| 00:00 | <mikegrb> | ahh |
| 00:01 | <mikegrb> | that is in the howto but it is easy you just need to do a "export QTDIR=<dir>" |
| 00:01 | <mrallen> | crap, missed that |
| 00:01 | <mikegrb> | likely possibility is /usr/share/qt3 or some such |
| 00:01 | <mrallen> | working now |
| 00:02 | <mikegrb> | you might try locate qt3 |
| 00:02 | <mikegrb> | okay :-) |

| 00:31 | <mrallen> | mysql is running |
| 00:33 | <Captain_Murdoch> | that's covered in the howto I think. |
| 00:34 | <mikegrb> | Captain_Murdoch: is there already a method for the frontend to determine if the backend is recording? |
| 00:34 | <mrallen> | is 'Installing and using MythTV' the same as howto? |
| 00:34 | <mikegrb> | I know going to live tv it checks for a free tuner but I'm interested in if anything is recording |

| 00:35 | <mikegrb> | mrallen: basically part of the mysql stuff is missing, you need mysql support in mythtv |
| 00:35 | <mikegrb> | er in qt |
| 00:35 | <mikegrb> | sorry, it's late |
| 00:35 | <Captain_Murdoch> | mikegrb. I don't think so. I'd like to have a way so ask the master backend and have it reply "tuner 0 on host X is recording Monster Garage, tuner 1 on host X is free, tuner 0 on host Y is recording 'Nascar'" |
| 00:36 | <mrallen> | ah. yes, missing qt-mysql package |
| 00:36 | <mikegrb> | Captain_Murdoch: I'm aiming to change the led on the xbox |
| 00:37 | <mikegrb> | Captain_Murdoch: so I guess I get to add a new query for the backend to recognize |
| 00:38 | <Captain_Murdoch> | would be nice. :) I think current code on the playbackbox screen just assumes something is recording if the current time is before the endtime. |
| 00:38 | <mikegrb> | I believe you are right |
| 00:38 | <mrallen> | any way to use mouse to config mythtv or do i absolutely need lirc + remote at this point? |
| 00:38 | <mikegrb> | there was a problem with it not taking into account the pre-roll when it was first added |
| 00:39 | <Captain_Murdoch> | keyboard |
| 00:39 | <mrallen> | thanks |
| 00:40 | <mikegrb> | I guess I'll look at the code that was added for exectv as a starting point |

| 00:41 | <mikegrb> | I emailed the guy, dan I think, who did the lcd stuff because he was planning on adding this support for lcd's to see if he has any code written |
| 00:41 | <Captain_Murdoch> | fairly easy overall. look over the patch maybe to see what was needed for everything. |
| 00:41 | <mikegrb> | right |
| 00:42 | <mikegrb> | then I'll look at your auto-delete stuff to see how to make a timer work w/ c++ 'n qt ... look at the lcd stuff for a configure option --enable-xbox :-) |
| 00:42 | <mikegrb> | then it can add setup options for led colors to use and how often to check and what not |
| 00:43 | <mikegrb> | heh maybe that polling the backend every so often will keep the frontend from getting swapped out on my xbox, then I wont have to wait 10 sec after a key press everytime I come back after a while |
| 00:46 | <CaCtus491> | does the frontend on the xbox work well? |
| 00:46 | <mikegrb> | yes, so far anyway |

| 00:47 | <CaCtus491> | cool, I was thinking about getting one to use as a front end :) |
| 00:48 | <CaCtus491> | how long does it take to boot, and does it have an limitations compared to a pc? (as far as myth is concerned?) |
| 00:48 | <mikegrb> | well all the way into myth 45ish seconds, we leave it on all the time |
| 00:49 | <mikegrb> | I like it better in terms of the remote, the kernel driver for the dvd remote works as a usb HID device so as far as the computer is concerned, the remote is a usb keyboard |
| 00:49 | <mikegrb> | no lirc or what not to worry abt |
| 00:51 | <CaCtus491> | all the overlay and stuff works ok? visualisations in mythmusic? |
| 00:53 | <mikegrb> | I haven't installed mythmusic but yes |
| 00:53 | <CaCtus491> | cool |
| 00:54 | <mikegrb> | there is a guy on the lists that has made a mini linux dist for myth on the xbox |
| 00:55 | <CaCtus491> | one last thing then before I go out and get one :)... if I have a dvb card in the backend, can the xbox handle the mpeg stream ok (for live tv)? then if I transcode recordings to mpeg4, it could play them ok? |
| 00:56 | <mikegrb> | I don't have dvb so don't know but I use mpeg4 |
| 00:57 | <mikegrb> | it is fine with that and mythvideo runs fine playing divx's over nfs |

