Hi

As Bjorn said, the US pre-built system can be found at:
http://mythic.tv/product_info.php?products_id=44

This was also the company I had in mind when I was talking about
web-sites being
set up to specifically address the hardware requirements of Myth users.

Slashdot ran an article in '04 about an Aussie company that was also shipping
pre-built systems:
http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=04/03/25/240

I was obviously addressing the UK market in the presentation, and I'm
not aware
of anything that I use that is a legal problem, except possibly for one thing.
I *think* that there may be a question of my right to copy my recordings to my
PSP (for me only and no-one else). However, if this is true, then every single
one of these products is also illegal:
http://www.empiredirect.co.uk/content/products/list.asp?subdept=dvdhddrecorder
because they allow you to shift your recordings from the hard drive to a DVD.

Anyway, thanks for the positive feedback

Kind Regards

[mythtv-users] MythTV presentation at WSFII

2005-10-02 Thread Mike Ryan
Hi All

Yesterday, I gave a presentation on MythTV at WSFII (World Summit on Free
Information Infrastructures - http://www.okfn.org/wsfii/). For those
interested, the talk is available to download from here:
http://nodel.org/wsfii/wsfii-day1-audio/wsfii-03-OpenHw.mp3
(The recording is a bit poor in places, but it was a really big, echoey room).

Bear in mind, I only effectively had about 4 mins to present MythTV, as half of
the 10 min presentation needed to relate to the advantages of open source.
(Also, ignore my mix up about 2 mins in - can never get the hang of powerpoint
- ho-hum).

I'll put the persentation up somewhere shortly for download

The event itself wasn't as technical as previous demonstrations I've been
involved in so I didn't go into too much detail about how to build the systems.
However, a large number of people came up to me afterwards to discuss MythTV
which was gratifying.

Any comments or feedback would be welcome

Re: [mythtv-users] MythTV Presentation

2005-09-18 Thread Mike Ryan

Quoting Dewey Smolka <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:


If I may make a suggestion.. Make a statement or two about the freedom
MythTV offers.  When I was looking at building or buying a PVR, I made
the decision to go with Myth primarily for the reason that I expected
the recording industry lobbyists and advertisers to ruin the commercial
PVRs.  We're starting to see that happen, with them controlling the
content in more and more ways.  With Myth, I don't have to deal with any
of that nonsense.  I can use the system to legally time shift and
archive shows I pay for with my cable TV subscription and not be treated
like a criminal for it.


Hear, hear.

I find that one of the weakest ways to promote any FOSS system or
application is on price. This is particularly true with something like
MythTV, where the OS and software may not cost anything, but the
hardware cost of the system is comparable to MCE, and far more than
TiVo (which, IMHO, will not be around much longer despite its name and
mindshare). This is not to mention the time it takes to get something
like Myth up and running.

The thing to tout with Myth is that it's your system, not MS's, not
the cable operators, and not TiVo's, meaning it's up to you what your
machine does, and there's nothing in Myth to prevent you from doing
whatever you want with your media.

Some talking points to consider (in no particular order):

* Distributed architecture and expandability. This is one area where
Myth blows everyone else away. It's a set of modular parts that can
all go on one machine or spread across as many machines as the user
wants. MCE extender modules are not really the same thing.

* DRM. Simpy put, Myth hasn't got it now and will never have it;
everyone else does, and theirs will get worse as time goes on. Most
consumers are sympathetic to the idea that artists and creators need
to be paid. This is why consumers pay for cable TV instead of splicing
a signal from their neighbors. This is why most consumers buy/rent
DVDs instead of scouring BT for cam copies. But this sympathy goes
away the minute a consumer can't use paid-for content in ways they are
used to. Have you bought a new copy-protected
CD-that's-not-really-a-CD? MythTV and GNU/Linux can read, rip, mix and
burn the audio content however you want. MS MCE cannot. Repeat this
statement as often as necessary.

Myth is based on the idea that content (whether broadcast or delivered
on optical disc or otherwise) that you buy is yours, and you are free
to time-shift, format-shift, and backup however you want (provided you
do not try to redistribute your content in illegal ways -- this is not
supported by MythTV, and is actively (and adamantly) discouraged by
the Myth community and the developers). MS MCE is built on the idea
that you have bought a license to the content, and they can redefine
the license terms at any time for any reason.

* DRM pt2: HD. Make sure you mention MS' plans to require DRMed
display devices in future versions of MS Windows for HD playback.
Basically, if you set up an HD-capable MCE system today (if that's
possible) it may not work for HD in the future without a new display.
I believe starting with Vista, the video signal (at least when HD)
will be encrypted, and must be decrypted by your display. That $1200
LCD you just bought will be obsolete for MCE in less than two years.
Don't like it? Buy another display.

