[mythtv-users] Re: MyIRBlaster - Myth Issues Only??

2005-10-26 Thread Scott S.

Hello,

Thanks for your all your responses. I am running the script from the 
command line as my mythtv user. I tried putting in the clear key twice 
before sending the channel change and it still works from the command 
line just fine but going through Myth it seems to have the same 
problems. Do you put the clear key before or after emitting the digits? 
I would say mine works through Myth more around 25% of the time as well, 
are there any other tricks out there to try?


Thank You,

Scott

[mythtv-users] MyIRBlaster - Myth Issues Only??

2005-10-26 Thread Scott S.

Hello,

   I've recently switch TV providers (because the company I work for is 
offering TV services now) and we have Amino AmiNet110's for set top 
boxes. I'm using a MyBlaster, the serial one from my tv store (mytvsore 
dot com). I use the MyBlaster.pl that you can download for use with the 
MyBlaster and I've found that is I run the MyBlaster.pl from the command 
prompt it changes the channel great, but when I am in Myth and it tries 
to change the channel using the same script it fails the majority of the 
time. There's typically three things could happen when it fails, one is 
it could do nothing. It's rare but it's happened a couple of times), 
another is that it misses a digit (usually at the beginning or middle of 
the channel number), and the third is that it may repeat a number (for 
instance 8 turns into 88). I'm not sure why this would happen in just 
Myth. I've used TVtime and XawTV to test the channel changing from the 
command line, and that works flawlessly, changing the channel while Myth 
is running and watching live TV also works flawlessly. It only fails 
when Myth itself tries to change  the channel with the MyBlaster.pl script.


I've played around with the timing in the MyBlaster.pl script and have 
re trained the MyBlaster with the IR codes over a dozen times, nothing 
seems to change how it acts tho, it works from the command line great 
but acts really weird when Myth goes to change the channel. The other 
thing I have done is made my own channelchange.pl and had it call the 
MyBlaster script to send the raw IR code to the MyBlaster script, that 
hasn't helped either though. Has anyone seen this? Or have any other 
ideas on a fix? Any help would be great.


Thank You,

Scott

[mythtv-users] Podcasting and Myth

2005-10-07 Thread Scott S.

Hello,

   I'm not sure if this is the correct place for this question but is 
there a projects out there to make a plug-in for MythTV to download 
podcasts into it based on RSS feeds? I think this would be a really cool 
feature and could be used for vlogs as well, I'm just curious if it's 
out there already or not.


Thank You,

Scooty

[mythtv-users] Language? Listings? and Buttons?

2005-05-04 Thread Scott S.
Hello,
   I have 3 issues with my MythTV box right now and I think they all 
started around daylight savings time, but that's most likely a coincidence.

Here are the issues:
   1. I upgraded the MythTV 0.18 and somehow my language changed, I'm 
not sure what the language is, but it's not English. Anyone know how to 
get it back to English?
  
   2. The problem I was trying to fix when I upgraded to 0.18 was that 
my listings seem to be off about at least an hour, I'm guessing it might 
be just an hour but I'm not really sure, still trying to track that 
down. My time on my box is correct and I have the correct timezone 
settings, not sure why it's off. Anyone run across this?

   3. The buttons on my MythTV box seem to have issues. The Next button 
in particular if I am on it and press space or enter it presses the 
button in but doesn't go to the next screen it just sits there. If I am 
on another box that isn't a button and press enter then it will go on to 
the next screen. The only issue with this is the exit screen that asks 
if you want to exit mythfrontend both of those buttons don't either take 
you back to mythfrontend or escape out of that window if you chose no 
they just sit there. The escape button does work on that screen though.

There's my issues, now here's my set up. I'm running Fedora Core 3 and 
keeping it up to date. The frontend and the backend are run on the same 
machine. It's a yum install of myth from atrpms which is what I used on 
0.17 which was working fine until the listings got about an hour off or 
so. If anyone has some work arounds or knows how to fix any of these 
problems I would be very grateful to have that info.

Thank You,
Scott
