[gentoo-dev] mythtv

[Gregg]

Are there any plans already in the works for a mythtv ebuild (and its
dependancies like xmltv)?  0.7 just came out and it would be nice to see
it in there.  It is by far the best PVR solution in the open source world
right now.  The new version even supports editing the video's its saved
and removing the commercials.

Anyone who didnt know, http://www.mythtv.org

I have a working ebuild, but I have not installed xmltv yet, and thus I
haven't made it work yet...

If you wanna test... try the attachment.

I have just changed version number to 0.7, what I have installed at the
moment is 0.6

Please, change the following line

	for i in ${S}/libs/libNuppelVideo/examples/Makefile ${S}/settings.pro
	
to

	for i in ${S}/settings.pro

since those examples are gone in this version.

At home I have only a dialup connection, and I won't have access to a CD
burner before monday. If nobody tried until then, maybe I will, if I find
the time.

You don't need a CD burner for it, just a TV card.  You do need net acess to 
get your local tv guide.  Getting the local tv guide is handled by xmltv 
which also in bugs waiting.  Any comments or improvements would also be 
welcome.

And the package and all its dependencies will get on my harddisk using
IP over telepathy?

Would be nice,

It ocurred to me last night Gentoo Media Center LiveCD based on this
would be an extremely good demonstration of Linux's abilities. Have
hardware autodetection preconfigure the video inputs based on what's
available (PCI or USB), and have it launch MythTV on startup, and you'd
have something that gave Windows XP Media Center a run for its money.

I believe there has been some discussion of a bootable mythtv disc on 
the mythtv-user mailing list.  I don't know what distribution they were 
thinking of using, but you might want to touch base with them.

Checking the online mailinglist it seems that they were considering a 
stripped down 
version of knoppix.  Although its not clear is anyone is actually doing 
anything rather 
than just talking.

I think it is a very cool idea, unfortunatly I don't have the hardware 
necessary to help.

I made a basic one with Gentoo a few months ago but had some X problems and I 
also run the cvs version so I was out of date as soon as I built it.  The 
latest release is pretty cool though and I wouldn't mind helping out.  The 
only problems would be the database and country specific options.

Well, the idea of emerge-and-run doesn't hold for me. Whichever of the executables I run I get more or less the same thing:

cuardin@quad:/usr/local/portage;)mythfilldatabase 
QSqlDatabase warning: QMYSQL3 driver not loaded
QSqlDatabase: available drivers: 
QSqlDatabase warning: QMYSQL3 driver not loaded
QSqlDatabase: available drivers: 
Unable to connect to database!
No error type from QSqlError?  Strange...
couldn't open db

Now, I have never used SQL, so I am sure I have to perform some magic to get it running, but as there seems to be no man pages for the myth package, I can't really find out where to start. IT merged nicely though.....

Sounds like you upgraded mysql from 3.x.x to 4.x.x without rebuilding QT.
Re-emerge qt and your problems should be over. (please note, I'm saying
*should* not *will*) :-).

Sounds like the QT built before mysql is installed problem.  There is some 
pretty good documentation here.

OK, I definitely think this should be mentioned in an obvious place. Perhaps in a post_emerge() or so.
