[mythtv-users] How to compile mainserver.cpp?
Hello all, I'm running KnoppMyth 0.16 and would like to apply the patch to mainserver.cpp which fixes the infamous unreclaimed deleted disk space issue, found here: http://cvs.mythtv.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/mythtv/programs/mythbackend/mainserver.cpp?r1=1.155r2=1.156 Since the patch was only two lines, I manually edited mainserver.cpp. Then I did the following, which failed miserably: $ cd /usr/src/r4v5_src/mythtv-0.16/src/mythtv-0.16 $ ./configure Please note that these settings only deal with libavcodec, not MythTV. CPU x86 Big Endian no MMX enabled yes Vector Builtins yes Creating config.mak and config.h config.h is unchanged $ qmake mythtv.pro $ make . . . {standard input}:447: Error: symbol `m_drop_x' is already defined {standard input}:453: Error: symbol `m_drop_y' is already defined {standard input}:459: Error: symbol `m_force_x' is already defined {standard input}:465: Error: symbol `m_force_y' is already defined {standard input}:690: Error: symbol `scrollPosition' is already defined make[2]: *** [dialogbox.o] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/r4v5_src/mythtv-0.16/src/mythtv-0.16/libs/libmyth' make[1]: *** [sub-libmyth] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/r4v5_src/mythtv-0.16/src/mythtv-0.16/libs' make: *** [sub-libs] Error 2 $ I guess I have two questions: 1) What did I screw up by doing this? 2) What's the right way to do this i.e. recompile mainserver.cpp and rebuild mythbackend?

Re: [mythtv-users] is my processor to blame? (lockups, problems with FF and REW)
Thom, I have a similar setup to yours - 80+300gb LVM filesystem, stable with one tuner, backend locks up/crashes daily since adding a second tuner. How do you determine if bad IRQ's are the problem and how does one go about researching/fixing this type of thing? thanks, Russell Date: Mon, 28 Feb 2005 22:47:26 -0500 From: Thom Paine [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [mythtv-users] is my processor to blame? (lockups, problems with FF and REW) To: Discussion about mythtv mythtv-users@mythtv.org Message-ID: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Mine seemed stable before I upgraded to dual tuners. But I didn't have much of a chance to test it as I didn't get many shows recorded before I got excited and added more cards. I also added a 200G hard drive, and it's LVM, so granted I made alot of changes at once, but I can see mine be due to IRQ's. -- -=/Thom ___ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users

Macrovision plans to unveil technology to block 97% of software used to duplicate discs. Assuming it actually works, then 100% of the people will use the 3% of the software that isn't blocked. ___ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users

Michael, That's excellent news. Please let us know when the HOWTO is available. Thanks, Russell Date: Sun, 30 Jan 2005 22:05:26 -0500 From: Michael J.

[mythtv-users] imdb metadata getting clobbered by frontend
I'm running one front+backend box (running KnoppMyth R4V5) and one frontend-only box (XBox). I rip DVDs on the frontend because my backend has no DVD drive yet, and watch them on both machines. So far so good, until I rename the videos and pretty them up with imdb metadata and poster pics using video setup. On the backend box I can rename the video files ripped from DVD and successfully grab the imdb info and poster images. The menu has the movie poster icons and it looks great - as long as I watch the videos on the backend box. However, when I bring up the video menu on the frontend XBox, every video's metadata displays as if they were just ripped - that is, all the metadata for every ripped DVD gets wiped out (reverts to the default ugly file names, loses the imdb number, notes, and poster filename). If I do the opposite, i.e. grab the imdb data on the Xbox, just the opposite happens, i.e. looks ok on the Xbox until viewing on the KnoppMyth box wipes out the metadata. In either case, the metadata is clobbered on both machines - not just the one which first triggers the erasure. Try to watch a video on the backend machine and the imdb info is back to default values as if the DVDs were just ripped. I'm going to have a look at the MySQL logs tonight - meanwhile any tips or pointers on what might be happening here would be appreciated. -Russ ___ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
Re: [mythtv-users] XBOX
The essential files are still there, just in a different place: The readme is at http://bit.blkbk.com/bittorrent/README.txt The installer is at http://bit.blkbk.com/bittorrent/mythtv-xbox.0.4.4.tar.gz Note, when following the readme, change the wget command from: wget http://bit.blkbk.com/mythtv-xbox.0.4.4.tar.gz -to- http://bit.blkbk.com/bittorrent/mythtv-xbox.0.4.4.tar.gz and it should work. I say should because I haven't needed to do another XBox install yet. Good luck, Russell The MythTV frontend has been ported to the XBox. I would normally direct you to the homepage of that project, however, it has been down for some time now ___ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users

Check out http://www.silentpcreview.com My goal is to build a PVR that¹s not much (if any) larger than an average VCR, has the power necessary to really do the job, but also has low noise and doesn¹t generate excessive heat. -Russell ___ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
