06:40 | <mzb_d800> | any dvd experts online? (esp. re mythburn.py?) |
06:41 | <laga> | just ask your question? |
06:41 | <mzb_d800> | I've managed to get a random playback function working reasonably well in mythburn |
06:41 | <mzb_d800> | but I either want to |
06:41 | <mzb_d800> | a) use more registers |
06:42 | <mzb_d800> | (ie. enable the additional registers afforded by a dvdauthor option) |
06:42 | <mzb_d800> | b) use bitwise operations to emulate a shuffle mode |
06:42 | <mzb_d800> | or |
06:43 | <mzb_d800> | c) use a combination of "last played" and "simulated shuffle" to achieve (almost) the real thing |
06:43 | <mzb_d800> | . |
06:44 | <mzb_d800> | the random function I've got going now works ok for what it is |
06:44 | <mzb_d800> | but I don't trust the randomness of the dvd player's random function |
06:45 | <mzb_d800> | so "simulating" a shuffle mode, which gets difficult with a large number of titles, is possible, but really depends on how many registers I can play with |
06:46 | <mzb_d800> | I can always write code for *all* possibilities (including the ability to enable "extra registers") |
06:46 | |-| | h0mer`- [n=a@p5B0FD835.dip.t-dialin.net] has quit [Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer)] |
06:47 | <mzb_d800> | but I'm hoping for guidance on the idea |
06:48 | <mzb_d800> | so far, the easiest way is to use only the first 6 gp registers, and use (at least) 4 of those for a "last played" queue, so that poor randomness is not so noticeable (in the short term) |
06:49 | <mzb_d800> | (I may be able to re-use an extra register to get a total of 5 depending on how I write the logic) |
06:50 | <mzb_d800> | a better method involves using a bitwise method to mark tracks played, but that will depend on a) the total number of titles, and b) the number of available registers |
06:51 | <mzb_d800> | eg. 4*16=64 titles |
06:51 | <mzb_d800> | to create a shuffle mode |
06:52 | <mzb_d800> | enabling extra register mode *might* make it possible to do much more ... and achieve true shuffle mode |
06:52 | <mzb_d800> | it all depends on how compliant the "extra register" mode is, and what other functions need to be used (that need registers) |
06:53 | <mzb_d800> | either way, I guess making bitwise op functions, with a register for in+out would probably be a good idea |
06:54 | <mzb_d800> | laga: see why I wanted a dvd expert? :)) ... I can keep going :) |
06:54 | [~] | laga hides |
06:54 | <mzb_d800> | heh |
06:54 | <mzb_d800> | lol |
06:55 | <mzb_d800> | not to worry laga ... thanks for listening :) |
06:56 | <mzb_d800> | I'll wait for somebody to stick their neck out :) |

12:01 | <gbee> | hmm, remote isn't working on my frontend |
12:02 | [~] | justinh throws the shitty intel board out of the window |
12:02 | <laga> | justinh: ? |
12:03 | <justinh> | too OT to explain here. it's going up for sale tomorrow |
12:03 | <laga> | sad. was hoping it'd make my own day seem better ;) |
12:06 | <justinh> | sufficient to say.. Intel.. video.. sucks dogs' nuts |
12:07 | <justinh> | so desperate for it to work I'm dist-upgrading to gutsy :( |
12:07 | <gbee> | my day was pretty boring, christmas shopping and some bloke calling himself an optician sticking dye in my eyes |
12:07 | <justinh> | on the light side though, gonna get wasted out of my brain tonight.. erm.. I mean I'm going out for a couple of jars |
12:08 | |-| | leprechau [i=charlie@c-71-228-201-48.hsd1.tn.comcast.net] has joined #mythtv |
12:09 | <justinh> | gbee: dye? never been subjected to that one. the funny goggles yes.. but dye.. no |
12:10 | <gbee> | justinh: that bad, the video I mean? I've never tried to do anything graphics intensive with Intel GPUs but couple of machines I've setup worked well out of the box |
12:10 | <gbee> | justinh: contact lense related, helps to show up any possible damage caused by the lenses to my eyes, or something like that |
12:10 | [~] | laga just hopes justinh wasn't trying dapper ;) |
12:10 | <justinh> | svideo is only monochrome & xorg is ignoring the options |
12:11 | <laga> | oh. |
12:11 | <justinh> | if I had a spare 600 in my back burner I'd just say"easy, off to get a panel I go" |
12:12 | <gbee> | for some reason, since upgrading my frontend has been booting in monochrome, but once the nvidia driver is loaded it snaps back to colour |
12:14 | <justinh> | but if I could afford to just go out & buy a panel I'd have to have a mac mini anyway & to hell with having to turn the amp on to get audio ;) |
12:14 | <gbee> | it's a shame too, because my nice MythTV boot theme goes to waste |
12:15 | <justinh> | heh. if this svid works in gusty I'll still have to wait til X starts to see owt |
12:15 | <gbee> | decided to get the 19" LG, should make my life easier working on two screens instead of one :) |
12:25 | <laga> | justinh: if it doesn't work you can still make a vga->scart cable ;) |
12:25 | <justinh> | yeah _right_, what with intel's superb support for modelines & all :-\ |
12:26 | <justinh> | and on a TV with only one RGB input? not an option |
12:26 | <justinh> | I think I'm starting to reach a point where running mythtv is proving to be too expensive |
12:27 | <laga> | justinh: i was going to try my cable with my laptop which has intel graphics soon. i'll let you know how it goes |
12:27 | <laga> | no, you just need to buy working hardware :) |
12:27 | <justinh> | I've been reliably informed it should just work(tm) with a newer driver |
12:28 | <justinh> | hopefully gutsy has it |
12:28 | <laga> | i can provide you with a .deb for an even newer intel driver |

