| 00:46 | <mikegrb> | Chutt: just pulled it up |
| 00:47 | <Chutt> | just checking, someone emailed me and said they couldn't get to it |

| 00:58 | <monkeyBox> | How do I get mythtv to use my own ttf fonts? (like MS Arial) ?? |
| 00:59 | <monkeyBox> | The FreeSans.ttf font doesn't seem to be anti-aliased.. or maybe it's because the font-server isn't configured correctly |
| 01:01 | <Chutt> | it uses arial by default in all the uis |
| 01:01 | <Chutt> | if it's not antialiased, you don't have qt setup to do aa fonts. |
| 01:01 | <Chutt> | run qtconfig. |
| 01:02 | <monkeyBox> | Well, I'm using minimyth :) |
| 01:02 | <Chutt> | so? |
| 01:02 | <monkeyBox> | I'm not sure how he's got this thing set up :p |
| 01:02 | <Chutt> | you still have to set things up properly. |
| 01:02 | <hadees> | anyone know why i might be getting problems trying to open /dev/lirc? |
| 01:02 | <hadees> | i tried two diffrent serial ports same problem |
| 01:03 | <hadees> | i have an irman |
| 01:03 | <monkeyBox> | Chutt: the only fonts I see in /usr/share/mythtv are FreeSans and FreeMono.. shoudl there be an arial? |
| 01:03 | <Chutt> | it doesn't use those fonts for the main ui. |
| 01:03 | <monkeyBox> | oh... |
| 01:04 | <monkeyBox> | I see. So do I need to look at any other settings other than QT to make sure it's antialiasing? like in the XF86Config? |
| 01:04 | <Chutt> | probably. |
| 01:10 | <monkeyBox> | any idea where qtconfig saves its settings? |
| 01:12 | <Chutt> | ~/.qt/ |

| 01:14 | <hadees> | does the gentoo ebuild use the cvs? |
| 01:14 | <monkeyBox> | minimyth's home is set to / ... no .qt there.. no qtconfig program either. strange |
| 01:14 | <monkeyBox> | it's _very_ slimmed down |
| 01:14 | <michal> | can mythtv run inside the directfb X11? |
| 01:17 | <monkeyBox> | hadees: the one in portage is just 0.11. I don't think it's CVS |
| 01:17 | <Chutt> | it sure better not be using cvs |
| 01:18 | <monkeyBox> | yeah, very few ebuilds use CVS, unless they explicitly have CVS in the title, or if CVS is the only way to get it... |
| 01:18 | <Chutt> | monkeybox, so ask the minimyth guy to set up the fonts nicer |
| 01:19 | <monkeyBox> | Chutt: I think I just might :) |
| 01:19 | <monkeyBox> | he did a good job though getting things down to a bare minimum.. this thing net-boots in under 60 sec. |
| 01:20 | <michal> | hmm.. i wish i could find a g450 to g550 comparison somehwere :\ |
| 01:20 | <mechou> | so what's this minimyth? |

| 01:22 | <michal> | and of course one has a proprietart breakout cable while the other has 2 hd15 connectors |

| 01:45 | <michal> | is there any way to emulate a v4l interface on a budget dvb card? |
| 01:45 | <yebyen> | HEH |
| 01:45 | <yebyen> | that sounds like probably not exactly what you want to do |
| 01:46 | <michal> | it is definetly exactly what i want to do. i want to make v4l supporting applications work with a budget dvb card without adding functionality outside their scope |
| 01:46 | <michal> | so an extra layer in userspace |
| 01:46 | <michal> | at least temporarily |
| 01:47 | <yebyen> | heh |
| 01:47 | <yebyen> | sounds complicated |
| 01:47 | <michal> | it's less complicated than writing entirely new software |
| 01:53 | <michal> | doh.. need devfs |

| 01:54 | <michal> | i wish there was an irc channel where dvb people gathered :\ |
| 01:54 | <monkeyBox> | Hey, is the ~/.qt config file the same thing as ~/.qt/qtrc file in other distributions (namely gentoo)? |
| 01:54 | <Chutt> | err, it's the same everywhere. |
| 01:54 | <Chutt> | ~/.qt is the directory |
| 01:54 | <Chutt> | you asked where the config file was stored. |
| 01:55 | <monkeyBox> | oh i see... |
| 01:55 | <monkeyBox> | so I could just copy my .qt dir to the minimyth tree.. |
| 01:55 | <Chutt> | probably |
| 01:55 | <monkeyBox> | I'll try that and see if it works.. I noticed X showing messages about not being able to create /.qt, so maybe that'll solve it |

