| 02:04 | <tmk> | i need some opinions |
| 02:04 | <tmk> | when buffering data to be output to TV |
| 02:05 | <tmk> | is it better to group small writes till you reach a set size |
| 02:05 | <tmk> | or to flush buffers every 1/60th of a second |

| 11:35 | <ByteNik> | anyone here use the IVTV drivers? |
| 11:36 | <Dr_Willis> | heck - i am fighting with mySql :) |
| 11:37 | <ByteNik> | need any help? |
| 11:37 | <Dr_Willis> | it aint startiong for some reason let me check the log |
| 11:37 | <Dr_Willis> | 030821 9:57:42 Fatal error: Can't open privilege tables: Can't find file: './mysql/host.frm' (errno: 13) |
| 11:38 | <Dr_Willis> | Ok.. so where does that file come from? : ) i aint seeing it anywhere |
| 11:38 | <Dr_Willis> | just got a 2 pc lan. ip's 192.168.1.XXX names vaio and clear. |
| 11:38 | <ByteNik> | It doesn't exist... that's why it says it can't find it. :P |
| 11:38 | <ByteNik> | What distro are you running? |
| 11:39 | <Dr_Willis> | gentoo |
| 11:39 | <ByteNik> | Yay |
| 11:40 | <ByteNik> | You installed mysql from portage, right? |
| 11:40 | <Dr_Willis> | I gotta go track down my MySQL book. :) i never really did read it |
| 11:40 | <Dr_Willis> | emerge mysql |
| 11:40 | <Dr_Willis> | :P |
| 11:40 | <ByteNik> | And this error started immediately after you emerged? |
| 11:40 | <ByteNik> | First startup? |
| 11:41 | <Dr_Willis> | yep . aint been able to get it started.. even trying it says to do some commands.. which i cant do |
| 11:41 | <ByteNik> | Did you install MythTV from portage? |
| 11:41 | <Dr_Willis> | /etc/init.d/mysql restart - even acts flakey |
| 11:41 | <Dr_Willis> | yep. emerged it all |
| 11:41 | <ByteNik> | Did you run the MythTV Gentoo database setup script? |
| 11:42 | <Dr_Willis> | aint been able to run ANY mysql scripts since m,ysql dont want to run |
| 11:42 | <Dr_Willis> | or is there a special one not in the MythTV docs? |
| 11:43 | <Chutt> | take it up with the gentoo maintainer of mysql |
| 11:43 | <Dr_Willis> | reading along in the Mythtv docs myself. |
| 11:43 | <Dr_Willis> | so what is the format of that file then? |
| 11:43 | <Chutt> | you don't have a mysql problem totally unrelated to mythtv. |
| 11:43 | <Chutt> | err, no 'don't' |
| 11:43 | <ByteNik> | he might not |
| 11:44 | -!- | Drikus [~Drikus@cc45940-a.deven1.ov.home.nl] has joined #mythtv |
| 11:44 | <Dr_Willis> | heh heh |
| 11:44 | <ByteNik> | You have to set up the databases and stuff first |
| 11:44 | <Chutt> | bytenik, umm, no. if mysql itself doesn't start, it's not mythtv's fault. |
| 11:44 | <ByteNik> | MythTV's portage package comes with a script |
| 11:44 | <ByteNik> | Not a .sql |
| 11:44 | <ByteNik> | A shell script |
| 11:44 | <ByteNik> | It does some moding of the config files |
| 11:44 | <Chutt> | did you even look at the error he pasted? |
| 11:44 | <ByteNik> | Yes |
| 11:44 | <Chutt> | and that's your diagnosis? |
| 11:44 | <Chutt> | heh |
| 11:45 | <ByteNik> | I said it COULD be. |
| 11:45 | <Chutt> | there's absolutely no way it could be. |
| 11:45 | <ByteNik> | I'm assuming Portage didn't give him errors. |
| 11:46 | <Dr_Willis> | heh - well lets see... a search of google finds a LOT of other disrtos/peopel with similer error. |
| 11:47 | <Chutt> | like i said, ask the guy in charge of mysql at gentoo. |
| 11:47 | <Dr_Willis> | some one care to look at their file and see if its just a few lines or a lot? |
| 11:47 | <ByteNik> | sure... second... |
| 11:47 | <Chutt> | this isn't a general linux tech support channel. |
| 11:48 | <mdz_> | mysql's internal tables don't exist. the mysql installation is broken; nothing to do with mythtv |
| 11:48 | <Chutt> | exactly. |
| 11:48 | <Dr_Willis> | i never said it was myth tv's fault. |
| 11:49 | <Chutt> | then why are you asking in here? |
| 11:50 | <mdz_> | Chutt: because ByteNik encouraged him to :-) |
| 11:51 | <ByteNik> | not really, i just answered a question with what i thought the possible answer was |
| 11:52 | <Dr_Willis> | i dident ask it here.. me and ByteNik are TALKING... geesh. |
| 11:52 | <ByteNik> | I have a question with getting IVTV drivers working with Myth... can I asked that here? |
| 11:52 | <Dr_Willis> | here we go. http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/Post-installation.html :) mentions it.. gotta run. byee |
| 11:52 | <Chutt> | bytenik, sure. |
| 11:52 | <Dr_Willis> | ByteNik, better not... its not got myth infront of it. :) |
| 11:52 | -!- | Dr_Willis [~willis@12-222-124-154.client.insightBB.com] has quit ["Client exiting"] |
| 11:53 | <Chutt> | that's at least semi-related. |
| 11:53 | <ByteNik> | I installed IVTV and compiled, I finaly resolved all of the dependency issues, I made sure that I had a wire plugged in (duh :P) and still I get black screen. |
