00:00 | <ChaosExiguum> | "watch tv" works just fine for me, however, recorded shows play like broken records and skip all over the place, often a 1 hour show records as 12min |
00:01 | <ChaosExiguum> | im using a pvr350, and this problem showed up with the .12 release |
00:01 | <Chutt> | it's the same code. |

00:02 | <Chutt> | unless you've someone gotten a very broken recording profile for 'default' or whatnot |
00:02 | <Chutt> | 'somehow' |
00:03 | <ChaosExiguum> | hmm... I dont know, I tried recording a show using "live tv" as the profile and it was not happy either |
00:04 | <ChaosExiguum> | also when its recording a show, the hd light goes on solid instead of just the normal blip blip |
00:05 | <Chutt> | got your logging in the ivtv driver too high? |
00:06 | <Chutt> | though it'd be the same for live-tv |
00:06 | <Chutt> | mysql db broken? |
00:06 | <ChaosExiguum> | hmm, mysql may be it, I also get massive i/o when deleting recordings and such |
00:06 | <Chutt> | dma turned on? |
00:07 | <ChaosExiguum> | yup |
00:07 | <Chutt> | i would make sure that the ivtv driver isn't logging insanely |
00:07 | <Chutt> | it does that at times =) |
00:09 | <ChaosExiguum> | wowie, I've got debug on it set to 2, and I'm getting dma tasklet log stuff about 60 times a sec |
00:10 | <Chutt> | heh |
00:10 | <Chutt> | also |
00:10 | <Chutt> | which version of the driver are you using? |
00:11 | <Chutt> | http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/axboe/ivtv/ |
00:11 | <ChaosExiguum> | decoder-alpha, although I did not change the driver when I upgraded to .12, I did update my firmware |
00:11 | <Chutt> | tad stabler than the latest decoder-alpha stuff |
00:11 | <Chutt> | just hasn't been merged in by tmk yet |
00:11 | <Chutt> | updated several times a day, generally |
00:13 | <ChaosExiguum> | I'll give that a try, but I am leaning twards a db problem, since as you say, livetv and recorded tv use the same code, andn live is working fine |

00:14 | <Captain_Murdoch> | did you check your recordedmarkup table? |
00:14 | -!- | FryGuy [~fryguy@12-209-117-192.client.attbi.com] has joined #mythtv |
00:14 | <ChaosExiguum> | no, I have not looked at the db at all yet, im about to... |
00:15 | <Captain_Murdoch> | check that first, it gets hit during recordings. |
00:19 | <ChaosExiguum> | hrm... 'ERROR 1016: Can't open file: 'recordedmarkup.MYI'. (errno: 145)" |
00:19 | <Captain_Murdoch> | check the mailing list for instructions on how to fix. |
00:19 | <ChaosExiguum> | okay, thanks |
00:22 | <Chutt> | heh |
00:22 | <Chutt> | that table goes wonky often |
00:23 | <Chutt> | i need to find a new 40mm fan for the cpu on my mini-itx box |
00:23 | <Captain_Murdoch> | bug in mysql or just bad hw? never has happened to me and I record 4-5 hours a day. |
00:23 | <ChaosExiguum> | ah, that is what Im reading as well..... my fan is starting to loose a bearing as well.. |
00:23 | <Chutt> | current cpu fan is now about twice as loud as my entire xp1800+ machine |
00:23 | <Chutt> | if i don't turn it way down with a fanmate |
00:24 | <Chutt> | captain_murdoch, i don't think it deals well with problems |
00:24 | <Chutt> | i've never seen that either |
00:24 | <ChaosExiguum> | my system may have had a power loss, or something went wrong during the upgrade |
00:24 | <Chutt> | though you probably record much more than i do =) |
00:24 | <Captain_Murdoch> | I've got a dell poweredge 2300 sitting here that shakes the house. It has 2 or 3 5-inch fans in it I think. even on low speed they're noisy. should break out the wd-40. |
00:25 | <Chutt> | maybe i should just put something larger in there |
00:25 | <ChaosExiguum> | heh, I use sewing machine oil, never thought of wd-40 |
00:25 | <Captain_Murdoch> | well, my wife records 2-3 a day of those home shows then we have our nightly stuff that records. we rarely watch live anymore, timeshift everything through myth. |
00:25 | <Chutt> | should be quieter, at least |
00:26 | <Captain_Murdoch> | I turn this machine off at night right now, only using it for testing currently. |
00:26 | <Chutt> | i had a recording playing earlier through the pvr-350, my wife thought it was live tv =) |
00:29 | <ChaosExiguum> | :o) my next project is making the tv out work, I can dd to video16 just fine, but something about my ivtv is whack and it crashes myth, so thats next to tackle |
00:30 | <Chutt> | it needs the ivtv-fb stuff working |
00:30 | <Chutt> | and you'll want to use CVS mythtv and that driver snapshot |
00:30 | <Chutt> | and cvs mythtv in a day or so, when i update stuff with some improvements that are in my working tree |
00:31 | <Chutt> | i'm _trying_ to get edit mode working =) |
00:31 | <ChaosExiguum> | I got the fb working for X w/ cvs, but I'll have to try the snapshot |
00:32 | <Chutt> | ah, do you have another fb device that's on /dev/fb0? |
00:32 | <ChaosExiguum> | yea |
00:32 | <Chutt> | the ivtv ioctl that was supposed to say which fb device to use was/is broken |
00:32 | <Chutt> | think it's fixed in that snapshot driver, though |
00:32 | <ChaosExiguum> | ahhhh, that might just do the trick |
00:33 | <ChaosExiguum> | well thanks so much for all the help guys, mysql says my db is fixed up now, and I'll give that ivtv stuff a shot, but right now, its time for bed.. 'night |
00:56 | <CyberKnet> | Hmmm... seems like every time I do the dist-upgrade if I say yes to installing libc6 then it breaks ldconfig. So I think this time I will just say no. |

