11:29	<gbee>	no idea if it's currently working or not
11:30	<gbee>	using xmltv data to populate the channels table is somewhat redundant with analogue and digital scanning implemented
11:30	<gbee>	doesn't have the necessary info for tuning anyway

11:54	<Dibblah>	gbee: Yeah, that's what I've just been discussing on -users.
11:55	<Dibblah>	I'm wondering if it's worth adding code into mythfilldatabase to only fill rows in the channel table that have xmltvids.
11:55	<Dibblah>	The rest get added to newchannels or something similar.
11:55	<Dibblah>	Hmmm. Actually, that's unnecessarily complex.
11:56	<Dibblah>	A toggle in the guide that allows you to see channels that _don't_ have an xmltvid.
11:56	<Dibblah>	Then an edit function for channels.
11:56	<Dibblah>	(Extending the E in liveTV idea)
11:57	<Dibblah>	Of course, not for datadirect sources.
12:11	\|-\|	Defend changed nick to defend
12:12	<gbee>	Dibblah: users shouldn't be including channels in their xmltv configs unless they exist in the db, it's a waste of bandwidth and processing power
12:14	<gbee>	we've already got the 'visible' toggle - don't need another
12:15	<Dibblah>	Okay... But how does the user initially set it up?
12:16	<gbee>	when you add a new grabber you are prompted to select which channels you want guide data for
12:16	<Dibblah>	Punishing them by just adding them all as untunable channels seems unnecessarily cruel :)
12:17	<Dibblah>	gbee: hard to use in it's current incarnation.
12:17	<gbee>	for some people that seems to be too much effort, so they just add the entire list
12:17	<Dibblah>	Well, it IS too much effort ;)
12:17	<gbee>	Dibblah: hard, but not really impossible
12:18	<Dibblah>	I'm trying to figure out if it's possible to lower this barrier to entry a bit.
12:18	<gbee>	one of my xmltv changes will be to include support for the xmltv config api - which makes things prettier
12:18	<Dibblah>	The grabber config file isn't a standard format over all grabbers, is it?
12:19	<Dibblah>	Yeah, which no grabbers support currently? ;)
12:20	<gbee>	a couple do - but I can get the xmltv devs to push it along on their end
12:20	<gbee>	tbh I'm not sure whether the config file is standard, the content obviously isn't as each grabber has it's own config requirements
12:21	<gbee>	and it seems that the channel identifiers used in the config aren't always the xmltvids (would make things easier if they were)
12:23	<gbee>	I'm reluctant to let users add hundreds of channels to their xmltv config which they don't need - puts unnecessary strain on the source websites and they'll probably retaliate by blocking us
12:23	<Dibblah>	So don't make it too easy?...

12:25	<Dibblah>	I'm trying to think of a UI where having the grabber configurable through API is easy to use and failing.
12:26	<Dibblah>	The only configuration for things like tv_grab_uk_rt is the list of channels, in xmltv form.
12:26	<gbee>	probably won't be any easier than the current configuration, but at least it won't require the user to alt-tab to switch to the terminal
12:28	<Dibblah>	Argh. --list-channels is not in baseline.
12:29	<gbee>	it's messy, no question about that and ideas for simplfying it would be appreciated
12:29	<gbee>	nope, it's in apiconfig
12:30	<gbee>	3 grabbers currently support apiconfig
12:30	<Dibblah>	Well, I can do tv_grab_uk_rt, I think.
12:30	<Dibblah>	However, it doesn't help, still.
12:32	<Dibblah>	Okay. Whatever. Is the current implementation, in your opinion, of populating untunable channels wrong?
12:32	<Dibblah>	It may be useful for people going through an STB...
12:32	<minra>	cheers to open source... keep making things better. dont despair

12:34	<Dibblah>	I hate settings.
12:34	<gbee>	so do I
12:34	<gbee>	maybe we can look at the card/source type and make decisions based on that

14:39	<janneg>	j-rod: second problem is that they have only decoders. but we need encoders too for transcode and framgrabber support
14:41	<j-rod>	janneg: yeah, I was thinking of a slightly limited scope, where all incoming video is mpeg2 (either via hdtv capture card or hw mpeg2 encoder)

15:14	<stuarta>	it would help if we needed to valgrind the frontend.