| 02:38 | <bobnvic> | I'm have a pvr-250. when I do test_ioctl -f width=720,height=480, I get ioctl: VIDIOC_S_FMT |
| 02:38 | <bobnvic> | ioctl: VIDIOC_G_FMT failed |
| 02:38 | <bobnvic> | is that normal? |
| 02:39 | <bobnvic> | any test_ioctl returns one success and one failed ioctl |
| 02:40 | <bobnvic> | otherwise the driver seems to work, though it has a few glitches for me. |

| 11:26 | <sfr> | _rkulagow: hi, in the how-to there's no debian-specific section in 4.3 (environment variables). Could that be added since apparently some people compile from source even on debian? |
| 11:27 | <thor_> | rkulagow, they got 6 entries, so are plannin to give give 6 prizes (rather than the original 5) |
| 11:27 | <thor_> | s/give give/give |
| 11:27 | <_rkulagow> | sfr: i suppose it could. MDZ wrote up the debian portion; have you talked to him? |
| 11:27 | <_rkulagow> | thor: there were only 6 entries all together? that seems low. i figured there'd be hundreds. who won? |
| 11:27 | <sfr> | _rkulagow: No, i didn't know that. So i'll talk to him first. |

| 14:32 | <mcsmurf> | yes |
| 14:32 | <mcsmurf> | i've heard this soo often on other help channels ;) |

| 14:38 | <sfr> | mcsmurf: i'm not an expert with myth code, but afaik Xv is required. |
| 14:39 | <mcsmurf> | ok forget my question |
| 14:39 | <mcsmurf> | i just found out that i have another issue first |
| 14:39 | <mcsmurf> | i thought it was the overlay problem that i have a black screen (was so in xawtv) |
| 14:39 | <mcsmurf> | but now lsmod shows me that my tv driver module is unused |
| 14:39 | <sfr> | no, it's probably an audio issue. |
| 14:40 | <mcsmurf> | nono tv :) |
| 14:40 | <mdz> | mcsmurf: http://www.mythtv.org/modules.php?name=MythInstall |
| 14:41 | <mcsmurf> | well there i also got problems with myfilldatabase |
| 14:41 | <mcsmurf> | because it said everything conflicts with everything *g* |
| 14:42 | <mcsmurf> | BenB pointed me to this program BTW |
| 14:47 | <mattfelsen> | does the time flash for anyone when you change the selection in schedule recordings -> program guide? (NOT when you bring up the guide from live tv) |
| 14:48 | <mcsmurf> | for example it says |
| 14:48 | <mcsmurf> | removing conflicting program: 1.orf.at Kinder-TV ORF 1 20030910060000 CET-20030910075500 CET |

| 14:49 | <mcsmurf> | conflicted with : festival.ard.de Theodor Chindler 20030913180000 CET-20030913185800 CET |
| 14:50 | <mcsmurf> | it makes everything conflict |
| 14:52 | <sfr> | mcsmurf: check the start/stop times. you're updating already existing program info, so of course it conflicts. |
| 14:53 | <sfr> | mcsmurf: mythfilldatabase doesn't care if an identical entry already exists. |
| 14:53 | <mcsmurf> | but i updated the database for the first time |
| 14:55 | <sfr> | mcsmurf: i highly doubt that. Or maybe your xmltv file lists these entries twice? |
| 14:56 | <mcsmurf> | hm ok how can i clear that databse? |
| 14:58 | <sfr> | mcsmurf: you could run setup again, but that clears _everything_. but i'd ignore these 'conflicts' messages for now. |
| 15:00 | <sfr> | but as mdz pointed out, i'm sure Ben also pointed you to : http://www.mythtv.org/modules.php?name=MythInstall :) |
| 15:01 | <mcsmurf> | no |
| 15:01 | <mcsmurf> | he pointed me only to his website *g* |
| 15:01 | <mcsmurf> | and said he needed 10 days to get it working |
| 15:02 | <sfr> | his website i guess, getting mythtv to work is a brease. :) |
| 15:02 | <sfr> | ahem, s/brease/breeze/ for native speakers |
| 15:05 | <mcsmurf> | hm |

| 15:05 | <mcsmurf> | what's the sourceid i need here?! |
| 15:06 | <mcsmurf> | that one from setup (Video Source Name?) |
| 15:06 | <sfr> | how many tuners did you configure with myth? if only one then it should be 1. |
| 15:08 | <mcsmurf> | well same again everything conflicts, ok lets ignore this |