12:28 | <justinh> | I don't want Intel. I was i810 :) |

12:28 | <justinh> | *want |
12:28 | <laga> | any particular reason? |
12:28 | <laga> | what chipset is that? |
12:29 | <justinh> | i945 |
12:29 | <laga> | is there any reason not to use "intel"? |
12:30 | <justinh> | I dunno. compiling myth was quick so I don't mind having to do the video hack |
12:30 | <laga> | well |
12:30 | <laga> | the normal OSS "intel" driver does not exhibit that problem. |
12:31 | <laga> | it's a whole different thing from IEGD |
12:31 | <justinh> | there's 'intel' and 'i810' ? |
12:31 | <justinh> | be nice if the docs said |
12:31 | <justinh> | I really don't care which, if one of them works! ;) |
12:32 | <laga> | try "intel", i doubt you will regret it |
12:32 | <laga> | in upstream Xorg, "i810" will just use intel anyways AFAIK |
12:32 | <justinh> | I'll let this upgrade finish first. that might do it |
12:33 | <laga> | :) |
12:33 | <justinh> | other options include putting a pci-e riser in the case with a nvidia card but that's a very last resort |
12:37 | <gbee> | justinh: I'm used the i810 driver on the laptop I setup for my parents recently, worked great |
12:38 | <gbee> | but I don't know what xorg is doing behind the scenes, could be using 'Intel' instead |
12:40 | <gbee> | actually just ignore me, I probably know less on the subject than you do and I'm just likely to confuse the issue |
12:40 | <justinh> | depends on the chipset, ultimately |
12:40 | <justinh> | intel GPUs have many different tvout configurations AFAIK |
12:44 | <jams> | gbee- is there a way to force the screen to refresh? |
12:46 | <gbee> | update(); |
12:46 | <gbee> | oh, you mean outside the code? |
12:47 | <jams> | no update should be what i want |
12:47 | <gbee> | ok |
12:47 | <jams> | got the buttons works, now i'm working on the listbox |
12:49 | <gbee> | update triggers a paint event, called without an argument it refreshes the whole screen, if you only need it to update a portion of the screen then use the area of the container/object in the form of a QRect as an argument |
12:49 | <gbee> | e.g. update(container->GetArea()); |
12:50 | [~] | justinh takes notes :) |
12:50 | <jams> | hmm that didn't help, will revisit after i hook up the other stuff. |
12:50 | <gbee> | GetAreaRect() for containers and getScreenArea() iirc |
12:53 | <gbee> | jams: you are using mythdialog or myththemeddialog? |
12:54 | <gbee> | justinh: btw, just committed that mythnews change, I updated the core themes and will sort out your svn ones in a few minutes |
12:54 | <justinh> | oh cheers :) |

