| 00:00 | <Lenolium> | It is builtin... I can compile it out into a module, if you think it would help, but the oss emulation stuff is in modules. |
| 00:01 | <thor_> | well, wouldn't hurt, but if it's built in and came in on dmesg, what's xmms do on /dev/dsp0 ? |
| 00:01 | <billytwowilly> | Lenolium: follow this: http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/doc-php/template.php?company=Nvidia&card=nForce&chip=NM2360&module=intel8x0 |
| 00:02 | <thor_> | the alsa docs are actually very good if you follow them to the letter |
| 00:02 | <Lenolium> | Grr... vnc and clipboards.. |
| 00:02 | <billytwowilly> | yah. The alsadocs worked for me when I was running mandrake 9.1 with the same setup. |
| 00:04 | <Lenolium> | aplay plays .wav files properly (just tested), alsamixer also works |
| 00:04 | <thor_> | sounds like you're pretty much there |
| 00:05 | <Lenolium> | What device name should I tell mythfrontend to use? |
| 00:05 | <thor_> | probably /dev/dsp0 |
| 00:05 | <thor_> | unless you've got btaudio stuff coming in first |
| 00:06 | <thor_> | man aplay |
| 00:06 | <thor_> | and check the device setting |
| 00:06 | <thor_> | to make sure |
| 00:08 | <thor_> | scratch that |
| 00:08 | <thor_> | the aplay bit |
| 00:09 | <thor_> | Chutt, if you're up ... the thread pool stuff in backend looks about right :) |
| 00:10 | <Lenolium> | thor_: Bad news, there is no /dev/dsp* |
| 00:10 | <thor_> | but it's really the server itself that has to be thread-safe, the threads just execute all over it, correct |
| 00:11 | <Lenolium> | thor_: I'll read up my alsa docs. |
| 00:12 | <thor_> | Lenolium, I think you want the snd_pcm (oss *emulation*) stuff loaded ... I've found Myth talking OSS to be very happy with alsa modules as long as the emulation is there |
| 00:15 | <Lenolium> | thor_: Okay... but it seems to be giving me fits... |
| 00:17 | <thor_> | Chutt ... if you catch this on scrollback .... I'm a bit confused by how you can have a pool of threads running over MainServer::ProcessRequest(QSocket *sock) |
| 00:17 | <thor_> | ... not a mutex in sight .... ? |
| 00:22 | <Lenolium> | Back to "Audio buffer overflow, audio data lost!" around 24 times a second... |
| 00:22 | <thor_> | crap |
| 00:25 | <Lenolium> | I think it might be a backend issue... |
| 00:25 | <Lenolium> | tons of this in the backend dmesg buffer: bttv0: skipped frame. no signal? high irq latency? |
| 00:26 | <rcam> | thor_ Gonna get that album art in? |
| 00:26 | <Lenolium> | That would probably do it, wouldn't it? |
| 00:27 | <thor_> | Lenolium, sounds likely |
| 00:27 | <thor_> | rcam, not tonight :-) it's sleepy time for me |
| 00:28 | <Lenolium> | xawtv seems to get along without a problem... |
| 00:28 | <thor_> | not full duplex |
| 00:31 | <Lenolium> | Why would I need full duplex? This is a pure backend, recording only should be fine... |
| 00:31 | <thor_> | ah |
| 00:32 | <thor_> | sorry, sleepy .... not making too much sense |
| 00:32 | <Lenolium> | thor_: Hey, sleepy, drunk, I ain't picky, I just need some help, the dents in my wall are becoming far too large. |
| 00:33 | <Lenolium> | 2003-12-02 22:32:01 9 0[]:[]596 <-- I wish I knew what these ment |
| 00:35 | <Lenolium> | btw, xawtv is running to a remote display, so it's not just overlay that is working... |
| 00:40 | <Lenolium> | and if I startup mythbackend, I hear the audio from to the proper channel. |

| 00:49 | <D-side> | hm. |
| 00:50 | <CyberKnet> | Boy. It sure is a good feeling to see TV happening for the first time =) |
| 00:50 | <D-side> | bttv isnt showing up in a kernel config. what could i be missing. all options for i2c are done already. |
| 00:54 | <D-side> | well, nevermind that crap. |
| 00:59 | <Lenolium> | Grrr... my bttv device is on the same interrupt line as like 4 other devices |
| 01:08 | <Lenolium> | I just wish that it worked! That's all ;) |
| 01:10 | <tmk> | move it to a diff. pci slot. that may change its irq |
| 01:10 | <tmk> | also disable stuff you're not using (serial ports? printer port?) |
| 01:12 | <Lenolium> | if xawtv works, should it be fine? |