| 01:07 | <hadees> | i am starting to work on for powermate support for mythtv |
| 01:07 | <mikegrb> | :-) |
| 01:08 | <mikegrb> | night all |
| 01:08 | <hadees> | it looks like a volume knob and i need some help on what to do with a part of it |
| 01:08 | <hadees> | see there is a led behind the knob that can blink and change brightness |
| 01:09 | <hadees> | but i am not sure what to have it attached to in mythtv |
| 01:09 | <hadees> | any ideas would be great |
| 01:10 | <CaCtus491> | ...I just started playing with myth a few days ago, it's such a great program! My main problem is that the tv reception is fairly average, with the tuner card (winfast 2000xp) plugged in, even \x91normal\x92 tv reception is poor. Unplug the capture card and it becomes perfect again. Any suggestions? |
| 01:10 | <CaCtus491> | hadees: whats a 'powermate'? :) |
| 01:10 | <hadees> | http://www.griffintechnology.com/products/powermate/ |
| 01:10 | <hadees> | it is an input device that looks like a volume knob |
| 01:13 | <CaCtus491> | hadees: use it to indicate if myth is recording :) |
| 01:13 | <hadees> | CaCtus491 are you using a splitter? |
| 01:13 | <CaCtus491> | hadees: yeah |
| 01:13 | <hadees> | when you unplug the capture card do you also remove the splitter |
| 01:14 | <CaCtus491> | nope, just unplug the coax from the back of the capture card |
| 01:16 | <hadees> | post your problem on avsforum.com |
| 01:17 | <hadees> | in the normal htpc forum |
| 01:17 | <hadees> | not the linux one, you won't get a response for a while |
| 01:17 | <CaCtus491> | I was thinking of moving the card to the slot furthest away from the cpu? |
| 01:17 | <CaCtus491> | ok |
| 01:17 | <CaCtus491> | thanks |
| 01:17 | <hadees> | and the problem should in windows as well as linux |

| 02:49 | <Chutt> | then i said, if you wanted something better, submit a patch so i could look it over. |
| 02:49 | <Chutt> | but funnily enough, that never happened. |
| 02:49 | <knight-> | Anyhow, you're rihgt, I'm wrong, and I'm happy to stfu now. |
| 02:50 | -!- | snorp|out is now known as snorp |
| 02:50 | <Chutt> | have you emailed the list about the problem with the pvr-250? |
| 02:51 | <Chutt> | someone out there's probably gotten something similar before.. |
| 02:51 | <knight-> | I'll probably proceed with that. |
| 02:52 | <Chutt> | there's nothing in the direct code path that i can think of that would use any cpu |
| 02:52 | <Chutt> | which is why i'm fairly sure it's a config issue |
| 02:54 | <Chutt> | or it could be all tmk's fault |
| 02:55 | <knight-> | heh |
| 03:00 | <FryGuy> | personally I just want both my tuners to start working again |
| 03:00 | <FryGuy> | can I blame that on tmk too? :) |
| 03:01 | <Chutt> | yeah |
| 03:01 | <FryGuy> | although I think if one of the tuners is borked, it causes the backend to crash just after starting to record |
| 03:02 | -!- | snorp is now known as snorp|out |
| 03:02 | <FryGuy> | it gives the warnings on startup, but still thinks it should record |
| 03:03 | <Chutt> | what warnings? |
| 03:03 | <FryGuy> | something like unable to read from /dev/video1 |
| 03:04 | <Chutt> | ah |
| 03:04 | <Chutt> | yeah, i doubt it deals with that at all |
| 03:04 | <knight-> | Chutt, anyone submit any code for having chained storage dirs? |
| 03:04 | <Chutt> | nope, no one has |
| 03:04 | <knight-> | Ok, perhaps I'll look into thta. |
| 03:04 | <knight-> | that |
| 03:04 | <Chutt> | cool. |
| 03:04 | <Chutt> | lotta people just use lvm for that |
| 03:05 | <FryGuy> | at one point I had them both working, but when I rebooted only one showed up |
| 03:05 | <knight-> | Yeah, but then those drives are basically permanently connected right? |
| 03:05 | <FryGuy> | knight: multiple backends :) |
| 03:05 | <Chutt> | don't think so |
| 03:05 | <knight-> | Having drive spillage would be safer and independant of raid, etc |