| 11:53 | <Chutt> | any errors on the console you ran mythfrontend and mythbackend from? |
| 11:53 | -!- | sfr [~sfr@p5083151D.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #mythtv |
| 11:54 | <ByteNik> | Nope |
| 11:54 | <Chutt> | then it's not a mythtv problem. |
| 11:54 | <Chutt> | unless you have it configured for the wrong input or something |
| 11:54 | -!- | mecraw [~mecraw@69.2.235.2] has joined #mythtv |
| 11:55 | <Chutt> | mdz, you fix that timeoffset issue yet? :p |
| 11:55 | <ByteNik> | Hmm... I do see "Couldn't find Xv support... blah blah" |
| 11:55 | <Chutt> | well, that's something |
| 11:55 | <Chutt> | video playback doesn't work very well without xv |
| 11:56 | <Chutt> | though it should display something |
| 11:56 | <mdz_> | Chutt: yep. deleted the record from my database :-P |
| 11:56 | <Chutt> | heh |
| 11:56 | <ByteNik> | built in radeon drivers don't support Xv? |
| 11:56 | <Chutt> | apparently not. |
| 11:56 | <mdz_> | depends on the card |
| 11:56 | <Chutt> | you probably need to use the gatos crap |
| 11:56 | <ByteNik> | Oi |
| 11:56 | <Chutt> | which isn't much better, but, whatever |
| 11:57 | <Chutt> | but first, make sure you can capture by just catting from the video device |
| 11:57 | <Chutt> | cat /dev/video0 > blah.mpg |
| 11:57 | <sfr> | mdz_ timeoffset issue? with mythfilldatabase by chance? |
| 11:57 | <Chutt> | and make sure that gives you video |
| 11:57 | <mdz_> | sfr: tangentially |
| 11:57 | <mdz_> | mythfilldatabase complains about it, but I doubt it's the source of the problem |
| 12:01 | <mdz_> | Chutt: did you check your database to see if you have a record like that? |
| 12:01 | <mdz_> | it had hostname = NULL |
| 12:01 | <Chutt> | no, i didn't |
| 12:01 | <Chutt> | it's supposed to have hostname = null |
| 12:01 | <Chutt> | global setting |
| 12:02 | <mdz_> | so it should only be changed by setup |
| 12:02 | <Chutt> | right |
| 12:02 | <mdz_> | I haven't run setup in quite some time |
| 12:02 | <mdz_> | hmmm |
| 12:02 | <mdz_> | ./contrib/installer.py: cursor.execute("INSERT INTO settings (value,data,hostname) VALUES ('TimeOffset','','%s')" % hostname) |
| 12:03 | <Chutt> | what's that from? |
| 12:03 | <mdz_> | from CVS |
| 12:03 | <mdz_> | oh, maybe not |
| 12:04 | <mdz_> | I probably just dropped it in that directory |
| 12:04 | <mdz_> | though |
| 12:04 | <mdz_> | didn't timeoffset change from hours to minutes or something recently? |
| 12:04 | <Chutt> | yeah, but the format didn't change |
| 12:04 | <mdz_> | oh |
| 12:05 | <mdz_> | that check is new; the record has probably been there forever |
| 12:06 | <sfr> | mdz_ what happened? |
| 12:07 | <mdz_> | sfr: select * from settings where value = 'TimeOffset' |
| 12:07 | <mdz_> | see if you have a row where the 'data' column is empty |
| 12:09 | <sfr> | mdz_ nope, data=Auto, but i changed it manually when adding support for minutes. |
| 12:10 | <mdz_> | ah |
| 12:10 | <mdz_> | sfr: was that your code in filldata which checked whether the value was valid, then? |
| 12:12 | <sfr> | mdz_ sorry, have a short memory :) do you have line number? |
| 12:20 | <rkulagow> | chutt: do you have a cron job that's moving over the docs to the correct place on the website? i think it's not doing the .pdf file (unless i've got a cache issue) |
| 12:21 | <sfr> | mdz_ if you meant the if-else around line 547, then yes, i touched that code |
| 12:21 | <Chutt> | rkulagow, well, i wasn't updating the pdf |
| 12:21 | <Chutt> | but the last couple times i did it, it should have updated |
| 12:21 | <rkulagow> | ok; when i clicked through to the pdf, it gave me v 2.53 or something; we're on 2.62 now of the html. |
| 12:21 | <Chutt> | yeah |
| 12:22 | <Chutt> | i just grabbed the pdf and it's 2.62 |
| 12:22 | <Chutt> | but i don't think it had been getting updated until 2.61 or so |
| 12:25 | <rkulagow> | ok, i think i'm back in sync now WRT docs; i had been using linuxdoc to try to make pdfs, and they were crap. html2pdf is working just fine, so i'll just keep using it. there should now be a pdf version that's in sync with the html as part of the commits i upload. |
| 12:26 | <Chutt> | allright |
| 12:26 | <Chutt> | are you using mdz's makefile in there? |
| 12:27 | <ByteNik> | hmm... why does the iulius theme look nothing like its preview image? |
| 12:27 | <sfr> | ByteNik it's called marketing |
| 12:28 | <Chutt> | the iulius theme's old and not updated anymore |
| 12:28 | <ByteNik> | o |
| 12:29 | <Chutt> | and in that case, the preview image wasn't updated when the rest of the theme was |
| 12:35 | <ByteNik> | even though its old, will i have problems using iulius? |
| 12:35 | <Chutt> | yeah, it probably won't work everywhere |
| 12:35 | <Chutt> | and will most likely dump you out of mythfrontend |

