Re: [mythtv-users] Need IR receiver recommendation
Need IR receiver recommendation. Needs to be compatible with MythTV. I would also like to use it with xine and tvtime. I don't want to build one. I want to buy one. Recommendations? I got mine from http://lnx.manoweb.com/lirc/?partType=sectionpartName=buy It was only 12EUR (£9) including shipping from Italy to me in the UK -- it's $15 inclusive to the USA. You need a free serial port (no usb), but it's a nice cheap solution and it works with lirc. :) I bought one of these, too, but haven't had a chance to try it out yet. It's very small, so does it require a serial cable to put it in a position where you can point your remote at it? Or does it not require line-of-sight? With the receiver plugged into the back of my beige box, and no way for the signals to get to it except bouncing over the top of the case, I get about 13 feet. This also means the receiving sensor is pointing sideways too. Line-of-sight, I just turned my PC around and measured right into the far corner of the room and it still works fine at 20 feet. This is using the standard remote which came with my Avermedia DVB-T 771 card. I will be using a video sender with remote control functionality when I have checked my system passes the GAF test, so this doesn't really affect me. But it certainly seems to have good capabilities. Reminds me of the receiver used in the xbox dvd kit. Will ___ mythtv-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users

Hi Mark, I can't see how the offset is supposed to straddle daylight saving change. Perldoc reports 'tz_local_offset() determins the offset from GMT time in seconds.

The PVR-x50 cards use the less-common RC-5 IR protocol, so they may be slightly more difficult to find a remote for, but they'll work with just about any Philips, Magnavox or Marantz remote, or a universal programmed as a Philips (this is what I do).

However besides trying to hit record at the exact moment I've configured a manual recording session, I can't think of any way to make Myth do it.

If you hit R at 9:55 myth will stop recording at 10 because the programming is got stored ends there. It would be cool to have a way to manual schedule from live tv, the way you would do with a VCR (just record this for the next two hours) The problem with using cat /dev/video0 tmp/test_capture.mpg is that I would like to use edit mode to remove commercial breaks. I have a ton of tennis matches on VHS tapes and mythcommflag works great getting the breaks right when I capture these. I agreed that current Myth functionality is not well suited to copying videos from a VCR. I have several dozen old home movies to archive to DVD, and I'm still trying to come up with a good way of doing this. Ideally, I'd like to see a VHS dub mode in Myth. In this mode, you could configure Myth to record for X minutes (ex 120 mins), then hit a key or button to begin recording now. This is different from recording Live TV because you can set an end time. It is different from the manual recording mode because you can press the begin recording now key as you press play on the VCR; in manual mode you have to set the time for the start of the recording, and then try to press play at the exact time you have scheduled - this is not a trivial difference. I'd like to try implementing this myself, and I may try later this month when I'm on vacation. But my C++ skills are a bit rusty... so we'll see. Other advanced functions that I think would be very useful in a VCR dub mode would be blank screen detection. A lot of my home videos don't use the whole tape. Consequently, if I dub the whole tape onto the computer, I often end up with 10-20 minutes of blank, blue screen at the end of the tape. It would be great if this could be marked automatically, in a similar manner to how commercials are detected. Anyway, enough daydreaming for now... Lane This doesn't seem all that difficult to me. You just set the recording for a few minutes more than the tape length, watch your status of recording on either MythWeb or in the status screen in Myth. When it says recording, press play. When it is done, press stop. Then, use the edit mode to create a cut-list. You can then transcode or do whatever with it. Of course, I don't have any tapes to put on the computer. Additionally, seems like the C++ shouldn't be that hard to add a hot key for it, and have it prompt you at the end for a name, etc. I love Myth.

You can get at the RGB signal of most any video card through the VGA connector. In fact, I believe you can even get pre-made VGA to SCART-RGB adapters.

I'm particularly interested in the ASUS Pundit-R and the ATI 9100 chipset that it uses. I've seen reports of the SiS chipset in the older Pundit's being able to do it but nothing for the Pundit-R. Interestingly the manual for the Pundit-R lists SCART_RGB as a choice for the TV output mode in the BIOS but it isn't clear what that does or how you would get at the RGB signal if there is one.

Re: [mythtv-users] HD-2000 with new drivers
On Wed, 1 Dec 2004, Kyle Rose wrote: I posted a message on the pcHDTV forums about this, but they don't appear to read their own forum because I have gotten zero response about this.

Any clues as to why this would be? Cheers, Kyle Jack at pcHDTV knows about the problem, but has not had time to fix it yet. I don't know of anyone that has their HD-2000 working with the new driver.

Re: [mythtv-users] uninstall mythtv how?
Jeff Thompson wrote: Try: apt-get remove myth* and if that doesn't get it all, then add: apt-get remove libmyth* Hmmm, I see from my reading and your post that apt-get supports regex in the package name. Interesting, and I will probably get by with this, but it seems to me from my research, so far, that debian doesn't have a system restore option or undo function for package/system changes. Has no one ever created a package to track what was changed so it can be rolled back to a previous state? This may be off-topic I suppose?

[mythtv-users] Playing Tivo .ty files within Myth?
I was wondering if there is a way to play tivo (I have a directTivo series 2), inside mythtv. My goal is to utilize myth's commercial skipping featuring. I can currently play the files in mplayer. There was a thread on a BB about adding this to tivo-player (or some such name), but I have not seen a post since March on it. Thanks in Advance.

[mythtv-users] Help with nforce2 sound?
Okay, I'm definitely scratching my head on this one... I recently got a new Chaintech 7NIF2 mobo w/nForce2 (MCP) sound. Everything's good, except no matter what I do I can't control the volume! I've tried the i810 OSS driver (what FC1 detected), and I've also tried the nvsound.o module from Nvidia. Both give me a mixer device, but nothing I do seems to affect the line-out. Luckily for me the volume is 'stuck' at an acceptable volume :-) Anybody have a clue? If I get some time I'll try ALSA, but if I'm getting sound then the mixer should work, neh? -JAC ___ mythtv-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users

I think it startead doing this writeblock thing after first boot. And I did not get the ivtv driver to load automatically. I don't realiy know that could the bug be in Qt3 or something or ivtv or what ..