| 01:22 | <billytwowilly> | 2.96 |
| 01:22 | <billytwowilly> | but that was ages ago.. |
| 01:23 | <Lenolium> | Using 3.3.2 ... |
| 01:23 | <billytwowilly> | that's fine. |
| 01:25 | <Lenolium> | Any debian package to play .nuv files? or do I need to export them? |
| 01:25 | <billytwowilly> | someone made a modified mplayer a while ago.. probably have to export them. |
| 01:25 | <billytwowilly> | unless you have a pvrx50. then just rename them to .mpg. |
| 01:27 | <Lenolium> | no, I have a crappy bttv based card. |
| 01:28 | <billytwowilly> | then export. |
| 01:29 | <Lenolium> | where is the exporter? |
| 01:29 | <Lenolium> | I have the CVS tree downloaded... |
| 01:30 | <billytwowilly> | I don't know... You sounded like you knew what you were doing, I was just agreeing with you;) |
| 01:32 | <Lenolium> | hehe, I know what I am doing, but mythtv is always one step ahead of me, and now has a solid track-record of defeating me soundly. |
| 01:33 | <DogBoy> | it's called nuvexport |
| 01:34 | <DogBoy> | the mplayer on knoppmyth plays the nuv files directly |
| 01:36 | <Lenolium> | Okay, so my frontend gets stuck at "wating for prebuffer..." ... and after I kill it, I can no longer get any data from my backend... |
| 01:38 | <billytwowilly> | Just grab knoppmyth and stop hurting yourself;) |
| 01:38 | <billytwowilly> | This is starting to get painful;) |
| 01:38 | <Lenolium> | my backend server runs debian. And has a lot more on it than just mythtv. |

| 02:27 | <rcam> | Hey |
| 02:28 | <rcam> | I am running a backend... I am running a front end off cd. It is not connecting to the database... I have never done this before any one that has... please explain what i need to know? |
| 02:29 | <DogBoy> | you're asking this stuff in the wrong channel |
| 02:29 | <DogBoy> | hehe |
| 02:30 | <DogBoy> | you need a static ip on the backend |
| 02:30 | <DogBoy> | you boot the cd and put that ip in and voila |
| 02:31 | <rcam> | wish it worked that way |
| 02:31 | <rcam> | DogBoy What do I need todo on my backend? |
| 02:31 | <DogBoy> | it did for me |
| 02:31 | <DogBoy> | re run mythtv-setup |
| 02:31 | <rcam> | DogBoy join knoppmyth so we can talk about this hehe. |
| 02:31 | <rcam> | figures |
| 02:32 | <DogBoy> | under general set the ip of the backend to something other than loopback |
| 02:33 | <rcam> | i think i got it |
| 02:37 | <rcam> | Hmm... |
| 02:37 | <rcam> | DogBoy still wont connect on my front end |
| 02:38 | <rcam> | The login and password should be set as mythtv / mythtv right?\ |
| 02:40 | <DogBoy> | there are some instructions for using cd frontend on his site |
| 02:40 | <rcam> | Where? I cannot see to well with Lynx? |
| 02:41 | <DogBoy> | man, that's a bummer |
| 02:42 | <DogBoy> | it's in the topic in that other chatroom |
| 02:42 | <rcam> | I know that... I founded it. |
| 02:42 | <rcam> | But I mean where on the site? |
| 02:42 | <DogBoy> | yeah, so what was the basis for your question... |

| 04:18 | <o_cee> | sweden |
| 04:18 | <robbie__> | ahh |
| 04:20 | <robbie__> | doing a cvs update and rebuild to see if your theme looks proper |
| 04:20 | <o_cee> | okay |
| 04:20 | <billytwowilly> | Is CVS pretty stable? |
| 04:20 | <o_cee> | i'm running it |
| 04:20 | <billytwowilly> | What's different/better than in 0.12? |
| 04:20 | <o_cee> | robbie__: make sure you make a distclean |
| 04:21 | <billytwowilly> | Is it worth me upgrading? |
| 04:21 | <robbie__> | did do |
| 04:21 | <o_cee> | billytwowilly: you don't want cvs unless you're aware what's new |
| 04:21 | <robbie__> | current cvs runs very nice |

| 04:21 | <robbie> | well current as in few days ago |
| 04:21 | <o_cee> | where? hmm |
| 04:21 | <robbie> | billytwowilly: its a list you subscribe to at mythtv.org |
| 04:22 | <robbie> | you get emails about updates |
| 04:22 | <billytwowilly> | robbie: I'm familiar with that, I'd much rather be able to see it online like with the other mailing lists. |
| 04:22 | <billytwowilly> | Is it cached anywhere? |
| 04:22 | <robbie> | duno, have a look at myhtv.org |
| 04:22 | <o_cee> | why don't you look at the friggin page?? |
| 04:22 | <robbie> | mythtv even |
| 04:22 | <billytwowilly> | nothing on mythtv.org |
| 04:22 | <billytwowilly> | point to an archive. |
| 04:23 | <o_cee> | no! |
| 04:23 | <o_cee> | it's on the bloody page |
| 04:23 | <billytwowilly> | err. pointing to an archive. |
| 04:23 | <billytwowilly> | nothing on mythtv.org pointing to an archive of the emails. |
| 04:23 | <o_cee> | then you're blind. |
| 04:23 | <o_cee> | stopd making noise before you find it. |
| 04:23 | <billytwowilly> | http://www.mythtv.org/modules.php?name=MythInfo |
| 04:24 | <billytwowilly> | no link to an online searchable archive. |
| 04:24 | <o_cee> | hush |
| 04:24 | <o_cee> | who said anything about searchable? |
| 04:24 | <billytwowilly> | sigh... there isn't an online archive other than browsing the source directly listed on the page is what I'm trying to get at. |
| 04:25 | <o_cee> | what else would you want from a commits list? hmm |
| 04:26 | <billytwowilly> | If it was an archive of the emails it would give an easy to see chronology of what was committed. No point searching through the source in its entirety to see all the commits. |
| 04:26 | <robbie> | http://mythtv.org/pipermail/mythtv-commits/ |
| 04:26 | <robbie> | google helps |
| 04:26 | <billytwowilly> | robbie: Thank you. |
| 04:27 | <billytwowilly> | that should be linked on the webpage. |
| 04:27 | <o_cee> | IT IS DAMMIT! |
| 04:27 | <o_cee> | stupid |

