 | <Chutt> | mdz, just checked in the stuff to move the sync to the writer class |
| 13:57 | <mdz_> | Chutt: sounds fine |
| 13:57 | <Chutt> | not a big change, but =) |
| 13:58 | <mdz_> | it would be nice if that simply didn't suck in the kernel |
| 13:58 | <Chutt> | yeah |
| 13:58 | <mdz_> | there are a bunch of tunable parameters for it in /proc/sys/vm/bdflush |
| 13:58 | <Chutt> | i was watching tv in a window while doing other stuff last night |
| 13:58 | <mdz_> | how often to wake up, maximum amount of stuff to flush when you wake up, start waking up when there is a certain percentage of busy buffers, etc. |
| 13:58 | <Chutt> | hardware encodes, and it wasn't too happy |
| 13:58 | <mdz_> | but the defaults seem perfectly sane to me |
| 13:58 | <mdz_> | like start flushing when 30% is dirty or something |
| 13:58 | <mdz_> | but it doesn't do that |

| 14:02 | <Chutt> | it's so nice watching timeshifted tv with 94% cpu free |
| 14:03 | <mikegrb> | Yes, I finally get to get a hardware encoder in a month or so after we move... got to get a PAL tuner card anyway so I convinced the wife it is what we really need ;) |
| 14:04 | <Chutt> | would just be nice to get vbi working on the pvr cards |
| 14:05 | <mikegrb> | MythTV is going to let me continue to use the wide screen HDTV overseas even though it is NTSC :-) MythTV saved me money |
| 14:05 | <mikegrb> | that sounds like a project for me :-) |
| 14:05 | <Chutt> | heh |
| 14:07 | <extremis> | did I hear hdtv? |
| 14:07 | <mikegrb> | I think a plugin for people with large / nice TV's that allowed you to use the computer as a scaler for high quality video might be nice, it wouldn't work in systems w/o a tuner though and it would have to talk to the masterbackend about scheduling |
| 14:07 | <mikegrb> | extremis: yes |
| 14:07 | <Chutt> | extremis, if you need dvb support so much, i'll expect to see patches in my inbox soon |
| 14:07 | <mikegrb> | heh |
| 14:09 | <mikegrb> | this plugin idea obviously wouldn't support time-shifting but if I could make it talk to the masterbackend (same system or otherwise) it could still use the card for recording |
| 14:09 | <Chutt> | use tvtime for it? |
| 14:09 | <mikegrb> | heh that is kind of what I was thinking |
| 14:09 | <mikegrb> | I want to try to come up with a way for it to talk to the backend so the backend can ask for the tuner when it needs it and such |
| 14:10 | <mikegrb> | I just need to look at the code |
| 14:10 | <Chutt> | shouldn't be hard at all |
| 14:10 | <mikegrb> | that is what I was thinking |
| 14:10 | <mikegrb> | I have programming experience just not with c, picking it up though getting some good useage out of my orielly safari subscription ;-) |
| 14:11 | <mikegrb> | my wife's main complaint right now is just live tv, she absolutley loves mythtv and the recorded quality |
| 14:12 | <vektor> | mikegrb: you should try my app for live tv. |
| 14:12 | <vektor> | i'll be working on integrating it into mythtv soon. |
| 14:12 | <Chutt> | vektor, cool. |
| 14:12 | <vektor> | yeah, i'm pretty much set on this mythtv stuff. |
| 14:13 | <Chutt> | excellent |
| 14:13 | <mikegrb> | I have all these 'hairbrained' projects that she isn't too positive about. When I showed her the screenshots on the web page she was kind of maybe and in the end it's the only project she has really liked |
| 14:13 | <mikegrb> | vektor: url? |
| 14:13 | <vektor> | mikegrb: tvtime.net |
| 14:13 | <Chutt> | mikegrb, he's the tvtime guy |
| 14:13 | <mikegrb> | heh |
| 14:13 | <mikegrb> | I was going to try it ;-) |
| 14:13 | <vektor> | if you want to help out with it and mythtv, that would rock, btw. |
| 14:15 | <mikegrb> | Yes |
| 14:15 | <mikegrb> | I don't know how helpful I will be but I would definatley have use for it and don't mind putting in time |
| 14:15 | <vektor> | great. |

| 14:28 | -!- | dopez [~unknown@dopez.xs4all.nl] has joined #mythtv |
| 14:28 | <Chutt> | then don't demand code from other people |
| 14:29 | <just1nux> | Chutt: Any chance we can have a screen with the info like what they have on http://www.tv-central.org/index.php?x=today or http://www.tvtome.com/ in mythtv which shows the new stuff that is on... Im wondering where they get their data from... |