| 03:19 | <tmk> | chutt: you around? |
| 03:19 | <Chutt> | tmk, yup |
| 03:19 | <tmk> | cool. If you can, woudl you mind installing lkcd? |
| 03:19 | <tmk> | lkcd.sf.net |
| 03:19 | <tmk> | saves crashdumps |
| 03:19 | <Chutt> | lythe, there's an error message on the console you ran myth from |
| 03:19 | <lythe> | nope |
| 03:19 | <lythe> | it just says connecting to master backend |
| 03:19 | <tmk> | so when your myth crashes due to pvr250, it'll give me a traceback |
| 03:20 | <tmk> | i think i know what it is, but it'd make sure |
| 03:20 | <lythe> | the backend server doesnt print any connection message either, if it does at all |
| 03:20 | <Chutt> | lythe, then it's not able to connect to the backend. |

| 03:21 | <tmk> | great |
| 03:21 | <Chutt> | haven't rebooted that machine in awhile |
| 03:21 | <tmk> | i think it's a schedule during irq time |
| 03:21 | <tmk> | ie semaphore sleep |
| 03:21 | <tmk> | which i'll be fixing as soon as i get the decoder going properly |

| 03:57 | <jarodwilson> | I'll try to catch him tomorrow then... |
| 03:58 | <harrih> | i have over 200000 records, is this normal ? I'm investigating a problem that freezes the frontend when fast forwarding |
| 03:58 | <Chutt> | harrih, lots. |
| 03:59 | <harrih> | does anyone else have this problem : http://www.gossamer-threads.com/perl/mailarc/gforum.cgi?post=77629;search_string=rebuffering;guest=1075237&t=search_engine#77629 |
| 04:00 | <jarodwilson> | Nope. What capture card? |
| 04:00 | <harrih> | tvwonder ve |
| 04:04 | <harrih> | well, at least some other people seem to have the same problem, so if I hosed my install somehow, I'm not the only one :( |
| 04:05 | <jarodwilson> | Hm. I certainly can't be of much help. |
| 04:05 | <jarodwilson> | I've got a PVR-250 |
| 04:05 | <jarodwilson> | (well, and an AVerTV Studio, but I haven't done much w/it yet) |
| 04:06 | <harrih> | I was thinking of getting a PVR-250 but the recording filesize put me off |

| 04:08 | <jarodwilson> | Yes, the PVR-250 file sizes are pretty big... but you can transcode post-record now. |
| 04:09 | <jarodwilson> | For a sound card, I've had very good experiences with several SoundBlaster Audigy OEM cards |
| 04:10 | <jarodwilson> | For a bit nicer card, I'm rather partial to the M-Audio Revolution 7.1 |