* Community development. MythTV is developed by people who want the
same things as you or me -- things that make viewers happy. Like com
flagging and transcoding, archiving to optical media, management and
playback of virtually any media file, the freedom to tweak the sytstem
to add functionality, and giving nobody the ability to change my
system, its capabilities, or the terms under which I use it without my
consent.

Contrast with MCE -- developers want to keep MS happy (locking people
into closed, proprietary formats); MS wants to keep content producers
happy (by restricting use, preventing copying and archiving,
'expiring' recordings, having the box phone home to check up on your
activities, etc); and both of them would like to be the gatekeepers
for all forms of digital media.

In summary: cost is not a major concern. What should be a major
concern is how robust the system is, how flexible it is, how
expandable it is, and how the system will grow to address the needs of
its users. MythTV is without doubt the most powerful media engine on
the planet and its strenth is growing at a breathtaking pace.

MCE is overpriced and bloated, built on top of XP Home rather than XP
Pro (meaning crippled networking and lack of solid admin tools),
closed and locked down, and allows you fewer possibilities with your
media than you had in the analog days.

TiVo is a different category of device, since it is cheap hardware
supported by excessive monthly fees, and is not really a media center
because it only does TV, not home videos, not music, not pictures, and
certainly not DVD archiving. TiV

to speak at the World Summit on Free Information Infrastructures which is
taking place on Saturday 1st & Sunday 2nd of October at Limehouse Town Hall in

I mention this in case anyone would like to come along and provide some moral
support and help fly the flag for MythTV here in the UK.

It'll only be a short presentation (10 minutes or so probably), so there's only
a limited amount of high-level information I'll be able to get across. However,
there's a QA session afterwards as well.

Also, as you can see from the programme, there's plenty of other great
interesting things to go and see as well

[mythtv-users] MythTV at Open Tech 2005

2005-07-23 Thread Mike Ryan

Hi

Just thought everyone might be interested to know that I did a 
presentation this

morning at Open Tech 2005 in West London. The event was recorded so will be
viewable over the next couple of days, and the slides I used in the
presentation will be available for download
http://www.ukuug.org/events/opentech2005/

I was anticipating doing an in depth presentation on the features of Myth, but
the organisers felt it would be more appropriate to discuss the technical side
of things and how to do an implementation. (Mind you, with a 10 minute slot,
that was difficult). So, don't be too upset if I didn't mention this 
feature or

that feature. Also, in my final sum up slide I touched on the future of Myth,
but did stress that I wasn't part of the development team and these were just
my opinion.

Anyway, it seemed to go down well, and I hope I've done my part in getting the
word out about this fantastic project

Just make sure you only run it that way for occasional screenshots...

[mythtv-users] Transcoding for Sony PSP with thumbnail

2005-07-10 Thread Mike Ryan
All

I've been playing around with transcoding video for the PSP to watch on the way
to work. To recap so far, to convert direct from a nuv to the MP4 file, I do
the following:
ffmpeg -y -i /mythtv/recordings/1084_20050703130500_20050703140500.nuv -bitexact
-f psp -s 320x240 -r 29.97 -b 512 -acodec aac -ac 2 -ar 24000 -ab 32
/mythtv/video/M4V10001.MP4

What I've just been doing, is working on creating the thumbnail to go with this:
mplayer -vo jpeg -frames 2
/mythtv/recordings/1084_20050703130500_20050703140500.nuv
mogrify -geometry 160x120! 0001.jpg
mv 0001.jpg /mythtv/video/M4V10001.THM

So, when both files get copied over to the PSP, you should now get the video
with a thumbnail.

Quick question - does anyone know how to get mplayer to capture an image at
frame 100, or something like that?

Now I've just got to work on getting the title, as I current see all files
called M4V10001.MP4 (or something similar), and I'd like to preserve the
programme title information.

Hope this is of use to somebody

[mythtv-users] Problem using ffmpeg to transcode a DVB-T recording

2005-07-03 Thread Mike Ryan
Hi

I use ffmpeg to transcode my dvb-t recordings to watch on a PSP and I'm in the
UK. Everything works fine apart from anything I record from Channel 4. For some
reason, there is no sound when I play it back on the PSP. I believe the problem
is that ffmpeg seems to think there's two sound channels - it's selecting the
primary one. Playback on MythTV is no problem. Here's a sample of the output
from
ffmpeg:

