| 00:02 | <davatar> | speaking of, I have nearly 0% cpu on any mpeg4 playback, just little blips every 30 seconds or so :)... however if I'm watching while anything is recording cpu usage jumps by 20% at mythbackend.. I bet there's something that can be tuned. |
| 00:05 | <dmitry> | i still get no errors and no tv tuning. grrrr. |
| 00:06 | <dmitry> | i spent the last 7 hours trying to make it work =/ |
| 00:06 | <mchou> | dmitry:u still working on that?? |
| 00:07 | <mchou> | dmitry:so do u get anywhere? |
| 00:09 | CyberKnet | is now known as kNetAway |
| 00:09 | <dmitry> | nope :] xawtv launches fine now, everything seems to work, no errors, and still can't see any tv. |
| 00:09 | <davatar> | hah.. I guess there's no way to unconfgure mythweb out of wap mode? |
| 00:09 | <mchou> | dmitry: what do u see, blue screen? |
| 00:10 | <dmitry> | i see a blue screen in tvtime, and a blackscreen in xawtv. i right arrowed (fine tuning) for a while in xawtv and i got some static or something. |
| 00:13 | <dmitry> | maybe the frequency gets corrupted somehow... |
| 00:13 | <mchou> | no, I think u got to define the tuner..... |
| 00:14 | <mchou> | what u need do is try different tuner parameters...i.e tuner=1...10, rmmod -r each time u try.... |
| 00:14 | <Netslayer> | davatar, depends on the wap u used, but i think u just have to tell i to stop using that wap theme, in a settings file |
| 00:15 | <dmitry> | mchou: hmm. according to the readme, i'm using the correct settings.. |
| 00:15 | <dmitry> | in fact it's recognized properly i think. |
| 00:15 | <dmitry> | but i'll try anyway |
| 00:21 | <davatar> | Netslayer: nah, just figured it out.. it makes a cookie on the client :) |
| 00:22 | <Netslayer> | there are quite a few wap projects for myth right now |

| 00:26 | <DJ_Rican> | ohh cool... from the browse i can hit 'r' and record immediately... :) |
| 00:27 | <ShockValue> | hi all.. when i play DVD's from my internal IDE player, i get slight streaking and/or choppyness with high-movement scenes. |
| 00:27 | <cmorgan> | hardware dvd decoding? |
| 00:27 | <ShockValue> | im not sure, ive never tried dvd on computer before |
| 00:27 | <cmorgan> | crt or lcd monitor? or tv? |
| 00:27 | <ShockValue> | tv |
| 00:27 | <cmorgan> | hmm |
| 00:28 | <ShockValue> | i have ide dvd player, 700mhz, 640MB ram.. dma is enabled |
| 00:28 | <ShockValue> | oh and geforce2 playing through svideo |
| 00:29 | <ShockValue> | is it just my system cant keep up? |
| 00:29 | <monkyBox> | I'm getting a strange error with mythmusi: "Decoder error: DecoderMAD: Failed to open input. Error 5" anyone have any idea what this means? |
| 00:30 | <mchou> | dmitry: try tuner=38 |
| 00:31 | <ShockValue> | cmorgan: whats the difference between hardware and software(?) decoding? im currenly using xine as the player for the dvd. |
| 00:31 | <mchou> | dmitry: like options tuner type=38 in modules.conf |
| 00:32 | <dmitry> | mchou: omg, looks like tuner=6 sorta worked! |
| 00:32 | <DJ_Rican> | cool... if i hit 'r' it starts recording and the view switches to delayed viewing... :) |
| 00:32 | <dmitry> | going to try 38 next |
| 00:32 | <mchou> | dmitry: I'm almost 100% certain 38 works.... |
| 00:33 | <dmitry> | trying 38 |
| 00:33 | <cmorgan> | ShockValue: framerate will differ greatly |
| 00:33 | <cmorgan> | ShockValue: not sure if it would cause issues like you are saying |
| 00:33 | <cmorgan> | someone here ought to know ;-) |
| 00:33 | <cmorgan> | night everyone |
| 00:33 | cmorgan | is now known as cmorgan_zzz |
| 00:34 | <ShockValue> | well., if playback from my computer is going to be inferior.. ill just use my normal dvd player.. i was just hoping to have an all in 1 solution |
| 00:34 | <mchou> | dmitry: check this out: http://www.ibrado.com/2002/08/12/ |
| 00:35 | <dmitry> | whoa, it's saying PAL/SECAM now. with 6 it was saying "Something NTSC" |
| 00:35 | <mchou> | dmitry: look for tuners.h on your system..... |
| 00:36 | <dmitry> | ok |
| 00:36 | <dmitry> | found it |
| 00:37 | <dmitry> | i was using this initially: #define TUNER_PHILIPS_NTSC 2 |
| 00:37 | <mchou> | dmitry: likely candidates for u: 6,8,17 |