13:06 | <justinh> | upgraded. still in mono. bah |
13:09 | <jams> | http://jmeyer.us/screens/preview1.jpg still needs work, but at least it's possible to theme mythsmolt |
13:11 | <gbee> | thought I was the only one using that OS |
13:11 | <jams> | heh |
13:11 | <gbee> | can't say it's looking good :p but good work ;) |
13:12 | <jams> | true true, i'm just happy to have something working |
13:12 | <gbee> | I hate the listbtnarea widgets, so ugly and not much you can do to theme them |
13:13 | <jams> | i started with a managedlist and hated it. |
13:13 | <jams> | felt it was to much work for this little app. |
13:13 | <gbee> | listarea is the prettiest of the three |
13:14 | <gbee> | but only because it doesn't force that graded background on you |
13:14 | <gbee> | and you can adjust the up/down arrow position |
13:14 | <gbee> | and define custom arrow images |
13:14 | <gbee> | etc |
13:15 | <jams> | well i'm going to finish up with what i have then wait for you to provide mythui examples |
13:16 | <jams> | even this is better then the previous qt widgets |
13:17 | <gbee> | yeah |
13:18 | <gbee> | at the time these widgets were created, I have no doubt they were far superior to what came before and that they were fit for purpose |
13:18 | <jams> | at this rate i can have commit access in another 4 years :) |
13:19 | <laga> | justinh: maybe there's a BIOS setting you missed |
13:19 | <gbee> | but with mythui we have a chance to create the perfect UI library from the ground up, without endlessly bolting on changes to the existing framework |

17:54 | <rooaus> | I have a 1 line hack but think it may break "correctly working" setups, going to test on my production box soon. |
17:55 | <gbee> | anyone know why MythNews is using bitBlt() to draw containers? As opposed to everywhere else where we use drawPixmap()? |
17:57 | <gbee> | it's academic I suppose, but I'm curious |

18:27 | <hads> | rooaus: I don't think I've seen that issue here sorry. |
18:35 | <gbee> | turns out mythnews really only works properly with mythbrowser installed - as plugins go, it's not really that useful |