| 15:50 | <sfr> | Yes ;) |
| 15:50 | <mattfelsen> | to which part? |
| 15:51 | <rozo> | Anyone know how to get the video into the mythtv? |
| 15:52 | <rozo> | i have a movie in /var/lib/mythvideo |
| 15:52 | <rozo> | but mythtv doesn't see it |
| 15:52 | <sfr> | mattfelsen: both |
| 15:52 | <mattfelsen> | ok...so where's the recommended one? |
| 15:53 | <mattfelsen> | rozo: did you set the path in the mythvideo setup? |
| 15:53 | <rozo> | yes |
| 15:53 | <mattfelsen> | heh, i don't know what to do beyond that |
| 15:53 | <rozo> | are only certain file formats allowed? |
| 15:56 | <thor_> | rozo, http://www.mythtv.org/docs/mythtv-HOWTO-17.html |
| 15:58 | <rozo> | thor_: that tells me how to install it, which i've already done. It doesn't tell me how to USE mythvideo. |
| 15:58 | <thor_> | mythfrontend, setup, video |
| 15:58 | <rozo> | i'm there now and all it says is what directory to look for videos |
| 15:59 | <rozo> | i have a mpg in that directory |
| 15:59 | <rozo> | but it doesn't seem to see it |
| 15:59 | <thor_> | mythfrontend, Video, Video Manager |
| 15:59 | <rozo> | says no videos |
| 16:00 | <rozo> | I'm wondering if the file name needs to be in a specific format or maybe it only reads certain extensions? |
| 16:02 | <thor_> | depends, on your settings ... mythfronted, Steup, Video Settings, File Types |
| 16:03 | <thor_> | you did install the database as per the README ? |
| 16:05 | <rozo> | the database was already there |
| 16:05 | <rozo> | hmm... |
| 16:05 | <rozo> | i don't have a File Types section |
| 16:05 | <thor_> | ah, you running a 0.11 package (not from source)? |
| 16:05 | <rozo> | yes, .11 |
| 16:05 | <rozo> | i'll go grab the CVS |
| 16:06 | <thor_> | rozo, mythvideo cvs requires mythtv cvs |
| 16:07 | <rozo> | okay |
| 16:07 | <thor_> | probably something very simple ... would give reasonable odds that the directory you specified is not quite correct |
| 16:08 | <rozo> | i'll try mythvideo cvs with .11, if it doesn't work i'll try upgrading mythtv cvs. It took me so long to get mythtv working, I don't want to mess with it :) |
| 16:09 | <mattfelsen> | can anyone else access http://www.pinnacle.tv/? |
| 16:10 | <rozo> | I can't. |

| 17:40 | <mikegrb> | might take a bit of time and get a few errors from proc but it will list each of the topic level dirs and there size in kb with the biggest at the top |
| 17:41 | <monkeyBox> | oh, cool.. thanks :) |
| 17:41 | <mikegrb> | actually what might be better |
| 17:42 | <mikegrb> | replace the * with a list of dirs to check eg cd to / and then do "du -ks home var etc | sort -rn" |
| 17:42 | <monkeyBox> | will count mounted volumes as well? |
| 17:42 | <mikegrb> | just leave dev proc and that sort of stuff off |
| 17:43 | <mikegrb> | yes, that's why I suggest the 2nd one, name the dir's you want included |
| 17:43 | <monkeyBox> | what's the -k flag do? |
| 17:43 | <mcsmurf> | sfr: mysql_4_ can't mess things up? |

| 18:34 | <tmk> | when can i test it? |
| 18:34 | <Chutt> | i just wish i had an extra tv i could stick in here |
| 18:34 | <Chutt> | doh |
| 18:34 | <tmk> | :D |
| 18:36 | <tmk> | does it just do svideo out? |
| 18:37 | <Chutt> | i believe it does composite through an adapter |
| 18:37 | <Chutt> | oh, no, it does do composite |
| 18:37 | <Chutt> | the spdif output plug switches between audio and composite out with a jumper on the board, i believe |
| 18:37 | <tmk> | ah yea |
| 18:37 | <tmk> | i remember reading about htat |
| 18:40 | <Chutt> | the decoder's fairly weird |
| 18:40 | <Chutt> | i'd think it would take more load off the cpu than it does |
| 18:40 | <Chutt> | it only cuts decoding time in half, about |