| 04:31 | <billytwowilly> | robbie: Not being an asshole also helps. I was quite civil with o_cee and he was a jerk. |
| 04:32 | <o_c\annoyed_as_h> | right. |
| 04:32 | <billytwowilly> | It's true. |
| 04:32 | <o_c\annoyed_as_h> | i told you, it IS in the PAGE. you didn't even bother to look |
| 04:34 | <billytwowilly> | I did look. it isn't on that page I linked to. |
| 04:34 | <o_c\annoyed_as_h> | yes it is. |
| 04:34 | <o_c\annoyed_as_h> | wich proves that you STILL haven't looked close enough. |
| 04:35 | <billytwowilly> | no it isn't. There is a link to the sign up page to the cvs commits list which has the link to the online archive. |
| 04:35 | <o_c\annoyed_as_h> | good boy, now you got it. |
| 04:35 | <o_c\annoyed_as_h> | was it that hard to find? |
| 04:36 | <billytwowilly> | the other two mailing lists have links to the online archives right there next to the link to sign up. |
| 04:36 | <billytwowilly> | It's illogical that there would be a link to the archive on the signup page and not have it linked right there on the page I linked to, thus I said it should be linked to on that page. |
| 04:38 | <billytwowilly> | it should be linked right on the webpage, like the other two mailing lists. |
| 04:38 | <billytwowilly> | after I made that comment you went off into a blind rage calling me stupid even though I was right that it wasn't linked on the page. |
| 04:38 | <billytwowilly> | thus you were being a jerk. |
| 04:40 | <o_c\annoyed_as_h> | if you want to be a jerk, be my guest |
| 04:40 | <o_c\annoyed_as_h> | http://www.mythtv.org/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-commits/ |
| 04:40 | <o_c\annoyed_as_h> | that page is still mythtv.org |
| 04:40 | <o_c\annoyed_as_h> | and it links to the archive |
| 04:40 | <o_c\annoyed_as_h> | so, yeah, there is a link to the arhive on mythtv.org. |
| 04:41 | <o_c\annoyed_as_h> | now i've got better things to do. |
| 04:41 | <billytwowilly> | Not on the page I linked to asking you to show me where the link was and the page that didn't have the link on it. |
| 04:42 | <o_c\annoyed_as_h> | <billytwowilly> nothing on mythtv.org |
| 04:42 | <o_c\annoyed_as_h> | <billytwowilly> point to an archive. |
| 04:42 | <o_c\annoyed_as_h> | wich is wrong |
| 04:42 | <o_c\annoyed_as_h> | now i won't talk to you about this anymore. |
| 04:43 | <billytwowilly> | Then I clarified with the direct link to the page that should have the link on it.. sigh.. I hope you are decent at coding because you are certainly lacking in social skills. |

| 09:34 | <kvandivo> | i was wondering last night as i had to make my browser window bigger to see the entire page (well, the descriptions, actually).. does it need to be defined as wide as it is? |
| 09:34 | <o_cee> | could you make a screenshot? it shouldn't be any problems on 800x600 |
| 09:34 | <o_cee> | or are you running lower than that? |
| 09:35 | <kvandivo> | hmm.. probably about 600x1000.. I run at 1280x1024 and put two browsers side by side |
| 09:35 | <o_cee> | this recording will start in 0 hours and -1 minutes... |
| 09:35 | <kvandivo> | but there didn't seem to be any obvious reason that it _needed_ to be as wide as it is.. |
| 09:35 | <o_cee> | friggin preroll and conflicts! |
| 09:35 | <kvandivo> | perhaps a percentage number instead of an absolute number of pixels.. |
| 09:36 | <o_cee> | nah, i just made it look good with 800x600 |
| 09:36 | <o_cee> | maybe |
| 09:36 | <o_cee> | this countdown crap is driving me nuts |
| 09:36 | <o_cee> | now the preroll didn't kick in because it's already recording another show |
| 09:36 | <kvandivo> | i hope you are making the function nice and general so that it can be used in other places in myth to determine how long it is until a show is going to start |
| 09:37 | <kvandivo> | :) |
| 09:37 | <o_cee> | could do, just put it inside the other stuff for now |
| 09:37 | <o_cee> | but how the hell should i fix this |
| 09:38 | <o_cee> | need to check if it's conflicting as well.. :\ |
| 09:38 | <o_cee> | why can't the rectime just return the actual starttime of the recording? |
| 09:38 | <o_cee> | and not when it _might_ or _should_ start :) |
| 09:39 | <o_cee> | i'll just do "will record soon" if the minutes are going negative for now |
| 09:41 | <o_cee> | another thing kvandivo |
| 09:41 | <o_cee> | the countdown is now not showing the seconds |
| 09:41 | <kvandivo> | are you familiar with bug #5 from my list? |
| 09:41 | <o_cee> | but, it should, if they where there.. 1 minute and 59 seconds. isntead it says just 1 minute.. should i subtract 60 seconds for that you think? |
| 09:42 | <o_cee> | kvandivo: haven't seen it |
| 09:42 | <o_cee> | or maybe i have... |
| 09:42 | <kvandivo> | you could always round the number and say approximately if you don't want the seconds. |
| 09:42 | <o_cee> | seconds felt silly having there |
| 09:42 | <o_cee> | but when it says 1 minute, it's really more than 1 minute.. |
| 09:42 | <mikegrb> | howdy kvandivo |
| 09:42 | <kvandivo> | well, there is always the issue of the web page not being dynamic |
| 09:42 | <kvandivo> | hola, mg |
| 09:43 | <o_cee> | yeah |
| 09:43 | <kvandivo> | which is why absolute times are nice to have.. |
| 09:44 | <o_cee> | like in? |
| 09:45 | <kvandivo> | like in... this show will start at 7pm, as well as how long it will be until it starts |

