11:03 | <Griffon26> | k |
11:04 | <o_cee> | i've got previews enabled.. |
11:04 | <Griffon26> | me2 |
11:04 | <o_cee> | but as i said, i have no clue how long it took for it to happen, could be as much as 5 hrs |
11:04 | | * o_cee is away: bbl |
11:04 | <o_cee> | later |
11:11 | <Griffon26> | Hmm, my frontend locked up as soon as I started an instant recording and now I don't know where to stop this recording |
11:12 | <Griffon26> | without deleting it entirely of course |
11:12 | <josephk> | don't do instant recording |
11:13 | <josephk> | :) |
11:13 | <josephk> | I don't think it works for anyone...not sure about CVS though |

13:00 | <tmk> | chutt: you experience the ff/rew bug yet? |
13:00 | <tmk> | i did some 'live tv' watching |
13:00 | <tmk> | i paused |
13:00 | <tmk> | then played |
13:00 | <tmk> | then on my first ff, it rewound, and then thought it was at the end |
13:00 | <tmk> | ie it wouldn't ff any further |
13:01 | <tmk> | but the buffer still showed 1% full or w/e |
13:01 | <tmk> | then it happened again an hour later or whatever |
13:01 | <tmk> | i ended up just exiting live tv at halftime then watching again to ff through the buffer i couldn't see |
13:02 | <Magick> | tmk: his client disconnected a few moments ago |
13:03 | <tmk> | err doh |
13:04 | <robertj> | hey Chutt, are we nearing .12 yet? |
13:04 | <tmk> | he's gone! |
13:04 | <tmk> | heh |
13:07 | <Soopaman> | Happy Thanksgiving |
13:12 | <robertj> | doh ;) |
13:12 | <robertj> | slippery little slug ;) |
13:30 | <davatar> | There is definately a bug in the rtjpeg quality settings, transcoding from a 2.1 GB rtjpeg file at 170 quality to rtjpeg at 170 quality results in a 13GB file.. I knew it wasn't just me :) |
13:33 | <robertj> | I need to make mythtv connefessions to someone |
13:33 | <robertj> | I'm afraid I've got to buy another box for myth because I started abusing my myth box |

13:54 | <Chutt> | nope |
13:54 | <Chutt> | i've been busy |
13:55 | <thor_> | k |
13:55 | <thor_> | want to send you a tarball of the mfd to have a look at, but probably not for another day or so |
13:55 | <Chutt> | sure, that'd be cool. |
13:55 | <thor_> | k |
14:16 | <o_cee> | Chutt: did you read what i wrote here about 4 hours ago? |
14:16 | <Chutt> | no |
14:17 | <Chutt> | now stop being annoying. |
14:17 | <o_cee> | me? |
14:17 | <o_cee> | hmm |
14:18 | <o_cee> | whatever. did you try it Griffon26? |
14:20 | <josephk> | looks back 4 hours... |
14:20 | <josephk> | ooo, sounds bad |
14:20 | <Chutt> | if your computer hangs, it's not mythtv's fault. |
14:20 | <Chutt> | it's your machine's fault. |
14:21 | <Chutt> | that should be obvious to anyone with half a brain. |
14:21 | <o_cee> | then you did read it. just find it strange that it happened two times at the same place when myth was doing the same thing. |
14:22 | <Chutt> | repeat after me: user-space programs can not make your entire computer freeze |
14:22 | <o_cee> | user-space programs can not make your entire computer freeze |
14:22 | <o_cee> | right, think i got it. |
14:23 | <o_cee> | thanks, now i learned something new today. |
14:24 | <Kasperle> | user space programs can trigger driver bugs though |
14:24 | <Chutt> | of cousre |
14:24 | <Chutt> | but that's not my problem. |
14:25 | <josephk> | but your chutt:D |
14:25 | <josephk> | you're even |

