| 00:00 | <knight_> | ERROR opening file '/mnt/video/Uploads/knight/rips/1007_20021212210000_20021212220000.nuv' in ThreadedFileWriter. |
| 00:01 | <knight_> | weird |
| 00:01 | <knight_> | and perms are fine |
| 00:01 | <Chutt> | only way that'll happen is if the open() fails. |
| 00:02 | <Chutt> | hum |
| 00:02 | <Chutt> | actually |
| 00:02 | <Chutt> | it's probably the fact that that filesystem doesn't support large files |
| 00:13 | <lichen_> | ntfs does, its actually a limitation of samba i believe |
| 00:13 | <Chutt> | right |
| 00:14 | <Chutt> | got some 32bit values in there holding things up =) |
| 00:14 | <Chutt> | anyway, that's the only reason i can think of for the open to fail, if perms are right |
| 00:14 | <lichen_> | hah exactly |

| 07:24 | <Tarrychk> | Hi |
| 07:26 | <Tarrychk> | I have a question about mythtv: how does it cope with filesize limits? |
| 07:41 | -!- | jrh [] has quit [Read error: 110 (Connection timed out)] |
| 07:46 | <_shad> | what limits? |
| 07:48 | <Tarrychk> | shad: fat-filesystems have a filesize limit of 2GB / file |
| 07:48 | <_shad> | why are you using fat? |
| 07:48 | <_shad> | over the network? |
| 07:49 | <Tarrychk> | shad: I'm using the partition with Linux and Windows |
| 07:49 | <_shad> | hrm |
| 07:49 | <_shad> | well |
| 07:49 | <_shad> | you're stuck with 2 gigs then :) |
| 07:49 | <Tarrychk> | shad: AVIs itself have a limit of max. 4GB, AFAIK |
| 07:50 | <_shad> | linux doesn't have the 2gig limitation |
| 07:50 | <_shad> | so I don't think it will ever get 'fixed' |
| 07:51 | <Tarrychk> | shad: but what about the AVI-Limit? will other tools be able to read AVI > 4GB? |
| 07:51 | <_shad> | it doesn't save in avi |
| 07:52 | <Tarrychk> | which format is mythtv using? |
| 07:53 | <_shad> | rtjpeg and mpeg4 |
| 07:53 | <_shad> | I don't know how 'modified' these codecs are though |
| 07:53 | <Tarrychk> | erm... avi is a container for other codecs such as mpeg4 |
| 07:53 | <_shad> | yes |
| 07:53 | <_shad> | but it uses it's own container |
| 07:53 | <CrisTUFR_> | I thought the 4GB AVI limit was a Windows thing... |
| 07:53 | * CrisTUFR_ | shrugs |
| 07:54 | <Tarrychk> | ok, thanks :) |
| 07:54 | <_shad> | hrm. I think mythtv uses a heavily modified nupelvideo |
| 07:54 | <CrisTUFR_> | Yeah. NuppelVideo is diverging from the original quite muchly... :) |
| 07:54 | <_shad> | hehe |
| 07:55 | <_shad> | grr. exam in 30 mins |
| 07:55 | <_shad> | I should go, when it's a 25 min drive |
| 07:55 | * Tarrychk | will do some experiments with reiser and ext2 ;) |
| 07:55 | * CrisTUFR_ | yays because his contrast/brightness works... |
| 07:55 | <Tarrychk> | shad: good luck |
| 07:55 | <CrisTUFR_> | Now to put a face on it. :) |
| 07:55 | <_shad> | heh. thanks |
| 07:55 | <CrisTUFR_> | _shad: enjoy. don't work too hard. :) |
| 07:55 | <_shad> | CrisTUFR_: I didn't bother to study |
| 07:55 | <CrisTUFR_> | _shad: that's my boy. ;) |
| 07:55 | <_shad> | hehe |
| 07:56 | <_shad> | 2 exams today actually |
| 07:56 | * CrisTUFR_ | knocks on wood. that has never happened to him yet. |
| 07:56 | <_shad> | :) I've had 6 total this week and 4 next week |
| 07:56 | <CrisTUFR_> | Actually. I don't think it'll ever happen. |
