| 00:10 | <Salec> | is there anything i need to specify for multihead? |
| 00:12 | <robbie> | google for xinerama |
| 00:13 | <robbie> | if you use an nvidia card with the drivers from nvidia then read the readme, its got everything |
| 00:13 | <robbie> | and the nvidia stuff installs some examples in doc |
| 00:13 | <Salec> | i have a voodoo3 in there right now |
| 00:13 | <Salec> | with a pvr 350 |
| 00:25 | warlord | is now known as warlord-afk |
| 00:34 | <Salec> | how do i specify a dual head display in X? |
| 00:34 | <Salec> | i have the config files setup |
| 00:35 | <Salec> | currently i just run startx |
| 00:35 | <Salec> | and it blanks out my tv screen and i get xfree on the monitor |
| 00:35 | <Salec> | can i then specify mythfrontend to run on the screen? |

| 02:38 | <Sembiance> | I'm thinking maybe I should hack up mythtv and add support for a 'time offset' on a per channel basis from system time. |
| 02:39 | <Sembiance> | This way if Comedy Central is 30 seconds faster than system time, and MSNBC is 10 seconds slower, I can input the correct settings so that MythTV will record on time. |

| 02:52 | <Sembiance> | Also I plan on hacking up mythtv so it will use mplayer to play back recorded TV shows and also play live feeds from PVR 250's. |
| 02:52 | <Sembiance> | because MythTV's own 'video player' SUCKS MAJOR |
| 02:59 | <Salec_> | how does it suck? |