| 14:30 | * Snow-Man | demands code! |
| 14:30 | <extremis> | my intent was not to demand code... but instead to say that there are users who would appreciate the support |
| 14:30 | <extremis> | to my knowledge we don't poll users to determine who needs what features |
| 14:31 | <Chutt> | users don't determine features |
| 14:31 | <vektor> | extremis: most open source projects don't think that way. |
| 14:31 | <Chutt> | developers do |
| 14:32 | <Chutt> | if you can't contribute something, i don't give a damn about what features you want/need |
| 14:33 | <sfr> | Chutt: do translations count? ;-) |
| 14:33 | <Chutt> | almost |
| 14:33 | <Chutt> | heh |
| 14:33 | <Chutt> | ed avis (xmltv guy) says i'm being unreasonable to assume that things aren't going to change |
| 14:34 | <just1nux> | okay, well if they change how about giving you some warning... |
| 14:34 | <Chutt> | no |
| 14:34 | <Chutt> | it's not about that |
| 14:34 | <just1nux> | oh |
| 14:34 | <extremis> | well, I want to contribute, and I'm going to do it by trying to find a CI that will work with dishnet and a dvb card |
| 14:34 | <Chutt> | he's like 'follow the dtd' and 'but, the dtd doesn't say anything about channel numbers' |
| 14:34 | <extremis> | once I get that then I can help debug code |
| 14:35 | <extremis> | and hopefully then I can submit patches |
| 14:35 | <extremis> | but its certainly not going to be soon |
| 14:35 | <just1nux> | has the dtd been changing? |
| 14:36 | <Chutt> | no |
| 14:38 | <just1nux> | sounds like an incomplete dtd to me. |
| 14:38 | <Chutt> | it is |
| 14:39 | <sfr> | choenig: still around? |
| 14:44 | <choenig> | jepp |
| 14:45 | <sfr> | choenig: wanna test the patch we spoke about? it's not perfect but works for me. |
| 14:48 | <choenig> | I'm watching tv right now, but you can send it to me and Ill have a look later tonight |
| 14:50 | <jkolb> | Chutt: Re: My suggested database changes. You made a comment that I may want to make some of the ids strings to match gist.com data or somesuch. I had meant for those ids to be used solely for joins, and not to match anything external to the database. Can you remember why you said that? |
| 14:50 | <Chutt> | if there's already existing program ids, why not use em? |
| 14:51 | <choenig> | sfr: mythtv@christianhoenig.de, thats better |
| 14:51 | <sfr> | choenig: on the way. |
| 14:51 | <choenig> | ok |
| 14:52 | <jkolb> | Because we're not doing anything else with the ids than joining on them, so using someone else's unique id is no different than using our own? |
| 14:52 | <Chutt> | sure you'd be doing something else with them |
| 14:52 | <jkolb> | Also, does everyone get their data from gist? |
| 14:52 | <Chutt> | as they'd be used when getting new data |
| 14:52 | <Chutt> | gist is dead. |
| 14:52 | <jkolb> | (Was it gist?) |
| 14:52 | <Chutt> | zap2it |

| 14:54 | <jkolb> | Ok, I see how that could be useful. |
| 14:54 | <jkolb> | It looks like they use numeric ids for the programs, though. |
| 14:54 | <jkolb> | (Just mousing over a few) |
| 14:55 | <Chutt> | naw |
| 14:55 | <Chutt> | there's a two letter prefix, usually |
| 14:55 | <Chutt> | EP, MV, SH |
| 14:55 | <jkolb> | The dbKey has a prefix, but there's a prog_id and a series_id that seem to be numeric. |
| 14:57 | <jkolb> | It looks like they use prog_id for specific episodes, and series_id for a series. |
| 14:58 | <Chutt> | the dbkey is what's exported |
| 14:58 | <Chutt> | though |
| 14:59 | <jkolb> | Ok. Poking around the website didn't make that apparent. |
| 15:00 | <jkolb> | Do you know if that's all zap2it returns, or if that's all that tv_grab_na puts into the xmltv file? |
| 15:00 | <Chutt> | tv_grab_na doesn't put any of it into the file |
| 15:00 | <Chutt> | this is for something else =) |
| 15:00 | <jkolb> | Well, if you're going to make me write it, then I don't give a damn about your input. :P |
| 15:00 | <Chutt> | heh |
| 15:01 | <Snow-Man> | I really need to get the lists moved. |
