[00:00:15] sphery: bcgrown: your profile groups are corrupt, you should reset them as above
[00:01:17] bcgrown: how's it corrupt? i didn't change it. unless the settings are retained in the database and got jumbled
[00:01:27] sphery: just trust me, it's corrupt
[00:01:31] sphery: how is unimportant
[00:01:46] sphery: it's a long story and not worth retelling :)
[00:01:59] sphery: I will say it's not your fault, though
[00:02:00] npm (npm!~npm@cpe-76-169-12-237.socal.res.rr.com) has quit (Quit: Leaving.)
[00:02:06] bcgrown: haha
[00:02:25] bcgrown: is there still an equivalent of the crop filter? it didn't seem to work when i tried
[00:02:39] bcgrown: sometimes i get a couple pixels of garbage on the edge of my frame
[00:02:49] bcgrown: s/pixels/lines
[00:02:57] sphery: don't know if that works with vdpau
[00:03:04] iamlindoro: rather than using a crop filter, just overscan playback by 1 or 2 percent
[00:03:16] iamlindoro: that will work with all decoders, be less costly, and fill your screen
[00:03:31] bcgrown: ah
[00:03:34] bcgrown: yeah
[00:04:26] bcgrown: except for the auto-zoom doesn't work because of those lines. i.e. when a program is broadcast letterboxed
[00:04:40] iamlindoro: auto-zoom doesn't work with VDPAU at all
[00:04:53] bcgrown: that explains why it hasn't been working...
[00:04:57] bcgrown: :(
[00:07:44] dougt: what happened to the custom filters for vdpau in the front end? Have the moved from Setup -> TV Settings -> Playback
[00:07:58] bcgrown: no they're still there
[00:08:00] iamlindoro: nope, still same place they've always been
[00:08:17] wagnerrp: do custom filters even work in vdpau?
[00:08:23] iamlindoro: the vdpau ones do
[00:08:27] wagnerrp: oh
[00:08:29] iamlindoro: ie, the filters prefixed with "vdpau"
[00:08:37] iamlindoro: but only those
[00:09:09] iamlindoro: in theory you could do software decode and vdpau render, but that would defeat the purpose for most people
[00:09:29] bcgrown: too bad. i was excited to watch inverted hockey
[00:09:29] dougt: i don't see it. I am using svn truck.
[00:09:45] iamlindoro: you should switch from truck to trunk, I bet it's there ;)

[00:10:02] dougt: heh.
[00:10:06] dougt: yeah, i am on trunk. ;-)
[00:10:17] iamlindoro: Second page when editing a playback profile, nothing has moved in years
[00:10:23] iamlindoro: filters are still set there
[00:10:54] bcgrown: dougt: s/on t/d ?
[00:15:56] bcgrown: is Picture-Beside-Picture gone in 0.23, or maybe just in VDPAU?
[00:20:01] wagnerrp: which one of the ubuntu guys wrote their theme?
[00:20:29] iamlindoro: gbutters,
[00:20:33] iamlindoro: minus the comma
[00:20:42] iamlindoro: I already prompted him on the ticket in -theming, though
[00:21:14] wagnerrp: ah, so you have... was wondering why an hour later you hadnt yet closed it
[00:22:55] bcgrown is now known as bcgrown-afk
[00:23:49] iamlindoro: bcgrown-afk, PBP is not supported by VDPAU, but is still invoked the same way as ever
[00:24:02] iamlindoro: (by hitting the TOGGLEPBP binding)