| 03:04 | tattrdkat | is now known as virsys |
| 03:04 | <Sembiance> | Well MythTV deals with lots of different tuners. |
| 03:04 | <Sembiance> | Some need to be combined with sound input on sound cards. |
| 03:05 | <Sembiance> | So Myth has a lot of code to combine video and audio. |
| 03:05 | <Sembiance> | This is great for those people with those tuners. |
| 03:05 | <Sembiance> | But for those of us that use tuners built in this millennium (PVR250/350), they just output a raw MPEG stream including audio. |
| 03:06 | <Sembiance> | and I know that I get 10 times better performance using MythVideo and mplayer to play my recorded .nuv's than I do trying to use Myth to watch my recorded shows. |
| 03:07 | <Sembiance> | anyways. It won't be a problem once I hack up Myth to support ysing mplayer for everything. |
| 03:07 | <Salec_> | let me know when you do :) |
| 03:07 | <Salec_> | i know with dd i get 1% cpu viewing livetv |
| 03:07 | <Salec_> | with my nice pvr 350 |
| 03:10 | <Salec_> | i'm having problems with mythtv and it though |
| 03:10 | <Sembiance> | Yah, MythTV is major OVERKILL for the Pvr250 cards. All I want myth to do is 'cat /dev/video0 > videofile.mpg' at the right times :) |
| 03:10 | <Salec_> | it displays a black screen when viewing livetv :( |
| 03:10 | <Sembiance> | And use 'mplayer /dev/video0' for playing tv ;) |
| 03:10 | <Salec_> | hehe yea! |
| 03:10 | <Sembiance> | salec: you can use mplayer to play live tv, pause, etc. |
| 03:10 | <Salec_> | really? |
| 03:11 | <Salec_> | mplayer runs in x right? |
| 03:11 | <Sembiance> | yup. just need to instruct mplayer not to cache |
| 03:11 | <Salec_> | sweet |
| 03:11 | <Sembiance> | mplayer runs in everything including x. there is also a framebuffer version and sdl version and more |
| 03:11 | <Salec_> | i just want something that will use the ivtv's framebuffer |
| 03:12 | <Sembiance> | sigh, I really should write my 'WinTV PVR250/PVR350 ONLY' MythTV competition some day ;) |
| 03:12 | <Salec_> | and have an onscreen program guide etc. :) |
| 03:12 | <Sembiance> | ahh, see I use MythWeb for everything |
| 03:12 | <Sembiance> | with 4 tv tuner cards, I set it up to record all sorts of things I want to watch |
| 03:12 | <Salec_> | lol |
| 03:12 | <Sembiance> | then I casually watch them when I get around to it |
| 03:12 | <Salec_> | i can't imagine it being so hard to simply write a program |
| 03:13 | <Salec_> | that snags the mpeg from ivtv |
| 03:13 | <Salec_> | and adds a layer on top |
| 03:13 | <Salec_> | i need to toy with the fb alpha handling |
| 03:13 | <Sembiance> | hehe, it's not hard at all |
| 03:13 | <Salec_> | perhaps you could play the mpeg directly and just do all the extra drawing on the fb |
| 03:13 | <Salec_> | say the program guide etc. |
| 03:13 | <Sembiance> | fopen("/dev/video0", "r") |
| 03:14 | <Sembiance> | rofl |
| 03:14 | <Salec_> | hehe |
| 03:14 | <Sembiance> | You could use libsdl for the drawing, in a fullscreen transparent x-window |
| 03:14 | <Sembiance> | or something else ;) |
| 03:14 | <Sembiance> | heh, don't have much experience with x-windows programming |
| 03:14 | <Salec_> | i'm a windows game developer |
| 03:14 | <Salec_> | so i have no experience |
| 03:15 | <Salec_> | but i'm a very fast learner |
| 03:15 | <Salec_> | would it be possible to write directly to the framebuffer? |
| 03:15 | <Salec_> | that way i don't need to deal with X |
| 03:16 | <Sembiance> | well maybe you want to look at libSDL? It gives you direct access to the screen. And it runs in X or in framebuffer mode, and other stuff too. |
| 03:16 | <Sembiance> | I even thought about using Mozilla and XUL to make a mythtv type program |
| 03:16 | <Sembiance> | using webpages, javascript |
| 03:16 | <Salec_> | that would be slow |
| 03:16 | <Salec_> | you want fast ass performance :) |
| 03:16 | <Sembiance> | heh |
| 03:17 | * | Sembiance wishes he had like 6 months off from work where he could devote to making a Mythkiller. |
| 03:17 | <Salec_> | haha |
| 03:17 | <Sembiance> | of course mine would only work with the PVR250/350 cards |
| 03:17 | <Salec_> | i'm stuck writing a gamebryo game :( |
| 03:17 | <Sembiance> | I don't care about all the rest |
| 03:17 | <Salec_> | that's OK! |
| 03:17 | <Salec_> | :) |
| 03:17 | <Salec_> | fuck the rest man |
| 03:17 | <Salec_> | :D |
| 03:17 | <Sembiance> | hehe |
| 03:17 | <Salec_> | easy fix |
| 03:17 | <Salec_> | write an external program that takes the rest |
| 03:18 | <Sembiance> | I spend most of my days writing tcp/ip socket server daemons and web pages for work |
| 03:18 | <Salec_> | and encodes an mpeg stream |
| 03:18 | * | Sembiance is very tired and is going to bed. |

| 03:29 | <marc> | morning |
| 03:29 | <marc> | yes |
| 03:30 | <Salec_> | can you get myth tv to work with it? |
| 03:31 | <marc> | just watching live tv :-) |
| 03:31 | <Salec_> | with mythtv? |
| 03:32 | <Salec_> | when i load up mythtv in X on the ivtv-fb |
| 03:32 | <Salec_> | and i go to watch live tv |
| 03:32 | <Salec_> | the screen goes black and i just hear audio |
| 03:32 | <marc> | mmmh |
| 03:32 | <Salec_> | however if i manually set the transparencies using ivtvfbctl and use dd i can watch tv |
| 03:32 | <Salec_> | but i don't see anything on X |
| 03:33 | <marc> | I'm not an expert - but it looks like something wrong with the localalpha/globalalpha settings |
| 03:33 | <Salec_> | anyidea where i can change those? |
| 03:34 | <marc> | can you play with ivtvfbctl while watching - and see if you can get a picture? |
| 03:34 | <marc> | sometimes myth gets it wrong for me, too. typically when switching channels and pressing the info button and the menu button all at the same time |