| 15:02 | <jkolb> | Is there a way to get a sample export from zap2it? I suppose it's not just getting the webpages. |
| 15:02 | <Chutt> | jkolb, wait a couple weeks |
| 15:03 | <Chutt> | snowman, tired of the load on snowman.net? =) |
| 15:04 | <jkolb> | I suppose I can do that. |

| 15:05 | <Chutt> | ah |
| 15:05 | <Snow-Man> | The mailing list portion of it doesn't take up much bw at all now. |
| 15:05 | <Snow-Man> | Or anything else really. |
| 15:05 | <jkolb> | Does anyone else run mythbackend and mythweb on the same machine? I'd really like to see if this latest patch will work properly, but the guy who's been testing them for me hasn't responded to my latest attempt in a while. |
| 15:06 | <Snow-Man> | I do.. |
| 15:06 | <Chutt> | i do |
| 15:06 | <Snow-Man> | Was mythweb rewritten or whatever yet? |

| 17:23 | <extremis> | my god the netcache SE is hot |
| 17:24 | <sfr> | netcache? -v |
| 17:26 | <extremis> | network appliance |
| 17:26 | <extremis> | mechou: sup? |
| 17:29 | <mechou> | extremis, you get any luck with homebrew tx? |
| 17:40 | <extremis> | nope |
| 17:41 | <extremis> | I might try the one on lirc's site instead of blars |
| 17:41 | <extremis> | so, what is the diff between PNP and NPN? |
| 17:41 | <extremis> | and what pins are gnd and dtr on a 9 pin serial? |
| 17:43 | <mechou> | extremis, what did you try? |
| 17:43 | --> Peit|Home | (~moreyc@public1-warr1-5-cust81.bagu.broadband.ntl.com) has joined #mythtv |
| 17:43 | <Peit|Home> | is mythtv-users moderated? |
| 17:44 | <extremis> | mechou: I flipped the transistors and I bypassed r5 and r6 (in case my serial port was current limited) |
| 17:44 | <extremis> | since I was only seeing -10v on my idle dtr |
| 17:45 | <mechou> | I thing GND on serial is pin 5 (don't quote me on this thou) |
| 17:45 | <extremis> | I'll find that |
| 17:45 | <extremis> | no problem |
| 17:46 | <extremis> | what I don't understand still is how to tell + - on a capisitor |
| 17:46 | <extremis> | and what eh diff of PNP and NPN is |
| 17:46 | <extremis> | I can see that the arrow goes in a diff direction on this diagram (although non on blars) |
| 17:46 | <extremis> | but I don't know how that affects the transistors position |
| 17:47 | <mechou> | you had it right on the cap, generally '>' sign points to '-' terminal... |
| 17:47 | <extremis> | ok |
| 17:47 | <mechou> | if you didn't cut off the the cap lead the shorter foot generally is '-' |
| 17:47 | <extremis> | ahh |
| 17:49 | <extremis> | npn pnp? |
| 17:49 | <mechou> | and I really can't remember what the diff is betw. NPN vs PNP besides the wat it's doped. Maybe something to do with "forward bias" |
| 17:49 | <mikegrb> | extremis: NPN and PNP have the materials switched |
| 17:49 | <mikegrb> | yes |
| 17:49 | <mechou> | s/wat/way |
| 17:49 | <mikegrb> | they are doped oposite of each other |
| 17:49 | <extremis> | doped? |
| 17:49 | <mikegrb> | one gets +Vcc the other gets -Vcc |
| 17:50 | <mikegrb> | on a schematic the arrow points to the line for a PNP and away for NPN |
| 17:50 | <extremis> | right, so blars doesn't use PNP |
| 17:51 | <mechou> | yeah, you're talking semiconductor physics here, how the "potentials" are "shaped", more holes, etc... |
| 17:51 | <mikegrb> | exactly |
| 17:51 | <extremis> | http://www.blars.org/blarslirc/ |
| 17:51 | <mechou> | nah, blars doesn't use pnp.... |
| 17:52 | <extremis> | so he uses 2n3904 and 2n4401 |
| 17:52 | <extremis> | I need to go buy a PNP |
| 17:52 | <extremis> | and some new resistors, since he uses diff ohms |
| 17:52 | <mechou> | extremis, why? |
| 17:52 | <extremis> | so I can build the lirc model |
| 17:53 | <mechou> | I mean why get pnp? |
| 17:53 | <mechou> | are you _sure_ blars wont work? |
| 17:53 | <extremis> | the lirc improved transmitter diag calls for it |
| 17:53 | <extremis> | mechou: well I couldn't figure out why it wasn't working |
| 17:54 | <extremis> | to me I had it right |
| 17:54 | <extremis> | and no one could tell me it wasn't |
| 17:54 | <extremis> | but it obviously iddn't have the voltage that he indicated nor did it get detected by another box runningmode2 |
| 17:54 | <extremis> | nor did I see anything on my IR detector strip |