| 18:50 | <Chutt> | i dunno |
| 18:51 | <Chutt> | parsing the stream out and decoding the audio shouldn't take 30% cpu |
| 18:51 | <tmk> | is it DMA? |
| 18:51 | <Chutt> | i dunno |
| 18:51 | <Chutt> | i think not |
| 18:51 | <tmk> | ah |
| 18:52 | <tmk> | that's the problem |
| 18:52 | <Chutt> | the slice data's probably getting copied all over the place |
| 18:52 | <tmk> | aye |
| 18:52 | <tmk> | so you decode the audio on your own eh |
| 18:52 | <tmk> | how do you synch it? |
| 18:53 | <Chutt> | same way i sync everything else |
| 18:53 | <Chutt> | the decoded frame gets a timestamp |
| 18:53 | <Chutt> | i tell it when to show each frame |
| 18:53 | <Chutt> | etc |
| 18:55 | <tmk> | ahso |

| 19:02 | <tmk> | yeah |
| 19:02 | <tmk> | decoder's having an issue sometimes tho |
| 19:02 | <tmk> | seems to be a race of some kind |
| 19:02 | | * tmk hunts it down |
| 19:02 | <tmk> | could be my slow box |

| 19:32 | <Chutt> | i should put up a 'mythtv dev machines' page |
| 19:32 | <Chutt> | with my hardware configs and stuff |
| 19:32 | <Chutt> | now that i have my main box in a nicer case =) |
| 19:32 | <brunes> | hello.. since upgrading to 0.11, whenever I go into Watch TV mode, Myth sets the recording level of my tvt tuner mixer to 100. This causes vastly distorted sound because the gain si way too high. Anyone know whats the cause of this all of a sudden / how to turn it off? I can manually launch my mixer app and adjust it back down, but doing this eevry time I go inton watch tv is a pain, not ot mention recordings no longer |
| 19:33 | <Chutt> | brunes, try changing the value at line 870 of libs/libmythtv/NuppelVideoRecorder.cpp to something lower |
| 19:34 | <brunes> | va.volume = 65535; |
| 19:34 | <brunes> | was this lower before 0.11 ? |
| 19:35 | <Chutt> | believe so, yes |
| 19:35 | <brunes> | when I set it to around 50 or 55 it is perfect |
| 19:35 | <brunes> | so that would be around 32768 |
| 19:35 | <Chutt> | give it a try |
| 19:35 | <brunes> | blah, need to compile myself. i was using the debian packages. Oh well. |
| 19:35 | <Chutt> | heh |
| 19:36 | <brunes> | well wait a sec... |
| 19:36 | <brunes> | if ((volume == -1 && va.volume < 32768) || volume != -1) |
| 19:36 | <brunes> | { |
| 19:36 | <brunes> | if (volume == -1) |
| 19:36 | <brunes> | va.volume = 65535; // no more silence 8-) |
| 19:36 | <sfr> | brunes, just use the deb-source packages, then. |
| 19:36 | <brunes> | so.. if I had pre-set the volume to sa, 33000, it would not adjust it? |
| 19:36 | <Chutt> | volume is always -1 |
| 19:36 | <brunes> | oh :/ |
| 19:36 | <Chutt> | i believe |
| 19:37 | <Chutt> | give it a try, though. |
| 19:37 | <brunes> | will do |
| 19:42 | <tmk> | hey chutt, what brand of remote does the hauppauge stuff need |
| 19:42 | <Chutt> | rc-5 protocol |
| 19:42 | <tmk> | i just have a universal, was it philips? |
| 19:43 | <Chutt> | older philips/marantz i believe |
| 19:51 | <brunes> | weird, that line has nto changed in some time |
| 20:00 | <sfr> | Chutt, interested in a bt of mythbackend? It segfaulted when exiting live-tv. Should be complete i hope. Btw, i'll wipe my frontends installation and install again with debugging. |