[00:32:24] bcgrown-afk: it doesn't show up in my menu. would it just use software rendering then if started it with the TOGGLEPBP binding
[00:32:27] bcgrown-afk: ?
[00:32:51] bcgrown-afk: not that PBP or PIP are much use, they're just fun to show off sometimes
[00:33:32] iamlindoro: It doesn't show up in the menu
[00:33:38] iamlindoro: it's invoked through the binding
[00:33:52] iamlindoro: and you need to be using softwware decode and display to use it
[00:33:54] iamlindoro: meaning not VDPAU
[00:34:02] bcgrown-afk: ah
[00:34:22] bcgrown-afk: it used to show up in the menu... 0.22+sw rendering
[00:34:53] iamlindoro: so use software rendering
[00:35:10] bcgrown-afk: you overestimate the amount that i care about pip/pbp :)
[00:35:41] sulx: how come PiP works in my 0.23 setup with vdpau?
[00:35:51] bcgrown-afk: sulx: pip does, pbp doesn't
[00:35:55] sulx: or is pbp different thing
[00:35:59] wagnerrp: eek! hes typing telekinetically!
[00:36:00] sulx: right
[00:36:30] bcgrown-afk: wagnerrp: this bluetooth interface to my brain has come in really handy
[00:36:49] bcgrown-afk: but i have to disconnect for now!
[00:36:53] bcgrown-afk is now known as bcgrown-away
[00:37:16] ** iamlindoro really, really hates it when people change nick for status **
[00:45:35] wagnerrp: would the bindings be considered 'mythtv' or 'plugins'?
[00:46:01] iamlindoro: mythtv IMO
[00:46:32] wagnerrp: chris listed himself under plugins with the perl bindings
[00:46:39] wagnerrp: meh... doesnt really make any difference
[00:46:55] ** wagnerrp prods sphery to join in the fun **
[00:47:01] iamlindoro: probably worth removing the artificial distinction anway
[00:47:02] iamlindoro: anyway
[00:48:22] iamlindoro: I say remove the two headings
[00:48:45] iamlindoro: especially as many/most of us work on both and having two entires would be wrong
[00:48:51] iamlindoro: entries
[00:49:30] wagnerrp: the 'other major contributers' are ones without commit access?

[01:40:48] wagnerrp: requests? sure... plans? not so much
[01:45:05] bcgrown-away: so there is some demand for it? i obviously don't know much about how mythtv works, but it seems like it wouldn't be overly complicated to interface with one of the existing recommendation sites assuming their TOS allowed it
[01:45:47] wagnerrp: got any examples?
[01:46:29] bcgrown-away: of sites?
[01:46:34] wagnerrp: yes
[01:46:49] bcgrown-away: there was a couple posted on reddit a while back, i'll see if i can find them
[01:47:24] bcgrown-away: http://lab.rolisoft.net/tv/
[01:47:38] wagnerrp: if sites exist that we could interface with, it might be a day or two of hacking to put together a script to do so
[01:48:06] wagnerrp: maybe a week with someone who knows the UI to make a full (but basic) plugin
[01:48:36] bcgrown-away: that's the one site, i have no idea if it's set up for that sort of thing
[01:48:58] wagnerrp: looks promising
[01:49:02] bcgrown-away: here's another: http://www.jinni.com/
[01:49:04] wagnerrp: they even have an API
[01:49:44] bcgrown-away: i'm always going through the listings and thinking about how great it would be if myth could just learn what i like and record that
[01:50:20] bcgrown-away: mixing the gf's choices and mine would really confuse it though! ha
[01:50:54] wagnerrp: looks like the second would would violate the 'Use Restrictions' clause of their TOS, subsection 2
[01:51:37] wagnerrp: you could set up separate recording groups for your, her, and shared content
[01:51:51] wagnerrp: then just map against yours and the shared
[01:51:52] [R]: yours and hers mythtv
[01:51:55] [R]: i think you have an idea there
[01:52:49] bcgrown-away: i read someone's comment once that said he sets a recording group for his wife's soaps and changes the playback speed to 1.3x so she gets through them faster. joking i think, but pretty funny
[01:54:22] bcgrown-away is now known as bcgrown
[01:54:44] bcgrown: i'd be willing to help with a recommendation script, but i don't know how much i can do
[01:54:55] bcgrown: i am learning C. kinda familiar with Bash
[01:55:09] bcgrown: C++ scares me
[01:55:39] wagnerrp: bcgrown: for that first site, i could probably whip together something in a couple hours
[01:55:45] wagnerrp: sites that provide APIs are great
[01:57:52] [R]: is there any gotchas with pvr 150's on ebay? or are all they are supported?
[01:58:05] wagnerrp: should all be supported