12:13 | <Chutt> | sfr, hey, how's the streaming audio? |
12:15 | <sfr> | so and so. i don't like the fact that it blocks the gui while buffering. maybe it should go in a separate thread? |
12:16 | <Chutt> | might not be too hard to do that |
12:16 | <Chutt> | and probably best |
12:18 | <Chutt> | when it's buffering, is it in someplace that it could call qApp::processEvents()? |
12:18 | <Chutt> | that'd let the UI update, at least |
12:18 | <sfr> | didn't actually look at how to do it. had to get used to the idea first. should be enough to start a thread from inside streaminput. |
12:19 | <sfr> | ah, i added something like that in the initial connect sequence, but not later on. i don't really know what it's good for :) |
12:19 | <sfr> | but it seems to fit to that problem. |
12:20 | <Chutt> | there's certain problems that can arise from using it, but it's basically 'i'm doing something that's going to take awhile, so go do the UI crap for a little bit' |
12:20 | <sfr> | or you'd prefer a separate thread? |
12:20 | <Chutt> | it doesn't really matter |
12:20 | <Chutt> | either way should probably work just as well |
12:22 | <sfr> | do you know if the plugins will have to be changed considerably to fit to thor's mfd? |
12:23 | <Chutt> | i don't think so |
12:23 | <Chutt> | i haven't had time to really look at that code, but it looks like he just reused the decoder stuff as is |
12:26 | <sfr> | the qApp::processEvents will also handle keyboard events i guess? |
12:28 | <Chutt> | yeah |
12:28 | <Chutt> | so you may have to write some stuff to disallow that, or stop prebuffering if necessary |

12:31 | <sfr> | ok, now i've got something to look at during the weekend ;) |
12:35 | | * mikegrb considers the mythtv pumpkin a challenge |
12:37 | | * kvandivo thinks that mikegrb must have more artistic talent than he, if one is look at that as a challenge. |
12:37 | <mikegrb> | heh |
12:38 | | * kvandivo pokes mikegrb. |
12:38 | <mikegrb> | well we still have a pumpkin that needs carving |
12:38 | <kvandivo> | what's up with xbox code that causes my machine to hang? |
12:38 | | * kvandivo pokes mikegrb. |
12:38 | <mikegrb> | not too hard with one of those kits |
12:38 | <mikegrb> | heh |
12:38 | <mikegrb> | yha I saw that |
12:38 | <mikegrb> | are you referring to the first one chutt fixed? |
12:39 | <kvandivo> | ya. :) |
12:39 | <mikegrb> | yes, threads :/ |
12:39 | <kvandivo> | i suspect that second one was a severe heisenbug that i'll probably never see again, now that i'm looking for it |
12:39 | <kvandivo> | threads had nothing to do with the xbox one, actually.. |
12:39 | <mikegrb> | really |
12:39 | <mikegrb> | I'll have to take another look at it |
12:39 | <Chutt> | yup |
12:40 | <Chutt> | just Qt crappiness |
12:40 | <mikegrb> | oh |
12:40 | <Chutt> | i've fixed it, no worries |
12:40 | <mikegrb> | yes I saw you fixed it |
12:40 | <mikegrb> | it takes a certain level of smarts to code |
12:40 | <kvandivo> | look at your irc logs from last night, mike.. it's pretty clear when you look at the trace and have a bit of background on how things work (which chutt provided) |
12:40 | <mikegrb> | multply times 50 to get the level required for debugging |
12:41 | <mikegrb> | thanks for the pointer kirby, I will |
12:41 | <mikegrb> | I've been so busy on oftc lately |
12:41 | <mikegrb> | haven't spent much time on freenode |
12:41 | <mikegrb> | I actually became staff on oftc just yesterday :) |
12:42 | <kvandivo> | actually, you can't look at your logs. looks like they are broke |
12:42 | <mikegrb> | well they have moved |
12:42 | <mikegrb> | www.michaelandheidi.net/irc |
12:42 | <kvandivo> | ahh.. that's probably it. :) |
12:43 | <mikegrb> | though soon to be www.thegrebs.com/irc |
12:43 | <mikegrb> | michalandheidi is just way too long <g> |
12:55 | <kvandivo> | Captain_Murdoch_: I agree that a smaller box would be cool for the 'time i think this commercial is'.. i was just thinking that the code for 'info' could be hijacked pretty quickly to do the midlevel commercial skip notify thing.. |
12:55 | -!- | dopez [~unknown@dopez.xs4all.nl] has joined #mythtv |
12:57 | <sfr> | on the topic of skipping commercials: is it possible to display the osd a few seconds before the skipping? |
12:58 | <kvandivo> | you mean the little info box, for instance? right now, i'm not aware of that possibility in the code |
12:59 | <sfr> | i think right before skipping it shows the osd saying 'skipping X seconds' or something like that. |
12:59 | <kvandivo> | now if you were asking if it were possible in the sense of 'could code be written to do that?'.. I think you know the answer. :) |
12:59 | <sfr> | 42? |
13:00 | <kvandivo> | i believe the info box shows up at the exact point of the commercial skip, and stays on the screen for a couple of seconds telling you that it has already skipped X seconds |
13:01 | <sfr> | afair i never saw the osd after the jump, only as you say on the exact point of the commercial skip. |