| 12:49 | <markt_> | i have a Pinnacle DC10+ MJPEG card. It's working with myth fine. Apart from one thing, which is that the right hand side of the image appears not to be displayed/captured. |
| 12:50 | <markt_> | i have googled, but don't seem to be able to find an answer/solution. |
| 12:50 | <markt_> | any help would be much appreciated. :-) |

| 12:52 | <markt_> | hmmm. |
| 12:52 | <markt_> | not much traffic here. :-) |
| 12:52 | <ByteNik> | Yay... another problem. :-/ |
| 12:53 | <ByteNik> | I keep switching my provider in Myth to Comcast DIgital Cable from Comcast Cable |
| 12:53 | <ByteNik> | I know that XMLTV has data for the digitial channels |
| 12:53 | <ByteNik> | But Myth keeps only showing the analog ones. |
| 12:53 | <sfr> | markt_ prob. people are just busy. can't offer any tips for you, sorry |
| 12:54 | <markt_> | sfr: sure, np. |
| 12:55 | <markt_> | i was hoping it would be a "known issue" of some kind ;-) |
| 12:55 | <sfr> | hm, markt_ does your card work with other capturing tools? |
| 12:56 | <sfr> | does live-tv mode work? |
| 12:56 | <markt_> | live tv mode works, just doesn't have the RHS of the picture |
| 12:56 | <sfr> | markt_ how much is missing? |
| 12:56 | <markt_> | it works fine with lavrec |
| 12:56 | <mdz_> | Chutt: if he's building PDFs with html2pdf, then he's not using my makefile |
| 12:57 | <markt_> | erm, about 15% i guess |
| 12:57 | <markt_> | i've tried negative overscan, but that just gets me black borders on both sides |
| 12:58 | <sfr> | markt_ shouldn't it be positive? |
| 12:59 | <sfr> | markt_ did you try the scan displacement param. |
| 13:00 | <ByteNik> | is there a difference between visor and visorosd |
| 13:00 | <rkulagow> | mdz: nope, he's not. i was going to edit the makefile so that pdfs are done with html2pdf, but then again i already have a "makedoc" script that i use to do all that anyways. |
| 13:00 | <mdz_> | rkulagow: I actually prefer the latex PDFs, but I don't use the PDF anyway |
| 13:00 | <mdz_> | rkulagow: it would be nice to have something in CVS to generate the docs in the "official" way, so that others can do it as well |
| 13:01 | <mdz_> | where does this html2pdf come from? |
| 13:01 | <rkulagow> | same people that make cups. |
| 13:01 | <rkulagow> | http://www.easysw.com/htmldoc |
| 13:02 | <mdz_> | apparently, there is more than one tool by that name |
| 13:02 | <mdz_> | http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Lab/5247/ for example |
| 13:03 | <alkern> | ByteNik: did you happen to install the gentoo mythtv-themes ebuild? |
| 13:03 | <mdz_> | ah, htmldoc |
| 13:03 | <ByteNik> | yah |
| 13:03 | <markt_> | sfr: the scan displacement param has no visible effect (i tried setting it to 100) |
| 13:03 | <rkulagow> | yep, brane froze up |
| 13:03 | <rkulagow> | sorry about the confusion there. |
| 13:04 | <alkern> | ByteNik: ok, I don't think i did that ebuild properly |
| 13:05 | <alkern> | there's supposed to be an visor-looking osd theme, at least according to the creator's website. |
| 13:05 | <jkolb> | ByteNik: Visor is for the main mythfrontend screens, visorosd is for the osd while watching live tv or a recording. |
| 13:05 | <ByteNik> | Alkern: Well, I did at least notice that the fonts didn't install themselves |
| 13:05 | <ByteNik> | Alkern: But the OSD shouldn't display in the main themes? |
| 13:06 | <alkern> | jkolb: mythtv didn't detect visorosd in the setup |
| 13:06 | <alkern> | would anyone know if mythtv will look at symlinks? |
| 13:06 | <alkern> | for detecting themes |
| 13:07 | <alkern> | ByteNik: which fonts? |
| 13:07 | <ByteNik> | alkern: all of the fonts that come with the themes |
| 13:08 | <alkern> | i wasn't aware that themes have their own fonts |
| 13:08 | <ByteNik> | I thought so... |
| 13:08 | <alkern> | i don't think so |
| 13:08 | <ByteNik> | 1 sec |
| 13:08 | <ByteNik> | Lemme look |
| 13:09 | <mdz_> | rkulagow: Chutt will be pleased; that one doesn't require TeX |
| 13:09 | <jkolb> | alkern: I have /usr/share/mythtv symlinked to /etc/mythtv, so yeah, it follows symlinks. |
| 13:09 | <ByteNik> | Oh |
| 13:09 | <alkern> | jkolb: right, but what about inside /usr/share/mythtv/themes (thats one beyond the link) |
| 13:09 | <ByteNik> | Only iulius did, and that's not from you. |
| 13:09 | <alkern> | yup |
| 13:10 | <jkolb> | I dunno. I can't imaging it wouldn't. |
| 13:10 | <jkolb> | er, imgine. |
| 13:10 | <jkolb> | er, imagine. |
| 13:10 | <jkolb> | ugh. |
| 13:10 | <alkern> | well, visorosd point to visor, but it is not showing up in the setup...so maybe there's something else missing |
| 13:10 | <rkulagow> | mdz: yep. and as an added bonus, it also _works_, which is more than i could say for linuxdoc-tools after about 2 days of futzing with it. |
| 13:10 | <jkolb> | That's not right. |
| 13:10 | <ByteNik> | You guys should consider creating a bootsplash for mythtv for those of us who want this to look completely like a PVR |
| 13:11 | <jkolb> | visorosd and visor are made up of different files. |