| 13:28 | <tzanger> | jkolb: I only have a BT878 card right now. eventually I want to do DVB capture since I am on ExpressVu (in Canada) |
| 13:29 | <vektor> | tzanger: Are you familiar with the issues of decrypting DVB content for ExpressVu? |
| 13:29 | <tmk> | hmm |
| 13:30 | <tmk> | i read a report that the decoder code in CVS works |
| 13:30 | <tmk> | much to my surprise |
| 13:30 | <tmk> | since it doesn't for me (it's choppy) |
| 13:30 | <vektor> | I have seen some of these add-on PCI cards for the encryption cardreader things, but I'm still unclear on whether or not it actually works in Linux with ExpressVu. |
| 13:30 | <tmk> | i'm wondering if it's a slow-box issue |
| 13:30 | <vektor> | The kernel-dvb driver is all done by PAL users who receive non-encrypted content. |
| 13:30 | <tzanger> | vektor: yeah but these DVB cards take the CAM (they're like $700 from Germany IIRC) -- so it's a "plain" DVB signal once it's done |
| 13:31 | <vektor> | So you'd buy some CAM module, am I getting this right? |
| 13:31 | <tzanger> | well no I'd use the CAM (smart card) from my current expressvu receiver |
| 13:31 | <tzanger> | I am a paying subscriber |
| 13:32 | <vektor> | Yeah but then you need a place to stick the card :) |
| 13:32 | <vektor> | I mean, I don't think the Hauppauge DVB card comes with one by default. |
| 13:32 | <vektor> | It's something you have to purchase separately. |
| 13:32 | <tzanger> | vektor: yes, they have a slot |
| 13:32 | <vektor> | Oh? |
| 13:32 | <tzanger> | yeah let me see if I can dig up a link |
| 13:32 | <vektor> | So, then why aren't more people using this? :) |
| 13:32 | | * vektor feels like buying one. |

| 13:36 | <mechou> | hey, choenig, how are you doing? |
| 13:36 | <choenig> | fine :-) |
| 13:37 | <choenig> | mechou: did you make any advance ? |
| 13:37 | <mechou> | choenig, I gave up trying getting wol to work on k7s5a |
| 13:37 | <choenig> | sad |
| 13:37 | <choenig> | and how about the bios stuff? |
| 13:37 | <mechou> | figured out any short can restart computer, which was what happened yesterday. |
| 13:38 | <mechou> | nvram is also sad.... |
| 13:38 | <choenig> | why? |
| 13:38 | <mechou> | do I need to call hwclock -systohc if I'm using ntp? |
| 13:39 | <mechou> | nvram complains my linux system is not in sync with rtc.... |
| 13:39 | <tzanger> | http://www.dvb-portal.de/oscn/modules.php?name=oscn_catalog&file=advanced_search_result.php&keywords=PCI&x=0&y=0 |
| 13:39 | <tzanger> | I thought it was one of those, but neither show a daughercard for the CAM |
| 13:39 | <choenig> | mechou: don't know, never had any issues like that |
| 13:39 | <tzanger> | actually the TT-DVBsat PCI 1.3 seems to show it |
| 13:40 | <mechou> | and thats absolutely correct in the case of ntp, Bios clock only gets read on startup (and written on shutdown) |
| 13:40 | <tzanger> | but Seca, Alphacrypt and Viaaccess (no nagravision) |
| 13:40 | <Chutt> | there. |
| 13:41 | <Chutt> | mostly have the cle266 decoder working |
| 13:41 | <mechou> | choenig, are you using ntp on your systems? |
| 13:41 | <choenig> | mechou: and it works after you syched it? |
| 13:41 | <choenig> | yes |

| 13:43 | <mechou> | ok, do "nvram-wakeup -D" and tell me what's on the last 4 lines |