13:30 | <o_cee> | and mythbrowser as well |
13:31 | <o_cee> | seems to be something funny going on with the commits list, i haven't got any message about mythbrowser beeing imported.. strange |
13:31 | <Chutt> | imports don't get sent out |
13:32 | <o_cee> | oh, okay. |
13:32 | <o_cee> | does it require kde? |
13:34 | <Chutt> | i believe so |
13:34 | <o_cee> | :\ |
13:37 | <o_cee> | running blackbox |
13:38 | <sfr> | the kde libs might suffice |
13:38 | <Chutt> | you don't need to be running kde. |

13:56 | <Chutt> | i haven't looked at it |
13:56 | <o_cee> | ah, okay |
13:56 | <Chutt> | and as long as blue works ok, that's fine |
13:56 | <o_cee> | no patch needed for the other theme, liquid? |
13:57 | <o_cee> | totally forgot about it |
13:57 | <Captain_Murdoch_> | cool, just got an email from Avermedia in response to my request for docs for the M179. They want me to call them on Monday and also to reply via email letting them know what I need to get the M179 audio working with the ivtv driver. |

14:25 | <o_cee> | got that one covered then.. but flurries is harder.. |
14:25 | <o_cee> | okay.. |
14:26 | <Chutt> | light snow with wind |
14:26 | <o_cee> | will have to use the same as rain/snow for now |
14:26 | <warlord> | I dont think the wind is required for it to be called flurries, is it? |

16:39 | <nulltank> | i have a reqeust for comment... |
16:40 | <nulltank> | i built my first mythtv box with gentoo; it took me a while to get it working and i never did get my gforce 200 mx or 400 mx cards working with tv-out... |
16:41 | <nulltank> | so now i need to build a box for a friend and i'm wondering what OS i should use; any advice? |
16:42 | <hadees> | is there anything else i need to do for lcd support other than enable it in mythtv? like download a driver or set somthing up in my kernel? |

18:25 | <o_cee> | if that's the case it doesn't work :) |
18:26 | <o_cee> | at least not here |
18:27 | <thor_> | it certainly looks like that is what it is supposed to do ... it's in the same block as all those other ones in ui.xml |
18:27 | <o_cee> | yeah.. |
18:28 | <o_cee> | my guess would be that is what's its supposed to do |

18:36 | <o_cee> | don't you think that "Search for music" should be something like "Update the database".. my girlfriend didn't understand why she didn't get a way to search for music.. :) |
18:37 | <o_cee> | expected a search dialog of some kind |
18:37 | <thor_> | ah |
18:37 | <thor_> | heh |
18:37 | <o_cee> | or it could be put into the setup maybe |
18:37 | <thor_> | well, Update the database doesn't sound quite right either |
18:37 | <o_cee> | not sure what to call it |
18:38 | <thor_> | Check For New Music ? |
18:38 | <o_cee> | better |
18:38 | <o_cee> | hmm |
18:38 | <thor_> | It is "SCan" |
18:38 | <thor_> | Scan |
18:39 | <o_cee> | it is? checking the translation |
18:40 | <o_cee> | yeah.. it says scan.. |
18:40 | <o_cee> | not as bad. but thte swedish translation needs fixing :) |
18:41 | <o_cee> | "Scan for new music" might be even more clear |
18:41 | <thor_> | yup |
18:41 | <o_cee> | you going to change it now? |
18:42 | <o_cee> | in that case you can get an updated .se right away |
18:42 | <o_cee> | says "Search for music" now, heh |