18:36 | <gbee> | I really need to stop repeating myself in a sentence |
18:44 | <GreyFoxx> | fin: the myth multirec branch will recording multiple channels from a single dvb card now |
18:45 | <GreyFoxx> | oops |
19:06 | <sphery> | gbee: Yeah. I noticed the need for MythBrowser, too. I don't install it (don't want KDE libs on my system). |
19:07 | <gbee> | sphery: I've not installed it, although for different reasons |
19:07 | <sphery> | gbee: I keep telling myself one day I'll write an extension for FF to allow remote-control navigation and provide hooks to FF in MythNews, but still haven't gotten around to it. |
19:08 | <gbee> | sphery: the browser used is controlled by a hidden setting, so you could use FF, but it wouldn't be integrated in quite the same way |
19:09 | <sphery> | Cool. So, all I need is the extension to make navigation from a remote work. :) |
19:09 | <gbee> | but it begs the question why mythnews is a seperate plugin, or an official plugin at all - it doesn't really do anything useful without mythbrowser |
19:09 | <gbee> | WebBrowserCommand |
19:09 | <sphery> | Yeah. I could see it being integrated into MythBrowser. |
19:11 | <jams> | i have only used it to quickly view headlines. works well for that. |
19:12 | <gbee> | jams: if you don't mind reading a headlines like "Blast kills 5, wounds 50" without knowing where it happened and who was involved :) |
19:13 | <gbee> | I've just found it frustrating |
19:13 | <jams> | i could see that |
19:14 | <gbee> | if I were using it on a TV frontend, at that point most users would have to either turn on the TV news or go to lookup the article on their computer |
19:15 | <gbee> | the latter is probably more likely since most of the feeds offered by mythnews are specialist news, stuff that isn't covered on the TV |
19:16 | <gbee> | so at the end of the day, if you want to browse RSS feeds, better to do it from a PC than on your TV |
19:16 | <sphery> | gbee: Since you've kind of inherited MythWeather :), do you know whether the InnoDB thing was just an oversight or by design ( http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/dev/302941#302941 )? |
19:17 | <gbee> | sphery: happened before my time, I've no idea why those tables are using innodb instead of myisam |
19:17 | <sphery> | OK. Just curious. |
19:18 | <gbee> | if I looked at the schema, there might be some clues, like the use of foreign keys and cascade |
19:19 | <gbee> | but it's probably just an oversight |
19:19 | <sphery> | cool |
19:22 | <gbee> | heh, there are comic feeds in mythnews, stuff which makes no sense in the absence of a browser to view them |
19:32 | [~] | xris would rather see stuff like a youtube plugin than mythnews. heh |
19:34 | <jams> | the heliocreek people have one |
19:34 | <sphery> | xris: there's always http://sourceforge.net/projects/heliocreek/ |
19:40 | <xris> | there.. much better color scheme for newmyth: http://newmyth.forevermore.net/ |
19:41 | <xris> | interesting. didn't know myth had been forked. heh |
19:43 | <laga> | yeah. they found out that you only get highest performance when you run everything with highest privileges |
19:43 | <laga> | that's why they use sudo for everything |
19:43 | <xris> | funny. I just run everything as root. heh |
19:47 | <xris> | did we ever decide on a new default theme for mythtv? |
19:47 | <xris> | gbee: do you plan to release your new one gpl? |
19:48 | <laga> | that'd mean mythtv would use a -wide theme by default, right? |
19:49 | <xris> | or spend some time tweaking it to fit in 4:3 |
19:50 | <xris> | I still vote for figuring out some way to embed multiple aspect ratios into a theme so that different versions can share content |
19:50 | <xris> | make a 16:9 theme, and then put a 4:3 dir inside of it to hold only those files that are different in 4:3 mode |
19:50 | <xris> | then have myth auto-detect which version to use |
19:51 | <jams> | that would be just about all of the files |
19:51 | <xris> | even images? |
19:51 | <jams> | only thing that wouldn't change are things like buttons |
19:52 | <jams> | all the background images and overlays couldn't be reused. |
19:53 | <xris> | ah |
19:53 | <xris> | myth must be slightly less configurable than I thought, then |
19:53 | <gbee> | xris: I've been agonising over that, I agree with Justin to some extent that if you consider a theme a piece of art, to see someone mutilate it is hard, but I'd also like to release it under the GPL because that gives it the greatest chance of shipping with mythtv |
19:53 | <xris> | I'm used to HTML where images get split up into component pieces to place around the screen |
19:54 | <xris> | mythtv really needs a new/better default theme |
19:54 | <jams> | xris- will you can do that, but still the images need to be resized to fit. |
19:55 | <gbee> | xris: I agree that we need a better default, or at least to replace some of the existing core themes |
19:55 | <xris> | yeah, definitely |
19:56 | <xris> | we need some updated screenshots, too. heh |
19:57 | <gbee> | heh, aye |
19:57 | <jams> | heh yes i agree |
19:59 | <gbee> | xris: I think it's safe to say that the theme will be released under the GPL, but I won't let go easily, it will be like grown up child leaving home and I'll be praying that it doesn't turn up dead in a gutter a week later |
19:59 | <xris> | heh |
19:59 | <xris> | any thoughts about color/layout on http://newmyth.forevermore.net/ ? |
19:59 | <xris> | I need someone to help me make it shiny |
19:59 | <xris> | but also need content. |
20:00 | <gbee> | I can help with both were you want |
20:01 | <gbee> | as far as the colour goes, my gut feeling is that you've got one colour too many |
20:01 | <xris> | I think I have the pages figured out... might need to rearrange a few in the code, but that's no biggie |
20:01 | <xris> | haven't removed all of the green yet |
20:01 | <jams> | xris which theme do you want new screenshots of? |
20:01 | <xris> | I'm also considering breaking the color stuff out of this css file and creating a separate css for color |
20:01 | <xris> | jams: depends on which theme will be default in .21, I think |
20:01 | <xris> | we should be consistent |
20:01 | <jams> | k |
20:02 | <jams> | i can take care of those |
20:03 | <hads> | The bottom bar on that test site doesn't work in Konqueror. |
20:03 | <gbee> | yeah, it's not the green, but I can't say which exactly which needs to go - you've got dark blue text, light grey text and black text, four different background colours and the light blue border |
20:05 | <gbee> | generally I like where you are going with it, but something isn't quite right and I'm pretty sure it's either that there are too many colours or that one of them is clashing with the others |