| 07:57 | <CrisTUFR_> | I will only have one final next term... :D |
| 07:57 | <_shad> | :) |
| 07:57 | <_shad> | ok |
| 07:57 | <_shad> | tty |
| 07:57 | <_shad> | Can't miss it |
| 07:57 | <_shad> | hehe |
| 07:57 | <Tarrychk> | cya |
| 07:57 | <CrisTUFR_> | seeya |
| 07:58 | <CrisTUFR_> | so. is ext3 supposed to be any faster than ext2, or is it just ext2+journalling? |
| 07:59 | <Tarrychk> | chris: ext3 is downward compatible with ext2, so it's just +journaling |
| 07:59 | <CrisTUFR_> | that's what I thought. |
| 08:00 | <Tarrychk> | cris: you can mount ext3 as ext2 without problems |
| 08:00 | <CrisTUFR_> | not very important for a video-only partition then. ext2 should suffice. |
| 08:00 | <CrisTUFR_> | i think that the only benefits of the 'new' filesystems are in the handling of small files... |
| 08:00 | <CrisTUFR_> | (or lots of files, rather) |
| 08:02 | <Tarrychk> | hmmm... I remember to have tried ext2 as video partition |
| 08:02 | <Tarrychk> | but nvrec still had a problem with the 2GB-AVI-Limit, so I changed back to FAT |
| 08:04 | <CrisTUFR_> | I don't worry too much about the file limits, since I don't think I've recorded anything that has more than 2gb. :P |
| 08:04 | <CrisTUFR_> | I guess it'd be good to check with mythtv I guess... |
| 08:05 | <Tarrychk> | Cris: this evening, on VOX (Germany): 330 min Anime nonstop... |
| 08:05 | <CrisTUFR_> | Also, keep in mind that the default ring buffer can grow to 5gb with no problems. |
| 08:06 | <Tarrychk> | Cris: with mjpegtools I would need >25 GB, and divx-encoded it would be >5 GB... far above the 2 GB-AVI-Limit :( |
| 08:06 | <Tarrychk> | default ring buffer? |
| 08:06 | <CrisTUFR_> | yeah. the live tv buffer. |
| 08:06 | <CrisTUFR_> | I didn't take into account your transcoding. |
| 08:07 | <CrisTUFR_> | strange that such an event would be scheduled as a nonstop show, and not a set of the individual shows they're showing... |
| 08:08 | <Tarrychk> | they put a couple of episodes together to get movie-length anime |
| 08:08 | <Tarrychk> | and now they show two of the 'movies' together :\ |
| 08:08 | <CrisTUFR_> | yuck |
| 08:09 | <CrisTUFR_> | just go grab yourself an athlonxp 1800+ w/mobo and ram and you should be fine for straight divx encoding. :D |
| 08:10 | <CrisTUFR_> | oh well. worst case you just do the 25gb thing, watch it, then let it go if it doesn't survive the transcode.. |
| 08:11 | <Tarrychk> | I _have_ an athlon-xp 1800+ ;) |
| 08:11 | <CrisTUFR_> | Then why aren't you just mpeg4-ing it from the start?? :) |
| 08:11 | <Tarrychk> | and my largest partition is about 20 GB *sigh* |
| 08:11 | <Tarrychk> | Cris: the mpeg4 would be about 5 GB |
| 08:12 | <CrisTUFR_> | yeah. I had a 5gb ringbuf.nuv which seemed to work fine... |
| 08:12 | <CrisTUFR_> | I doubt mythtv would just die at 5gb. |
| 08:13 | <Tarrychk> | This morning I was sure, even with Linux AVI could not exceed 2 GB ;) |
| 08:13 | <CrisTUFR_> | well I've had mythtv recordings that have exceeded 2gb... |
| 08:14 | <Tarrychk> | I will try to capture in a single, large AVI, and hope, the process won't die at 2 GB |
| 08:14 | <CrisTUFR_> | It definately won't... |
| 08:14 | <CrisTUFR_> | I recorded a 2hr show that took about 3gb and it was fine. |