| 11:46 | <StuartL> | That's the mythfe user. |
| 11:47 | <hardwired> | just run the command startx as that user, you should get a very basic x, two xterms and some sort of clock |

| 12:02 | <StuartL> | This is going to get interesting... |
| 12:02 | <StuartL> | Erm, don't have a working keyboard. |
| 12:02 | <StuartL> | That's not good. |
| 12:03 | <StuartL> | TTY switching doesn't work and num lock isn't responding. |
| 12:03 | <hardwired> | no, you need it to set up myth. you can ditch it after everything works though |
| 12:03 | <Chutt> | rkulagow, could try increasing the timeout amount |
| 12:03 | <hardwired> | StuartL: just a guess, did you use ctrl-alt-f1 or so to switch? |
| 12:03 | <StuartL> | Ok, I have no keyboard and no mouse. |
| 12:04 | <StuartL> | hardwired: I tried that, yeah. |
| 12:04 | * | StuartL tries control-alt-backspace |
| 12:04 | <hardwired> | StuartL: ah ok. just thought you tried alt-f1 only cause that's how one does it without x :) |
| 12:04 | <StuartL> | Nope, eevn that doesn't work. |
| 12:04 | <StuartL> | :) |
| 12:04 | <StuartL> | I dunno whether X has crashed or whether it's just the keyboard interface. |

| 12:06 | <StuartL> | I'll try a reboot with a PS/2 mouse installed, BRB. |
| 12:06 | <rkulagow> | chutt: i was thinking of that. the master backend is a p3-733 with gobs of ram. it's curious that something "lately" has pushed it over the edge. returning from watching a recording back to the "watch recordings" screen can take >20 seconds. i hate not knowing why something is happening... |

