Re: [mythtv-users] Using MythTV as a non-TV recording device
I am doing something similar for my church. I have a Mythtv system build to record all of the services and then we burn them (with the myth box) to DVD for members to purchase. Yes it is over kill but it works well. I can manually set a recording so the tech guys don't have to worry about a thing. We don't do any editing so that is not a concern (yet). I considered using a whole host of progs on Linux but most of the editing progs have issues with large files. My research is a few months dated so I don't know if that has been addressed. Still, having the ability to schedule a recording and then have everything cataloged in Mythtv works very well for us. ___ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
[mythtv-users] No sound since upgrade
I have put this on the back burner for a long time but now I need to get it working. Ever since I upgraded to .17 I have no sound coming into MythTV. I had it working in .16. Whenever I view live tv, I get no sound. I can playback other video that I previously ripped and get sound without a problem. I don't get sound with just Mplayer either. If I run /usr/bin/aplay /usr/share/sounds/KDE_Startup.wav it works no problem. Are there any other tests I can run? I have been through Jarod's site and searched all over but haven't found my problem answered. I am running FC3 64. Thanks for your help.

[mythtv-users] Record from the live viewing screen?
Did I miss this somewhere? I want to be able to manually record the live show that I am watching from the live screen...even if I didn't previously schedule it. How is this done? Thanks.

Re: [mythtv-users] Mythtv on x86_64 SMP
I have MythTV running on my 3500+ (single) on FC3took quite a long time. I think I started in October! I don't have the following installed or working yet: 1. Mythmusic 2. Mythphone 3. Burning files to DVD 4. Mythweb... I installed from individual pieces...meaning not from the mythTV-suite. I did it one thing at a time in the end it it all worked. I had loads of MySQL problems and had to upgrade to 4.x which introduced other issues becuase of upgrading. I still have php-mysql issues and it is driving me nuts. I am a nubie to both Linux and MythTV so...well you can imagine my pain. I work in the IT field so I have the background but this was a new animal for me. I am tempted to ghost the box and reinstall becuase I have a lot of weird dep errors but...tracing my steps might be very time consuming too. I upgrade my kernal recently...bad idea. Now I don't have sound. Need to get that fixed tonight. (hopefully) Let me know if you have specific questions and I'll try to figure out how I got it done.

I am a newbie on Mythtv and it has been a long time on Linux. It has taken me many weeks staying up lateAnyway I was finally able to record through my s-video tonight. My question is, my remote only works if I start the mythfrontend as root which of course I don't want to do on a regular basis. Any thoughts? I am running FC3 64/AMD64, with a PVR-250. Thoughts?