| 09:46 | <dja> | o_cee: are you working on the status webpage? |
| 09:46 | <kvandivo> | o_cee: refer to http://www.gossamer-threads.com/perl/mailarc/gforum.cgi?post=83862;search_string=;guest=1698299&t=search_engine#83862 |
| 09:47 | <kvandivo> | for a description of what i was talking about with bug #5 on my list |
| 09:47 | <kvandivo> | the bug in the GetAllPending code is what i am talking about. |
| 09:47 | <o_cee> | dja: yeah |
| 09:48 | <dja> | one small request? Would it be easy to include the version? |
| 09:48 | <o_cee> | kvandivo: "as well as how long it will be until it starts" isn't that what i'm trying to do? :) |
| 09:48 | <o_cee> | dja: version of? |
| 09:48 | <o_cee> | mythtv? |
| 09:48 | <dja> | yup |
| 09:48 | <o_cee> | i'll have a look |
| 09:48 | <o_cee> | probably |
| 09:49 | <dja> | cool -- thanks....I was gonna look at it, but I'm having troubles with my pvr-250 all of a sudden (bad audio, occasional freezes) -- gotta spend time trying to get it stable again. :-( |
| 09:49 | <kvandivo> | yes, o_cee.. i was just providing some input on why absolute times can be more useful in a web (ie., non dynamic) environ |
| 09:51 | <o_cee> | ah, okay :) |
| 09:51 | <o_cee> | will try to sort things out |
| 09:54 | <o_cee> | have to talk to someone who knows the schedules |
| 09:54 | <o_cee> | scheduler |
| 09:55 | <Peitolm> | are all of the plugins available from the same cvs server? |
| 09:56 | <o_cee> | yes. |
| 10:00 | <Peitolm> | thanks |
| 10:03 | <o_cee> | kvandivo: maybe a meta-refresh of 60 seconds? |
| 10:04 | <kvandivo> | i would prefer not. i wouldn't want my backend busy serving that web page if not needed |
| 10:05 | <o_cee> | probably true |

| 10:40 | <rcam> | _Nero_ I don't have it ethier. |
| 10:40 | <rcam> | _Nero_ I think they changed the image name. |
| 10:40 | <_Nero_> | dont have the maps either? or the problem? |
| 10:40 | <_Nero_> | ahhh.. gotcha.. |
| 10:41 | <rcam> | I have no map. |
| 10:41 | <rcam> | And I did a few days ago. |
| 10:41 | <_Nero_> | so did I.. any way, short of going into the code, to change what file it looks for? |
| 10:43 | <rcam> | I have no idea. |
| 10:44 | <rcam> | Obviously something in MythWeather. |
| 10:44 | <rcam> | Find out who wrote MythWeather and ask them. |
| 10:48 | <CyberKnet> | re the radar doppler image... I get it. |
| 10:49 | <o_cee> | chiphead: thx :) |
| 10:50 | <chiphead> | o_cee, are you going to change the status page inside myth to reflect the new look? |
| 10:50 | <o_cee> | you mean the new system status thingie? |
| 10:51 | <chiphead> | yeah |
| 10:51 | <o_cee> | wouldn't think that's html.. :) |
| 10:51 | <chiphead> | it currently only shows the status ofr the guide data |
| 10:51 | <chiphead> | no its not |
| 10:52 | <o_cee> | haven't looked at it at all |
| 10:52 | <o_cee> | maybe i will |
| 10:52 | <rcam> | Do you guys know who wrote MythWeather? |
| 10:52 | <chiphead> | it would be nice to have all the data you display on the web status there as well |
| 10:52 | <o_cee> | rcam: take a look at the README |
| 10:53 | <o_cee> | fiberguy: that theme isn't maintained anymore |
| 10:53 | <rcam> | Any idea whtas wrong with MythWeather in 0.12? |
| 10:53 | | * o_cee is back (gone 06:25:27) |
| 10:53 | <fiberguy> | o_cee: ok, thanks |
| 10:54 | <chiphead> | rcam, since the problem seems to be fixed in the current cvs, I would diff the current with the 0.12 release and see what changed |