ffmpeg version 0.4.9-pre1, build 4756, Copyright (c) 2000-2004 Fabrice Bellard
  configuration:  --enable-faac
  built on Jun 17 2005 16:02:27, gcc: 3.4.3 20050227 (Red Hat 3.4.3-22.fc3)
Input #0, mpeg, from
'/mythtv/recordings/1008_2005063020_2005063021.nuv':
  Duration: 00:59:55.1, start: 1697.474022, bitrate: 2893 kb/s
  Stream #0.0[0x1e0]: Video: mpeg2video, yuv420p, 704x576, 25.00 fps, 1 kb/s
  Stream #0.1[0x1c1]: Audio: mp2, 48000 Hz, mono, 64 kb/s
  Stream #0.2[0x1c0]: Audio: mp2, 48000 Hz, stereo, 192 kb/s
Output #0, psp, to '/mythtv/video/M4V10003.MP4':
  Stream #0.0: Video: mpeg4, yuv420p, 320x240, 29.97 fps, q=2-31, 512 kb/s
  Stream #0.1: Audio: aac, 24000 Hz, stereo, 32 kb/s
Stream mapping:
  Stream #0.0 -> #0.0
  Stream #0.1 -> #0.1

For any other channel, the larger bitrate audio channel comes first, ie:
Input #0, mpeg, from
'/mythtv/recordings/1073_20050628191500_20050628195800.nuv':

Re: [mythtv-users] Re: Archos AV400 Portable

2005-04-26 Thread Mike Ryan
Thanks for the responses.
Could this be added to a Wiki somewhere? I'm sure there's going to be a lot of
interest in this particularly with the PSP coming out. It'd be nice to have
something like a portable page, with a picture of each device and instructions
for how to get from .nuv to whatever. I guarantee it'll save a whole mountain
of bandwidth on this forum as wel 8-)

Quoting Byron Poland <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Hi,
I have an ffmpeg command that I use to down size video for the Sony
PSP.  the oddity with the psp is that it requires audio to be in mp4
format.  you need a relatively recent build of ffmpeg, but the
following works:
ffmpeg -y -i INFILE -bitexact -f psp -s 320x240 -r 29.97 -b 768
-acodec aac -ac 2 -ar 24000 -ab 32 M4V10001.MP4
I haven't been successful converting to a wide screen format, but the
psp has a full screen option and since it is a widescreen natively,
the widescreen content looks fine.  one thing to note though is that
even if my source file has a frame rate of 24.xx if I don't change it
to 29.97 for the psp I get major audio sync problems.
I'm able to get an hour show sans commercials onto a 256mb memory
stick with pretty good quality.  I believe 768 is the highest bitrate
the psp will accept.

Hi
Has anyone got exporting files for viewing on a Portable device working? I've
got an Archos AV400 and currently transfer the nuv files over to 
Windows before
converting them. Obviously, this is a bit of a faff and I'm sure 
there must be
some way to do it in Linux

Thanks in advance for any suggestions
Kind Regards
Mike
Hi
Nobody responded to my original request, so I've been doing a lot of playing
around with all the options available, such as mkmovie, nuvexport to divx and
xvid, and also playing with all the various tools available on Linux such as
mencoder, ffmpeg, etc
A lot of the methods I tried all ended up with similar results, but I 
was always
left with a lot of progressive scan issues on the portable, and quite 
often the
sound would be a second or so delayed (this may be because of a separate
problem I seem to be having with my dvb card skipping after about 4:30 minutes
on every recording at the moment for some reason I haven't quite worked out.
Also, some of the more satisfactory results required enormous amounts of
processing time on an AMD Athlon(tm) 64 3200+ Processor and processing through
two separate programs.

Anyway, the reason for the post was to say that it looks as though I've struck
gold. The following command gives me fantastic results every time with 
no audio
snyncing problems whatsoever. Also, this encodes direct from the Myth nuv file
directly to the avi in one go. On my system it encodes about 25fps which is
realtime for the uk, also I'm not sure if I should be expecting a better
compression ratio - ie, a 1.8Gb file compresses down to about 480Mb

mencoder -oac mp3lame -vf scale=352:192 -ovc xvid -xvidencopts
pass=2:bitrate=900 -o /mythtv/video/Jamies\ School\ Dinners.avi
/mythtv/recordings/1008_2005030921_2005030922.nuv
I hope this helps anyone out in a similar position to myself.
Incidentally, does anyone know whether mythweb is going to be updated to allow
you to queue jobs remotely? It's be well handy if I could queue a job up to do
this.

[mythtv-users] Mythtranscode problem after mplayer upgrade

2005-04-22 Thread Mike Ryan
Hi

I ran apt-get upgrade a couple of days ago and saw the mplayer package was
updated. After this, I found that Mythvideo playback wasn't working correctly -
the video would play, but the bottom third was missing. No big problem, as I
changed the system to use xine for playback. However, I now have another issue
which I think is related. Neither nuvexport or mkmovie (to DivX or Xvid) are
working anymore. After trying various things, I think the problem is related to
the audio import on mythtranscode. Here's the output from mkmovie, if anyone
has any suggestions. I'm runing FC2 with the 2.6.10-1.770_FC2 Kernel and MythTV
0.17. The mplayer was upgraded to 1.0-43.99 (I would have downgraded but it
doesn't appear to be something that easy to do with apt-get.) If it's relevant,
the system is recording from two AverMedia DVB-T 771T cards. Normal playback of
these files is no problem

Thanks in advance for any suggestions

Mike

Strange one this. I have a system with a GeForce 4200 Ti card. I'm using the
DVI-out to a Sagem 45" High-Def DLP screen. That all works fine 
until I try to
watch anything like Live TV or any of the recordings. I see the first frame,
and it hangs. But, what's really odd, is that if I Alt-Tab to

the video then carries on as normal.

