Okay, I'm kinda tired of this sort of troll bait. <START RANT> I've been running with MythTV for close to 2 years now, I don't experience your issues (and my setup is considerably more complicated then what you describe - believe me). The fact of the matter is to set something like this you need to do some learning, you need to tinker, and you need to restrain yourself from pissing off the FREE support people that DONATE their time to help you.
If you can't install it properly - I will try to help you - if you blame the app, the developers, the weather, or anybody other than yourself - please consider PAYING for another system (one that works for you), and leave the happy and amazed users and developers of this FREE system alone. <END RANT> David -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of todd Bailey Sent: Monday, August 22, 2005 10:55 PM To: Discussion about mythtv Subject: [mythtv-users] one problem after another I just can't believe just how unstable this app is. this time while trying to watch tv via the ui, I get 2 seconds of sound and video then the display freezes and no sound. about a minute later blue screen eventually I get the menu. sort of reminds me of Win Nt [the early days] :) here is a capture of the error messages as it happens: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ mythfrontend --version 0.18.1.20050523-1 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ mythfrontend 2005-08-22 19:51:46.324 New DB connection, total: 1 Total desktop width=1280, height=1024, numscreens=1 2005-08-22 19:51:46.341 Using screen 0, 1280x1024 at 0,0 2005-08-22 19:51:46.350 mythfrontend version: 0.18.1.20050523-1 www.mythtv.org 2005-08-22 19:51:46.351 Enabled verbose msgs : important general 2005-08-22 19:51:47.129 Switching to square mode (Iulius) mythtv: could not connect to socket mythtv: Connection refused lirc_init failed for mythtv, see preceding messages 2005-08-22 19:51:47.731 Joystick disabled. 2005-08-22 19:51:47.814 Registering Internal as a media playback plugin. 2005-08-22 19:51:47.858 Registering MythDVD DVD Media Handler as a media handler 2005-08-22 19:51:47.860 Registering MythDVD VCD Media Handler as a media handler 2005-08-22 19:51:48.209 Registering MythMusic Media Handler as a media handler 2005-08-22 19:51:48.339 New DB connection, total: 2 SIP listening on IP Address 192.168.0.10:5060 NAT address 192.168.0.10 SIP: Cannot register; proxy, username or password not set 2005-08-22 19:51:50.817 Connecting to backend server: 127.0.0.1:6543 (try 1 of 5) 2005-08-22 19:51:50.825 Using protocol version 15 2005-08-22 19:51:50.869 Using protocol version 15 2005-08-22 19:51:53.194 Opening audio device '/dev/dsp'. 2005-08-22 19:51:53.195 Opening OSS audio device '/dev/dsp'. 2005-08-22 19:51:53.239 Using XV port 168 2005-08-22 19:51:53.588 Realtime priority would require SUID as root. 2005-08-22 19:51:53.609 Changing from None to WatchingLiveTV 2005-08-22 19:51:53.697 Video timing method: USleep with busy wait 2005-08-22 19:51:54.568 prebuffering pause 2005-08-22 19:52:13.616 ReadStringList timeout (quick).