| 11:30 | <steelep> | i'm on debian, not that it really makes much difference, BUT what I did do is compile the drivers myself. |
| 11:31 | <steelep> | I had to hack the driver a little until the last version was released |
| 11:31 | <hculver> | was going to go there next, but was working multiple issues. |
| 11:31 | <steelep> | all I did before was add a block specifically for the i810 by copying another block and changing the name |
| 11:32 | <hculver> | I've got my pvr-350 audio out going to my line-in. |
| 11:33 | <hculver> | I missed the damn msp3400 in /lib/modules/blah/kernel/3rdparty/mod_marvel |
| 11:34 | <_Nero_> | hculver- that got me for the longest time as well!! |
| 11:35 | <hculver> | It was driving me crazy. If I boot and then load the drivers manually with insmod everything worked, but modprobing ivtv I would get no sound. |
| 11:35 | <_Nero_> | hculver- have you tried running the mandrake mm kernel?? |
| 11:36 | <hculver> | No, I'm running 2.4.22-21mdkcustom built from their kernel-source. |
| 11:36 | <_Nero_> | I am running a customized mandrake mm kernel, with i810, and have had no problems with my i810 and ALSA. |
| 11:36 | <_Nero_> | (by customized, I mean, built from their source.. had to switch serial to a module for lirc) |
| 11:38 | <hculver> | OK, now I feel stupid. I've never seen kernel-multimedia-source before. |
| 11:38 | <_Nero_> | its on the contrib mirrors.. |
| 11:38 | <_Nero_> | 2.4.22-21mm.2mdk |
| 11:39 | <hculver> | Ah, that explains it. I only just urpmi.addmedia'd a contrib mirror a day or two ago. I had a hard enough time finding kernel-source for 9.2. |

| 11:40 | <_Nero_> | that was pretty appauling.. |

| 13:40 | <kvandivo> | do you have icon paths, i wonder.. |

| 13:42 | <kvandivo> | although you shouldn't be required to have an icon path in the first place.. |
| 13:45 | <Peit|Home> | yes |
| 13:45 | <kvandivo> | nm.. doesn't have anything to do with that.. |
| 13:46 | <kvandivo> | line 1038 is grabbing element 4294967293 of the array, which, obviously, points to bad data |
| 13:47 | <Peit|Home> | o.k. is that grabing anything like currentchannel - (lines to display / 2) |
| 13:47 | <Peit|Home> | is that gg.cpp? |
| 13:48 | <kvandivo> | gridguide.cpp is what i meant |
| 13:48 | <Peit|Home> | ah |
| 13:49 | <kvandivo> | i'd like to know what value m_currentStartChannel has, and what the size of m_channelInfos is |
| 13:50 | <Peit|Home> | is that in sql? |
| 13:50 | <kvandivo> | no. it's in code. |
| 13:51 | <kvandivo> | in your settings.. i don't have a gui in front of me.. |
| 13:51 | <Peit|Home> | currenstartchannel, |
| 13:51 | <kvandivo> | there is a setting for that.. what is it set to? |
| 13:52 | <Peit|Home> | DefaultTVChannel | 3 |
| 13:52 | <Peit|Home> | chanPerPage | 7 |
| 13:52 | <Peit|Home> | i think chanperpage was 8 when it crashed |

| 15:18 | <Peit|Home> | Chutt: got a sec for a potentially braindead question |
| 15:19 | <Peit|Home> | does the channel change command work like "change_channel <channel_number>"? |
| 15:21 | <emice> | mikegrb: when you stretch, does the top and bottom of the myth interface get cut off? |
| 15:21 | <mikegrb> | no I use the "full" mode on the tv |
| 15:22 | <emice> | my TV isn't here yet but from what I read online a combination of cropping and non-linear stretching is used to make things look somewhat believable.. |
| 15:22 | <Chutt> | yup |
| 15:22 | <mikegrb> | it stretches the sides |
| 15:22 | <mikegrb> | there is some stuff in mythtv for 16:9 output but I haven't used it |
| 15:22 | <mikegrb> | emice: yha mine has that too |
| 15:23 | <emice> | I see.. so I should stick to full mode.. I'll have to see how it looks |
| 15:23 | <emice> | or maybe take a peek at the 16:9 code.. |
| 15:23 | <mikegrb> | emice: I just prefer full mode, the strectching really isn't that noticeable /especially/ after you have watched for a week or so |
| 15:23 | <mikegrb> | yes |
| 15:23 | <thor_> | Chutt, should I assume the lack of killit() calls in backend is just that we don't really care ... if someone's taking down mythbackend, there's little point in cleanly dropping responding threads ? |
| 15:23 | <mikegrb> | if you can get your video card to do 16:9 output especially |
| 15:24 | <emice> | is the stuff for 16:9 in myth ready for release? |
| 15:24 | <Peit|Home> | is there a way of getting the actual command that it runs, i'm running with "/usr/local/bin/mythbackend -v channel,osd" and all i see is "change_channel &" |
| 15:24 | <emice> | I'll probably toy with that |
| 15:24 | <emice> | though then I would assume myth would have to stretch TV images |
| 15:24 | <emice> | using its own algorithm |
| 15:25 | <emice> | if it ran at widescreen resolution at least |
| 15:25 | <mikegrb> | emice: there has been some sort of code for a long while now it has been changed a bit lately |
| 15:25 | <Peit|Home> | i would expect to see "change_channel 30 &" or something similar |
| 15:25 | <emice> | yeah, a lot of people are getting widescreen now.. |
| 15:25 | <Chutt> | thor, right |
| 15:26 | <thor_> | k |
| 15:26 | <emice> | is there documention on that code anywhere mikegrb? |
| 15:26 | <Chutt> | peit|home, why don't you just set the command to 'echo' for a second :p |
| 15:26 | <Peit|Home> | just echo? |
| 15:26 | <emice> | or would I have to download it and go picking through myself? |
| 15:26 | <Peit|Home> | i get a blank line |
| 15:28 | <emice> | I'm curious how it works.. whether it depends on display the myth interface at a widescreen resolution or if it squishes the interface anamorphically while running at a 4:3 resolution.. |
| 15:28 | <Chutt> | then your database isn't setup right or whatnot. |