[02:13:20] ver: [R], i'm using pvr150s, and they're the most reliable and fiddle-free cards i've used.
[02:13:39] ver: one is a kworld brand, the other is i believe geniatech
[02:13:52] bcgrown: [R]: seconded. i'm using the pvr-usb2, which is a usb-connected pvr150
[02:13:53] [R]: i said digital
[02:13:59] [R]: 150 is analog only
[02:14:06] ver: pvr250 or higher

[02:14:18] wagnerrp: the only card to use for digital and analog is the HVR-1600
[02:14:22] ver: you mean ATSC?
[02:14:36] [R]: thats the impression i was getting from ivtv and linuxtv, tahnks wagnerrp
[02:14:44] [R]: what about usb atsc tuners
[02:14:52] [R]: from talk in here... it seems like most are crap
[02:14:59] wagnerrp: HVR-1950
[02:15:07] wagnerrp: (for digital and analog)
[02:15:38] wagnerrp: those limitations are simply because i cannot recommend anything other than an IVTV card for analog
[02:15:38] [R]: what about digital only
[02:15:44] bcgrown: hvr-1950's analog tuner isn't supported, is it?
[02:15:56] wagnerrp: im sure theres plenty... not aware of any particular ones off hand
[02:16:09] wagnerrp: the 1950 shows up as a pvr-usb2
[02:16:17] bcgrown: ah
[02:16:46] bcgrown: i must be thinking of the 2250
[02:16:57] wagnerrp: correct, no linux analog support for the 2250
[02:17:02] wagnerrp: but thats a pcie device, not usb
[02:17:22] bcgrown: i think it's bedtime :)
[02:17:34] ver: HVR950Q still doesn't have atsc support on linux does it?
[02:17:59] wagnerrp: the 950 isnt good for anything else
[02:18:04] wagnerrp: its a framegrabber, dont want it for analog
[02:18:23] ver: works fine on analogue

[08:35:37] TheFrozenSnow: ok, this is the problem with that for me. the channels added are listed as ex. channel 45 shows as 45_5 on digital side which they dont have any info on at SD
[08:39:46] dewman: so go make a listing for digital on sd, modify the channels that you know you wont get, then go back into the backend setup, delete all your video sources and re-add. I messed with this on my system for days trying to get this right.... =)

[09:29:47] iamlindoro: use mythtv.pastebin.com
[09:30:25] iamlindoro: Though at this point TheFrozenSnow is probably correct, either the your storage groups are not set up, or the backend user does not have permissions to write to them

[09:32:06] Nidhoegger: can i somehow change the backend user completely to user?
[09:32:34] iamlindoro: You could, or you could give whatever user you have running the backend permissions to write to that dir

[09:37:26] iamlindoro: BTW, "user" is a horrible user name
[09:37:41] Nidhoegger: iamlindoro, i know ;) but im not very creative
[09:37:59] iamlindoro: anyway, yes, you can, you just need to edit your init script-- but I advise against it as you don't seem very familiar with all this
[09:38:18] iamlindoro: you are very likely just to cause more misconfigurations, whereas you can simply fix your permissions on the dir and be working
[09:38:40] Nidhoegger: i now added a group called mythtv and gave the group full permissions to /home/user/mythtv and added the user "mythtv" to that group

[09:57:24] sphery: analog scanning doesn't work in 0.22, so if you need to do analog scanning (meaning you are /not/ in the US), you should upgrade to 0.23-fixes
[09:58:16] TheFrozenSnow: yep
[09:58:16] sphery: If in the US, you don't do analog scanning (but based on your description of the capture card, I'm assuming you're not in the US)