| 08:14 | <Tarrychk> | nvrec did; but I should give mythtv a try :) |
| 08:15 | <CrisTUFR_> | mythtv, like i said earlier, has diverged quite a lot from the original nvrec... :) |

| 13:20 | <moegreen> | CrisTUFR: what is happening? |
| 13:20 | <Universe> | only have 2 computers in the house, one is running windows. |
| 13:20 | <CrisTUFR> | moegreen: for some reason, mythtv, or mythfrontend running mythtv won't show up anymore. |
| 13:20 | <Universe> | going to install linux on it and then use cvs |
| 13:20 | <CrisTUFR> | The system is _definately_ running the recording though. |
| 13:21 | <CrisTUFR> | just no sound/video shows up, and I'm still able to muck around in mythfrontend. |
| 13:21 | <Chutt> | someone else was having that problem |
| 13:21 | <Chutt> | current cvs works for me, though |
| 13:21 | <Chutt> | on two different machines |
| 13:21 | <CrisTUFR> | hmm..it worked a minute ago though... |
| 13:21 | <Chutt> | kill the frontend and backend and kick it a few times =) |
| 13:22 | <Chutt> | i dunno |
| 13:22 | <CrisTUFR> | I think it might have started to occur after I did a make install at the same time it was running... |
| 13:22 | * CrisTUFR | ponders.. |
| 13:22 | <Chutt> | ah, that does tend to mess up the backend for some reason |
| 13:22 | <CrisTUFR> | trouble is, it doesn't seem to want to come back to life. |
| 13:22 | <Chutt> | it usually segfaults on the next query if i do that, really weird |
| 13:23 | <Chutt> | what won't start? |
| 13:23 | <CrisTUFR> | it just doesn't show the tv/audio... |
| 13:23 | <Chutt> | heh |
| 13:23 | <CrisTUFR> | the system's definately recording (gotta love loud HDs)... |
| 13:23 | <Chutt> | i dunno then |
| 13:23 | <Chutt> | try to find where it's hanging in the frontend process |
| 13:23 | <CrisTUFR> | me makes clean, then makes install to be sure. |
| 13:24 | <CrisTUFR> | i might just have some weird stuff happening because I tried to make install during playback.. |
| 13:24 | <moegreen> | CrisTUFR: Is the frontend switching to a black screen or does it stay at the tv menu? |
| 13:24 | <CrisTUFR> | moegreen: the latter |
| 13:25 | <moegreen> | i've seen this to ... the backend outputs that the player is switching to WatchingTV then nothing happens |
| 13:25 | <moegreen> | you can then move around on the menu after that correct? |
| 13:25 | <CrisTUFR> | moegreen: yeah |
| 13:25 | <CrisTUFR> | moegreen: that's what I'm getting... |
| 13:25 | <CrisTUFR> | moegreen: but it was just working...very strange. |
| 13:25 | <Chutt> | a thread's stuffed up in the player somewhere |
| 13:25 | <Chutt> | if i knew where =) |
| 13:25 | <moegreen> | CrisTUFR: Is the backend and frontend on the same machine? |
| 13:26 | <CrisTUFR> | moegreen: yessum |
| 13:26 | <moegreen> | CrisTUFR: I can usually get this working by exiting out of both the backend and frontend, and retrying |
| 13:26 | <moegreen> | a few times at least |
| 13:27 | <CrisTUFR> | moegreen: yeah...tried it quite a few times already, and even kicked the x server...certainly strange... |
| 13:27 | <CrisTUFR> | moegreen: i have a clean make install running right now and I'll see if it works after this.. |
| 13:27 | <CrisTUFR> | I just want to make a patch of my change and submit it, dangit! :) |
