| [00:47] <Shadow__X> no ask away | |
| [00:47] <Shadow__X> now* | |
| [00:48] <holyscott> Question, I have tried 2 different ways to get mythtv working, ubuntu package, and mythbuntu live cd | |
| [00:49] <holyscott> should this be working right away or does the live cd take some configuration still? | |
| [00:49] <Shadow__X> holyscott, mythbuntu live cd cant be used as a frontend | |
| [00:49] <Shadow__X> or to install mythtv | |
| [00:49] <Shadow__X> it wont replace a mythbackend | |
| [00:50] <holyscott> all I want to see is it running before I commit to a total reinstall | |
| [00:50] <holyscott> my card is on the list so it should be supported | |
| [00:50] <Shadow__X> so what running | |
| [00:50] <holyscott> just fairly new to linux and no clue about sql stuff. | |
| [00:50] <Shadow__X> you need to install mythtv for it to work | |
| [00:50] <Shadow__X> holyscott, right the mythbuntu live cd is a great place to start | |
| [00:50] <Shadow__X> you install it | |
| [00:50] <holyscott> its a pinnacle 800i hd pci | |
| [00:51] <Shadow__X> run it and configure hard ware and your on your way | |
| [00:51] <Shadow__X> i have that card | |
| [00:51] <Shadow__X> its good for digital | |
| [00:51] <holyscott> any mthtv program, seetup, backend I run, all gives errors abotu sql database not connected | |
| [00:52] <Shadow__X> on what install are you talking about | |
| [00:52] <holyscott> last night I tried on linux mint kde rc1 dling the mint tv package | |
| [00:52] <holyscott> the dl told me to set up a root password | |
| [00:52] <holyscott> but nothing worked afterwards | |
| [00:53] <holyscott> today, I tryed setting it up while on the live cd | |
| [00:53] <holyscott> on the live cd I did see the configuration menu options | |
| [00:53] <holyscott> but nothing when it went to setup mythtv. | |
| [00:54] <holyscott> the card quit working in windows 7 and would be shocked to have it in linux | |
| [00:55] <Shadow__X> holyscott, first to use and have a much easier setup take the live cd | |
| [00:55] <Shadow__X> install mythbuntu | |
| [00:55] <Shadow__X> reboot machine | |
| [00:55] <Shadow__X> run the newly installed mythbuntu os | |
| [00:55] <Shadow__X> update | |
| [00:55] <Shadow__X> then run mythbackend setup | |
| [00:56] <holyscott> has to be installed, wont work running off a cd? | |
| [00:56] <holyscott> better to be usiing 8.10 or 9.04 alpa 6 or wait a few days for new beta 9.04? | |
| [00:57] <Shadow__X> holyscott, yes you need to install it the backend to my knowledge needs to be installed | |
| [00:57] <Shadow__X> the live cd can only be used as a frontend | |
| [00:57] <holyscott> ok | |
| [00:57] <Shadow__X> or to install | |
| [00:57] <Shadow__X> i would recommend 8.10 | |
| [00:58] <Shadow__X> you want something stable | |
| [00:58] <Shadow__X> alpha is for testing and bug fixes | |
| [00:58] <holyscott> would I have to do anything with mysql or roots or passwords, or just the setup program? | |
| [01:00] <Shadow__X> when installing from live cd that is taken care for you | |
| [01:00] <holyscott> awesome | |
| [01:00] <holyscott> once I have it installed and running, it is safe to install kde or gnome over it? | |
| [01:02] <Shadow__X> uh i wouldnt because its meant to just work along | |
| [01:02] <Shadow__X> unless you are going to be running a frontend somewhere else | |
| [01:02] <Shadow__X> i mean yeah you could just depends on how strong your system is if it will handle it well | |
| [01:02] <Shadow__X> normal workload with mysql and mythbackend | |
| [01:02] <holyscott> I have a modern gaming pc | |
| [01:02] <holyscott> 4 gigs | |
| [01:02] <Shadow__X> ah alright | |
| [01:02] <Shadow__X> cpu | |
| [01:03] <Shadow__X> ? | |
| [01:03] <holyscott> 3gig core2du | |
| [01:03] <holyscott> 8800gt | |
| [01:06] <holyscott> thanks so much for the help | |
| [01:13] <Shadow__X> yup | |
| [01:13] <Shadow__X> so yeah do that i will most likely be here i have no issue helping you set it up | |
| [01:13] <Shadow__X> i really like mythtv | |
| [01:25] <holyscott> does it use alot of cpu while recording or runniing? | |
| [01:32] <hads> Depends what you're doing | |
| [01:33] <holyscott> what is your system? | |

| [04:56] <newmythh> If I have multiple capture cards for Digital and Analog, does myth automaticall switch between them when I press the channel up button, or do I have to tell it? | |
