[mythtv-users] uc: Strange DVB Kernel Signal loss
Hi I have been running FC3 quite stabily for a long time, this weekend I decide it wont be hard to start again and use FC4 this time instead. Oh how wrong am i! I have FC4 all up and running to the stage that FC3 once was. However I have noticed this strangeness: In FC3 I was using kernel 2.6.11.x, my dvb card in myth would do a full scan with no multiplex prior listed and pick up all channels In FC4 using kernel 2.6.14, my dvb card wont do a full scan, it fails tuning, if I add multiplexs manually and scan those (ie ones from FC3 db) then it will pick up most channels but fails to tune 2 multiplexs. In FC4 if I boot using kernel 2.6.11, I can now tune these 2 multiplexs as well. Eh? Is it me or is there a weird issue in the newer kernels relating to DVB. I tried kernel 2.6.15 (from fc4 testing) and I also tried compiling CVS DVB/V4L modules against 2.6.14. none of this worked either. How come I am loosing signal by changing kernels? Now I would just revert back to using 2.6.11, but support packages for this kernel are long gone, ie nvidia-kmdl and I don't want to use the nvidia installer. Does anyone have any ideas?

I know this is off topic but: Is it possible to upgrade my FC3-FC4 without a reinstall. Can I just change sources.list to point to fc4 packages over fc3?

One thing I haven't checked that may be of interest is whether mplayer displays this behaviour or not. Thomas, just out of interest, do you have 'use video as timebase' checked or not? This setting could be related and is probably worth testing. I can probably supply a short mpeg file that demonstrates this behaviour if required.

[mythtv-users] transcode settings bug?
Hi I have setup mythtv many times before and had transcode working nicely. However this time I set it all all and when I transcode I get fairly big files. I am using 0.18 release. I have changed the low and high quality settings in h/w encoders (I have a nova-t dvb card). I only changed the vid to default mpeg4 but changed bitrate to 2000 for high and 800 for low and audio to mp3 32000 at quality 7. But when I encode a file for example The bill, normal size 1.64G, before transcoding After transcoding 1.4G in low? That's not much of a change! Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug ? I have AC3 passthrough set if it makes any odds. Any suggestions?

I was running a frontend and backend on an EPIA m10k for the last 8 months or so. It was ok, a little slow and always a pain to compile, transcode, get the h/w mpeg2 decoder working. I finally gave in the other day and decided to move for an easier faster life. I shall be ebaying my old epia very soon I think. For £150 I got a nforce 2 aopen xcube, dvd 16x dual layer writer and a sempron 2600, I used my old hard drive (120gb) and old mem (512). 200W power supply also so still no worries with leaving it on 24/7. The cube itself has onboard audio and geforce mx 4 etc.. After installing FC3 from scratch and and setting up ATRPMS and getting mythtv-suite. A few configurations and a mysql source all is back to normal. And so much faster and smoother than ever before. I did try using XVMC acceleration for displaying live tv, but disliked the fact things were in B/W and also it seemed very sketching, kinda streaking with white lines, so I turned that off. CPU usage without XvMc is laughable anyhow so makes no odds. I must say im impressed with the dvd rip facility, wish you could specify lower bit rates though. One thing I wish we could sort out, is burning files to dvd. I see mythburn and nuv2burn (or some similar name) made a good start, but haven't got too far yet. Would be nice to see.

Whenever I've demuxed recordings to burn to DVD, they've always come out as MP2 streams. Having a Pundit-R system, one of the last things I have left to configure is to run the sound through the SPDIF so I'd be interested in your responses.

[mythtv-users] uc: spdif anyone?
Does anyone use spdif digital audio with AC3 over DVB or am I flogging a dead horse? Hi I have mythtv 0.18 compiled with alsa, I have alsa correctly using spdif. I have a dvb-t setup in the uk, nova-t so should be fine for AC3 encoded channels. For example mplayer ac3test.avi -ac hwac3 -vo null switches my external amp to DD and all sounds great. I have enabled my mythtv audio setup to pass AC3 through and have set the device to ALSA:iec958 and I get sound through my amp now over coaxial, But my amp does not switch to DD. Now my question, is ALSA:iec958 the correct device for a via epia m10k? if so how do I make mythtv output AC3 channels to my amp? Am I Missing something here? Please help!! P.s. I have checked the forums and this is as far as I can go information wise!

What do these drivers provide? Do they provide mpeg2 decoding on chip? Or is it just 3d acceleration? Does it replace the need for viaxvmc?

Works fine for me. :) I had a very quick look but the docs in the distribution seemed a bit poor and I haven't looked at them in depth. Which docs in particular? Perhaps either pointing out which bits are bad and need improving or making the improvements would help?

Hehe I thought as much. Didn't realise there was a new open source unichrome release (non via) -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ivor Hewitt Sent: 20 April 2005 15:10 To: Discussion about mythtv Subject: Re: [mythtv-users] Request info from working M10K frontend.

Oops, I've just realised you mean VIA's new open source Unichrome driver release as opposed to the new Unichrome open source driver release. Doh. Must pay attention, must pay attention. This is going to get confusing, VIA Open Source Unichrome driver vs Open Source Unichrome VIA driver Ho hum. Anyway, in summary, no there's no point trying to use the VIA driver with myth since the VIA driver only provides their proprietary ddmpeg API. -- Ivor http://www.ivor.it ___ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users The Information contained in this E-Mail and any subsequent correspondence is private and is intended solely for the intended recipient(s).

[mythtv-users] uc: Keyboard and lirc woes - funny problem
Hi does anyone know why this is: When I click enter on the keyboard or ok on the remote control on a mythtv frontend button the button just depresses and stays depressed, ie does not click to progress. Now this used to work, the only thing I have probably changed is the distribution packages, ie FC3 apt-get update and upgrade, I am using the default apt sources list. Any ideas? This one is bugging me? I am thinking its either lirc or xorg, which have both been upgraded since it used to work.

[mythtv-users] uc: FC3 And latest CVS Problem
Hi I apt upgraded my FC3, my FC3 uses the standard apt stable packages as specified on Jarod Wilsons page. When I upgraded my FC3 I got a new Xorg, however whenever I try to compile mythtv CVS I get an error saying it cannot find "-LXext" supposedly linking the X extensions, but I thought this package was part of the core implementation of Xorg? Anyone got any ideas?

[mythtv-users] uc: Epia Unichrome viaXvMC Unichrome, does anyone have it stable? please read if u use it
I am using CVS mythtv with viaXvMC support compiled in, Latest cvs version of DRI module via.ko, Latest cvs version of via_drv.o Latest cvs version of libviaXvMC.* And to be fair, my backend is stable enough, but the frontend is just not stable. More so recently, but has always been so. I seemed to have best results before viaXVMC was even introduced and it was libdd(I think? Was ages ago!). I am going to try older cvs versions later tonight and test them, but I would love some feedback from other users. Whats your setup and how well does it work? (ie driver versions or cvs dates, mythtv versions, board) - unichrome only please.