| 13:46 | <choenig> | oh I hate that sf.net crap |
| 13:47 | <tzanger> | damned nagravision |
| 13:48 | <mechou> | choenig, because rtc on most systems is notoriously inaccurate, I think possibly wol (with ntp) is a better sol'n. I'm going to change out the k7s5a... |
| 13:49 | <choenig> | mechou: thats right, my systems are off > 1 min/day |
| 13:49 | <mechou> | and I don't think it's ntp's "job" to keep rtc to millisecond accuracy.... |
| 13:50 | <mechou> | that's the whole point of using ntp, right? :) |
| 13:50 | <choenig> | its the problem, when the computer is off. when its on you don't have to care about the rtc |
| 13:51 | <choenig> | a nice little external clock which you set from the computer would be a neat sollution |
| 13:51 | <mechou> | this wakeup stuff is much more a PITA than I originally imagined, mostly because of this POS k7s5a.... |
| 13:52 | <mechou> | so this is going take me a while ;) |
| 13:53 | <choenig> | have you tried diff'rent bios versions? in the usenet I read, that that could help |
| 13:54 | <mechou> | I tried scouring newsnet regarding the m/b. a lot of puzzled people wondering if wol works on m/b at all. Nothing real dinitive, like someone saying "I got wol to work this way...." |
| 13:54 | <choenig> | yeah, thats what I read, too |
| 13:55 | <mikegrb> | hmmm any recommendations on a command line tool to capture an image from a V4L source? |
| 13:56 | <tzanger> | what are (in your opinions') best choices for full-res vid cap cards |
| 13:56 | <Chutt> | pvr-250/350 |
| 13:57 | <Chutt> | easily =) |
| 13:57 | <tzanger> | that's the hauppage card? |
| 13:58 | <mikegrb> | ahh got it with v4lctrl |
| 13:58 | <Chutt> | yup |
| 13:58 | <Chutt> | good quality, no cpu usage on recording |
| 13:58 | <tzanger> | hmm |
| 13:58 | <Chutt> | slightly higher playback requirements |
| 13:59 | <Chutt> | and slightly higher storage requirements, but, that's more than offset by the hardware encoding |
| 14:00 | <mechou> | choenig, it would be nice if nvram-wakeup was smart enough to look in the drift file and set rtc w/o regard wheter it is in sync with system time. It just needs to be "close" |
| 14:00 | <mechou> | when the system is up,that is.... |
| 14:01 | <jkolb> | Chutt: The CLE266 is the via on-board decoder? |
| 14:01 | <Chutt> | yup. |
| 14:01 | <Chutt> | well, it's the chipset name |

| 14:02 | <jkolb> | I flew back from Oregon and went straight from the airport to the observatory. Still got there too late to use the big scope. |

| 14:03 | <mechou> | what observatory in OR?? |
| 14:03 | <jkolb> | Flew back from OR. To Orlando. Went to the observatory at UCF. |

| 14:10 | <mechou> | choenig, yeah, I don't think it should be too big a problem. probably setting rtc through ntpdc would be safest (makes coreections to drift file at the same time).... |

| 18:51 | <knight-> | oh maybe mythtv bound against /usr/lib/liblirc_client* and not /usr/local/lib/liblirc_client* |

| 19:13 | <jarodwilson> | Yes, tmk, everyone SHOULD use ivtv! |
| 19:13 | <tmk> | :) |
| 19:13 | <jarodwilson> | And the grey hauppauge remote work perfectly when set up right. |
| 19:13 | <jarodwilson> | :) |
| 19:14 | <jarodwilson> | Frankly, I'm finding all other cards to be relative junk, compared w/the PVR-x50s |
| 19:14 | <n1hck> | so if anyone is wondering.. PCHDTV card is awsome |
| 19:14 | <jarodwilson> | (I have 3 other cards besides the PVR-250, and thy all suck) |
| 19:14 | <n1hck> | but working with an ivtv card at the same time |
| 19:14 | <n1hck> | is sketchy |
| 19:14 | <tmk> | cool, what resolution does it capture at? |
| 19:14 | <n1hck> | 1920x1088 |
| 19:14 | <n1hck> | all 18 ASTC digital formans |
| 19:14 | <jarodwilson> | That would be the only other card I'd take over a PVR-x50 |
| 19:14 | <n1hck> | formats |
| 19:14 | <n1hck> | but thats the highest |
| 19:14 | <tmk> | is it mpg2 or what |
| 19:15 | <jarodwilson> | I'm planning on getting one soon too... |
| 19:15 | <n1hck> | well ivtv card and pchdtv dont like to do stuff at the same time so I have to reboot to switch back to the other one |
| 19:15 | <jarodwilson> | hdtv is streamed in mpeg2 |
| 19:15 | <tmk> | yeah that's what i thought |
| 19:15 | <n1hck> | so by default I boot with ivtv but if I want I switch to hdtv and if i want to switch back i have to reboot |
| 19:15 | <jarodwilson> | so the card doesn't even have to encode; just write to disk |
| 19:15 | <tmk> | you can't just rmmod ivtv? |
| 19:15 | <jarodwilson> | Huh. |
| 19:15 | <n1hck> | here is what I do |
| 19:15 | <n1hck> | boot with ivtv |
| 19:15 | <jarodwilson> | I'll have to see if I can't get both working at once... |
| 19:15 | <n1hck> | ok i wanna do hdtv now |
| 19:16 | <n1hck> | rmmod ivtv modprobe bttv (modified for dtv stuff) the pchdtv driver |
| 19:16 | <n1hck> | ok hdtv stuff. now I want ivtv stuff back |
| 19:16 | <n1hck> | rmmod bttv |
| 19:16 | <n1hck> | modprobe ivtv |
| 19:16 | <tmk> | oh ok |
| 19:16 | <n1hck> | capture mpeg CRASHES |
| 19:16 | <n1hck> | so I found rebooting at this point allows ivtv to work again |
| 19:16 | <tmk> | hm. define crashes |
| 19:16 | <n1hck> | lock up machine |
| 19:16 | <tmk> | what error |
| 19:16 | <n1hck> | ivtv itself crashes and locks my machine completley |
| 19:16 | <n1hck> | no error |
| 19:16 | <n1hck> | just FREEZ |
| 19:16 | <tmk> | well, it probably generates an oops of some kind |
| 19:16 | <n1hck> | I hear a blip of audio and a FREEZ and thats that |
| 19:16 | <jarodwilson> | Not good. |
| 19:16 | <n1hck> | probably |
| 19:17 | <tmk> | n1hck, are you near that box now? |
| 19:17 | <tmk> | i have some new code that might fix the crash |
| 19:17 | <n1hck> | in any case, im sure they will work better once dtv stuff is in bttv and when ivtv matures im sure it will be better |
| 19:17 | <n1hck> | I am |
| 19:17 | <jarodwilson> | Is it possible both are trying to use /dev/video0 in some incompatible way? |
| 19:17 | <n1hck> | I am actually |

