| 00:00 | <cmorgan> | Chutt: i was going to add if(bitrate>maxbitrate) bitrate = maxbitrate; to avoid giving the driver invalid parameters |
| 00:00 | <mdz> | heh, there sure are a lot of places to change to add a column to the channel table |
| 00:00 | <cmorgan> | additional error checking is something else we should be doing |

| 00:10 | <Chutt> | can't load the file, death |
| 00:10 | <mdz> | missing attribute on an xml element, kill the program |
| 00:10 | <Chutt> | probably |
| 00:10 | <Chutt> | though, it means that it's an invalid theme file |
| 00:11 | <mdz> | there are 86 of those tests |
| 00:11 | <thor_> | most of the modules are willing to live with things that are supposed to be in the theme but aren't |
| 00:12 | <thor_> | (not all, but many) |
| 00:16 | <thor_> | heh, g++ really dislikes stray ]'s in header files |
| 00:18 | <mdz> | gcc's whole behaviour of continuing after an error is questionable in my opinion |

| 00:25 | <Chutt> | david engel wanted me to ask you about your cvs tree and if you wanted to keep hosting it at sf :p |
| 00:25 | <tmk> | yeah i do |
| 00:25 | <tmk> | looks like it's stuck in select/sleep/ioctl |
| 00:26 | <tmk> | when it refuses to playback |
| 00:26 | <tmk> | loops |
| 00:26 | <Chutt> | heh |
| 00:26 | <Chutt> | where in the code? |
| 00:26 | <Chutt> | he was just worried about keeping stuff current, since anon cvs is a little behind your stuff |
| 00:27 | <tmk> | i update cvs-latest when important |
| 00:29 | <Chutt> | ya ya |
| 00:30 | <Chutt> | just wanted to ask, that's all |
| 00:43 | <FryGuy> | chutt: should I have carried over the deadlock stuff i wrote to MpegRecorder too? I didn't really look into those too much because I didn't think they would have the same kind of problems. |

| 01:22 | <aceat64> | can someone tell me what the difference is between the Gentoo packages MythTV and mythfrontend? |
| 01:24 | <ahbritto> | aceat64: mythfrontend removes some files after building: like mythsetup , if you are not recording on the machine, you can use mythfrontend |
| 01:25 | <aceat64> | so if I am recording all I need is MythTV? |
| 01:25 | <ahbritto> | yes |

| 01:42 | <mdz> | I noticed recently that <cfoo> is sometimes different from <foo.h> and have started using those more often |
| 01:43 | <Chutt> | eh, not really |
| 01:46 | <Chutt> | don't care one way or the other, aside that more people would be used to seeing the traditional includes |
| 01:51 | <mdz> | for instance, <cmath> declares overloaded versions of stuff for float vs. double so you don't need to worry about fabs vs. abs, etc. |
| 01:55 | <Chutt> | ah |
| 01:55 | <Chutt> | fuckin hell |
| 01:55 | <Chutt> | it was the win32 patch |
| 01:56 | <Chutt> | the guy didn't change all the videooutput classes |
| 01:56 | <mdz> | there's a win32 patch? |
| 01:56 | <Chutt> | well, cygwin |
| 01:57 | <Chutt> | i applied all the little things from it |
| 01:57 | <mdz> | even so, I didn't realize |
| 01:57 | <mdz> | what parts does it actually build? |
| 01:57 | <Chutt> | left out a few bits |
| 01:57 | <Chutt> | the frontend |
| 01:57 | <mdz> | does it have a video output class that works? |
| 01:57 | <mdz> | and audio? |
| 01:58 | <Chutt> | supposedly |
| 01:58 | <Chutt> | patch was on the -dev list today |
| 01:59 | <Chutt> | i haven't done a commit yet, though |

| 14:58 | <Chutt> | heh |
| 14:58 | <lmatter> | I'm using GAR to build it all from scratch. I'm using Ivor's open source MPEG driver now. Works nicely. |
| 14:58 | <Chutt> | that's cool. |
| 14:59 | <lmatter> | Stupid question if I may. You mentioned on mythtv-users that the nvideo RENDER accel option helps with alpha blending. |
| 14:59 | <lmatter> | Is there an equiv for CLE266? Is it just DRI? |
| 14:59 | <Chutt> | not that i'm aware of |
| 15:00 | <Chutt> | Qt uses the render extension to alpha blend pixmaps together, like in most of the mythtv UI |
| 15:00 | <Chutt> | the software blending is pretty damn slow, so unless the driver does some hardware render accel... |
| 15:01 | <lmatter> | ok thanks. |

| 15:52 | <bdale> | another question... I'd like to optimally drive my 16x9 720p display, *and* get a 4x3 NTSC output to drive the modulator feeding other TVs around the house. Possible to do in a single frontend box showing the same program on both outputs simultaneously, or does this sound like a clear case of wanting a second frontend to get it all to work? |

| 16:16 | <steelep> | bdale, I'd use 2 frontends to drive one at 4x3 and another at 16x9 |
| 16:18 | <steelep> | you could of course retransmit the 16x9, but what if you have 4x3 inside 16x9, then you retransmit that into 4x3, yuk. |

| 16:22 | <steelep> | http://www.cyber-fish.com/mythtv/ |
| 16:28 | <steelep> | you can do a software hack to avoid modchips |
| 16:30 | <bdale> | steelep: yeah, pretty much what I figured. I've got lots of hardware to choose from, no worries there. Just realized late last night that if I cut the video on the main frontend over to optimally drive my uber-cool new widescreen in the living room, that I'm going to lose the NTSC feed for the modulator, and that will annoy the family. It's always something... |