14:49 | <tmk> | Chutt: got some more info on that ff/rew problem if you've got a moment.. |
14:49 | <Chutt> | sure |
14:50 | <tmk> | so i was doing live tv |
14:50 | <tmk> | watching a football game |
14:50 | <tmk> | i paused while i got up for a moment |
14:50 | <tmk> | then when i ff'd, it actually skipped back about 30 sec or so |
14:51 | <tmk> | and when i tried to ff again to catch up, it thought it was caught up |
14:51 | <tmk> | so i 'lost' that space |
14:51 | <tmk> | then about 30 mins later it happened again |
14:51 | <tmk> | the buffer still showed 2% full tho |
14:51 | <tmk> | so it knew it had data |
14:51 | <tmk> | playback was fine |
14:52 | <tmk> | just to clarify, the ff was after unpausing |
14:52 | <Chutt> | weird. |
14:52 | <tmk> | indeed |

15:57 | <jcap> | hi, folks |
15:58 | <jcap> | I just refreshed my CVS yesterday after a 2-week hiatus... can anyone give me a hand with the new profile group stuff? |
16:00 | <Magick> | I believe there was info posted to the mailinglists about how to update the database. |
16:00 | <jcap> | I thought the new database update code should handle it |
16:01 | <Magick> | I can't recall if that was mentioned or not |
16:01 | <sfr> | it does. but you need to change the default profiles to your needs. |
16:02 | <sfr> | the old codecparams are simply deleted afaik. |
16:02 | <jcap> | I did change the profiles, but it seems like every time I go in, it's duplicated all of my profiles *again*! I've got like 16 profiles now! |
16:05 | <sfr> | if you have bad luck, your previous cvs version is broken. afaik cvs was broken re profiles for ~ 1 day some time ago. |
16:06 | <jcap> | Yes, I recall that, but I believe my last CVS was not during that time period |
16:07 | <jcap> | ...if it was broken, I guess I should just follow the directions in the mailing list to delete all of my old profiles? |
16:09 | <jcap> | Just check; my last CVS was from 9/15. IIRC, the profile groups patch didn't get committed until after that. |

18:16 | <ByteNik> | I'm doing simultaneous HDTV recording (pcHDTV) and PVR250 recording, while playing back an HDTV stream. If I have the choice between a high (2.4ghz) Celeron with less cache or an Athlon (1.5ghz) with more, do I want the Celeron? |
18:18 | <josephk_> | intel board is probably better |
18:19 | <josephk_> | I'd be more concerned about having to use a VIA chipset with the amd |
18:19 | <josephk_> | celeron would be better I'd think |
18:20 | <josephk_> | even though it's a celeron:) |
18:21 | <deadparrot> | I've heard things about the AMD/VIA combo (or just VIA mobos) being bad. I'm running it right now with two PVR250s. Am I asking for trouble? |
18:21 | <Bishop> | is there a difference between using ./test_ioctl and having a .ivtvrc file? |
18:23 | <deadparrot> | ByteNik: how are you handling the HD2000/V4L1 and PVR250/V4L2 problem? I have my PVR250s and my HD2000 running in separate backends right now. |
18:23 | <josephk_> | I had no trouble with 2 PVR's |
18:23 | <josephk_> | newer via boards probably aren't bad |
18:23 | <ByteNik> | deadparrot: I don't have it set up yet. :P |
18:23 | <josephk_> | kt400 worked fine for me |
18:23 | <ByteNik> | deadparrot: There's issues? |
18:24 | <deadparrot> | josephk_: Yeah, I've got a KT333. |
18:24 | <josephk_> | probably the only boards you need to stay away from are the older via boards |
18:25 | <josephk_> | everyone has their own mental baggage when it comes to boards now anyway:D |
18:25 | <deadparrot> | ByteNik: AFAIK, the HD2000 requires V4L and the IVTV requires V4L2. It can be difficult to get them working at the same time. |
18:25 | <ByteNik> | deadparrot: pcHDTV == HD2000 I assume? |
18:26 | <deadparrot> | Yes, the HD2000 is the product from the pcHDTV company. |
18:26 | <ByteNik> | Oh, right, that's the model num. |
18:26 | <sfr> | v4l2 contains a v4l-compat module, i'm using it with a pvr350 (v4l2) and a matrox marvel g400 (v4l) |
18:26 | <ByteNik> | I've just been using the company name. |
18:26 | <ByteNik> | sfr: So I don't need to run v4l seperately? |
18:27 | <sfr> | ByteNik: afaik, no. |
18:28 | <ByteNik> | Has anyone ever gotten either the front end or the back end running in Windows? Or does cygwin not support v4l and Xv? |
18:29 | <ByteNik> | My parents want to use my backend but they run Windows. |
18:29 | <deadparrot> | sfr: Are you using videodevX, or is that not necessary? |
18:29 | <ByteNik> | And I'd like them to run a backend from home (I'm at college) so I can watch TV from there. |
18:29 | <ByteNik> | But again, Windows. |
18:29 | <josephk_> | you could use myhtpc...I don't think it's as good...but |
18:29 | <josephk_> | it would probably work |
18:29 | <josephk_> | myhtpc.com |
18:29 | <ByteNik> | josephk_: Is it compatible with myth? |
18:30 | <josephk_> | nope...hehe |
18:30 | <ByteNik> | So that doesn't help me. |
18:30 | <sfr> | what is videodevX? |
18:30 | <ByteNik> | I have myth installed and running with my PVR250 |
18:30 | <josephk_> | well it works with the 250 |
18:31 | <sfr> | deadparrot: what is videodevX? |
18:31 | <ByteNik> | I am already running myth tho. :P |
18:31 | <josephk_> | but its its own entity |
18:31 | <josephk_> | well you're screwed then...hehe |
18:31 | <deadparrot> | videodevX is a way to use both V4L and V4L2 at the same time with two different devices that use the two different APIs. |