[11:03:01] wagnerrp: does recording priority have any effect on autoexpiration order?
[11:03:57] janneg: wagnerrp: depends of course on a setting, default is iirc just time

[11:11:55] janneg: wagnerrp: 'Percent of time spent recording' is 'correct' for me, it's diveded by the number of tuners which is a large number for me
[11:12:01] wagnerrp: ah
[11:12:41] wagnerrp: so its meant to be a duty load on the tuners themselves
[11:15:57] janneg: seems so, not that is a meaningful number with multirec
[11:16:48] wagnerrp: yeah, just thought that
[11:17:46] janneg: but computing the time spent recording without counting multiple recordings twice... is probably to complicated to be worth the effort
[11:17:51] janneg: +o
[11:19:28] sphery: wagnerrp: It was broken with the fix for http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/5262 to appease users--they wanted the broken approach.

[11:20:50] sphery: it finally came up--but it took forever
[11:20:58] janneg: wagnerrp: still misleading in the case of multirec
[11:21:31] wagnerrp: janneg: well its a misleading value regardless if you have ever added or removed tuners from your system
[11:21:32] sphery: yeah, and really the original approach is better
[11:21:33] iamlindoro: wagnerrp: I'm still trying to figure it out, but I think it doesn't like commits of many files, or it may be binary commits
[11:21:39] iamlindoro: since translations tend to kill it too

[11:23:29] sphery: I'm sure we could convince kormoc to let us revert that change :)
[11:23:50] sphery: on the grounds of, "The original approach is more meaningful--especially in multirec configurations"
[11:23:54] wagnerrp: i mean who really cares how much the backend load is
[11:24:04] ** iamlindoro senses a retarded ticket coming out of this **
[11:24:06] sphery: though udo was complaining about the multirec
[11:24:20] wagnerrp: that value should be more indicative of how much time YOU have to spend WATCHING all that recorded content
[11:24:26] sphery: that ticket /was/ 5262
[11:24:41] sphery: he complained until we broke something so he wouldn't be offended by 284%
[11:24:58] sphery: wagnerrp: completely agreed
[11:26:26] wagnerrp: if you record 3 channels all-the-time, they you have a value indicative of just how ridiculous that is

[12:50:31] dougt: wagnerrp: i think you might want to have an attribute on the recording object that just hands you back "1736_20100320113500" so that you can use it directly with findfile.
[12:50:34] dougt: (or is there a better way)
[12:53:12] wagnerrp: well it returns the storage group that contains the file
[12:54:23] dougt: r.storagegroup == default
[12:57:47] wagnerrp: so you can just do fname='1736_20100320113500.mpg'; findfile(fname, 'Default').dirname+fname

[14:47:57] wagnerrp: sphery: have they tested http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/attachment/ticket/ . . . _comma.patch ?
[14:49:15] wagnerrp: remember when i asked whether 10 minutes was quick enough for 'cranking out a patch in a couple minutes'

[14:55:00] iamlindoro: no drivers in linux, never will be, and will never have myth support

[14:56:31] dan__t: So I really do need to get an HD PVR
[14:57:05] iamlindoro: wagnerrp: For copy-free
[14:57:06] sphery: that will work
[14:57:26] sphery: or you can use PVR-150 or PVR-500 or HVR-1600\
[14:57:31] sphery: (but standard def)
[14:57:43] dan__t: Yeah, I want HD.
[14:57:44] johnnyj: HDPVR is well worth it – IMO
[14:57:49] dan__t: I've done my homework heh.
[14:57:51] wagnerrp: oh, i thought WMC would handle all playback, and the programs were basically just providing their own UI
[14:58:11] dan__t: So how does MythTV "see" an HDPVR? What kind of device does it show up as?
[14:58:17] sphery: not getting cable, using OTA only, and buying those cable-only shows you want to watch on DVD is worth it – IMO :)

[15:00:31] sphery: hard copy?
[15:00:53] dan__t: ok, well, I'll get an hd pvr then.

