MythTV setup | blog.spiceweasel.dk
Since I have plans to move around a bit on my stuff on various domains, I have decided to move my MythTV guide / description over here, so I can hopefully get dugg.dk released to a few other projects.
Hardware: * Via EPIA EN15000G - A mini-ITX motherboard with a 1.5GHz Via C7 processor. * WinTV pyridin-150 MCE - HAUPPAUGE cheapest analog TV tuner card, but with hardware accelerated MPEG encoding. * Silverstone LC09 - Nice little mini-ITX median center cabinet, with a 60W power supply.
I ran into trouble and difficulty to get the latest MythDora to act as I wanted, so I chose to install Ubuntu. This has proven to be a really good idea, it takes a little longer to get all the packages bathroom floor plans installed, but tilgengæld I've got a better system. I just suddenly easy access to eg. sensor monitoring, something I missed when my box gets a little warm. I have also gained a better understanding of exactly how MythTV function, and since I know Debian better than Fedora, so it facilitates the administration part.
After studying MythTV and mini-ITX combination a little on the internet, I chose, despite the warnings that I would use the VGA connector on my Samsung TV, rather than messing with composite signal from either the TV tuner card or motherboard. This resulted in that I, as promised was punished when I would install Mythbuntu, no X and thus no installation. Convinced that this may be a problem related to Mythbuntu bathroom floor plans I downloaded KnoppMyth, same result. Various forums warn that the various Linux installations, in combination with Vias EPIA systems can not automatically find the right solution for the screen, which was exactly what I experienced. bathroom floor plans A colleague had solved the problem by using the composite bathroom floor plans output on the motherboard, this worked even for me. In the old days, when I first played with Linux that we had no such problems, we installed bathroom floor plans in console mode, not all the graphic nonsense, but it's bathroom floor plans enough unfortunately the young people want. My plan was therefore to install Debian, then install MythTV from apt. Before that, I decided, however, to give MythDora bathroom floor plans a chance. MythDora have a slight advantage as Mythbuntu and KnoppMyth not, OpenChrome drivers for Via graphics card included. After approximately half an hour was MythDora installed and ready to configure MythTV.
MythTV is a little lacking in usability during configuration, evidence suggests that it is better if you sit in the US, but I do not so. The remote was easy, I exchange the one included bathroom floor plans with my TV tuner card, a standard USB2 / IR Microsoft Media Center remote control, you choose your remote control has a menu and complete. TV tuner card is known only to work with MythTV, so it caused no problems. bathroom floor plans Then comes a lot of menus, with information I do not know what is, program guide I jumped about when I mentioned is not in the United States and therefore must clear the detail manually later. bathroom floor plans The only thing I did was to ask further MythTV bathroom floor plans to automatically bathroom floor plans scan the antenna signal through bathroom floor plans the channels. Now it is possible to watch TV, pause live TV, and play various media files, excellent.
For a program guide in a decent quality, I have chosen to pay ONTV $ 89, - for a year's access to a XMLTV subscription. It struck me as being easier and more stable than fighting with a script that grabs program information by parsing any website and much faster than for example. TDC TV grapper script that I otherwise was recommended.
Here after I took MythTVs web interface bathroom floor plans to associate the channels with the correct IDs from XMLTV file. In the longer term, should I have made a small script that retrieve XMLTV file once a day and loads it into MythTV, so I do not have to do it manually, but it is a minor task.
The only problem I now have is that unfortunately gets very warm in the small Silverstone cabinet, in fact so hot that the machine becomes unstable. I hope to be able to solve the problem with one or two small blowers mounted above the air vents at the processor. So far I have to live with that there is a lid on the cabinet.
One should then have channel icons, so you can better see where you zapper go. Unfortunately I could not just find someone who had done the work for me, so I had to make a Danish iconmap.xml file. I have included the following channels, but it is easy to add more: * DR1 DR2 * * * TV2, TV2 Zulu, TV2 Charlie * * * 3 TV3 Plus * National Geographic Channel
Hey there - fine enough guide. but you lack when to put you much into things. Having MythTV setup on channel bathroom floor plans icons, you can automatically set it to operate bathroom floor plans automatically, then you can spent EIT rather ONTV - which is the one sent by along with the signal! The script around your mythfilldatabase is actually bathroom floor plans easy enough. Copy the lin