| 00:39 | <mchou> | dmitry: best if u pull the card out, look for little sticker on tuner, will tell u exactly which tuner..... |
| 00:39 | <dmitry> | oh. |
| 00:39 | <dmitry> | saa3174 is not the tuner? |
| 00:40 | <mchou> | no, thats the video decoder.... |
| 00:41 | <mchou> | dmitry: copy all the part numbers from the "silver box" on the card.... |
| 00:42 | <mchou> | dmitry: actually, try 21 |
| 00:42 | <mchou> | too.... |
| 00:43 | <dmitry> | looks like it's 7133HL |
| 00:43 | <dmitry> | the box is coming back up |
| 00:44 | <mchou> | dmitry: try 39, 21, in that order..... |
| 00:45 | <mchou> | dmitry: the silver box didn't have a name on it like Philips, or LG? |
| 00:47 | <mchou> | dmitry: 7733HL looks like 21(look at comments in tuner.h, it says 773*1*) |
| 00:47 | <mchou> | I meant 773*2* |
| 00:48 | <dmitry> | looks like 39 is working though |
| 00:48 | <dmitry> | at least it's recognizing some channels :) |
| 00:49 | <dmitry> | i didn't realize that the tuner chip could be different. i thought saa7134 refers to the whole contraption uniquely. |
| 00:49 | <mchou> | dmitry: i'd try 21 next..... |
| 00:50 | <mchou> | dmitry, if 21 doesn't work, try 27..... |

| 00:54 | <mchou> | dmitry: also try 17 |
| 00:54 | <dmitry> | 39 was the answer :) |
| 00:54 | <dmitry> | thanks a lot mchou |
| 00:55 | <mchou> | dmitry: enjoy. I hope u like the picture quality..... |
| 00:58 | <dmitry> | it's acceptable :) |
| 00:58 | <dmitry> | now to get sound working. |
| 01:01 | <mchou> | dmitry: put this in ~/.xawtv: mixer=line1 (or aux or whatever) |
| 01:04 | <monkyBox> | Does anyone know anything about this error in mythmusic? "Decoder error: DecoderMAD: Failed to open input. Error 5" what does it mean? |
| 01:04 | <monkyBox> | ...and I can play mp3s with mdaplay just fine... |

| 01:11 | <dmitry> | i think it was about 70 canadian. |
| 01:11 | <mchou> | whats that, maybe $45 US? |
| 01:12 | <dmitry> | sounds about right |
| 01:13 | <mchou> | actually, I think it's closer to $55US |
| 01:13 | <mchou> | just checked... |
| 01:13 | <mchou> | did u get it from ncix? |