| 15:54 | <hculver> | This may be a stupid question, but is there a way to have mythvideo use the decoder of the pvr-350 (what is the mplayer cmd line?). |
| 15:54 | <hculver> | I can certainly use something like mplayer -vo fbdev (but that doesn't use the decoder). |
| 15:54 | <Peit|Home> | hmm, um, channum appears to be empty :( |
| 15:56 | <chiphead> | Chutt, are there any other contexts that can be set in keybindingd besides "Global" and "TV Frontend"? |
| 15:58 | <Peit|Home> | is there a way of telling mythtv to use the channum rather than the freqid when changing channels? |
| 16:00 | <Chutt> | chiphead, of course. |
| 16:00 | <Chutt> | peit|home, err, no, that's the point of having a separate field for it. |

| 17:39 | <kvandivo> | question for anyone interested in offering input.. I'm putting the finishing touches on some code that will add a button to the 'delete program' popup box that can be used for deleting programs that were recorded incorrectly (ie., the ballgame ran over, the station changed the schedule, etc) which indicates that the program should be deleted, but it should also be eligible to be recorded the next time that it shows up. |
| 17:40 | <kvandivo> | essentially, it will delete it, and remove entries from the oldrecorded table (via the forgetHistory function that sent the patch for yesterday) |
| 17:40 | <kvandivo> | Right now, I'm calling the button "Yes, wrong show recorded" or something like that. anyone have a suggestion for better wording? |
| 17:40 | <o_cee> | what screen is this on? |

| 17:42 | <o_cee> | don't really understand what the difference is..? when deleting a recorded program, the schedule isn't touched, is it? |
| 17:42 | <kvandivo> | by default, myth only records a show once. once it has recorded it, it will never record it again, if it has the same title/subtitle/description |
| 17:43 | <kvandivo> | but in the case of a wrong recording this is not the desired behavior |
| 17:44 | <o_cee> | "Incorrectly recorded" |
| 17:44 | <Peit|Home> | forget show? |
| 17:44 | <kvandivo> | 'forget show' would be a bit too nebulous for a user that doesn't already know what it means |
| 17:45 | <o_cee> | this applies when using "reord this show at any time"? not a fixed timeslot? |
| 17:45 | <kvandivo> | doesn't matter, actually |
| 17:45 | <o_cee> | when will it b erecorded if it was supposed to be at that time then? |

| 18:11 | <jeffpc> | oh, and yesterday, it also recorded only the 14:00 episode and not the 15:00 |
| 18:11 | <jeffpc> | and I had the frontend on |
| 18:11 | <o_cee> | something wrong with your schedule |
| 18:12 | <jeffpc> | what do you mean? that the DB is changing on me? |
| 18:13 | <o_cee> | that you set it up wrong somehow? |
| 18:13 | <jeffpc> | I didn't...debian did :-D |
| 18:14 | <jeffpc> | that was with 0.11...but I made my own CVS .debs on monday |

| 18:16 | <dja_> | quick question in case anyone has any ideas: about once/week my mythbackend "doesn't let go" of /dev/video1 after a recording. The 6544 status page says it's not recording anything, but "Watch TV" returns "MythTV is already..." (I can watch the recorded shows)...ideas? should I go away and post the list instead? :-) |
| 18:17 | <josephk_> | Reboot during a time you're not recording...and post to the list |
| 18:17 | <josephk_> | or should I say restart the backend |
| 18:18 | <o_cee> | thor_: did you look at doing a clock thingie? |
| 18:18 | <josephk_> | or as Chutt would say...go away |
| 18:18 | <thor_> | o_cee, not as such |
| 18:18 | <thor_> | nor the date sensitve icons |
| 18:19 | <o_cee> | not even sure how i'd use it |
| 18:19 | <dja_> | restarting the back end fixes it...the odd thing it isn't "locked up", just the video portion...oh well, I'll post to the list (and crawl back under my rock -- sorry :-) |
| 18:19 | <thor_> | but I have written a new post it note ! |