| 14:47 | <rkulagow> | but i still have to keep cleaning mouse shit, so bbl. |
| 14:47 | * | kvandivo cackles. |
| 14:48 | <mikegrb> | Hymie: you know this is a development channel, not user support? |
| 14:48 | <rkulagow> | logging is off AFAIK. |
| 14:49 | <Hymie> | mikegrb: no, since it doesn't say -dev anywhere, I didn't know that ;) Anyhow, myself, another user, and someone on the mailing list seem to be having this problem. ngrep shows that I'm communicating with imdb.com fine, but that mythtv isn't parsing things. I suppose I could take my question to the ml, but even if this is a dev channel, perhaps this be relevant info? |
| 14:49 | <Hymie> | mikegrb: if not, I'll plaster the ML with "help me" requests ;) |
| 14:49 | + | marc [~Marc@195.218.18.103] joined #mythtv |
| 14:49 | <mikegrb> | mailing list, and many people delete messages with subjects like "help me" |
| 14:50 | <mikegrb> | you'll not that rkulagow and kvandivo there working on a problem are talking about determining the exact problem so they can fix it |
| 14:50 | <Hymie> | mikegrb: heh, I said "help me" requests, not "help me" subjects ;Þ |
| 14:51 | <Hymie> | mikegrb: oh, I see. You've never seen a person working on a problem, unless it is a dev channel, is that it? |
| 14:52 | <Hymie> | mikegrb: anyhow, I'll go bug the list |
| 14:53 | <chiphead> | rkulagow, yes I noticed a longer delay as well |
| 14:53 | - | Hymie [hymie@l8r.net] left #mythtv () |
| 14:55 | <rkulagow> | hrmm. time to diff CVS and at least 5 JAN CVS and see what's changed. mark rote has a p3-866, i've got a p3-733. chiphead: what do you have on the mysql box? |
| 14:55 | <chiphead> | p2-400 |
| 14:55 | <sfr> | rkulagow: what timeout have you been talking with Chutt about earlier? |
| 14:56 | <rkulagow> | sfr: the timeout i was getting was on the frontend after the QUERY_RECORDINGS Play. readstring would timeout, and the frontend would decide that the backend was gone, even though it wasn't. |
| 14:57 | <rkulagow> | i haven't actually checked any values in the code because i've been working in the garage, and the masterbackend is down now because i have to move it from where it was sitting before. |
| 14:58 | <sfr> | rkulagow: i'm also seeing frequent timeouts on the frontend. Selecting backend-related options (live-tv etc.) a 2nd time works usually |
| 14:58 | <rkulagow> | occasionally, the "watch recordings" _wouldn't_ timeout and i'd be able to start watching something. but there's an async update that happens, and so i might be watching and then i'd get a popup saying that it had lost the connection to the backend. anyway, others are seeing it, so that helps at least. i've got to go though... |
| 14:59 | <sfr> | rkulagow: sure |
| 15:00 | <chiphead> | rkulagow, I have also notices a longer delay after picking a recording to play and the start of the video. Prolly all related |
| 15:02 | = | dilate [~dilate@adsl-68-23-34-6.dsl.chcgil.ameritech.net] quit (Remote closed the connection) |
| 15:07 | <rkulagow> | ok, diffing to 6 days ago gives me 12000 lines, much of which is my docs. cutting that makes it 3600, a lot of which looks like a ffmpeg resync, so at least there's somewhere to start looking. |
| 15:10 | <godless> | anyone here from belgium ? |
| 15:10 | <rkulagow> | mythbackend/mainserver looks like it's had some interesting changes. might be the place to start looking... |
| 15:13 | <thor_> | the threadpool changes are just from yesterday ... don't know if your problem existed before that |
| 15:15 | <rkulagow> | thor: CVS as of last week was OK; i think it was yesterday that things went south. i am walking away from the keyboard now. must clean garage. bbl. |
| 15:15 | * | kvandivo is tentatively happy that he hasn't updated cvs since day before yesterday. |
| 15:15 | <rkulagow> | once i have time i'll start rolling back day by day and seeing where the change happened. unless someone else with the same problem beats me to it. |
| 15:16 | <rkulagow> | besides, i don't want chutt to yell at us for not even making an attempt to figure out what's wrong. he can be a big meanie in his cvs commit logs. |
| 15:17 | * | kvandivo throws back his head and cackles with insane glee. |
| 15:18 | <thor_> | heh |
| 15:20 | <thor_> | I would go back to early yesterday ... I still don't really understand that threadpool patch (and it's only a few lines), but I was having problems with some very similar code in the mfd |

| 15:58 | <faye> | yes |
| 15:58 | <Chutt> | rkulagow, i think i know what the issue is |
| 15:59 | <Chutt> | rkulagow, it was fixing the hammer icon for kvandivo =0 |
| 15:59 | <kvandivo> | geez.. glad _i_ didn't submit the patch for that... |
| 15:59 | <Chutt> | large mysql select |
| 15:59 | <Chutt> | slows things down |
| 16:01 | <faye> | Salec: having problems? |
| 16:01 | <Chutt> | i _think_ that's it, at least |
| 16:02 | <Salec> | a few transparency garble probs |
| 16:02 | <faye> | define garble? |

| 16:03 | <faye> | not seen that, you're using the right colour depth? |
| 16:04 | <Salec> | 32 |
| 16:04 | <Chutt> | you've got the wrong x w/h set |
| 16:04 | <Chutt> | or something to that effect |
| 16:11 | <Salec> | nope |
| 16:11 | <Salec> | i have it set for 720x480 |
| 16:12 | <faye> | the image is 720x576 (ie pal) |
| 16:13 | <Salec> | i'm in ntsc |