[15:15:45] iamlindoro: They announced lots of things, but let me be the first to assure you that they are not abiding by that
[15:15:46] sphery: skd5aner: only for web video distribution
[15:15:54] wagnerrp: skd5aner: not to matter... h265/mpeg7 should be out by then

[15:16:05] skd5aner: web only, I see
[15:16:10] sphery: MPEG-7 is just metadata, silly
[15:16:25] skd5aner: heh – h265...
[15:16:44] wagnerrp: oh? well h265 is still stated for completed draft in 2012
[15:17:01] wagnerrp: with double the compression efficiency of h264
[15:17:42] sphery: so, based on the ones I've heard of--MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4, MPEG-7--we can posit that the next may be MPEG-13.

[15:47:02] johnnyj: what were you looking for?
[15:47:40] sphery: johnnyj: also, for future reference, easiest way to add new files is to: svn add libs/libmythui/screensaver-xdg.cpp ; then, an svn diff will pick up the new files
[15:47:53] iamlindoro: johnnyj: Then it would help if he were running .23 and not some package from weks ago
[15:47:55] johnnyj: and then what to create the patch ?
[15:47:56] sphery: nothing specifically, but you mentioned you were working on something
[15:48:00] iamlindoro: svn diff
[15:48:17] sphery: right, svn diff
[15:48:31] johnnyj: specifically how to name the diff / patch file I create?
[15:48:34] sphery: makes a single patch, which is easier to work with than multiple files
[15:48:56] sphery: svn diff > ~/mythtv-8357-add_xdg-screensaver_support.patch
[15:48:58] iamlindoro: It would also help if ubuntu policy allowed them to push out fixes at some regular interval instead of relying on people to enable what would otherwise seem a perfectly optional repository
[15:49:07] sphery: exactly
[15:49:26] sphery: the "each release is perfect, and you only get security updates" always seemed annoying
[15:49:43] sphery: though, from a package management perspective, makes a lot of sense
[15:50:03] LadyBug: iamlindoro: I am the poster of #28, so what is your problem?

[15:50:26] iamlindoro: and there are no weekly builds
[15:50:42] iamlindoro: so you should get to actual .23 and then try, then post your opinion, in that order ;)

[15:52:52] LadyBug: What in that says I'm not running 0.23?
[15:53:18] iamlindoro: LadyBug: The fact that .23 came out this morning, and mythbuntu shipped with packages with a bug that hasn't existed for weeks, which you are describing
[15:53:34] sphery: LadyBug: yes, please update
[15:53:36] iamlindoro: that's also what tells me you're not runinng the auto-builds, which are nightly, not weekly

[15:56:52] sphery: some former-Gentoo user who had never used Ubuntu and I (who have never used mythbuntu) were able to figure out how to enable auto builds, so it can't be /that/ hard :)

[16:09:06] iamlindoro: Well... good luck
[16:09:22] iamlindoro: skd5aner: They might, once it's at that point you're purely at the mercy of MTV
[16:09:39] skd5aner: iamlindoro: np, wasn't sure if you had experienced the same or not
[16:10:03] iamlindoro: skd5aner: We're just an aggregator/UI/framework, really-- but as we continue to work on the locale-aware stuff I started last week, it should be less and less possible to see videos you aren't able to play
[16:11:16] skd5aner: iamlindoro: I just found it interesting that some videos from a particular artist, would play, and others would not playback just providing a message, something to the effect of not being able to show the video to this location
[16:11:28] LadyBug: iamlindoro: Has the memory footprint of MythTV changed radically going to 0.22 -> 0.23? I have had this box running just fine for several years.