| 13:28 | <moegreen> | CrisTUFR: does you patch involve watching live tv? |
| 13:28 | <moegreen> | i would assume? |
| 13:28 | <CrisTUFR> | speaking of which, is this pretty much the best way to do it: "cvs diff -c > foo.patch" ? |
| 13:28 | <CrisTUFR> | moegreen: yeah...sorta |
| 13:28 | <Chutt> | -u instead of -c |
| 13:29 | <CrisTUFR> | yeah..that's right. :P |
| 13:29 | <CrisTUFR> | shite...still happens. |
| 13:29 | <CrisTUFR> | my patch was working perfectly. everything was working fine. I edited the theme (and now changed it back) and the only weird thing was doing the make install. :P |
| 13:30 | <Chutt> | so run the frontend in gdb and find out where it's hanging. |
| 13:30 | <CrisTUFR> | well the frontend isn't hanging. :) |
| 13:30 | <CrisTUFR> | I'll try mucking with mythtv.. that's supposed to work, right? :) |
| 13:30 | <CrisTUFR> | (just running mythtv, that is) |
| 13:30 | <Chutt> | a thread started by the frontend is hanging, though |
| 13:31 | <Chutt> | yeah, mythtv works |
| 13:31 | <CrisTUFR> | same behavior happens with mythtv though. |
| 13:31 | <Chutt> | same thread is hanging there :p |
| 13:34 | -!- | gregf [~greg@wnpgmb08dc1-res-105-180.mts.net] has joined #mythtv |
| 13:37 | <CrisTUFR> | Chutt: on your working machines, do you see the "BUG:" lines? |
| 13:37 | <Chutt> | yeah |
| 13:37 | <Chutt> | that's mdz's recording profile stuff |
| 13:37 | <CrisTUFR> | okay. i doubted they contribute to this. :) |
| 13:37 | <Chutt> | nothing important |
| 13:38 | <-- moegreen | has quit () |
| 13:38 | <CrisTUFR> | hmm...going to recordings does the same thing too, btw |
| 13:38 | -!- | moegreen [~moegreen@pa-steclge-u2-c3c-151.stcgpa.adelphia.net] has joined #mythtv |
| 13:38 | <Chutt> | recordings should be using a file, not the server |
| 13:39 | <CrisTUFR> | yeah. i think the player might be mucking up here... |
| 13:39 | <Chutt> | so run it in gdb, hit ctl-c when it's sitting there, and find out where it is |
| 13:39 | <Chutt> | it's not hard :p |
| 13:39 | <moegreen> | recording work for me |
| 13:39 | <Chutt> | moegreen, playback? |
| 13:39 | <CrisTUFR> | yeah. i am in the middle of dbuggin right now.. |
| 13:40 | <moegreen> | yeah, playback of previously recorded files, and recording using the backend |
| 13:40 | <CrisTUFR> | i'm a big-time printf debugger. :) |
| 13:40 | <moegreen> | just having problems with watching live tv |
| 13:40 | <Chutt> | heh, ok |
| 13:40 | <Chutt> | gdb would get it done quicker, but =) |
| 13:40 | * CrisTUFR | is a bit too old skool for his own good. :) |
| 13:41 | <CrisTUFR> | i hate building with debug symbols. :P |
| 13:42 | <moegreen> | Chutt: what's a valid resolution below 480x480? I get errors when trying 352x248 |
| 13:42 | <Chutt> | try 240 |
| 13:43 | <CrisTUFR> | or 480x360 |
| 13:43 | <Chutt> | or 180x120 |
| 13:43 | <Chutt> | if you want a postage stamp |
| 13:43 | <CrisTUFR> | :) |
| 13:43 | <moegreen> | the 352x240 worked |
| 13:43 | <Chutt> | 180x128, really |
| 13:44 | <mdz> | one of these days, I'll track that message down and kill it |
| 13:44 | <Chutt> | mdz, i can kill the message without tracking it down =) |
| 13:44 | <CrisTUFR> | one of these days... :) |