15:21	<Chutt>	i may be having to travel out to chicago tomorrow

15:21	<Chutt>	silly last minute travel stuff sucks
15:22	<stuarta>	would it be difficult to implement, i'm suspecting it wouldn't be that bad if the code's already there
15:22	<Chutt>	naw, wouldn't be that hard
15:22	<Chutt>	just have to add a new thing to select it, really.
15:22	<jams>	thankfully the chicago snow should be gone by tonight

15:34	<xris>	stuarta: just curious, but what'd be the point?
15:35	<stuarta>	purely debugging
15:35	<Dibblah>	Sheesh. Out of the 7 major distros, 1 is shipping QT4 out of the box. Hurry up, people :)
15:36	<janneg>	which one? gentoo?
15:36	<janneg>	It will get better when kde4 is out
15:36	<Dibblah>	Of course. Let your users lead the charge into the unknown.
15:37	<Tuomaz>	What needs to be done to support qt4? (Complete rewrite?!)
15:37	<Chutt>	yes, essentially.
15:37	<Tuomaz>	oh
15:37	<Dibblah>	Started?
15:37	<Dibblah>	;)
15:38	<Chutt>	i looked into it
15:38	<gbee>	a fine tooth comb, a QT4 manual and a copy of the code
15:38	<Chutt>	all of mythwidgets.cpp has to go.
15:38	<Chutt>	which means all the popup dialogs, all the settings code, mythtv-setup
15:38	<Tuomaz>	Will MythTV gain something with QT4? Eyecandy, simpler code?
15:38	<Chutt>	we're using internal interfaces that no longer exist in qt4 for most of that stuff.
15:38	<Dibblah>	Still not time to look at it, though?
15:39	<Dibblah>	Tuomaz: Windows, hopefully, will be less painful.
15:39	<Dibblah>	Okay. A _little_ less painful.
15:39	<Chutt>	much easier windows port. a bunch of stuff will become simpler (threaded stuff is better in qt4)
15:43	<Tuomaz>	I'm not a MythTV dev, but I looked a litte at the code. I saw alot of mysql code with qt-(bindings/names). Does qt3 has some sort of mysql-bindings?
15:43	<Chutt>	err, yes?
15:44	<Tuomaz>	Ok, are those simplier to use than some native mysql-bindings?
15:44	<Chutt>	yes?
15:44	<Tuomaz>	ok
15:45	<stuarta>	theoretically allows you to abstract away the database you are talking to
15:45	<Tuomaz>	Ok, sounds nice.
15:45	<stuarta>	it's better for consistency to use the toolkit

16:27	<jams>	gbee thats a very good bet
16:28	<CDev>	Can a class be derived from 2 classes, 1 being QObject and still work correctly with Contect->addListener()?
16:28	[~]	stuarta nominates juski as "cool theme developer"
16:28	<CDev>	i.e. class A : public QObject, public B ....
16:29	<CDev>	I seem to segfault on the call to addListener.
16:29	<xris>	stuarta: yes.
16:30	<stuarta>	AFAIK, multiple inheritance doesn't play well with QT unless all the parent classes are QT
16:30	<stuarta>	i may however be completely wrong
16:30	<stuarta>	xris: :) i'm still using ProjectGrahem...
16:31	<gbee>	think a demo theme, using all the possible elements would be good, might inspire theme authors to try something different ;)
16:31	<CDev>	stuarta: Thanks, I'll try to make class B in the example above also inherit from QObject and see if that helps
16:31	<stuarta>	CDev: i'd have a search of the trolltech site for more info....
16:32	<janneg>	CDev: no, that won't work. http://www.cuymedia.net/doxygen-dev-docs/html/group__qobject__dangers.html
16:32	<CDev>	Already been looking,
16:32	<Chutt>	CDev, hey, playback on the dsm-320 is so-so
16:32	<CDev>	Chutt: Wireless... right?
16:32	<Chutt>	it seems to get stuck in a stuttery loop for 30 seconds at a time, generally 2 or 3 times an hour
16:32	<Chutt>	yes
16:33	<stuarta>	knew I should have stopped after "doesn't play well with qt"
16:33	<CDev>	Any common place in the stream? or when switching shows?
16:33	<Chutt>	randomly in a show
16:34	<Chutt>	doesn't repro in the same place when playing it again
16:34	<cld2>	I hate to be "that guy" but can anyone explain this to me, Im trying to switch from media center to mythtv, I am a unix/linux server admin by trade so Ive got some idea of whats going on, but X gui stuff is not my strong point... so the questions is, in media center all my colors look right/good in mythtv my reds and orange seem bleed together and when things move fast there is a rather obvious "shadow" I have an amd 1.8 ghz and a hauppag
16:34	<stuarta>	damn, i need to find some time to sort out the overcorrection in the a/v sync code....
16:34	<CDev>	It maybe when the backend is sending out notifications. !?
16:35	<Chutt>	CDev, dunno =)
16:35	<CDev>	I believe the default is every 1800 seconds.
16:35	<Chutt>	hum
16:35	<Chutt>	possibly
16:36	<Chutt>	i think it was happening more often than that, though
16:36	<CDev>	I can't remember if the DSM-320 requests the stream as one big file, or many smaller chunks (I think it's many small...)
16:37	<CDev>	If it is many small, then it may be getting interrupted responding to other devices asking about it.
16:38	<CDev>	Trying to think of the best way to figure out what's happening... drawing a blank.
16:39	<CDev>	Are you using the search feature of the 320?
16:39	<CDev>	(where you enter the time)