[16:11:51] iamlindoro: skd5aner: MTV provides videos for lots of different locales-- at the moment we don't segregate them... once we do, you will only be presented with playable videos
[16:11:56] RDV_Linux: skd5aner: Be aware that some of the sites (e.g. MTV) are not consistent with the data that ids which country a video can be played in. Sometimes the channel and the specific video have conflicting info.
[16:12:28] skd5aner: RDV_Linux: that sounds consistent with what I was seeing
[16:12:58] skd5aner: It was kind of hit or miss honestly
[16:13:10] skd5aner: 2/3's played ok, 1/3 didn't
[16:13:14] iamlindoro: LadyBug: Don't think anyone around here has considered 512 MB an adequate amount of RAM for some time-- Myth's memory footprint may mildly have changed, but remember you upgraded your entire OS, meaning all sorts of new bells, whistles, and memory eaters
[16:14:00] LadyBug: http://www.mythtv.org/docs/mythtv-HOWTO-3.html still says 512 is ok.
[16:14:08] iamlindoro: The docs are out of date
[16:14:12] iamlindoro: in many places
[16:15:06] skd5aner: LadyBug: yea, 512 is pretty low by current standards for a full system – you'd have to specifically try and optimize everything to work well with that ammount of RAM

[16:54:01] skd5aner: iamlindoro: it's funny when I was trying to explain to my wife why I was replacing the video card in the mythfrontend several months ago, I had never had to say VDPAU outloud. I had to think about it
[16:54:20] skd5aner: said it like VeeDeePah
[16:54:35] iamlindoro: The podcast folks say "VeeDeePeeAyyYou" which takes all the fun out of it
[16:55:19] sphery: VeeDeePeeAtYou

[16:57:13] sphery: 500GB?
[16:57:22] sphery: wow, what ever would you use all that space for?
[16:57:29] highzeth: I always think of the band T'Pau when people talk about VDPAU
[16:58:04] iamlindoro: Looks like a hotel STB
[16:58:17] iamlindoro: as in, the UI reminds me of the crap hotel STBs hooked up via RF
[16:58:20] sphery: well, for some users--buying underpowered hardware--VDPAU /is/ the "Heart and Soul" of their MythTV systems
[16:58:30] sphery: (i.e. they couldn't use MythTV without it)
[16:59:40] j-rod: mythtv has never looked better than it does w/vdpau on my gt220
[17:00:08] j-rod: which is in an athlon x2 box w/4G of RAM. (i.e., it doesn't *need* it)
[17:00:14] johnnyj: vdpau is the Zmodem of today
[17:00:31] j-rod: though admittedly, I don't think I've actually tried !vdpau on this rig
[17:01:08] sphery: j-rod: yeah, that's the right way to do it--use VDPAU as a /feature/ of your system, not a single-point-of-failure for your system
[17:02:53] iamlindoro: Heh, considering how long it takes to fill the DB with MNV items on my powerful systems, I would be amused to know what happens to the ION-backend folks
[17:04:30] ** dustybin fiddles with his backend **
[17:05:11] delmar: Hi everyone. I'm having some issues getting mythtv to drive my Moteck positioner via diseqc 1.2. The card+diseqc setup _seem_ fairly obvious, but mythtv isnt sending the commands. tried mythtv .22 and 0.23. Anyone know much about the diseqc 1.2 support in myth etc? cheers.

[17:11:09] skd5aner: I still get a sort of tearring/interlaced-like effect via VDPAU when there is text or graphics on the video. I almost never notice it in the video itself, just graphics and text
[17:11:30] skd5aner: but other than that VDPAU works great for me with all of my content
[17:13:34] sphery: Isn't that one of the things that you have to enable/disable Composite extension to fix?
[17:15:17] skd5aner: sphery: maybe, no one has really pointed me in any direction to resolve it, and I've almost grown accustomed to it – any advice you have would be greatly appreciated
[17:15:30] highzeth: sounds like it, disable if so
[17:15:51] sphery: in nvidia-settings? or xorg.conf or ?