| 13:45 | <moegreen> | hmmm...this cpu is much happier with this resolution |
| 13:45 | <Chutt> | try like 352x480 as well |
| 13:45 | <Chutt> | not quite as big of a quality drop |
| 13:46 | <moegreen> | I may have to invest in a major upgrade, or just a seperate player i suppose :) |
| 13:46 | <CrisTUFR> | hmm...the open() call on the sound card is blocking. |
| 13:46 | <CrisTUFR> | so someone's holdin' her open |
| 13:46 | <Chutt> | i bought my parents an xp 1700+, 256MB of ddr ram, and a cheap motherboard for < $200 |
| 13:47 | <Chutt> | so, now's the time to upgrade, really =) |
| 13:47 | <moegreen> | of course i'm not getting any errors now - perhaps it is just process starvation |
| 13:47 | * CrisTUFR | wishes that was in canadian dollars... :) |
| 13:47 | <Chutt> | 'specially if you can reuse stuff |
| 13:47 | <Chutt> | yeah, sorry, that's like 20,000 in canadian money |
| 13:47 | <CrisTUFR> | hey hey...let's be sensitive here...they're canadian pesos. |
| 13:48 | <CrisTUFR> | :) |
| 13:48 | <Chutt> | heh |
| 13:48 | <CrisTUFR> | what's the command for checking file usage again? |
| 13:48 | <moegreen> | I've got a 1.2 ghz athlon - maybe i'll just get a cheapo computer as a player (I probably have enough old parts to make that happen) |
| 13:48 | <Chutt> | the p3-500 i'm using for testing uses ~ 50% cpu to play back 640x480 mpeg4 =) |
| 13:48 | <gregf> | no doubt, we need some canadian deals that are that cheap |
| 13:49 | <moegreen> | it is fun to drink in canada though - more bang for your buck! |
| 13:49 | <CrisTUFR> | same goes for getting prostitutes, I guess. :D |
| 13:49 | <gregf> | is there a problem using myth in 1024x768 with mpeg4? |
| 13:50 | <Chutt> | i doubt your tuner card captures that high |
| 13:50 | <moegreen> | Chutt: I suppose my athlon could easily encode at 640x480 when not displaying on the same machine? |
| 13:50 | <gregf> | sorry, i mean the x resolution |
| 13:50 | <gregf> | not the capture res |
| 13:50 | <Chutt> | gregf, then, no |
| 13:50 | <Chutt> | moegreen, i dunno =) |
| 13:50 | <Chutt> | transmitting stuff only seems to use a % or two of my machine, but |
| 13:51 | <Chutt> | i have no idea how well it works for others |
| 13:51 | * CrisTUFR | hates how he can't remember command names... |
| 13:52 | <moegreen> | the 352x480 works well so far, except my usage has gone through the roof again :) |
| 13:53 | <Chutt> | heh |
| 13:53 | <moegreen> | 1.0% idle! hehehe |
| 13:55 | <CrisTUFR> | okay. say I can't figure out who is currently accessing a file...what do I do to unblock someone's open call on a resource? |
| 13:56 | <Chutt> | kill the process |
| 13:56 | <Chutt> | =) |
| 13:56 | <moegreen> | CrisTUFR: I believe the command you are looking for lsof |
| 13:56 | <CrisTUFR> | but what process is holding that file descriptor? |
| 13:56 | <Chutt> | lsof or fuser |
| 13:56 | <CrisTUFR> | that's the one!! |
| 13:57 | <gregf> | to use mpeg4 do i need to do anything other than change the codec from rtjpeg to mpeg4 in settings.txt? |
| 13:57 | <Chutt> | nope |
| 13:57 | <gregf> | obviously i can play with the quality once it is working, but...just to start |
| 13:58 | <CrisTUFR> | go fuser -k! |
| 13:58 | <CrisTUFR> | :) |