| 13:14 | <alkern> | lemme check again |
| 13:15 | <alkern> | oh would you look at that? |
| 13:15 | <alkern> | thanks! |
| 13:15 | <markt_> | sfr: here's an interesting fact i've just determined - the amount missing on the RHS varies according to the horizontal decimation i use. (at decimation 4, it's got the least missing) |
| 13:18 | <mdz_> | rkulagow: hmm, I didn't have any problems getting linuxdoc to work, using the commands in the makefile |
| 13:18 | <sfr> | markt_ i also use a mjpeg card (marvel g400-tv) but with decimation 2 and only see a thin black bar at the left edge of the screen |
| 13:18 | <markt_> | are you in an NTSC or PAL region? |
| 13:18 | <sfr> | markt_ pal |
| 13:18 | <markt_> | i am PAL too |
| 13:19 | <mdz_> | rkulagow: I get a lot of these using htmldoc: ERR014: Preformatted text on page 16 too long - truncation or overlapping may occur! |
| 13:20 | <markt_> | sfr: does it look similar to the output you get in xawtv, or does it look like there's a lump missing on the RHS? |
| 13:20 | <rkulagow> | mdz: i looked, and the pages appear to be intact from what i can tell. |
| 13:21 | <rkulagow> | when i ran the sgml through linuxdoc to create the pdfs i got about 2000 lines of error messages on screen and a blank pdf. |
| 13:21 | <sfr> | markt_ i'm wrong, sorry. on the main backend where a tv is connected to, everything is fine. this small black bar on the LHS only appears on a laptop i use as a remote frontend. but i think i could fix it by playing with this overscan settings. |

| 13:22 | <mdz_> | rkulagow: committed a new makefile which uses htmldoc |
| 13:23 | <mdz_> | rkulagow: with linuxdoc/latex I got the usual complaints from TeX about how it couldn't break lines exactly as it wanted to, but the PDF came out fine |
| 13:24 | <mdz_> | no errors |
| 13:24 | <mdz_> | Output written on mythtv-HOWTO.pdf (71 pages, 480504 bytes). |
| 13:25 | <rkulagow> | mdz: that's about what i get too when running htmldoc. as long as it works, i'm happy. |
| 13:25 | <mdz_> | rkulagow: is there anything in your script that isn't in the makefile now? |
| 13:26 | <alkern> | ByteNik: I committed a new mythtv-themes ebuild (no version bump though). Can you try emerge --sync; rm /usr/portage/distfiles/visor.tar.gz; emerge mythtv-themes in about 30 minutes and see if the visorosd theme comes up for you in the setup? |
| 13:29 | <markt_> | sfr: yay, i think i may have found the solution |
| 13:29 | <markt_> | sfr: we shall know after a recompilation extravaganza. ;-) |

| 13:33 | <mdz_> | those messages from htmldoc are actually errors, though, and it exits unsuccessfully |
| 13:33 | <mdz_> | though it does produce a pdf |
| 13:33 | <mdz_> | how broken |
| 13:36 | <mdz_> | markt_: works fine here |
| 13:39 | <markt_> | mdz_: when i try to "apt-get build-dep mythtv" it wants to deinstall libqt3-mt and replace it with libqt3c102-mt |
| 13:40 | <sfr> | markt_ thats ok |
| 13:40 | <markt_> | because afaics, libqt3-mt-dev relies on libqt3c102-mt |
| 13:41 | <markt_> | however, my installed version of the mythtv deb depends on libqt3-mt :) |
| 13:42 | <markt_> | so it gets deinstalled. not to worry though, for i'm building a new mythtv package anyway. :-) |
| 13:42 | <sfr> | markt_ you installed the debs for unstable? |

| 15:21 | <Chutt> | right |
| 15:23 | <sfr> | Chutt re the mythmusic patch. i cleaned it all up. but still use if else's to create the filename, think about what happens if YEAR or TITLE appear in the metadata |
| 15:23 | <sfr> | i switched to a regexp for the directory part, though |
| 15:24 | <Chutt> | you may want to switch to %YEAR% %TITLE% |
| 15:24 | <Chutt> | etc |
| 15:24 | <sfr> | is that % a word boundary? |
| 15:24 | <Chutt> | as an identifier for what to replace |
| 15:25 | <sfr> | looks ugly to me :) |
| 15:26 | <Chutt> | that's what's used in the osd code. |
| 15:28 | <sfr> | i'll have a look. do you object the style or is it about performance |
| 15:28 | <Chutt> | the if/else stuff works for me, really |
| 15:28 | <Chutt> | i was just thinking it might be simpler code to use qregexp |
| 15:33 | <sfr> | yeah, but this way i think it's more tolerant to non-perfect user input |
| 15:33 | <bbeattie> | sfr: define vendor-supplied. The card uses a patched bttv driver. |
| 15:34 | <sfr> | bbeattie, well i just didn't understand what you said (pardon my english) |
| 15:35 | <bbeattie> | sfr: the driver for the pcHDTV uses a patched bttv driver. Meaning that until the next version of the bttv driver is released to the kernel, (2.6) then you need to compile the bttv kernel driver module that comes on a CD with the card. The driver is GPL. |
| 15:36 | <jkolb> | A patched bttv driver? It gives raw frames instead of the mpeg data? |
| 15:36 | <jkolb> | I suppose that should be 'decoded frames instead of the raw mpeg data,' actually. |
| 15:36 | <just1nux> | hope not. that would suck |
| 15:36 | <bbeattie> | no, you read /dev/dtv and it's an mpeg2-ts stream |
| 15:36 | <jkolb> | Oh, good. |
| 15:37 | <sfr> | Aha |
| 15:37 | <just1nux> | cool |
| 15:37 | <bbeattie> | You still tune the card the same way you do with NTSC/bttv. You just set a different video ioctl and read the data stream in 188 byte packets. |