| 19:20 | <knight-> | n1hck, dtv stuff? |
| 19:21 | <knight-> | jarodwilson, i copied ivtv/utils/lircd-g.conf to /etc/lircd.conf and it works fine with irw, but mythfrontend doesnt even move... i copied lircrc to ~/.mythtv/lircrc too |
| 19:22 | <jarodwilson> | your lircrc file should actually go in ~/.lircrc |
| 19:22 | <knight-> | i have it there too |
| 19:22 | <jarodwilson> | make sure irxevent is started |
| 19:23 | <knight-> | uhhh |
| 19:23 | <jarodwilson> | then everything SHOULD work |
| 19:23 | <knight-> | i'm talking about native lirc |
| 19:23 | <jarodwilson> | Aha. |
| 19:23 | <knight-> | irxevent works fine |
| 19:23 | <jarodwilson> | My mistake. |
| 19:23 | <jarodwilson> | I haven't played w/native yet |
| 19:23 | <knight-> | ahh |
| 19:23 | <jarodwilson> | Where is your lircrc from? |
| 19:23 | <knight-> | ivtv |
| 19:24 | <jarodwilson> | The one I'm thinking of relies on irxevent, but then I haven't looked at recent versions... |
| 19:24 | <knight-> | right, so is there a native mythtv lircrc version? |
| 19:25 | <jarodwilson> | Not sure yet. I'm sure someone has one, otherwise there'd be no way to test the functionality... |
| 19:25 | <knight-> | right |
| 19:25 | <jarodwilson> | But the one from ivtv most likely won't cut it, since everything relies on irxevent |
| 19:25 | <Chutt> | posted to the mailing list along with the initial native lirc patch. |
| 19:25 | <jarodwilson> | I'm not sure what changes are needed. |