| 13:58 | <gregf> | yesterday i was tryin gthat and i would get about 10% of my screen on top had unwatchable video, with the other 90% being bright green |
| 13:59 | <gregf> | that was with mpeg4, rtjpeg worked fine |
| 13:59 | <Chutt> | there's no functional different between the two. |
| 13:59 | <Chutt> | the only thing is it compresses the video with a different function |
| 13:59 | <moegreen> | Chutt: QSocketNotifier: Multiple socket notifier for same socket 17 and type write (repeated 6 times) then a seg fault ... [Switching to Thread 32771 (LWP 752)], 0xblahblah in QSocket::flush() from /usr/local/qt/lib/libqt-mt.so.3 |
| 13:59 | <Chutt> | moegreen, where's it from, though? |
| 14:00 | <moegreen> | it's in the mythfrontend while watching live tv |
| 14:00 | <Chutt> | no, in my code |
| 14:00 | <Chutt> | that doen't tell me anything, really |
| 14:01 | <moegreen> | ok, i'm in gdb at the point of failure - what do i need to do to tell you where in the code it is? |
| 14:01 | <Chutt> | type bt |
| 14:02 | <Chutt> | what versino of qt are you using, btw? |
| 14:03 | <moegreen> | From the bottom up, NuppelVideoPlayer.cpp:1785 (NuppelVideoPlayer::StartPlaying), NuppelVideoPlayer.cpp:1062 (NPV::GetFrame), RingBuffer.cpp:465 (RingBuffer::Read), RingBuffer.cpp:412 (RingBuffer::safe_read), remotefile.cpp:167 (RemoteFile::RequestBlock), util.cpp:30 (WriteStringList), then the QSocket::flush |
| 14:03 | <moegreen> | version 3.1.0 |
| 14:04 | <Chutt> | hmm |
| 14:06 | <Chutt> | ok, first, could you try commenting out the qApp->processEvents() and the associated if a few lines up from the socket->flush() call in writestringlist in util.cpp? |
| 14:08 | <moegreen> | from here: int temp = socket->writeBlock(utf8.data() + written, size); |
| 14:08 | <moegreen> | to here: qApp->processEvents(); |
| 14:08 | <Chutt> | just the processevents calls |
| 14:08 | <Chutt> | call |
| 14:08 | <Chutt> | the if (size > 0) qApp->processEvents() |
| 14:09 | <moegreen> | ok, it's commented out |
| 14:09 | <Chutt> | and run stuff, see if that changes anything |
| 14:09 | <moegreen> | recompile and install I assume? |
| 14:09 | <Chutt> | yup |
| 14:09 | <Chutt> | won't have to recompile everything, of course |
| 14:09 | <moegreen> | right |

| 14:13 | <moegreen> | heh |
| 14:13 | <Chutt> | ok |
| 14:13 | <Chutt> | it started livetv? |
| 14:13 | <moegreen> | yeah |
| 14:13 | <moegreen> | hmm...well actually |
| 14:13 | <Chutt> | is that better than before? |
| 14:13 | <moegreen> | it was in live tv before |
| 14:15 | <CrisTUFR> | zippity zoom. the patch has been submitt0r3d :) |
| 14:15 | <moegreen> | CrisTUFR: what does the patch do? |
| 14:16 | <CrisTUFR> | moegreen: adjustment of contrast, brightness, and colour saturation during live tv playback. |
| 14:16 | <CrisTUFR> | I used to have to switch to xawtv to mess with that before. |
| 14:16 | <moegreen> | nice - controlled while watching the playback? |
| 14:16 | <CrisTUFR> | And it's great to tweak it while you have the compression in place so you can get rid of the macroblocks that might appear in certain areas... |
| 14:16 | <CrisTUFR> | yeah. only in live tv though. |
| 14:17 | <moegreen> | cool, bbl |
| 14:17 | <CrisTUFR> | because it modifies the tuner's settings... |