This may be the wrong channel, but I was looking for information on controlling a directv box via linux IR for automatic recording via a tv-in card, for time-shifting purposes. Is there anything turnkey, or maybe some documentation that would get me started? |
| 17:56 | <kvandivo> | that it's a really important line |

| 17:58 | <hadees> | with lirc yes |
| 17:58 | <hadees> | you need to buy/make an IR reciver |

| 18:02 | <hadees> | kvandivo: you don't but usally don't you want to put the trans next to the directtv box in this case |
| 18:02 | <hadees> | you need to learn about mythtv |
| 18:02 | <kvandivo> | ya.. i need to install that at some point.. |

| 18:04 | <hadees> | for recording tv that is |
| 18:04 | <queuetue> | hadees: Definitely hardwar encoding - the box is relatively weak. |
| 18:04 | <kvandivo> | wise choice |
| 18:04 | <hadees> | then you need more HD space |
| 18:04 | <hadees> | and you need a hardware card |

| 18:05 | <hadees> | i got mine for $50 on ebay |
| 18:05 | <queuetue> | Yup, froogle return 80 bucks at newegg. :) |
| 18:05 | <pahli_bar> | hadees: yeah. but its not available anymore there |
| 18:05 | <hadees> | queutue: just a heads up, they have just been added to the ivtv driver (the driver used for mpeg 2 tv recorders) |
| 18:06 | <hadees> | so if you can afford it i would spend the extra money for a pvr250 |
| 18:06 | <hadees> | but thats just me |

| 18:07 | <hadees> | well i don't know if it is true or not (because i haven't gotten it working yet) but the m179 are supposed to be alittle less quality |
| 18:07 | <pahli_bar> | some guy on the user ML said that there's no difference in quality between the two |
| 18:07 | <queuetue> | Yeah, it's 100 bucks at newegg (OEM version, but I can't use the softwar anyway) |
| 18:08 | <kvandivo> | i've got both.. haven't played with the 179 much yet, but haven't noticed any quality differences myself |
| 18:08 | <queuetue> | Oh, wait. refurb. |
| 18:08 | <pahli_bar> | heh |
| 18:08 | <hadees> | well also you end up using the pvr250 firmware on the m179 so hopfully there won't be future problems with that |
| 18:09 | <pahli_bar> | hadees: the chipset is the same. so firmware shouldn't matter |
| 18:09 | <hadees> | i thought the chipsets were just similar not the same |

| 18:10 | <queuetue> | For 60 bucks, I think I'll chance the m179 - I'm not really that into quality issues. :) |
| 18:11 | <kvandivo> | i think you still have to patch ivtv to get m179.. so be prepared for an ever so slightly higher level of general linux awareness that will be needed |
| 18:11 | <kvandivo> | last i heard tmk hadn't merged 179 in yet |
| 18:11 | <kvandivo> | anyone that wants to can correct me, though |
| 18:12 | <hadees> | nope m179 still needs to be patched |
| 18:12 | <queuetue> | So, an m179, a big-old HD, and an irman? (is an irman a tranciever, or just a reciever?) |
| 18:12 | <hadees> | reciever |
| 18:12 | <hadees> | go to lirc.org |
| 18:12 | <hadees> | they have a better list of that stuff |

| 18:13 | <kvandivo> | (and you can never have too big of a hard drive.. i'm currently at 280 gigs and am seriously thinking about grabbing one of those 200 giggers next time they have them for $100).. |
| 18:13 | <pahli_bar> | there is prepatched ivtv at the ivtv wiki website |
| 18:13 | <sfr> | $100 for 200gigs? live is not fair :( |
| 18:14 | <kvandivo> | i don't buy HD space anymore for more that 50 cents a gig.. |
| 18:14 | <queuetue> | Wait ... Can I use the IR reciever on the hauppage card? So all I need is a transmitter in addition to a pvr250? Does the m179 have a reciever? |
| 18:14 | <kvandivo> | the problem i've had lately is finding drives large enough to make it worth the time (running into IDE bus limits, etc) |
| 18:15 | <queuetue> | Should I ask this in #lirc? :) |
| 18:15 | <queuetue> | No one in #lirc... |
| 18:15 | <pahli_bar> | m179 don't have a receiver |

| 19:17 | <hadees> | do i need to enable Xv somewhere? |
| 19:17 | <hadees> | or use XvMC instead since it is a Nvidia card |