| 01:14 | <davatar> | I need to find the link posted to the mailing list to find it :) |
| 01:15 | <mchou> | u can get it from avermedia directly "clearance" for $80US. don't know if they ship to canada |
| 01:15 | <davatar> | wow.. is this on there website? |
| 01:15 | <mchou> | m179 are on closeout on avermedia web site |
| 01:16 | <dmitry> | ok, so to get the sound working i need to get the cable running from sound-out on the tvtuner to the line in on the sound card? |
| 01:19 | <mchou> | dmitry: that's one way. But I thought lifeview 3000 can do sound over pci bus...... |
| 01:22 | <dmitry> | it did that on my dad's winxp box. |
| 01:23 | <dmitry> | but mixer=line1 didn't do it |
| 01:23 | <dmitry> | in fact, i just plugged my headphones into the lineout port and there's nothing there. |

| 02:28 | <mchou> | in ~/.xawtv, mixer=/dev/mixer1:line1 |
| 02:29 | <mchou> | or maybe mixer=mixer1:line1 |

| 02:38 | <dmitry> | trying to use myth, because you can actually specify it in setup |
| 02:40 | <mchou> | dmitry: that mixer1:line1 is good only for recording, not output. If u want output u need to attach cable to sound card. But everything ought to be working now. |

| 05:07 | <dmitry> | interesting, no MUTE stuff this time |
| 05:08 | <mchou> | you got the program "radio?" |
| 05:09 | <dmitry> | im sure i can download it |
| 05:09 | <mchou> | I think it is part of xawtv/bttv. |
| 05:09 | <mchou> | you nned it for this hack. |

| 05:10 | <dmitry> | hmm,not installed as part of xawtv |
| 05:10 | <mchou> | get it from bytesex. |
| 05:10 | <mchou> | compile it, etc... |
| 05:11 | <mchou> | bett yet if ur distro has one already precompiled.... |
| 05:11 | <dmitry> | it should, but i can't find it :] |
| 05:12 | <mchou> | what distro. |
| 05:12 | <dmitry> | debian. |
| 05:12 | <mchou> | apt-get radio?? |
| 05:12 | <dmitry> | gah |
| 05:13 | <dmitry> | ok i've got it |
| 05:13 | <mchou> | if radio is installed, run it. See if you have sound if headphones are in tvcard. |
| 05:14 | <mchou> | static or otherwise. you may need to listen carefully, because volume might be low. |
| 05:15 | <mchou> | and u need to make sure mixer1 is fixed. I don't know what's going on there. |
| 05:17 | <mchou> | and if all this shit doesn't work, go buy yourself a pvr250. |
| 05:18 | <dmitry> | yeah im thinking about that. |
| 05:18 | <dmitry> | there might be a little bit of static there. |
| 05:18 | <dmitry> | i can't quite tell |
| 05:20 | <dmitry> | damn it. |
| 05:20 | <dmitry> | i think i might give up tonight, and try again in the morning. |
| 05:20 | <mchou> | aumix /dev/mixer1 |

| 05:21 | <mchou> | dmitry: the other thing u should try is v4lctl to unmute. |
| 05:22 | <mchou> | and mixer1 is still fubar. |
| 05:22 | <dmitry> | totaly. |
| 05:22 | <mchou> | I don't know what you did, but I think modules.conf must be screwed. |
| 05:23 | <dmitry> | yeah ill blow everything away tomorrow and retry. |
| 05:25 | <mchou> | dmitry: wait, I figured the problem..... |
| 05:25 | <dmitry> | oberon:~/xawtv-3.90# v4lctl -c /dev/video0 -v volume mute off |
| 05:25 | <dmitry> | no handler for mute |
| 05:25 | <mchou> | u got to do aumix -d /dev/mixer1 -q. Stoopid programmer.... |