| 10:49 | <Chutt> | i don't know if the built-in mpeg decoder can handle very high resolution, either |
| 10:49 | <Chutt> | i haven't tried their hacked up xine yet |
| 10:49 | <bbeattie> | Chutt: can you put in another video card into those little systems? |
| 10:49 | <Chutt> | nope |
| 10:49 | <Chutt> | one pci slot |
| 10:49 | <bbeattie> | what is their "hacked up xine"? |
| 10:50 | <jkolb> | I thought you could get two with a riser. |
| 10:50 | <Chutt> | they've got a version of xine that works with the mpeg decoder on the board |
| 10:50 | <Chutt> | jkolb, ok, 2 with a riser |
| 10:50 | <Chutt> | but... pci video cards don't do video nearly as well as agp |
| 10:50 | <bbeattie> | Chutt: do you have a link to that info on the onboard supported mpeg2 decoding via xine? |
| 10:50 | <Chutt> | not off hand |
| 10:50 | <Chutt> | it was posted two or three times to the mythtv lists, though |
| 10:51 | <Chutt> | and the xine people said there's little chance of it getting merged into xine itself, since the code's rather nasty |
| 10:51 | <Chutt> | i figure i'd look into mythtv/libavcodec support sometime, but that's a while off |
| 10:51 | <Chutt> | but really, you'd be better off getting a micro-atx board or whatnot |

| 21:03 | <automatic_jack> | I'm trying to set up mythtv from the Debian packages. |

| 21:04 | <automatic_jack> | how do I figure out what password mythtv wants to use so I can make sure it's right in the database? |
| 21:05 | <paulproteus> | mdz: /me humbly requests help with your Debian packages |
| 21:06 | <paulproteus> | Well, more like, I'm going to tell you mythtv-database didn't seem to install the DB correctly. |
| 21:06 | <paulproteus> | The perl script errors out; let me get you the errors. |
| 21:09 | <paulproteus> | mdz_: Here's the transcript on a freshly-installed Unstable [x]box: |
| 21:09 | <paulproteus> | Failed to connect to database: Unknown database 'mythconverg' at -e line 5, <> line 1. |
| 21:09 | <paulproteus> | Failed to connect to database: Unknown database 'mythconverg' at -e line 6, <> line 1. |
| 21:09 | <Chutt> | most of the problems people have with the debs are that they give a password for root access to mysql when no password exists. |
| 21:09 | <automatic_jack> | I think I am having this same problem. |
| 21:09 | <paulproteus> | I didn't give a password. |
| 21:09 | <Chutt> | in fact, that's the only problem i've heard of with them |
| 21:10 | <paulproteus> | I was sure to not make that stupid n00b mistake ;). |
| 21:10 | <automatic_jack> | Chutt: any idea how to work around that? |
| 21:10 | <Chutt> | automatic_jack, reconfigure the mythtv-database package and give it the right information this time. |
| 21:10 | <automatic_jack> | hmm |
| 21:10 | <automatic_jack> | I just did that. |
| 21:11 | <automatic_jack> | I gave it root for the administrator account |
| 21:11 | <Chutt> | other than that, no, i don't know |
| 21:11 | <automatic_jack> | and I gave it the password that I set up for the mysql root user. |
| 21:11 | <automatic_jack> | Failed to connect to database: Unknown database 'mythconverg' at -e line 5, <> line 1. |
| 21:11 | <paulproteus> | (I gave it no password, which is correct on a blank-slate mysql install.) |
| 21:11 | <paulproteus> | But perhaps we should stop pestering Chutt ;) |
| 21:11 | <Chutt> | figure out why it didn't setup the database, then. |
| 21:12 | <automatic_jack> | hmm. |
| 21:12 | <paulproteus> | Chutt, what's the non-Debian way to do this? I'd be happy to just do this "manually". |
| 21:12 | | * paulproteus realizes he should read the docs first |
| 21:12 | | * paulproteus withdraws the question and fires up mozilla |
| 21:12 | <paulproteus> | (and cd /usr/share/doc/mythtv) |
| 21:12 | <automatic_jack> | doesn't look like you can uninstall mythtv and all its other things. |
| 21:12 | <yebyen> | i can't wait for college and binge drinking |
| 21:13 | <automatic_jack> | blah. |
| 21:13 | <automatic_jack> | this is definitely annoying. |
| 21:15 | <automatic_jack> | hrr. |
| 21:18 | <automatic_jack> | is mythtv-database supposed to create the database? |
| 21:18 | <automatic_jack> | I assume yes. |
| 21:18 | <Chutt> | far as i know |
| 21:18 | <automatic_jack> | but I don't see why it's giving me this error that the database does not exist. |
| 21:18 | <Chutt> | probably because it couldn't create it =) |
| 21:18 | <automatic_jack> | rarr. |
| 21:18 | <automatic_jack> | I need more output from it then. |
| 21:19 | <Chutt> | it is just a script |
| 21:19 | <automatic_jack> | it prompts for the username and password, which I have verified are correct. |
| 21:19 | <mdz> | paulproteus: I may have broken new installations recently |
| 21:19 | <mdz> | but I doubt it |
| 21:20 | <automatic_jack> | mdz: I am getting that exact same error. |
| 21:20 | <mdz> | automatic_jack: but does it actually fail? |
| 21:20 | <automatic_jack> | well |
| 21:20 | <mdz> | paulproteus said "errors out" |
| 21:20 | <mdz> | but I really doubt that |
| 21:20 | <automatic_jack> | when I run mythbackend I get Access denied for user: 'mythtv@localhost' (Using password: YES) |
| 21:22 | <automatic_jack> | ok if I reconfigure mythtv-common and enter an appropriate password for the mythtv database user, I still can |
| 21:22 | <automatic_jack> | can't connect to the database as that user. |
| 21:23 | <mdz> | probably the database didn't get created; that would be a helpful thing to check |
| 21:23 | <automatic_jack> | remind me of the sql syntax to show databases? |
| 21:23 | <mdz> | it's "show databases" |
| 21:24 | <mdz> | coincidentally |
| 21:24 | <yebyen> | hahaha |

