Fantastic :) that was it. I downgraded from svn to 0.18.1 because of the
prebuffer problems and the recording group was set to livetv not default.

And there was a slight error on my part, i ment sheduled recordings not
livetv ooops :)

Are you sure they're not in a recording group that doesn't show up
when you view the default recording group? If you left-arrow off the
redordings and onto the recording group and press menu then you can
select "All Programs" and then see if they show up.

LiveTV doesn't work that way in 0.18.1 and below.  You would have to 
upgrade to SVN to get that functionality.  In 0.18.1, if you watch 
LiveTV, you lose the recording as soon as you exit LiveTV.  If you press 
"R" it should /begin/ to record the program as a normal recording, but 
starting from the point you pressed "R".

When you eventually go to SVN/0.19 (or, in case you don't know what 
version you're actually running), by default LiveTV doesn't show in "All 
Recordings" because a bunch of people got all worried when they saw 
them.  You can either
a) switch to the LiveTV group
b) disable hiding of LiveTV in "All Recordings"

Show 'LiveTV' recordings when using ""All Programs" filter
If this setting is disabled, LiveTV recordings will only be visible via 
the special "LiveTV" Recording Group.

[mythtv-users] Recorded programs

2006-01-24 Thread Stuart Fox

Hi all

Im having a small problem with recorded livetv program, basically they're
not showing up in the "View recordings" bit, the files are on the
filesystem and the show up in the "Previously" recorded bit.
Im running 0.18.1 on a lfs system. Its probably not a hardware issue but
my system is:- dual xeons, 1gm ram, 5x250gb sata and 3 dvb nova-t's. (over
spec'd but it does other things to)

Cheers in advance

[mythtv-users] Recorded programs don't show in Watching Records list

2006-01-21 Thread Ketan Patel
I'm having the same problem.  I recently rebuilt my
mythbackend computer from scratch (OS and Mythtv).  The
MythTV installation is via the ATRPM repos.  I'm very
certain that  the frontend and backend are the same
version.  However, the frontend running on the newly
installed system refuses to show any recording in the Media
Library.  These are all new recording.  I 100% certain that
they're there: recording files of the appropriate size
exist; they are properly cataloged in MythWeb; finally and
more importantly the recordings are accessible thru the
Media Library on my remote frontend.  The remote backend
computer runs the same version of Mythtv frontend installed
from the same repos.

Any hints on how to fix this would be greatly appreciated.
Regards
KP

[mythtv-users] Recorded programs don't show in Watching Records list

2006-01-15 Thread Daniel Savard
I am having a strange problem. The programs were actually
recorded  in the filesystem and the database records were
partially updated. When I tried to watch the programs, they didn't show
in the list of recorded programs in the GUI. However, they are in the
database and the files are in the filesystem. The directory entry in
the settings table is correct as well.

After looking in recorded table I noticed the file names were not in
the basename column. So, I added them manually. The files are having
the .nuv extension. I then retried to watch the programs and they still
don't show up in the list. I looked again at the recorded table and
noticed the filesize was not correct as well. I updated the fields
manually again. Still don't show up in the list.

In the oldrecorded the programs are there as well as in the
recordedprogram table. So, what is going on with this? I noticed other
programs are having .mpg extensions. Should I change the .nuv to .mpg
in the database and in the filenames?

I even ran the mythcommflag --file file_name --rebuild script which completed without errors.

Any hints would be appreciated.

Everything in the mythweb directory is owned by the same user and

Yes, as I said create an edl list. It works I just tried it.

The program I already created the cut list in has the following cutlist
in the database:

0-19681 108330-115380 - this means cut from frame 0 to frame 19681 and
from frame 108330 to frame 115380

This is obtained from a search of the database, the cutlist field in the
table recorded.

The filename is 

1051_20050708115800_20050708130500.nuv so I made an edl called 
1051_20050708115800_20050708130500.nuv.edl containing:

0 787.2 0
4333.2 4615.2 0

This means cut from zero seconds to 787.2 seconds and from 4333.2 secs
to 4615.2 secs


numbers were calculated as follows:

19681/25 = 787.2
108330/25= 433.2 etc

I use PAL so it is 25 frames per sec. NTSC is something weird like
29.97, but 30 should be accurate enough.

then playing with 

mplayer 1051_20050708115800_20050708130500.nuv -edl \
1051_20050708115800_20050708130500.nuv.edl

plays with the cuts.

I did  this manually as a trial. It would be easy enough to script.

I think if you transcode the file it will cut according to the cutlist,
and you end up with the cut and advert-less transcoded file. It'll
probably be transcoded to a more manageable file with a tighter codec
like mpeg-4. 

Thanks for the suggestion.  I already record in MPEG-4 (bttv capture) so

I think if you transcode the file it will cut according to the cutlist,
and you end up with the cut and advert-less transcoded file. It'll
probably be transcoded to a more manageable file with a tighter codec
like mpeg-4. 

However if you don't want to transcode:

The internal video player in mythvideo is actually external - mplayer or
whatever you configure it to be.

mplayer will certainly play nuv files as created by tv recording in
mplayer. it will also skip using edit decision lists:

http://www.mplayerhq.hu/DOCS/HTML/en/edl.html

now mythtv seems to store it's edl's in the database as frame numbers
instead of seconds, but the conversion is pretty simple (but dependent
on PAL vs NTCS frame rates.)

So you could pretty simply make a script to creat an mplayer edl list
from the frame numbers in the database and export it to the mythvideo
directory along with the nuv file. I would name it the same as the nuv
file with an additional sufix of .edl  and call mplayer with the normal
parameters plus "-edl %s.edl"

I haven't tried this, but might do so tonight.