| 19:26 | <Chutt> | yup. |
| 19:27 | <mattfelsen> | i'm still getting blocky fonts in myth...i installed msttcorefonts and set up defoma (added the font paths) but no luck. i think it might be the actual font files though because the sasquatch osd, which uses its own tahoma.ttf, looks fine |
| 19:27 | <jarodwilson> | So just drop in a new lircrc, and I should be golden, right? :) |
| 19:28 | <Chutt> | amazing, things compile again |
| 19:28 | <sc00p> | speaking of native lirc support, does anyone know how to get Page_Up and Page_Down working properly? |
| 19:28 | <knight-> | jarod, as long as you enabled lirc |
| 19:28 | <Chutt> | now time to see if they work. |
| 19:28 | <knight-> | in settings.pro |
| 19:28 | <jarodwilson> | Ah. |
| 19:28 | <Chutt> | the 0.11 rpms don't, i don't think. |
| 19:28 | <jarodwilson> | I'm running it from the 0.11 ATrpms |
| 19:29 | <jarodwilson> | I'll talk to Axel and see about cutting some rpms w/native lirc enabled |
| 19:29 | <mattfelsen> | well if we're on the subject of lirc...do the keys [, ], and | have names that are supposed to be used in .lircrc? |
| 19:29 | <mattfelsen> | channel up/down works, but volume up/down/mute doesn't |
| 19:29 | <mattfelsen> | and yea, i checked button names to make sure |
| 19:30 | <knight-> | fyi, http://www.gossamer-threads.com/perl/mailarc/gforum.cgi?do=post_attachment;postatt_id=1647;guest=1087369&t=search_engine is the link to the lircrc file included with the initial native lirc patch |
| 19:30 | <knight-> | to be placed in ~/.mythtv |
| 19:31 | <jarodwilson> | danke |
| 19:31 | <mattfelsen> | oh, and on the blocky font note...the sasquatch osd looks nice and smooth, but the normal theme is blocky like the others |
| 19:32 | <knight-> | but it doesnt seem to help |
| 19:32 | <knight-> | still no response from mythfrontend |
| 19:32 | <jarodwilson> | Hm... |
| 19:36 | <mattfelsen> | and back to lirc...where is a list of key names that are supposed to be used? |

| 20:00 | <knight-> | ahh distclean |
| 20:00 | <knight-> | ok |
| 20:02 | <mattfelsen> | is there a difference between clean and distclean? |
| 20:03 | <sc00p> | mattfelsen: are you using irxevent or the native lirc support? |
| 20:03 | <mattfelsen> | irxevent for now |
| 20:03 | <knight-> | i'm using native |
| 20:03 | <sc00p> | for irxevent, mute is Shift-bar |

| 22:08 | <mikegrb> | Captain_Murdoch_: sent... right now it returns the number of in progress recordings but the line sent from the frontend is passed to the function so I figured default action would be return the number and if there were arguments that could ask for other stuff eg details of what is being recorded like you were interested in |
| 22:08 | <ahbritto> | I will pay more attention in the future. |
| 22:09 | <ahbritto> | Captain_Murdoch_: Would you like me to place a few shows on a web server for download? |
| 22:09 | <Captain_Murdoch_> | ahbritto: just trying to figure out why it's messing up. do you recall what kind of logo that station uses? |
| 22:10 | <ahbritto> | Extra-bright (whitish) small in the lower right corner. |
| 22:11 | <mikegrb> | Captain_Murdoch_: I'm sure the compile problem is simple but I'm not certain what is causing it.... it complains abt a function not existing, I guess a possibility is it isn't in the header as the HTTP stuff is at the bottom so the function would still be defined first |
| 22:11 | <Captain_Murdoch_> | ahbritto: might just be a good idea to wait until I commit the logo detection stuff and see if that helps out. is the logo opaque or transparent? |
| 22:11 | <mikegrb> | I'm gonna check that |
| 22:11 | <ahbritto> | Transparent |

| 22:15 | <mikegrb> | agh |
| 22:15 | <mikegrb> | thank you mucho :-) |
| 22:15 | <Chutt> | captain_murdoch, committed stuff |
| 22:16 | <Chutt> | basically, i made the videooutput class own the video buffers |
| 22:16 | <mikegrb> | Captain_Murdoch_: I thought I copy n' pasted it from my trial run with the http stuff oh well <g> |
| 22:16 | <mikegrb> | thank you very much |
| 22:16 | <Chutt> | and made a VideoOutputNull class for stuff that's not actually displaying (like your commercial detection code) |
| 22:17 | <mikegrb> | Captain_Murdoch_: I'm going to finish this tonight if I have to not go to sleep :) |
| 22:17 | <Chutt> | it works for preview pixmaps/video, but i didn't test the commercial detector |
| 22:17 | <Chutt> | but the changes were pretty minor, so it shouldn't be an issue |
| 22:17 | -!- | snorp is now known as snorp|out |
| 22:17 | <Captain_Murdoch_> | chutt, I'll go update and run comm detection on a show comparing new results to original. |
| 22:17 | <Chutt> | thanks =) |