| 17:55 | <mechou> | well, if you had 10x less juice it wouldn't surprise me a detector can't sense it... |
| 17:55 | <extremis> | mechou: after I flipped those NPNs it dropped to .005 across that resistor |
| 17:56 | <extremis> | the arrow is the emittor right? |
| 17:56 | <mechou> | oops, sorry... |
| 17:56 | <mikegrb> | yes |
| 17:57 | <extremis> | then I have no clue why its not working |
| 17:57 | <mikegrb> | and it points away or to the base |
| 17:58 | <extremis> | so on this improved transmitter, the ground crosses through the dtr, should they touch like that or is it just a problem with the diagram? |
| 17:58 | <mikegrb> | url? |
| 17:58 | <extremis> | http://www.lirc.org/improved_transmitter.html |
| 17:58 | <extremis> | these schematics ar ehorrible |
| 17:58 | <extremis> | they should give part #'s |
| 17:59 | <mechou> | nah, they rarely give part # cause they assume you know what you're doing ;-).... |
| 17:59 | <mikegrb> | lol |
| 17:59 | <extremis> | I don't know what I'm doing |
| 18:00 | <extremis> | I shouldn't have had to make this damn thing |
| 18:00 | <mikegrb> | right, gound and dtr don't connect... the line just passes over in the diag |
| 18:00 | <extremis> | thats why I paid for the actisys |
| 18:00 | <extremis> | :) |
| 18:00 | <extremis> | mikegrb: thanks |
| 18:00 | <mikegrb> | no prob |
| 18:00 | * mikegrb | is an electronics technician in the navy ;-) |
| 18:00 | <extremis> | mikegrb: will you be on tonight ? ;) |
| 18:00 | <mikegrb> | heh |
| 18:00 | <mikegrb> | sure |
| 18:01 | <extremis> | I'm going to go to rat shack |
| 18:01 | <mikegrb> | I had planned on it |
| 18:01 | <mikegrb> | funny too |
| 18:01 | * mikegrb | used to work at radio shack |
| 18:01 | <mikegrb> | er um rat shack |
| 18:01 | <extremis> | ;) |
| 18:02 | * extremis | has already spent $75 trying to get this working |
| 18:02 | <extremis> | I hope this additional ~$15 will be worth it |
| 18:02 | <mechou> | $75?? what the heck did you buy?? |
| 18:02 | <extremis> | actisys and parts for blars tx |
| 18:02 | <extremis> | these parts aren't cheap locally |
| 18:03 | <mechou> | extremis, is there a local college nearby with electronics shop? |
| 18:03 | <extremis> | mechou: and you recommended that I get 3 of each |
| 18:03 | <extremis> | mechou: I'm sure |
| 18:03 | <mechou> | 3x0.15=.45<<$75 ;) |
| 18:04 | <extremis> | mechou: the led's were $50 each |
| 18:04 | <extremis> | so were teh transistors |
| 18:04 | <mikegrb> | more properly 3x0.15=.45<<<<<<<<$75 |
| 18:04 | <extremis> | I mean |
| 18:04 | <extremis> | .50 |
| 18:04 | <mechou> | what??? |
| 18:04 | <extremis> | the capicitor was $4 |
| 18:04 | <mikegrb> | heh those be some expensive leds |
| 18:05 | <extremis> | mikegrb: they are more at rrat shack |
| 18:05 | <mikegrb> | yes I know |
| 18:05 | <mikegrb> | and unfortunatley that is the only place here to get them |
| 18:06 | <mechou> | nah, you got to find one of those colleges. Bribe a local electronics student to buid you one. Heck, I'd probably do it for some good beer... |
| 18:06 | <mikegrb> | gosh the list has been active today |

| 20:55 | <extremis> | mikegrb: should I use silicon switching diodes or 50V 1Amicromini silicon diodes? |
| 21:01 | <mikegrb> | silicon switching should be fine |
| 21:01 | <mikegrb> | which is cheaper? |
| 21:01 | <extremis> | I have both |
| 21:01 | <mikegrb> | oic |
| 21:01 | <mikegrb> | I think either should work |
| 21:02 | <extremis> | does it matter what wattage the resisters are? 1/2 or 1/4 |
| 21:02 | <mikegrb> | not really in this case |
| 21:02 | <extremis> | what about voltage on the LED? |
| 21:02 | <mikegrb> | the main thing is the resistance, this is a pretty low current circuit |
| 21:02 | <extremis> | the infra's are 1.6 and the led is 2.x |
| 21:03 | <mikegrb> | lemme look at the ckt |
| 21:05 | <mikegrb> | you should be okay the two infras are in series so that is 3.2 v the resistor that is series with the led will drop the extra voltage on that branch |
| 21:09 | <extremis> | ok, time to finish this up |
| 21:09 | <extremis> | gotta place the diods now |
