| 12:17 | <PeteCool> | glxgears is reporting 514 fps in my current config... should that be enough power to run the mythmusic visualisations at a respectable rate? |
| 12:17 | <PeteCool> | and, even though the console tells me it's 514fps, on the tv it looks like <100fps |
| 12:19 | <PeteCool> | this is on a GF2 MX400 SDR (not fast, but still not the slowest near-modern thing) |
| 12:22 | <PeteCool> | also, the Gears visualisation give my a white screen |
| 12:22 | <PeteCool> | any ideas why? |

| 13:39 | <Chutt> | hmm |
| 13:55 | <rkulagow_> | hi, chutt. are you here? (no timestamp on the "hmm") |
| 13:56 | <Chutt> | yeah, i'm here |
| 13:57 | <rkulagow_> | chutt, i was thinking a little more about the full duplex stuff. there's also another situation where duplex may be an issue: mythbackend recording something, mythmusic playing something. |
| 13:57 | <Chutt> | hmm, true |
| 13:57 | <Chutt> | but shouldn't the same output device be used for the frontend and mythmusic? |
| 13:58 | <Chutt> | well, generally, at least |
| 13:58 | <rkulagow_> | yes, but you asked me to move the check to the ringbuffer area. won't that only get hit during live tv? |
| 13:58 | <Chutt> | right |
| 13:58 | <Chutt> | but, people are going to try that first, i'd say |
| 13:58 | <rkulagow_> | ok. |
| 13:58 | <Chutt> | and they should hopefully notice the message |
| 13:59 | <rkulagow_> | if mythbackend gets daemonized, then we'll have to write that to the logfile, correct? |
| 13:59 | <Chutt> | hmm |
| 13:59 | <Chutt> | yeah |
| 14:00 | <Chutt> | but, the logfile is just stdout and stderr, i believe |
| 14:00 | <Chutt> | nothing special |
| 14:00 | <Chutt> | and hopefully people won't run the thing as a daemon immediately =) |
| 14:00 | <rkulagow_> | i was thinking that it might be "too late" at that point - if they're not full duplex and try to do this, then they won't see the error until after mythfrontend locks up. (although it will be useful for debugging) |
| 14:01 | <rkulagow_> | not that i'm saying we need to do anything special, just thinking about it. |
| 14:03 | <rkulagow_> | i'll try to redo the full duplex check in the ringbuffer area after i get a coax connected to my tuner; i'm getting "connection timed out" when mythfrontend connects to the backend when i try to do Watch TV, and i don't know if that's because there's no input to the tuner card, or because there's something else broken. |
| 14:03 | <Chutt> | a connection timed out would mean that backend_settings.txt has a wrong ip in it |
| 14:13 | <rkulagow_> | that's what i thought, but i just double checked and the IP is correct. curious. |
| 14:13 | <rkulagow_> | i'm going to checkout mainserver.cpp again and make sure i didn't screw something up. |
| 14:17 | <Chutt> | i'm going to be committing some stuff shortly |
| 14:17 | <Chutt> | per-host settings |
| 14:18 | <Chutt> | so there's going to be a db update, etc |
| 14:18 | <rkulagow_> | i guess all those NULLs are going away... |
| 14:18 | <Chutt> | yup |
| 14:18 | <Chutt> | well, some of them will stay |
| 14:18 | <Chutt> | global settings |
| 14:30 | <rkulagow_> | huh. it appears that if you run mythbackend from within the mythbackend directory as ./mythbackend it reads the local copy of backend_settings.txt within that directory rather than the global at .mythtv or /usr/local/share/mythtv. |
| 14:30 | <rkulagow_> | that's why it kept giving me connection timed out; i never changed _that_ backend settings.txt file. |
| 14:40 | <Chutt> | that's how it reads settings files |
| 14:40 | <Chutt> | from [prefix]/share/mythtv/, then ~/.mythtv/, then ./ |
| 15:05 | <Chutt> | mdz, you're not on the v4l list, are you? |
| 15:06 | <Chutt> | Gerd Knorr (aka, the bttv/xawtv guy) describes that driver as "Broken beyond repair :-/" |
| 15:16 | <mdz> | Chutt: nope |

| 16:21 | <Chutt> | mdz, meant that daemonize = true in there? |
| 16:21 | <mdz> | aw,crap |
| 16:21 | <mdz> | my tree is too divergent |
| 16:21 | <Chutt> | cvs diff before ci =) |
| 16:21 | <Chutt> | debian stuff, or.. |
| 16:22 | <mdz> | just my local stuff |
| 16:22 | <mdz> | I usually do cvs diff, but sometimes I don't see things, especially if they're in the same hunk |
| 16:22 | <mdz> | shall I change it back? or have you changed your mind? :-) |
| 16:22 | <Chutt> | i don't want it daemonizing all the time |
| 16:23 | <Chutt> | so, yeah, please change it back |
| 16:23 | <Chutt> | you could enable that option, though |
| 16:23 | <Chutt> | -f or whatever it is that sets it to false currently |
| 16:23 | <mdz> | at release time, don't you think it should daemonize by default? |
| 16:24 | <mdz> | your DSL must be congested |
| 16:24 | <Chutt> | not unless asked to, no |
| 16:24 | <Chutt> | yup, it is |
| 16:24 | <Chutt> | i can barely check email right now |
| 16:24 | <Chutt> | someone's browsing my book database |
| 16:24 | <mdz> | 4000ms rtt from here |
| 16:25 | <Chutt> | and it looks like a couple cvs updates |
| 16:25 | <mdz> | I see...I assumed it was going to daemonize by default eventually; that's why I set it up the way I did |
| 16:25 | <Chutt> | i'd prefer for it to only do it when asked on the command line |
| 16:26 | <mdz> | whatever, I'll change it then |
| 16:26 | <mdz> | add an option to run in the background |

| 18:40 | <Chutt> | hmm, whaddya know, i got sdl to work in a qwidget |
| 18:42 | <bigguy> | cool |
| 18:53 | <mdz> | Chutt: what was the trick? |
| 18:54 | <Chutt> | i dunno |
| 18:54 | <Chutt> | i had deleted everything |
| 18:54 | <Chutt> | i just rewrote it |
| 18:54 | <Chutt> | after compiling a debug version of sdl |
| 18:55 | <Chutt> | and it worked, so i tried it with the real version from debian, and that worked |
| 18:55 | <Chutt> | so i must've been doing something wrong before, but what, i dunno =) |
| 18:56 | <Chutt> | i also am scaling it back to 25 fps, instead of 30 |
| 18:56 | <Chutt> | so, synaesthesia uses less cpu now |
| 18:58 | <Chutt> | 'bout 30% cpu usage, instead of > 45% on my box |
| 18:58 | <mdz> | that sounds like a lot |
| 18:59 | <Chutt> | eh, it's worth it =) |
| 18:59 | <mdz> | I used to run synaesthesia, the stand-alone version, on a much slower machine than I'm running myth on now |
| 18:59 | <Chutt> | mdz, you probably didn't run it at 800x600, though |
| 18:59 | <mdz> | hmm, perhaps not |
| 19:00 | <Chutt> | i should make the vis stuff a little more generic |
| 19:00 | <Chutt> | add support for text displays |
| 19:00 | <Chutt> | and keyboard commands |