| 05:26 | <mchou> | ok, that's better :) |
| 05:26 | <dmitry> | that's pretty bad command line parsing, heh. |
| 05:27 | <mchou> | ok, I think your golden..... |
| 05:27 | <mchou> | u got headphone in tvcard? |
| 05:27 | <dmitry> | yup |
| 05:28 | <mchou> | fireup xawtv |
| 05:28 | <dmitry> | k |
| 05:28 | <mchou> | any sound? |
| 05:29 | <dmitry> | nope |
| 05:29 | <mchou> | I don't have v4lctl, figure out how to unmute.... |
| 05:30 | <mchou> | with that |
| 05:30 | <dmitry> | well |
| 05:30 | <dmitry> | volume mute on | off |
| 05:30 | <dmitry> | mute / unmute audio. |
| 05:30 | <dmitry> | v4lctl [ options ] command |
| 05:30 | <mchou> | ok, so you are saying its not muted? |
| 05:30 | <dmitry> | i tried v4lctl -c /dev/video0 volume mute off |
| 05:33 | <mchou> | ok, one last parting thought; undo all my changes tomorrow, but try v4lctl again. Good night. |
| 05:33 | <dmitry> | goodnight. |
| 05:33 | <dmitry> | thanks a lot for your help |
| 05:34 | <mchou> | ok. didn't do much good :( |
| 05:34 | <dmitry> | at least i sorta know how ll this works now :) |
| 05:34 | <dmitry> | thanks so much.. i bet it's my fault somewhere in there. |
| 05:34 | <mchou> | nah..a lot of folks complain no sound w/ this card. |
| 05:35 | <mchou> | FV2000 seems better..... |
| 05:35 | <dmitry> | damn. |
| 05:35 | <dmitry> | my dad like the "stereo" part. |
| 05:35 | <dmitry> | anyway i need to go to sleep. i'll try again tomorrow... thanks a bunch. |
| 05:35 | <mchou> | well, I dont blame him. I was considering 3000 myself.... |
| 05:36 | <mchou> | night.... |
| 05:36 | <dmitry> | i'll let you know how it goes |
| 05:36 | <mchou> | ok, thx. |
| 05:40 | <sfr> | btw, i saw the Name Marco D'itri in the source before. He's on #debian-devel as Md right now. Not sure if he might have another idea. |
| 05:42 | <mchou> | he's not really the developer, he just submitted HW info :) Good suggestion, though. |
| 05:43 | <sfr> | heh, i just saw the name flying by |
| 05:43 | <mchou> | yeah, :) |
| 05:45 | <Sobek> | I have another question. I an getting a lot of prebuffering pasue messages in live tv. What if anything can I do to resolve this |
| 05:46 | <sfr> | reduce the capture resolution or get a faster network/computer |
| 05:47 | <Sobek> | Ok. It is a 1.6 Duron should this be fast enough? |
| 05:48 | <sfr> | i think so, but i don't use s/w encoding myself. |
| 05:50 | <Sobek> | From what I have read it sould be fast enough. What is the standard tv resolution? |
| 05:51 | <Sobek> | I also have a lot of noise in the audio in live tv and recordings. The sound from the ca[pture card is fine but the playback is really noise |
| 05:53 | <dmitry> | i think im one step away... gr.. |
| 05:54 | <dmitry> | Sobek: perhaps it's the compression you're using? |
| 05:55 | <Sobek> | I am using mpeg4 I think.. Is it the live tv profile that it uses for watching tv? |
| 05:56 | <dmitry> | i have no idea, im just guessing :) |
| 05:58 | <Sobek> | Thats cool.. Thanks |

| 09:04 | <rkulagow> | that's weird. anyone notice that the "live preview" in the watch recordings screen comes up no matter what is selected in setup? |
| 09:05 | <sfr> | yes, there are patches floating around on -dev iirc. |
| 09:05 | <rkulagow> | ah, still haven't caught up with all the messages yet... |
| 09:06 | <sfr> | simply skip -users ;) |
| 09:07 | <rkulagow> | but that's where some of my best spit-takes come from! |
| 09:07 | <rkulagow> | i'll go through ivtv-dev before going for -users though. |
| 09:17 | <rkulagow> | ah, i see that there was a commit already for the playbackbox preview recordings issue. that'll learn me. |
| 09:22 | <sfr> | there are still problems with the filter plugins due to changes in cvs. iirc they cause myth to segfault |