Any suggestions?
Using mplayer from the command line works as expected, as I don't

I should've said, when I hook the system up using the standard VGA out, this

Thanks for that - seemed to move me a little bit further. I now have all the
latest packages installed and am running from the stock Fedora kernel.

However, apt-get still complains about an insane number of unmet dependencies if
I try apt-get install mythtv-suite, so I didn't pursue that line. 

I also tried yum install mythtv-suite. This came up with a number of messages
about "Processing Dependencies" (which I think is normal), but then craps out
with:
--> Finished Dependency Resolution
Error: Missing Dependency: qt-MySQL is needed by package libmyth
Error: Missing Dependency: perl(Term::ReadKey) >= 2.14 is needed by package
perl-Term-ProgressBar
Error: Missing Dependency: perl(Term::ReadKey) is needed by package perl-XMLTV
Error: Missing Dependency: kakasi-dict is needed by package perl-Text-Kakasi
Error: Missing Dependency: libkakasi.so.2()(64bit) is needed by package
perl-Text-Kakasi

Anyone got any suggestions?

Cheers

2005-03-05 Thread Mike Ryan
Just come across this on Bugzilla:
http://bugzilla.atrpms.net/show_bug.cgi?id=334#c2

I assume this is still the case? If I do a manual installation of MythTV from
the RPM's http://apt.physik.fu-berlin.de/fedora/3/en/x86_64/RPMS.at-good/ does
anyone have a list of all dependencies somwhere?

Cheers

[mythtv-users] AMD64 FC3 MythTV 0.17 installation

2005-03-05 Thread Mike Ryan
Hi

I've just built a new system around an AMD 64 3200 processor. Did a new
installation of Redhat Fedora Core 3 (64 bit distro) and was then hoping to
follow Jarrod's installation guide.

So, did the installation of atrpms using:
rpm -Uvh
http://atrpms.net/dist/fc3/atrpms-kickstart/atrpms-kickstart-25-1.rhfc3.at.x86_64.rpm

and then edited /etc/apt/sources.list to change 

rpm http://ayo.freshrpms.net fedora/linux/3/i386 core updates
rpm http://apt.physik.fu-berlin.de fedora/3/en/i386 at-stable

to

rpm http://ayo.freshrpms.net fedora/linux/3/x86_64 core updates
rpm http://apt.physik.fu-berlin.de fedora/3/en/x86_64 at-stable

I then do apt-get update and apt-get upgrade and get the following:
Reading Package Lists...
Building Dependency Tree...
You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  4Suite: Depends: libc.so.6()(64bit)
  Depends: libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.2.5)(64bit)
  Depends: libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.3)(64bit)
  Depends: libpthread.so.0()(64bit)
  Depends: libpthread.so.0(GLIBC_2.2.5)(64bit)
  GConf2#2.8.1-1: Depends: libatk-1.0.so.0()(64bit)
  Depends: libc.so.6()(64bit)
  Depends: libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.2.5)(64bit)
  Depends: libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.3)(64bit)
  Depends: libdl.so.2()(64bit)
  Depends: libglib-2.0.so.0()(64bit)
  Depends: libgmodule-2.0.so.0()(64bit)

  Depends: libpthread.so.0(GLIBC_2.2.5)(64bit)
  Depends: libxml2.so.2()(64bit)
  Depends: libz.so.1()(64bit)
  HelixPlayer: Depends: libbluecurve.so
   Depends: libgdk-x11-2.0.so.0
   Depends: libgdk_pixbuf-2.0.so.0
   Depends: libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0
  ImageMagick#6.0.7.1-4: Depends: libbz2.so.1
 Depends: libjpeg.so.62
 Depends: libtiff.so.3
  ImageMagick-c++: Depends: libgcc_s.so.1
   Depends: libgcc_s.so.1(GCC_3.0)
  MAKEDEV: Depends: libc.so.6()(64bit)
   Depends: libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.2.5)(64bit)
   Depends: libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.3)(64bit)
   Depends: libselinux.so.1()(64bit)
etc, etc (this goes on for a long time)

Should I be doing this another way for an AMD-64 installation?

Thanks in advance 

Mike