21:02 | <manu> | Hi all |
21:03 | <manu> | Chutt, I have checked with XFree86 guys for the XvMC stuff |
21:04 | <manu> | Here are the drivers which support it :intel i810 |
21:04 | <manu> | (not i830/45/etc.), the savage source code S3/VIA released (not yet integarted into xfree86), possibly the VIA CLE266 driver, and the Nvidia binary drivers |
21:05 | <manu> | So finally my ATI card does not support (perhaps GATOS drivers do) and the message in my XFree log file was misleading |

22:56 | <manu_> | Hi! Can someone tell me how to use Alsa natively? |
22:57 | <manu_> | I modified the settings.pro before compiling for that |
22:57 | <manu_> | But I see this when I launch mythfrontend |
22:57 | <manu_> | "Unknown video codec: Opening OSS audio device '/dev/dsp'." |
22:59 | <manu_> | Does this really mean it uses the oss emulation, or is just the message misleading and it really uses alsa natively? |

23:08 | <manu> | Hmm, sorry I have been disconnected : I was watching TV using mythTV, and my box locked up hard (hard reset)! |
23:09 | <manu> | Does anyone answer my question about alsa in the meantime? If yes could you resend it please? Thanks. |
23:09 | <hadees> | what question about alsa? |
23:10 | <manu> | How to use alsa drivers natively? |
23:10 | <manu> | I have changed the settings.pro to do that but I am not sure it changed something (and yes I recompile myth after ;-) |
23:12 | <manu> | Just to explain why I am doubting : when I launch mythfrontend, there is this : |
23:12 | <manu> | Unknown video codec: Opening OSS audio device '/dev/dsp'. |

23:26 | <Ripp> | I'm using 4496 without any problems |
23:27 | <kja> | Experimental AV sync won't work properly with 4496 |
23:27 | <Ripp> | hm, don't use it... thanks for the tip tho! :) |
23:27 | <kja> | manu: a make distclean;make will probably solve the unknown codec |
23:28 | <kja> | manu: set audio device to ALSA:<something> to not use oss emulation |
23:29 | <kja> | manu: but i think native alsa is broken |
23:29 | <manu> | kja, where do you set that? |
23:29 | <kja> | frontend setup somewhere, don't remeber the exact location |
23:30 | <manu> | kja, I'll check that. But I thought alsa was recommended? |
23:31 | <kja> | nope, if you fix it, it will be :) |
23:31 | <manu> | kja, ;-) |
23:31 | <kja> | i use alsa drivers with oss emulation, because oss drivers is broken |
23:32 | <manu> | kja, yes alsa drivers are generally better; but I thought that mythtv support for native alsa was ok. Seems that I was wrong. |
23:33 | <kja> | last post i saw on the native alsa subject was a bugreport |
23:33 | <D-side> | dont suppose any of you have seen the left audio only/garbled audio on channel change problem... |
23:34 | <manu> | kja, perhaps you know why I have really bad and loud artifacts when changing channels quickly (sometimes, not always)? |
23:34 | -!- | cesman [~cesman@64.30.204.165] has joined #mythtv |
23:35 | <kja> | do you see audio has changed messages on the console? |
23:37 | <manu> | kja, nope. I just did it : change channels several times in a row (fast enough that it is still prebuffering when you already change) |
23:38 | <kja> | and it messed up without that message? |
23:39 | <manu> | Yes |
23:39 | <kja> | could be your drivers (or a race in AudioOutputOSS) |
23:39 | <manu> | it could be my drivers : I use the inboard sound card (on a nforce2 board) |
23:40 | <kja> | hmm, me too...with alsa drivers |
23:40 | <manu> | you use the i8x0 ones? |
23:41 | <kja> | yup |
23:42 | <manu> | then no se ;-) the speakers are z640 logitech |
23:43 | <kja> | i switched to alsa because the oss drivers (nvidia binary|i810) would no change to mono properly... |
23:44 | <manu> | I just had it just changing channel (I go up, watch one second, then go down, and ouch this f**k artifact ;-) |
23:44 | <manu> | it is not that loud, but still noisy. |
23:45 | <manu> | A part of that, I have great 5.1 when watching/hearing a DVD with mplayer, but there it is native alsa |
23:45 | <manu> | it can be that alsa oss emulation is not really good |
23:46 | <kja> | and you do not get swamped with audio data lost either? |