| 21:24 | <automatic_jack> | hmm |
| 21:24 | <automatic_jack> | doesn't like that. |
| 21:24 | <Chutt> | moegreen, hello? =) |
| 21:24 | <automatic_jack> | I just ran mysql -p and I'm in the interactive mode. |
| 21:25 | <automatic_jack> | there we go. |
| 21:25 | <Chutt> | show databases; |
| 21:25 | <automatic_jack> | yep |
| 21:25 | <automatic_jack> | +----------+ |
| 21:25 | <automatic_jack> | | Database | |
| 21:25 | <automatic_jack> | +----------+ |
| 21:25 | <automatic_jack> | | mysql | |
| 21:25 | <automatic_jack> | | test | |
| 21:25 | <automatic_jack> | that's it. |
| 21:25 | <automatic_jack> | so it isn't creating the database. |
| 21:25 | <Chutt> | so, no, it didn't create it |
| 21:25 | <automatic_jack> | hmm |
| 21:26 | <automatic_jack> | so yeah, when I reconfigure mythtv-database all it asks for is the admin user (root) and its password. I gave it those, and it doesn't work. |
| 21:26 | <automatic_jack> | so maybe I should forget about the packages and try it from source? |
| 21:27 | <mdz> | automatic_jack: give me a minute; I know what's wrong |
| 21:27 | <automatic_jack> | ok, cool :) |
| 21:27 | <automatic_jack> | the only reason I bothered with the packages was that I wanted to make sure I got the right dependencies. |
| 21:27 | <automatic_jack> | so if I could uninstall just the mythtv packages and keep the other stuff, and then build mythtv from source, that would be OK. |
| 21:28 | | * automatic_jack waits patiently |
| 21:28 | <automatic_jack> | incidentally, I hooked up the svideo for my card to my TV, but I do not get any output to it when I am on the console or in X. |
| 21:28 | <automatic_jack> | I have a Geforce GTS. |
| 21:29 | <automatic_jack> | Geforce 2 GTS that is. |
| 21:29 | <automatic_jack> | does anyone know if I need to do something to make the svideo output work? |
| 21:29 | <Chutt> | try booting with just that connected |
| 21:30 | <automatic_jack> | I think I did that. |
| 21:30 | <automatic_jack> | yeah I did, and it didn't output the console to the TV at least. |
| 21:30 | <Chutt> | that's what usually works with nvidia cards |
| 21:30 | <automatic_jack> | but my system doesn't boot to X. |
| 21:30 | <Chutt> | but i'm not familiar with anything that old |
| 21:30 | <automatic_jack> | maybe it would only output from X windows. |
| 21:31 | <automatic_jack> | but it wasn't working a little while ago. |
| 21:31 | <Chutt> | naw, should output everything |
| 21:31 | <automatic_jack> | before I came in here to find out why it wouldn't connect to the database :) |
| 21:31 | <automatic_jack> | ok, I'll have to look into that seperately. |
| 21:31 | <mdz> | paulproteus, automatic_jack: you're both on unstable, right? |
| 21:31 | <automatic_jack> | but I can test my setup on a monitor right? |
| 21:31 | <mdz> | 0.11-2 |
| 21:31 | <automatic_jack> | mdz: I am yes. |
| 21:31 | <Chutt> | automatic_jack, of course |
| 21:32 | <automatic_jack> | cool. |
| 21:32 | <Chutt> | i do all development on a regular monitor and stuff |
| 21:33 | <automatic_jack> | mdz: yeah I have 0.11-2 |
| 21:33 | <automatic_jack> | brb |
| 21:37 | <mdz> | paulproteus, automatic_jack: try the 0.11-3 I'm uploading right now |