| 18:56 | <_Nero_> | I'm not sure I understand mythtranscode too well. I just recorded a 30 minute show, MPEG2 @ 6000-8000 bitrate. The resulting file was about a gig. I then transcoded it to mpeg4 @ 2200 bitrate. I ended up with a 1.6gb file, and the quality was terrible. I am not sure what happened. I was under the impression that 2200 bitrate mpeg4 would be smaller than a 6000 bitrate mpeg2.. |
| 18:58 | <DogBoy> | was the orinal noisy? |
| 18:59 | <thor_> | only when I was peeing in it |
| 18:59 | <thor_> | HA HA HA |
| 18:59 | <_Nero_> | no.. it was actually very clear.. |

| 19:02 | <_Nero_> | is there any way to transcode, and keep the original file for comparison?? |
| 19:04 | <jeffpc> | ok, let's see...at 20:00 it is supposed to record ST:TNG, and at 21:00 it is supposed to record U-571 |
| 19:04 | <Peit|Home> | _Nero_: did you transcode the already transcoded file? |
| 19:04 | <jeffpc> | back to back, different channels |
| 19:05 | <jeffpc> | I didn't restart the backend...(that normally fixes it but only for one recording) |
| 19:05 | <_Nero_> | Peit- no.. I transcoded the mpeg2 |
| 19:05 | <Peit|Home> | as for keeping it, you could cp it out to another directory, or perhaps add a hardlink,.. |
| 19:05 | <_Nero_> | ahhhh... I think I know the problem.. |
| 19:06 | <_Nero_> | I set up the mpeg4/rjpeg to do mpeg4.. mpeg2 profile was still set on rjpeg.. |

| 20:09 | <emice> | hey what would the minimum processor requirements be for a MythTV box with a PVR-250? |
| 20:09 | <emice> | I have 566 celeron here and it is chopping up trying to do LiveTV on a WinTV PCI |
| 20:10 | <emice> | even with rtjpeg quality low and doing 160x160 pixel live capture |
| 20:10 | <emice> | so it is fuzzy and choppy now.. |
| 20:10 | <o_cee> | "There's no guide data availible! You need to run mythfilldatabase!" great :) that was another thing on my list to get fixed on 6544. weh :) |
| 20:10 | -!- | shamoun [~shamoun@c-24-10-37-99.client.comcast.net] has joined #mythtv |
| 20:10 | <_Nero_> | emice- sounds to me like you are having write speed trouble.. what kind of hard drive you running? UDMA? |
| 20:11 | <o_cee> | Chutt: you want a diff for it? some other stuff as well, but there will be more.. need to fix the per recording preroll stuff |
| 20:11 | <emice> | hrmm.. not sure.. |
| 20:11 | <_Nero_> | I have an athlon 2600+ (much faster than yours) but recording mpeg2 720x480, I am lucky if I see 3% of my processor in use. |
| 20:11 | <emice> | I tried using hdparm |
| 20:11 | <emice> | to enable dma |
| 20:11 | <emice> | and my kernel log showed DMA |
| 20:11 | <emice> | but still the choppiness |
| 20:11 | <o_cee> | lots of noise |
| 20:11 | <_Nero_> | what does hdparm -i /dev/hda (or whatever your drive is) say? |
| 20:12 | <_Nero_> | (the lines for dma and or udma modes that is) |
| 20:12 | <emice> | just did that |
| 20:12 | <emice> | DMA: mdma0 mdma1 mdma2 udma0 udma1 udma2 udma3 *udma4 udma5 |
| 20:13 | <_Nero_> | humm.. what does top say when you are viewing? (do you have a seperate machine you can SSH in with??) |
| 20:13 | <emice> | yeah I can do that |
| 20:14 | <_Nero_> | (right now I am watching live tv.. top says I am 98.7% idle.. |
| 20:14 | <_Nero_> | ) |
| 20:15 | <emice> | what TV card are you using? |
| 20:15 | <_Nero_> | Hauppauge PVR-250 |
| 20:15 | <emice> | I am using software encoding.. I have a WinTV PCI in there now |
| 20:15 | <_Nero_> | ahhhh.. |
| 20:15 | <_Nero_> | that is your problem then.. (thought I read you were using a PVR-250) |
| 20:15 | <emice> | but I was wondering if a PVR-250 would work on that same setup |
| 20:15 | <emice> | the 566 |
| 20:16 | <emice> | the software encoding stinks on a 566 |
| 20:16 | <_Nero_> | I would guess it should.. |
| 20:16 | <emice> | yeah.. I will put a PVR-250 in I guess.. |
| 20:16 | <_Nero_> | mythbackend is currently using 0.4% of my processor.. bascially uses almost no processor to record with an mpeg2 card. |
| 20:16 | <emice> | though if I get digital cable |
| 20:17 | <_Nero_> | though I'm not sure you will be able to play back.. :-/ |
| 20:17 | <emice> | the PVR-250 will not work with it.. so that'd be a waste.. does mythv support digital cable? |
| 20:17 | <_Nero_> | why will the PVR250 not work with it?? |
| 20:18 | <emice> | it uses a separate tuner |
| 20:18 | <emice> | in a box |
| 20:18 | <_Nero_> | I am using my PVR250 with a DirecTV satalite receiver.. |
| 20:18 | <_Nero_> | then you just have to set up lirc to change the channels for you :) |
| 20:18 | <emice> | how would the pvr250 tune into a channel? |
| 20:18 | <emice> | with an ir emitter? |
| 20:18 | <_Nero_> | yup, or a serial transmitter if your cable box supports it.. |
| 20:19 | <emice> | ahh.. makes sense |
| 20:19 | <_Nero_> | I am using an ir blaster (very simple circuit- cost me about 75 cents to build) and it works great. |
| 20:19 | <_Nero_> | (my cheapie directv box has no low speed data interface) |
| 20:22 | <emice> | nice.. after the pvr-250, next thing will be to see how mythtv acts in widescreen resolution |
| 20:22 | <emice> | I want to output to DVI |
| 20:22 | <_Nero_> | cant help you on that one.. I just have a lowly Sony Trinitron TV.. :) |
| 20:23 | <_Nero_> | you might want to considder a bit quicker processor eventually.. the mpeg2 files from the PVR250 take up quite a bit of space (to get good quality).. so having some processor speed to do transcoding is a nice thing. |
| 20:24 | <jeffpc> | can I stop a scheduled recording before it finishes without deleting the recorded file? |
| 20:24 | <emice> | yeah.. once the budget allows |
| 20:25 | <_Nero_> | jeffpc- yes |
| 20:25 | <jeffpc> | _Nero_: how? |
| 20:25 | <_Nero_> | just go to "watch recordings" select the recording from that screen, and hit "i" |
| 20:25 | <_Nero_> | it will bring up a screen that will ask if you want to stop recording |
| 20:25 | <jeffpc> | let me guess..."i" in "watch recordings" is really special? |
| 20:25 | <jeffpc> | and useful |
| 20:26 | <_Nero_> | I have found it useful :) |
| 20:26 | <_Nero_> | It would be nice to have an option to stop recording while watching (if recording and watching at the same time). |
| 20:27 | <_Nero_> | Just a warning- I have found that on longish recordings, it will sometimes freeze my system up to stop the recording manually.. I suspect (as do others) that it is an ivtv issue. |
| 20:27 | <jeffpc> | I don't use ivtv |
| 20:28 | <_Nero_> | then you shouldnt have any problems :) |
| 20:28 | <jeffpc> | but the backend is blowing up |
| 20:28 | <_Nero_> | when you tried to stop it? |
| 20:28 | <jeffpc> | no |
| 20:28 | <jeffpc> | just when I do just about anything |
| 20:28 | <jeffpc> | ie.: |
| 20:29 | <jeffpc> | sometimes, "view recordings" freezes |
| 20:29 | <jeffpc> | and without restarting the backend, it is impossible to do anything |
| 20:29 | <_Nero_> | humm.. any output from the backend? |
| 20:30 | <jeffpc> | just switching from None to None, I think... |