[17:17:51] skd5aner: highzeth, sphery: thanks, I'll play around – is the general advice to have Option "Composite" "Disable" ?
[17:18:22] highzeth: Option "Composite" "off" under extensions in xorg.conf
[17:18:46] skd5aner: oh, "off" – thx
[17:18:49] sphery: highzeth: yeah, I think the issues are only for those using a poor choice of WM (like Compiz or some other desktop ones)

[19:05:32] RDV_Linux: jolaren: Did you add these videos to Miro your self? It may be that incomplete metadata in the Miro data base is causing issues for MiroBridge.

[21:38:56] iamlindoro: We're back door men here at the MythTV project
[21:39:56] sphery: yeah, I was actually using http... I only svn up once in an http working copy, then tar it, then explode it when I need a clean one, and do all work in the http one. When I want to commit, I explode a clean copy, then svn switch it. That way, I can never accidentally commit from the wrong one and never accidentally leave any garbage in there that gets committed.
[21:40:05] sphery: of course, saying that is just tempting fate

[21:54:37] edomeda: wagnerrp, thanks. Kernel update caused a slight change in the header format (2.6.31–20 -> 2.6.31–21) and made the module not run correctly.
[21:55:15] edomeda: wagnerrp, seems the upcoming recordings appeared after I fixed the tuner problem.
[21:57:18] edomeda: one last question though, how do I enable myth to be able to record more then one channel from the same multiplex? I've got a dual tuner and only three multiplexs, so in theory, I shouldn't I be able to record from all channels on the same multiplexs at once?
[21:57:46] wagnerrp: mythtv will already default to two virtual tuners
[21:59:12] edomeda: is there a way to tell if I have those/am using a virtual tuner to record a show?
[21:59:35] edomeda: I've named my tuners DVBT1 and T2, but only see those listed int he listings

[22:27:57] dan__t: I didn't think about how I'd also have to see the set top box display at the bottom. So I change the channel, mythtv thinks the channel is changed, when in reality a few seconds later it actually initiates the channel change via ir blaster channel change script. I understand the buffer, I've read that.

[22:36:58] wagnerrp: bcgrown: in regards to that recommendation plugin, ive already got an API key for the site
[22:37:22] bcgrown: wagnerrp: awesome, i did too. i didn't realize you were going to work on it
[22:37:38] sphery: bcgrown: no idea which of 3 similarly described, but completely different settings you're lookign for
[22:37:59] Pwen: wagnerrp: thank-you from before. All I had to do was sudo aptitude remove mythvideo && sudo aptitude install mythvideo, it fixed up some problem with it and now jamu is working!
[22:38:55] bcgrown: sphery: i'm looking for the one that affects all recording schedules
[22:39:13] sphery: none does
[22:39:29] bcgrown: sphery: how was i able to set it then?
[22:39:34] sphery: one set affects all schedules created from this point forward (pre-fills values)
[22:39:44] sphery: one set affects open-ended recordings
[22:39:53] sphery: one set affects only a specific rule
[22:40:20] sphery: I have a feeling you're looking for the one that most people abuse
[22:40:59] bcgrown: well when i check my schedules in mythweb the "start early" and "end late" fields are all zeros, but all of my recordings still start a minute early and end a minute late
[22:41:09] sphery: "Time to record before start of show (in seconds)" and "Time to record past end of show (in seconds)" in TV Settings|General
[22:41:13] bcgrown: yes!
[22:41:15] sphery: but they don't affect all schedules
[22:41:26] sphery: or, really, don't affect all recordings
[22:41:45] bcgrown: those are the ones
[22:41:46] bcgrown: thanks
[22:41:53] sphery: and--even with the recent changes that users think will solve all their problems--won't work the way users think they will work
[22:42:01] bcgrown: oh?
[22:42:33] sphery: because priority comes into play
[22:43:13] sphery: http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/dev/435318#435318
[22:43:27] sphery: you have to set priority properly--it's not an "automatic soft padding"
[22:44:00] sphery: and when people /also/ abuse channel and input priorities (or HDTV priority or custom priorities), that becomes a challenge
[22:44:46] bcgrown: what do you mean by abusing them
[22:44:59] sphery: but, on the bright side, now that we have the change that users think will magically solve all their problems, they can start to use it and realize that things are more complex was obvious when the armchair developers were saying it's an easy fix and all we have to do is...
[22:45:20] JJ1 (JJ1!~jjensen@jeffjensen.dsl.visi.com) has joined #mythtv-users
[22:45:31] sphery: basically, channel and input priorities are evil and should almost /never/ be used
[22:45:41] sphery: people usually use them because they don't know how to properly configure their systems
[22:46:26] sphery: or because they're too lazy to do it right (after they're told how--thinking that a 30s job will take longer than 30s) and so they mess with things until the one case they're looking at works, and assume they just "fixed" everything
[22:46:56] sphery: but, hey, I'm a bit jaded when it comes to the whole priority/"soft-padding"/... discussion
[22:47:00] bcgrown: if i want one tuner to always be used for livetv (if available), is there a better way than giving its input a higher priority?