| 21:40 | <Chutt> | well, i was going to mess around with trying to get the via mpeg decoder working |
| 21:40 | <Chutt> | but i can't since i'm not running one of the distributions the kernel modules works on |
| 21:42 | <automatic_jack> | mdz: downloading now. |
| 21:42 | <kja> | how close are you then? i've been running a promise fastrak driver on 'the wrong' kernel for a while now :) |
| 21:44 | <Chutt> | kja, not close enough |
| 21:44 | <automatic_jack> | mdz: hmm, I think that might have worked :) |
| 21:45 | <automatic_jack> | let me check... |
| 21:47 | <mdz> | I don't know why that broke it, but there was very little changed from 0.11-1 to 0.11-2 and I tested a clean install of 0.11-1 |
| 21:47 | <mdz> | automatic_jack: did it work? |
| 21:48 | <mdz> | I guess so. silence usually means it works |
| 21:48 | <mdz> | I only hear from anybody when it breaks |
| 21:48 | <mikegrb> | :) |
| 21:48 | <jkolb> | mdz: We love you! |
| 21:48 | <jkolb> | Better? |
| 21:49 | <mdz> | "worked for me" would be better :-) |
| 21:49 | <jkolb> | Not running debian anymore. |
| 21:49 | <kja> | Chutt: is that a video card driver or a separate mpeg driver? |
| 21:49 | <jkolb> | But, uh, worked for me! |
| 21:49 | <Chutt> | kja, both. |
| 21:50 | <Chutt> | couple kernel modules, etc |
| 21:51 | <kja> | you tried forcing them into the kernel? :) |
| 21:52 | <kja> | with a hammer and axe |
| 21:52 | <Chutt> | eh, i really don't care that much |
| 21:53 | <kja> | :) k, it's kinda risky... |
| 21:53 | <kja> | closed source drivers tend to interface little with the kernel.. |
| 21:54 | <automatic_jack> | I think it broke. |
| 21:54 | <automatic_jack> | mythbackend doesn't want to run. |
| 21:55 | <automatic_jack> | it says I have schema version 0 and it needs at least 1023 or something. |

| 22:18 | <mdz> | automatic_jack: select * from settings |
| 22:18 | <mdz> | oh, I know what happened |
| 22:18 | <mdz> | automatic_jack: mysqladmin -u root -p drop mythconverg && dpkg-reconfigure mythtv-database |
| 22:18 | <mdz> | it assumes that once the database is created, it's already populated with the schema |
| 22:18 | <mdz> | because it's a pain to check |
| 22:19 | <mdz> | this dbschemaver stuff is new and I don't do anything with it yet |
| 22:22 | <automatic_jack> | mdz: oh, I did the mysql -p mythconverg < mc.sql |
| 22:22 | <automatic_jack> | and that seemed to fix it... |
| 22:22 | <mdz> | automatic_jack: that'll fix it as well |
| 22:22 | <mdz> | that's essentially what that command would have done |
| 22:22 | <automatic_jack> | ok. now I just ran that cron entry to download channel data and put it in the database. |

| 22:50 | <automatic_jack> | ok I have two issues. |
| 22:50 | <automatic_jack> | when I run mythtv, it says it can't find /dev/dsp |
| 22:50 | <automatic_jack> | but that exists. |
| 22:50 | <automatic_jack> | and it also can't find osd.xml |
| 22:50 | <automatic_jack> | so it flips right to LiveTV mode, but all I see is a black screen. |
| 22:51 | <Chutt> | run mythfrontend. |
| 22:52 | <Chutt> | as the docs tell you to do |
| 22:52 | <automatic_jack> | oh, whoops. |
| 22:52 | <Chutt> | they don't even mention running mythtv that i'm aware of. |
| 22:52 | <automatic_jack> | yeah sorry, I guess I jumped to conclusions. |
| 22:52 | <mdz> | automatic_jack: rather than describing the error messages, paste them exactly so people can tell what you're talking about |
| 22:52 | <automatic_jack> | mdz: difficult - I would need an IRC client on the mythtv box. I guess I'll try to do that. |
| 22:52 | <mdz> | automatic_jack: or ssh |
| 22:53 | <mdz> | automatic_jack: you are running it as user 'mythtv', right? |
| 22:53 | <automatic_jack> | yes I am. |
| 22:53 | <Chutt> | mdz, he didn't run mythfrontend, and so doesn't have any of the settings. |
| 22:53 | <automatic_jack> | nod |
| 22:53 | <automatic_jack> | let me do that. |
| 22:53 | <mdz> | Chutt: yeah, the error about /dev/dsp doesn't make sense though |
| 22:54 | <mdz> | but that's definitely part of the problem |
| 22:54 | <paulproteus|lapt> | Oh, that reminds me, I forgot to build my ALSA drivers. |
| 22:54 | | * paulproteus|lapt waits for the install to finish, anyway |
| 22:54 | <automatic_jack> | oh, do I have to use ALSA? |
| 22:54 | <Chutt> | no, of course not. |
| 22:54 | <automatic_jack> | there is OSS support for my sound card so I compiled that into my kernel. |
| 22:54 | <automatic_jack> | ok I didn't think so. |
| 22:54 | <Chutt> | all that's discussed in the docs. |
| 22:55 | <mdz> | if the error said "no such device", then probably the driver isn't loaded |
| 22:55 | <automatic_jack> | yeah why don't I go read those and stop being such a dork, sorry :) |
| 22:55 | <automatic_jack> | usually I'm good at this whole "open source" thing. |
| 22:55 | <mdz> | /usr/share/doc/mythtv-doc |
| 22:55 | <automatic_jack> | thanks |
| 22:56 | <automatic_jack> | TV card (bt848) mixer support |
| 22:56 | <automatic_jack> | do I want to enable that at all? I assume not. |
| 22:57 | <automatic_jack> | I have a Bt878 so I guess it doesn't have an onboard mixer or whatever. |
| 22:57 | <automatic_jack> | hmm |
| 22:57 | <automatic_jack> | when I just cat /dev/dsp it says "no such device." |
| 22:58 | <automatic_jack> | so I'm guessing that indicates my sound card is not supported in the kernel. |
| 22:58 | <mdz> | <mdz> if the error said "no such device", then probably the driver isn't loaded |
| 22:59 | <automatic_jack> | I compiled it in. |
| 22:59 | <automatic_jack> | so my guess is I compiled in the wrong thing. |
| 23:00 | <mdz> | I recommend just using a stock kernel |
| 23:00 | <mdz> | and running discover |
| 23:00 | | * paulproteus|lapt sticks his hand up |
| 23:00 | <mdz> | or if you want to compile your own kernel, compile everything as modules |
| 23:00 | <paulproteus|lapt> | "What does error creating /root/.qt mean ? The backend doesn't seem to be starting." |
| 23:01 | | * paulproteus|lapt reconfigures mythtv-database for good measure |
| 23:02 | <mdz> | paulproteus|lapt: harmless message |
| 23:02 | <mdz> | nothing to do with the database and nothing wrong with mythtv |
| 23:02 | <paulproteus|lapt> | That's what I figured. |