| 20:58 | <thor_> | Lenolium, still with the sound problems ? |
| 20:59 | <Lenolium> | thor_: I think the problem is actually on the backend, dmesg fills up with errors about bttv0: skipped frame/etc |
| 21:00 | <thor_> | ah |
| 21:00 | <thor_> | how are you doing audio on the backend, btaudio or sound card capture ? |
| 21:01 | <Lenolium> | thor_: sound card capture. |
| 21:01 | <thor_> | ok ... is there a frontend on the backend machine ? |

| 21:02 | <Lenolium> | thor_: With, or without the backend? |
| 21:03 | <thor_> | with the backend running |
| 21:05 | <Lenolium> | thor_: Gives me the same audio buffer overflow like when I'm running the frontend on a seperate machine... I think I'm not getting video (it's always a black screen) |
| 21:06 | <thor_> | right |

| 21:10 | <thor_> | have you tried the xawtv | arecord test on debugging audio in the docs ? |

| 21:17 | <Lenolium> | Chutt: havn't rebooted yet, will try that next. |
| 21:17 | <Chutt> | seeing as that's probably it, try that first. |
| 21:17 | <thor_> | yup |
| 21:20 | <thor_> | Chutt, in copying the pool stuff from mythbackend .... I guess I don't really understand re-entrancy .... you only have to protect from internal data (inside the class, if you like) not variables declared in a method, even if there's only one instance of the object ... |
| 21:21 | <thor_> | (I think that's a yes or no question) |
| 21:22 | <Chutt> | right |
| 21:22 | <thor_> | ok |
| 21:22 | <thor_> | time to take out a bunch of mutex's :-) |
| 21:22 | <Chutt> | you only have to protect data that's shared, so class member variables |
| 21:22 | <Chutt> | stuff defined in functions is always local |
| 21:23 | <thor_> | and even then, you only have to protect changes, not reads ? |
| 21:23 | <Chutt> | technically, you should lock reads |
| 21:23 | <thor_> | k |
| 21:23 | <Chutt> | it's not necessary quite often, though |