| 20:02 | <davipt> | uhm, how did I miss this channel before ??? Hi people |
| 20:03 | <tmk> | hi |
| 20:04 | <davipt> | my name is Bruno Rodrigues, I've been sending i18n/l10n patches to the list ;) |
| 20:08 | <brunes> | Chutt: Thatd didnt fix it:( Mor eof a description... I can run aumix against my tvaudio mixer, and watch the mixer volue go from 50 to 100 as soon as I select "Watch TV". Then when I ESC from Watch TV, it goes right back to 50 |
| 20:08 | <brunes> | excuse my horrible typing |
| 20:09 | <sfr> | Chutt, on the backend i made a full 'release' installation of cvs, and later replaced libmyth.so... and mythbackend with debugging versions. Is that ok or am i'm missing something. Note that i was using a remote frontend. |
| 20:09 | <Chutt> | sfr, depends |
| 20:09 | <Chutt> | brunes, weird. dunno what to tell you |
| 20:09 | <Chutt> | try turning off the internal volume controls. |
| 20:09 | <Chutt> | that's the only other place it touches the mixer. |
| 20:10 | <sfr> | Chutt, on? |
| 20:10 | <Chutt> | sfr, if the bt is good or not =) |
| 20:10 | <mikegrb> | heh |
| 20:10 | <sfr> | Chutt, i'm asking because it still says 'missing symbol information' for some threads. |
| 20:11 | <Chutt> | yeah |
| 20:11 | <Chutt> | i need that information |
| 20:11 | <brunes> | argh wait |
| 20:11 | <brunes> | stupid dpkg-buildpackage did nto work |
| 20:11 | <Chutt> | and i don't know to fix it missing. |

| 20:16 | <Chutt> | ah |
| 20:16 | <Chutt> | well |
| 20:17 | <Chutt> | the information was there |
| 20:17 | <sfr> | i'm sure i'll get a 2nd chance :) |
| 20:17 | <Chutt> | i needed to see something else, though |
| 20:17 | <brunes> | Chutt: Assuming this does fix it, I'd suggest it should probably be in the config somewhere, or at least a param you can pass to mythbackend |
| 20:17 | <sfr> | so this bt looks ok? |
| 20:17 | <brunes> | I can't be the only person this distorts the audio for |
| 20:17 | <Chutt> | no, but the thread that died was mostly ok. |
| 20:17 | <Chutt> | brunes, you're the only person that's said anything |
| 20:17 | <brunes> | weird |
| 20:18 | <sfr> | what again happened with the sound? i also use myth internal sound controls. |
| 20:19 | <brunes> | i dont us einternal sound controls |
| 20:19 | <brunes> | my sound goes through my amp |
| 20:19 | <brunes> | but the audio was totally distored because the recording gain was set at 100% |
| 20:20 | <sfr> | brunes: in alsamixer the capture device? |
| 20:20 | <brunes> | I dont use alsa, but yes, in the tvaudio mixer |
| 20:20 | <brunes> | not the mian SC mixer |
| 20:21 | <brunes> | s/mian/main |
| 20:21 | <sfr> | hm, i don't use tvaudio. |
| 20:21 | <brunes> | well |
| 20:21 | <brunes> | tvaudio just shows you what the v4l is set at really |
| 20:21 | <brunes> | thats all Iwa susing it for |
| 20:22 | <brunes> | to figure out what was going on... I don't usually load it either |
| 20:22 | <brunes> | er, I mean tvmixer. I always load tvaudio :P |
| 20:23 | <Chutt> | tmk, got an email back, they're happy to send to you =) |
| 20:24 | <sfr> | brunes: to make things clear in my mind, tvaudio is used for tv-cards that don't require a separate soundcard? |
| 20:25 | <brunes> | no... tvaudio lets the aound go directly over the pci bus to your soundcard.. I think anyways :P |
| 20:25 | <davipt> | sfr: my card also has it's own sound card input, btaudio, and I can make mythtv read from btaudio and output to sound card |
| 20:25 | <brunes> | all I know is I need it for audio |
| 20:26 | <davipt> | sfr: alternativly, I can plug tv sound out to soundcard line in and capture from dsp, but this requires bidirectional support from /dev/dsp driver and I haven't yet compiled alsa (oss is too slow) |
| 20:26 | <sfr> | davipt: Aha, so you don't need an external audio cable from the tv-card to the soundcard. |
| 20:26 | <brunes> | right |
| 20:27 | <davipt> | sfr: for myth, no :) |
| 20:27 | <sfr> | so the non-requirement of bidirectional support in /dev/dsp is the only advantage? |
| 20:27 | <davipt> | sfr: now if I could define the same video input and two different sound devices so I can see tv and see s-video input ... |
| 20:28 | <sfr> | davipt: i see |
| 20:28 | <davipt> | sfr: yep, and you capture it "more digital" - means one less hop in digital (nicam) -> analog, linein, digital |
| 20:29 | <brunes> | sfr: Well you get better audio quality going diretc over pci |
| 20:31 | <linagee> | why is it when viewing an mpeg2 made with my pvr250 on windows media player, the fast forward and rewind don't work? is there no index in the mpeg2 stream or something? |

| 22:49 | <dsotm> | well, im a little more pragmatic than that |