| 23:37 | <paulproteus|lapt> | mdz, thank you dearly for your updated packages :) |
| 23:37 | <paulproteus|lapt> | I hope you'll forgive me for only using mythmusic and mythweather. |
| 23:37 | <paulproteus|lapt> | (And mythgallery, and mythweb.) |
| 23:38 | <o_cee> | how far has the XvMC support come along Chutt? is it worth even trying it? and, uh.. what's it supposed to do? i mean how good should it be? |
| 23:43 | <automatic_jack> | hmm. I still get nothing but a black screen when I try to watch TV. |
| 23:43 | <automatic_jack> | it is recording, because there's a video file created in the media store and it grows. |
| 23:44 | <o_cee> | i use to get htat. reload ivtv and make sure you've got snd-mixer/pcm-oss loaded. |
| 23:44 | <o_cee> | btw, why doesn't the alsa section meantion that myth doesn't actually use alsa? it says nothing about the oss stuff, right? |
| 23:45 | <automatic_jack> | o_cee: what's ivtv? |

| 23:45 | <o_cee> | oh, maybe you aren't using a pvr[23]50 |
| 23:46 | <automatic_jack> | no, I have a TV Wonder VE. |
| 23:46 | <o_cee> | then nevermind the first part |
| 23:46 | <o_cee> | check your soundmodeules |
| 23:46 | <automatic_jack> | sound doesn't seem to be working. I don't think I compiled support for my card right. |
| 23:47 | <automatic_jack> | sound needs to work for me to see video? |
| 23:47 | <o_cee> | that usually fucks things up |
| 23:47 | <automatic_jack> | how come? |
| 23:47 | | * o_cee doesn't know |
| 23:47 | <o_cee> | fix your sound |
| 23:47 | <automatic_jack> | yeah |
| 23:47 | <automatic_jack> | I'll have to sooner or later. |
| 23:48 | <automatic_jack> | also, my svideo doesn't seem to actually output anything to my tv. |
| 23:48 | <automatic_jack> | not a mythtv problem obviously. |
| 23:48 | <automatic_jack> | but I have a Geforce 2 GTS. any idea why that wouldn't work? |
| 23:49 | <o_cee> | you don't get any output to your tv? no console or nothing? |
| 23:50 | <automatic_jack> | nope. |
| 23:50 | <automatic_jack> | I was hoping to complete my whole setup on the TV. |
| 23:50 | <automatic_jack> | so I booted with the svideo connected, but got nothing. |
| 23:50 | <o_cee> | well then that's your biggest problem i guess. |
| 23:50 | <automatic_jack> | so I had to drag over a monitor. |
| 23:51 | <automatic_jack> | yeah :) |
| 23:51 | <automatic_jack> | I can troubleshoot that on the web. |
| 23:51 | <automatic_jack> | but I just figured someone here might know. |
| 23:51 | <o_cee> | my card just boots up when there's a tv connected. that's done from the gfx card firmware |
| 23:51 | <o_cee> | make sure the tv is on when you turn the computer on? |
| 23:57 | <automatic_jack> | hmm. |
| 23:57 | <berli> | automatic_jack: using the nvidia drivers? |
| 23:57 | <automatic_jack> | berli: yeah. |
| 23:57 | <automatic_jack> | I am routing it through a switch box, and I think I had not switched the input before I booted the system. |
| 23:57 | <automatic_jack> | but I didn |
| 23:57 | <automatic_jack> | didn't think the TV had to be connected when the system first booted up. |
| 23:58 | <berli> | automatic_jack: if it doesn't detect a device, it won't show up at boot |
| 23:58 | <o_cee> | but you're not sure. try that first. might be like that in order to find it |
| 23:58 | <berli> | automatic_jack: but, to get it to show up in X, there's two lines or so you need to add |
| 23:59 | <berli> | automatic_jack: ok, so there are a number of lines |
| 23:59 | <automatic_jack> | berli: ah, ok. |
| 23:59 | <berli> | is there a paste bot in this channel? |