| 22:21 | <Captain_Murdoch> | ahbritto: do you run CVS? |
| 22:21 | <ahbritto> | Not usually, not for myth, but I could. |
| 22:21 | <Chutt> | current cvs may be a tad unstable |
| 22:22 | <newman234> | hey guys i have 2 questions ... 1) I don't have the /etc/init.d/lircd file but everything seems to be installed and 2) Although i can successfully test my remote using irw, i get an error message from irxevent saying it can't find the config file .. any ideas? |
| 22:22 | <Chutt> | i've committed quite a bit of crap today |
| 22:22 | <Captain_Murdoch> | just curious. I'll probably put the logo detection stuff in CVS in about a week and a half. don't think I'll get to it before I have to go out of town. |
| 22:23 | <ahbritto> | Captain_Murdoch: Would I need cvs, or could I just replace the file in v0.11? |
| 22:23 | <newman234> | btw i have myth tv up and running... with out the remote of course because of the failure of the irwevent app |
| 22:23 | <Captain_Murdoch> | it's modifying about 3 files and I doubt they'd be compatible with 0.11 since there's been a few changes including Chutt's stuff just now. |
| 22:25 | <ahbritto> | Captain_Murdoch: I have a few machines, I can compile with cvs on one, just to do commerical detection testing. |
| 22:25 | <ahbritto> | Whenever you're ready... |
| 22:25 | <Captain_Murdoch> | ok. I'll try to let you know when I've got that in so you can test oxygen. |
| 22:26 | <ahbritto> | Also, bravo seems unreliable. |
| 22:26 | <Captain_Murdoch> | ok, I have that. I'll try to find something to record and test. |
| 22:26 | <ahbritto> | try the west wing. |
| 22:26 | <kja> | yeay, finally my myth was stable enough to build a release version, horray ;) |
| 22:26 | <ahbritto> | Captain_Murdoch: thanks again. :) |
| 22:26 | <Chutt> | kja, so is that dvb stuff stable? |
| 22:27 | <Chutt> | i've been not applying patches since i was breaking everything |
| 22:29 | <Chutt> | kja, oh, and you didn't include a link in your latest dvb patch |
| 22:31 | <kja> | it's very good here, but i'll run it for some days just to verify.. |
| 22:31 | <kja> | thanks for the reminder, fixed now :) |
| 22:31 | <Chutt> | in the email announcing it, i meant |
| 22:31 | <kja> | yea, just replyed to it =) |
| 22:33 | <kja> | i also have some reports that it has some problems on DVB-T/C |
| 22:33 | <Chutt> | oh, are you still using the xvmc stuff? |
| 22:33 | <Chutt> | i'll have that fixed up so it can still play back software encodes soon |
| 22:34 | <kja> | no, haven't tried it in a bit...are down to just over 10% load on the normal output, so... |
| 22:34 | <Chutt> | ah |
| 22:35 | <kja> | but what the heck, now that i'm running a stable system, it would be a refreshment to have some bugs in there again :) |
| 22:39 | <kja> | i'm pondering on whether expanded cam support or dvb hardware decoding should be my next *thing* |

| 23:33 | <Captain_Murdoch> | wait till you start getting "when are you gonna write feature XYZ" emails. :) |
| 23:35 | <Captain_Murdoch> | Chutt, commercial detection still seems to work as normal except for the fact that it now prints that "Over/underscanning" message. Can we only print that if winw and winh are non-zero in VideoOutput::Init() |
| 23:39 | <bline> | it was about the lirc stuff, i cced the users list |

| 23:42 | <linagee> | is that a linux thing or a mythtv thing? |
| 23:42 | <Chutt> | captain_murdoch, yah, that's cool. |
| 23:43 | <linagee> | (i know linux itself probably doesn't like you running out of disk space entirely...) |
| 23:45 | <Captain_Murdoch> | Chutt: you want to commit or me to? that would print every time the flagging thread ran that's why it needs to be suppressed. |
| 23:46 | <Captain_Murdoch> | linagee: is it a 0-byte file? |
| 23:46 | <Captain_Murdoch> | shouldn't matter I guess. |