18:32 | <sfr> | deadparrot: i have a module videodev loaded right now. maybe that's it. |
18:34 | <deadparrot> | videodev is the V4L module; the same name is used for the V4L2 module after the patch I believe. |
18:35 | <sfr> | deadparrot: probably. i'm using a wolk kernel which is already patched with v4l2. |
18:40 | <deadparrot> | Sorry, it looks like videodevX was an old name of concurrent 1 & 2 support which seems to have been patched into V4L2 upstream. |
18:41 | <deadparrot> | I'm going to give the HD/IV combo another try soon, I think (I'd rather have only one backend). Is anyone currently running a box with both? |
18:43 | <deadparrot> | Has anyone seen bbeattie recently? |
18:45 | <Bishop> | anyone have resources on how to get an ir blaster to work (I have the pvr-250 remote working) |
18:48 | <deadparrot> | Unless you want to do a lot of software (lirc) tweaking, you'll probably want to create a combination receiver/transmitter for use on a serial port. |
18:48 | <deadparrot> | LIRC by default only easily supports one device. |
18:50 | <deadparrot> | Then again, you may have no interest in soldering, etc. ;) I made mine, and I'm no electronics wiz. |
18:51 | <Bishop> | my directv box doesn't have any inputs on the back (except this little 1/8' plug labeled rf remote |
18:52 | <deadparrot> | Mine only has an infrared receiver, so I _had_ to make a transmitter. |
18:54 | <deadparrot> | BTW, if your DirecTV receiver ever fails, don't take DirecTV's $50 deal for a replacement. |
18:55 | <deadparrot> | I lost S-Video and Low-Speed Data Port, and the company said, "Tough" (in so many words). |
18:55 | <Bishop> | i have the IR receiver on the PVR-250, and an actisys ir200L (which I _think_ receives and transmits) |
18:58 | <deadparrot> | If you can get the actisys to receive the Hauppauge remote's signal, you'll probably only want to use it alone (due to the LIRC one-device problem). |
18:58 | <Bishop> | i just have the cheap (free) directv receiver. i was looking at new ones (around $80) that have the data port |
18:58 | -!- | jkolb [~jkolb@216-53-148-194-host.mpinet.net] has quit [] |
18:59 | <Bishop> | but doesn't the actisys need to point at the directv so it can change the channel? (which would make it kind of useless to receive) |
19:00 | <deadparrot> | Do a search on lirc.org for the brand before counting on using the low-speed data port; you have to know the protocol and have a corresponding LIRC config. |
19:03 | <deadparrot> | Actually, I don't know much about the actisys device, but my transceiver is in a black plastic project box with the emitter on one side pointing toward the STB and the IR receiver on the other side pointing toward the couch. |
19:04 | <Bishop> | nice hack! |
19:05 | <deadparrot> | BTW, it's all Radio Shack parts and accepts the PVR-250 remote signals just fine. |
19:05 | <deadparrot> | The diagrams are on the LIRC site. |
19:14 | <Bishop> | tv is still choppy. cpu is still 90% idle. anything i can do to tweak that? |
19:20 | <mikegrb> | Bishop: you sure dma and 32bit transfers are enabled? |

