| [01:32] <lwizardl> Hi | |
| [01:34] <lwizardl> anyone here able to help me with getting my 3 video sources cards setup properly in ubuntu so that I can use them in mythtv | |
| [01:34] <lwizardl> my cards are a Hauppage PVR-150, Kworld ATSC 110, and a Digiwave 103g DVB-S | |
| [02:32] <nwidger> anyone know how to change the default sound card? | |
| [03:14] <npurciful> I have a quick question about the disk check and mythtv storage, i have 1TB for storage and the disk check takes hours to run is it even nessary on a mythtv only drive | |
| [03:36] <BLACKthroat> could someone help with listings? | |
| [03:44] <BLACKthroat> its not properly naming the channels | |
| [04:31] <ddgoose> npurciful what disk check do you mean? | |
| [04:31] <ddgoose> BLACKthroat: that has come up a few times past couple days, what exactly is happening with yours? | |
| [04:33] <npurciful> ddgoose: fsck | |
| [04:33] <BLACKthroat> well, i signed up at schedulesdirect.org to get a login and password | |
| [04:33] <ddgoose> npurciful on boot or in mythtv? | |
| [04:34] <BLACKthroat> and it doesn't appear to get the listings | |
| [04:34] <npurciful> ddgoose: on boot | |
| [04:34] <ddgoose> Is it doing it every time you boot? | |
| [04:35] <npurciful> ddgoose: no i was just wondering if it is nessary being the nature of a mythtv drive it is 1TB and take a really long time | |
| [04:36] <npurciful> ddgoose: there is no OS on this disk just recordings | |
| [04:37] <BLACKthroat> i shouldn't have to name each channel correct? that is the whole purpose of XMLTV i thought | |
| [04:37] <ddgoose> what fs are you using on you 1tb drive? | |
| [04:37] <ddgoose> BLACKthroat no you shouldnt have to | |
| [04:37] <ddgoose> afaik | |
| [04:38] <npurciful> ddgoose: ext3 | |
| [04:38] <ddgoose> npurciful use tune2fs to increase max-mount | |
| [04:39] <ddgoose> think its tune2fs -c <max number of mounts before fsck> | |
| [04:39] <npurciful> okay to like 45, 60 | |
| [04:40] <ddgoose> well normally a ext3 filesystem never gets marked dirty so it shouldn't be fsck's unless there was a problem | |
| [04:40] <ddgoose> yeah I think the default is like 30 | |
| [04:40] <ddgoose> lemme check | |
| [04:41] <ddgoose> I think its 30 something by default, man page doesn't say | |
| [04:42] <npurciful> i upped to 45 see how that works | |
| [04:42] <ddgoose> if you had an error the kernel will force a check on the next boot so if it's happening frequently you may have an issue | |
| [04:44] <ddgoose> what brand os your 1tb disk? | |
| [04:44] <ddgoose> is even | |
| [04:44] <npurciful> well if it happens again i will probably just reload, i had gusty, then hardy alpha1-release | |
| [04:44] <npurciful> Western Digital GP | |
| [04:44] <ddgoose> did you run a do-release-upgrade on that hardy yet? | |
| [04:45] <ddgoose> BLACKthroat I don't use the listing so I can't help you there, someone will wake up eventually that can. | |
| [04:46] <npurciful> yeah, i up todate | |
| [04:47] <ddgoose> npurciful if you have any more unexpected fsks on the disk I would run the smart and long test using western digital disk tools on windows and consider getting an RMA on it | |
| [04:47] <npurciful> ah like the disk failing | |
| [04:47] <ddgoose> right | |
| [04:47] <ddgoose> better sooner than later | |
| [04:48] <npurciful> definatly | |
| [04:48] <ddgoose> I had to rma 4 disks recently with same type issue | |
| [04:48] <ddgoose> 2 seagates and 2 wd's | |
| [04:49] <ddgoose> I only give them 1 or 2 unexpected fscks before I scan them and rma | |
| [04:49] <npurciful> whoa that is a lot of disk and heat | |
| [04:49] <ddgoose> different machines | |
| [04:49] <npurciful> The GPs are cool to the touch | |
| [04:49] <ddgoose> I have a rack of servers here in my garage | |
| [04:50] <npurciful> ddgoose: ah i see | |
| [04:54] <ddgoose> what speed are those GP? | |
| [05:08] <npurciful> ddgoose: there supposed to be varible 5400-7200, but i also herd they where just 5400 | |
| [05:37] <pteague> my compaq armada e500 is doing a decent job considering the hardware, but it gets a bit jerky at times | |
| [06:18] <levander> I'm still getting mythbuntu developer meeting notices even though I've asked several timesto be taken off that list. | |
| [06:21] <BLACKthroat> how much easier is it to get mythbuntu to run compared to mythtv on ubuntu? | |
| [06:22] <BLACKthroat> there are a few things i need to work out with mythtv, but am wondering if my dvr will work faster/smoother with mythbuntu installed | |
| [06:25] <ddgoose> I prefer starting with mythbuntu because it does some of the configuration right in ubiquity | |
| [06:54] <rhpot1991> BLACKthroat: should be abouts the same | |
| [06:54] <foxbuntu> BLACKthroat, because of our dev practices its nearly the exact same thing | |
| [06:58] <pteague> anybody have any ideas on getting the videos from http://www.mspportal.com/action/showservice.jsp?homePath=http://www.mspportal.com/nmt&serviceid=nmt&portalcat=0&start=1&end=1&serviceno=1&res=1280x720 to work? | |
| [07:01] <pteague> it's a *.mp4 file - shouldn't the mythbrowser be able to handle those? | |
