Bug#586571: Update

2010-06-26 Thread Michael Lamothe
Tags: upstream

I've addressed 2.5 of these issues upstream in the lp:me-tv/1.3
branch, please give it a go and tell me what you think.  The last part
of your request (continual looping) isn't really in Me TV's scope, it
requires a working DVB setup.  It does not try to solve
hardware/driver issues.

Bug#586574: me-tv: export option for channels.conf

2010-06-21 Thread Michael Lamothe

Hi Julian, just to be clear, there are no configuration/preference
settings in the Me TV database, it's all in GConf.  However, I
understand the confusion here because scheduled recordings could be
considered preferences.  The GConf documentation [0] makes it pretty
clear that GConf should not be used to store important application
data.

  "Do not store anything but preferences in GConf. Documents, session
state, random data blobs do not belong in GConf. Stuff breaks if you
do this."

I consider scheduled recordings not to be preferences.  This backed up
by the GConf people, "THERE IS NO GUARANTEE THAT IT'S EVEN POSSIBLE TO
WRITE TO THE GCONF DATABASE".  Scheduled recordings fall into the
essential data category.

Please let me know if I've missed something.

Bug#586574: me-tv: export option for channels.conf

2010-06-21 Thread Michael Lamothe

Not true,

1. sqlite3 ~/.local/share/me-tv/me-tv.db ".dump channel" > channel.sql
2. sqlite3 ~/.local/share/me-tv/me-tv.db < channel.sql

1. will export channels, 2. will import channels.  Of course, you can
always just copy the database file.

Bug#586571: me-tv: unhelpful if reception is bad

2010-06-20 Thread michael . lamothe

Severity: wishlist

From that I get:

* The second message "Failed to get display stream" is not required, agree  
to fix, but it's not fatal, wishlist.
* You want some kind of notification that application is tuning, sure, why  
not for 1.3, but not fatal, wishlist
* Auto re-tune if tuning failed. It sounds like you are trying to use Me TV  
as a tool to find the best reception. This is not part of Me TV's scope  
especially when there are better tools for this job (*zap). I could put  
status information in the new control bar in Me TV 1.3 so that it's not  
modal and continue looping, I guess. I'll look into doing this, but it's  
also a wishlist.


Bug#582613: still in 1.2.4

Yes, Me TV 1.2.4 was released on 2010-05-16, the fix was committed in
revision 477 on the 2010-05-28.


Bug#540422: scan fails if lines in the initial tuning data file start with

2009-08-07 Thread Michael Lamothe
Hi Christoph,

This issue has been fixed in a more recent version of Me TV.  Me TV
1.0.0 is due to be released on the 10 August and a debian package will
be uploaded to mentors shortly after.  Hopefully it will attract a
sponsor then.  In the meantime you can try/test the latest beta [0].

Cheers,

Michael

someone to updload it into Debian.

I bet that it doesn't work in xine either, right?  I've seen this
before and I think that this is a xine-ui issue.

Bug#523871: me-tv: Recommend dvb-apps

2009-04-13 Thread Michael Lamothe
Thanks for the suggestion, this was always my intention but somehow it got
lost.

I have already fixed the issue though and the package is awaiting a sponsor
on mentors [0].  I guess that we can only close this issue when someone
uploads it.

Thanks,

Michael

2009-03-29 Thread Michael Lamothe
0.7.16 is dead-sexy in comparison and I understand why you would gravitate
to it but now we have a "grave" bug that nobody has an environment to
reproduce it in.

We might have to change statuses until someone is prepared to test it.

Thanks,

Michael

2009-03-29 Thread Michael Lamothe
If you can't be bothered then I can understand that.  If you would like it
fixed I'm willing to help, your call.

I think that version had a ~/.me-tv/me-tv.config file where the settings are
held.  If you know XML then you can edit the file.  Look for something like
"xine.video_driver".  It might be set to something like "xv", try "xshm".

Thanks,

Michael

Bug#515847: me-tv: Me-TV behaves badly with more than one DVB adapter

2009-02-18 Thread Michael Lamothe
Hi Gregor,

I'm on it.  The truth is that Me TV has never properly supported 2 tuner
cards, mostly because I only have one.  I will be removing the menu item in
favour of a Devices Dialog which can be used to select a tuner.  When you
start Me TV and there are multiple tuners available it will prompt you to
select a tuner, that setting will be stored in GConf at
/apps/me-tv/default_device.  You will be able to call the Devices Dialog at
any time from View->Devices while the application is running.

I've already started work on this and would expect to finish development
tonight (in 10 hours).  I will need your help with testing, please get the
latest development branch from https://code.launchpad.net/me-tv and build
it.  If you're new at this (I think not) then read
https://answers.launchpad.net/me-tv/+faq/352.

For now, I've added the tuner path to the menu item for you but I don't
think that those menu items ever worked.

Thanks,

Michael


Bug#510612: me-tv: problem with UTF-8 prevents channel-scan window from closing

2009-01-06 Thread Michael Lamothe
Hi Norman,

Not sure if you've worked this one out but the easiest thing for you
to do is go into the ~/.me-tv/channels.conf and fix it up with a text
editor.

Thanks,

Michael

Bug#466777: Eats a lot of cpu and blocks gui

2008-02-21 Thread Michael Lamothe
Hi Matthias,

I think that these issues are addressed at
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/me-tv/+bug/192355.  If
you've got the time then please try the new upstream 0.5.19 and tell
me if it fixes your issues.

The EPG reader _is_ in a separate thread but GTK is not multi-thread
safe, it is however multi-thread aware.  The issue is that GTK really
only allows 1 thread to update the UI at a time, that's why it appears
to lock-up.  I've made the EPG update yield its lock more regularly
which I think gets around this issue.

There can be several reasons why your CPU usage might be high, if you
find that 0.5.19 does not fix your issue then we might need to isolate
further.  Please let me know.

Thanks for trying Me TV.  I hope that we can sort these issues out so
that you can enjoy it as much as I do. :)

Thanks,

Michael

Bug#435001: RFP: me-tv - A digital television viewer for GNOME

2007-07-28 Thread Michael Lamothe
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

I've built a digital television viewer for GNOME that I'd like to see
included in Debian. I've made it available in launchpad at
https://launchpad.net/me-tv and provided debs and the source for it as
downloadable project files. It's written in C/C++ using Anjuta and
I've used dh_make/dpkg-buildpackage to build the debs.  I've also
provided screen-shots at http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Me_TV.

There are no known bugs in the application and only one low priority UI issue.

I wish to release me-tv under the GPL.  I really hope that you accept
it into Debian and give me an opportunity to give something back to
the community. Thanks in advance.