19:24 | <Bishop> | IO_support = 0 (default 16-bit) |

19:24 | <mikegrb> | yes hdparm -c 1 /dev/hda3 |
19:24 | <mikegrb> | pmowry: the commits list |
19:24 | <mikegrb> | and the dev list |
19:25 | <mikegrb> | you shouldn't be using cvs without at least being on the commits list anyway |
19:25 | <Bishop> | HDIO_SET_32BIT failed: Invalid argument (not supported?0 |
19:27 | <mikegrb> | hmmm |
19:27 | <mikegrb> | you did -c 1? maybe -c1? |
19:27 | <mikegrb> | maybe the drive or controller don't support it |
19:27 | <deadparrot> | Check the CMOS. |
19:28 | <pmowry> | mikegrb: I'll be working with a PVR-350 so I figured it would be the best place to start. I've subscribed to myth-dev, but only the rolled-up version. |
19:29 | <pmowry> | I'll be patient and wait until the next archive. And do a make clean ; make in the mean time. |

22:12 | <eco> | Speaking of interlacing, does MythTV handle De-Interlacing? |
22:18 | <deadparrot> | The playback part of TV settings has a de-interlacing option; I would imagine that includes live-tv (since that's "playing back" what was recorded a second ago). |

22:19 | <gerhard> | does someone know why the "program guide" is emty and "program finder" shows all" |
22:19 | | * mikegrb sticks a dirty sock in bbeattie's mouth |
22:20 | <gerhard> | also i cannot chane the channel, i get the last channel i uses with xawtv |
22:20 | <gerhard> | i meant change channel |

22:36 | <mikegrb> | greetins paulproteus, long time no see :) |
22:42 | <term> | surely there's a good reason why the pvr250 works great with the direct cable signal, and doesn't even begin to work with the cable box. |
22:43 | <mikegrb> | gmm |
22:43 | <mikegrb> | er hmmm |
22:44 | <mikegrb> | the cable box is evil? |
22:44 | <term> | that's not a good answer :( |
22:44 | <mikegrb> | perhaps the box isn't outputing right at the freq it is supposed to |
22:45 | <mikegrb> | if the freq is off a bit perhaps the tv still sees a good picture due to auto fine tuning but the pvr-250 tunes to the exact freq specified by spec |
22:46 | <term> | the vcr has no problem dealing with the signal though |
22:48 | <mikegrb> | right, it may do some sort of auto fine tune |
22:48 | <mikegrb> | just an idea |
22:50 | <term> | hmm |
22:51 | <mikegrb> | indeed |

23:00 | <tmk> | hi |
23:01 | <gerhard> | I'm trying to get the tv guide with xmltv but i noticed that its looking at the wrong date. |
23:02 | <gerhard> | http://www.dagenstv.com/no/chart/?dat=2003-10-27&cha=6: did not find any table containing listings, skipping at /usr//bin/tv_grab_sn line 440. |
23:02 | <term> | whee more random pauses |
23:02 | <term> | I can try the latest version for that though. |
23:02 | <term> | I think I saw some committed fixes for it.. |
23:03 | <gerhard> | can someone tell me please how to fix that and where, the date and time on my system is correct |
23:09 | <eco> | How well does MythGame work? |