| 16:16 | <Salec> | yup |
| 16:17 | <faye> | and you didn't copy the pal config by mistake? |
| 16:20 | <Salec> | nope |
| 16:20 | <Salec> | using 720x480 |
| 16:20 | <Salec> | as soon as i call ivtvfbctl /dev/fb1 |
| 16:20 | <Salec> | my screen goes garbled |
| 16:21 | <mdz> | my mythtv box is now semi-operational again |
| 16:22 | <mdz> | 3 months worth of unstable upgrades over nfs root takes a while |
| 16:24 | <Chutt> | salec, how are you loading saa7127? |
| 16:24 | <Chutt> | and why the hell aren't you asking about ivtv questions in the ivtv channel? |
| 16:25 | <faye> | cos there's no ivtv channel? |
| 16:25 | <Chutt> | of course there is. |
| 16:25 | <Chutt> | it's even fairly active |
| 16:25 | <faye> | on this server? |
| 16:26 | <faye> | cos on this net, I'm the only one there |
| 16:26 | <Chutt> | #ivtv-dev |
| 16:27 | <faye> | that'll be why then |
| 16:27 | <kvandivo> | he's talking as much or more there than he is here, chutt |
| 16:27 | <Chutt> | maybe i should enforce that |
| 16:27 | <Chutt> | boot to the head |
| 16:27 | <kvandivo> | just autokick anyone that mentions 'ivtv' in their msg. :) |
| 16:28 | <thor_> | my PVR-250 just wet the bed |
| 16:28 | <kvandivo> | did you name your dog 'my PVR-250' or something? |
| 16:28 | <Salec> | come here pvr250 here boy here |
| 16:29 | <thor_> | and someone named the cat Disonsphere |
| 16:29 | <thor_> | bah |
| 16:30 | <sfr> | next time get a grown-up pvr. my pvr350 has never done that. |
| 16:31 | <faye> | as long as I don't use the PVR350 for recording, X and Playback it's fine. the DVB-T card works great too |
| 16:35 | <MythMicha> | Couple small issues here.... :^( When I boot up my MythBox, I have it set up where the MYTH side of things should be displayed on the TV and the KDE side of things should be on the monitor.. But I get Myth on BOTH... I do have the ' export DISPLAY=:0.1' in mythtv user's .bashrc |
| 16:38 | <Salec> | MythMicha: rather than set up your X screen to be one display (ie having Screen "blah" LeftOf "blah 2" etc) |
| 16:38 | <Salec> | set up x to just have multiple screens that are not relative to each other |
| 16:38 | <Salec> | then just before executing mythfrontend do export DISPLAY=:0.1 (or whatever # your tv is on) |
| 16:39 | <MythMicha> | Salec Can I MSG you my XF86Config?? I thought that is how I had it set up... |
| 16:40 | <MythMicha> | Salec yea that's where I run into issues.. Since my mythfrontend is run from the KDE/Autostart, where exactly do I need to stick that export?? |

| 16:52 | <mdz> | sfr: care to send what you have to the list? I'm interested |
| 16:52 | <Netslayer> | is it possible to associate a button in .lircrc to run a script? it should be possible, any ideas? |
| 16:52 | <mdz> | I'd like to parse .pls files as well, to have metadata for http streams |
| 16:53 | <MythMicha> | OK I got fluxbox.. Is there anything I need to know about FluxBox as it pertains to MythTV that would not be in the Fluxbox Docs?? |
| 16:53 | <knight-> | sfr, tell me about your streaming patch |
| 16:53 | <Netslayer> | not really |
| 16:54 | <knight-> | MythMicha, fluxbox has nothing to do with MythTV |
| 16:54 | <MythMicha> | OK kewl.... Thanx :) |
| 16:59 | <sfr> | mdz: it's not really working atm. i duplicated code to handle http requests and kinda stopped in the middle of a rewrite before christmas. i just adapted it a little to latest cvs, so i could send you a patch. don't except a masterpiece though ;) |
| 17:01 | <sfr> | knight-: the first posted patch doesn't do much. it just knows how to connect to a shoutcast stream (mp3) directly. |