[22:47:52] sphery: input priority has absolutely no effect on Live TV tuner selection--ever
[22:48:26] sphery: but giving it a higher input ID (i.e. connecting its input last) will actually make it the "preferred" Live TV tuner when you also enable the setting, "Avoid conflicts between LiveTV and recordings"
[22:48:33] sphery: and that's the right approach
[22:48:39] sphery: but you leave the input priority at 0
[22:48:47] sphery: the same as all other input priorities

[22:49:36] sphery: so, yes
[22:49:41] moodboom (moodboom!~moodboom@pdpc/supporter/active/moodboom) has quit (Quit: Leaving)
[22:49:53] sphery: delete all capture cards (but not delete all capture cards on <hostname>) will reset IDs
[22:50:06] sphery: and that's the 30s reconfig I mentioned
[22:50:19] sphery: if you don't delete all video sources, you won't lose channel/listings info
[22:50:27] sphery: so just do the capture card portion to reorganize inputs
[22:50:55] aliby: sphery I think you had attempted to my question re: Mythbackend recording on the wrong channel. My apologies but I never did get to see your response & am still having the same problem.
[22:51:12] aliby: *attempted to answer my question
[22:51:37] sphery: actually, I didn't know what might cause that
[22:51:53] sphery: other than a problem with external channel change script or channel configuration
[22:52:16] sphery: is it /really/ every single channel?
[22:52:18] aliby: Ah ok... even weirder, It's a WinTV PVR 500 card which has two tuners built into one card... and one tuner works just fine. The other stays stuck on channel 13
[22:52:31] sphery: might be a hardware issue, then
[22:52:44] sphery: have you tried a power off, wait for 30s, then power on
[22:52:48] aliby: Nope, but I can
[22:52:54] wagnerrp: power off... AND unplug
[22:52:57] sphery: sometimes the hardware needs a hard boot to reinit properly
[22:53:12] sphery: ideally, power off, AND unplug, AND hit the power button a few times while unplugged
[22:53:17] aliby: Yeah, will do so
[22:53:38] wagnerrp: we have a server at work that the onboard intel NICs will get hosed, and it takes an unplug to fix
[22:53:48] sphery: but, yeah, as long as you're doing it unplugging to drain all caps is a great idea
[22:54:44] aliby: Shutting down now, will unplug and mash power/reset button in a sec :p
[22:59:52] bcgrown: wagnerrp: anything I can do to help get the recommendation plugin started? i had a look at the plugin dev guide and it was a little overwhelming. i'm not sure where to start