23:35 | <tmk> | gerhard: you're in the wrong channel |
23:37 | <gerhard> | its a probl. with mythtv and xmltv |
23:37 | <tmk> | they don't work together do they? |
23:38 | <Bishop> | while ripping a dvd, can you leave the screen? and does that work for ripping cd's as well? |
23:38 | <mikegrb> | Bishop: yes for dvd's not sure abt cd's at the moment I think not but it is planned for the future |
23:38 | <gerhard> | mythtv uses xmltv for the program lising doesnt it? |
23:38 | <Bishop> | sweet! thanks |
23:39 | <tmk> | oh sorry |
23:39 | <tmk> | i thought you said xawtv |
23:40 | <moegreen> | gerhard: which date do you think it should be looking at? |
23:40 | <Bishop> | i'm confused about this parental pin for videos.... |
23:40 | <gerhard> | the probl, is that when xmltv tries to get the progr. info from the net it is about a week ahead |
23:41 | <gerhard> | I think it should start from today |
23:41 | <Chutt> | look at the code and figure it out. |
23:41 | <term> | so has anyone (besides mikegrb) heard of a situation where the signal from the raw tv signal works fine, but when the signal is pushed through the cable box, doesn't? mikegrb theorized that the cable box signal is not spec'd right |
23:41 | <Chutt> | it's not complicated. |
23:41 | <Bishop> | testing this out i add a video and assign it 4, set the pin in setup. now i have to enter a pin to see the video manager, and the video is not browsable in the "browse videos". but i can still got o "video list" and hit enter and play it. |
23:41 | <tmk> | sup chutt |
23:41 | <term> | Chutt: hey. |
23:42 | <Chutt> | hey guys |
23:43 | <mikegrb> | heh |
23:43 | <mikegrb> | sorry term that's all my head could come up with |
23:43 | <term> | mikegrb: it's an interesting idea, I just don't know what to do about it ;( |
23:43 | <mikegrb> | you are using rf output of the cable box? |
23:43 | <mikegrb> | heh |
23:43 | <mikegrb> | oh |
23:43 | <term> | coax |
23:44 | <term> | so I guess rf. |
23:44 | <mikegrb> | you can use xawtv and it has finetunning, try getting a picture there |
23:44 | <term> | hm |
23:44 | <term> | I'll try that in a bit |
23:44 | <mikegrb> | then you can get it's fine tuning value and put that in the channels table |
23:44 | <mikegrb> | though I'm not certain about that |
23:44 | <term> | actually I'll have to try it in the morning, wife's watching tv. |
23:44 | <Chutt> | you only have coax out of your cable box? |
23:44 | <mikegrb> | Chutt: how does one specify finetuning in a case such as this? |
23:45 | <term> | Chutt: err, how else would I get the signal into the pvr250? |
23:45 | <Chutt> | svideo/composite |
23:45 | <Chutt> | would be preferred |
23:45 | <term> | hm |
23:45 | <Chutt> | better quality |
23:46 | <term> | hm |
23:46 | <term> | well, I'd need more svideo cable. |
23:46 | <term> | so I couldn't fix the coax? |
23:47 | <Chutt> | i dunno |
23:47 | <Chutt> | most people use the svideo or composite in for cable boxes |
23:47 | <term> | hmm |
23:48 | <term> | there's a lot of details I didn't know before I did this.. :( |
23:48 | <Chutt> | davatar, don't msg me. |
23:48 | <davatar> | ok |
23:48 | <mikegrb> | it would make a significant difference in quality term |
23:49 | <term> | mikegrb: well the raw signal looked fine.. |
23:49 | <Chutt> | i don't see why coax wouldn't work, of course |
23:50 | <term> | but the coax coming out of the cable box works fine when input into the vcr, doesn't work right at all via the pvr250 |
23:50 | <term> | damn sciat box. |
23:51 | <davatar> | Chutt: So did you? I don't know if it's caught in a spam trap.. |
23:51 | <Chutt> | i probably did |
23:51 | <Chutt> | oh, yeah |
23:51 | <Chutt> | yes, you need to clean up your code and resubmit it |
23:51 | <davatar> | ok |
