  <smartboyhw> Yay
  <tgm4883> bobweaver, pong
  <bobweaver> well hello there :)
  <bobweaver> I was wondering about 2 things if you have the time
  <tgm4883> yep, shoot
  <bobweaver> 1 ) scope is not reading tv shows just wanted to let you know that
  <tgm4883> hmm
  <tgm4883> ok
  <bobweaver> 2)  this is more a mythtv thing but I can not get movies to get fan art
  <tgm4883> so for #1, it should be getting TV shows
  <bobweaver> I rm all torrevted ones and still nothing named them the way that they should be and still nothing
  <bobweaver> but
  <bobweaver> I am getting back all the info for the movies just no fanart
  <bobweaver> myth tv
  <bobweaver> ^
  <bobweaver> let me make sure that I have the latestest scope brb
  <tgm4883> for #2, are the fan art directories getting populated with image files?
  <bobweaver> Nope just like 4
  <bobweaver> out of 50 movies or something like that
  <tgm4883> ok
  <bobweaver> drop tables and scan again ?
  <tgm4883> no you shouldn't need to ever touch the DB
  <bobweaver> good to know
  <tgm4883> go into the metadata editing section and do a search for fanart
  <bobweaver> ok
  <tgm4883> also take a look at /var/log/mythtv/metadatalookup.log
   * bobweaver plays skipping record ....  
  <bobweaver> thanks for helping me again tgm4883
  <tgm4883> it says skipping record?
  <tgm4883> anything else?
  <bobweaver> No
  <bobweaver> lol
  <bobweaver> it still is getting nothing
  <bobweaver> I am saying that I am a skipping record by saying "thanks for helping me tgm4883  "
  <tgm4883> ah
  <bobweaver> Ok I think that I have figured it out but could be wrong
  <tgm4883> ok what is it?
  <bobweaver> on the same box that is backend I open the frontend and noticed that all the spaces for where to store things are blank
  <tgm4883> no that's correct
  <bobweaver> ok
  <tgm4883> but check mythtv-setup, as that is where those storage directories are set
  <tgm4883> step 6 I think
  <bobweaver> yeah there is only 2 thumbnails under ~/.mythtv
  <bobweaver> ok will do
  <tgm4883> make sure a directory is setup for each, and that it's writable by the mythtv user
  <bobweaver> yeah they are all set up and right users groups and permissions
  <bobweaver> what is funny about it is this
  <tgm4883> and nothing in that log file?
  <bobweaver> I get all the metadata
  <bobweaver> like what the movie is about the actors anything that is text
  <bobweaver> but I just dont get fanart nor coverart nor thumbnails
  <bobweaver> looking closer at log
  <bobweaver> anything to look for off the top of your head ?
  <bobweaver> Oh I booked my flight today for UDS
  <tgm4883> nice
  <tgm4883> pastebin the log file
  <bobweaver> will do
  <bobweaver> taking a little bit to pastebinit
  <bobweaver> sorry
  <bobweaver> http://paste.ubuntu.com/1197378/
  <tgm4883> bobweaver, do /usr/share/mythtv/metadata/Television/ttvdb.py -v
  <bobweaver> ok
  <bobweaver> http://paste.ubuntu.com/1197384/
  <tgm4883> That looks right, what about     dpkg -l libmyth-python
  <bobweaver> http://paste.ubuntu.com/1197393/
  <tgm4883> bobweaver, ok, what if you do this
  <tgm4883> /usr/share/mythtv/metadata/Television/ttvdb.py -l en -M "The Unit"
  <bobweaver> ok
  <bobweaver> http://paste.ubuntu.com/1197403/
  <tgm4883> ok, so try this
  <tgm4883> In the frontend, in the settings
  <tgm4883> there should be an entry for metadata
  <tgm4883> I don't have a frontend available right now to check :/
  <bobweaver> artwork and data ? there is a place to pick out API
  <bobweaver> we can do this after you are out of work if you like
  <bobweaver> also last thing
  <tgm4883> yea that is right
  <tgm4883> so go in there and cycle though them for television to get ttvdb.py (even if it's already selected)
  <bobweaver> are you or any of mythbuntu people going to hold tracks for the future of Mythtv ? at UDS ? I would go
  <tgm4883> we don't hold mythtv tracks
  <tgm4883> we have semi-private meetings at LTS UDS's
  <tgm4883> semi-private meaning, it's at the bar :)
  <bobweaver> cool I would like to be there if I am cool enough :)
  <bobweaver> I can not change the API
  <bobweaver> wont let m
  <bobweaver> me *
  <tgm4883> hmm, ok, maybe going in was enough
  <tgm4883> I'd like you to try and get artwork again
  <bobweaver> OK
  <bobweaver> nota
  <bobweaver> I even try to reset the data and scan again
  <bobweaver> same thing getting text only back
  <tgm4883> can you paste that log again?
  <bobweaver> let me cat out video dir
  <tgm4883> I want to see if the output changed
  <bobweaver> sure
  <tgm4883> brb
  <bobweaver> kah
  <bobweaver> just to let you know the 2 movies where "Bad Ass"  and "Being Flynn"
  <bobweaver> mythmetadata.log   http://paste.ubuntu.com/1197429/
  <bobweaver> my video dir that holds movies   http://paste.ubuntu.com/1197433/
  <bobweaver> also dont know if this will help when you get back. But I have nothing called "The Unit" in my video's or anywhere on the computer for that matter
  <tgm4883> bobweaver, you don't?
   * tgm4883 wonders why it's searching for it then
  <bobweaver> No Sir
  <bobweaver> I just did       sudo find / -name 'The Unit'       and got nothing back
  <bobweaver> I also ran
  <bobweaver> sudo find / -name '[Tt]he [uU]nit'       and got nothing back
  <tgm4883>  "Bad Ass"  and "Being Flynn" are movies or tv shows?
  <bobweaver>  moves
  <bobweaver> movies
  <bobweaver> tvdb works fine
  <bobweaver> tmdb is the only one that is giving troubles
  <tgm4883> ok
  <bobweaver> running sudo find / -name '*[Tt]he [Uu]nit*'
  <bobweaver> nothing came back  :/
  <bobweaver> going to ask in bash if that is right on the regex
  <tgm4883> nah don't worry about it
  <tgm4883> if it's recorded, it's not going to  have that in the filename anyway
  <bobweaver> Oh there is one recording from Sunday in the lib
  <bobweaver> niners game (that was awesome ! )
  <bobweaver> meaning that I have not recored anything else  that "watch recording "   that is the only thing in there
  <bobweaver> well I recored before But I have rm
  <bobweaver> But nothing called 'the unit '
  <tgm4883> ok, so lets do
  <tgm4883> /usr/share/mythtv/metadata/Movie/tmdb.py -M "Bad Ass"
  <tgm4883> verify that returns XML
  <bobweaver> yah looks good
  <bobweaver> http://paste.ubuntu.com/1197481/
  <bobweaver> that is the correct movie and <image>  link to it is also correct     -->    http://cf2.imgobject.com/t/p/original/ws0LVXY4NwhUDkzdVR27KTXulaI.jpg
  <bobweaver> maybe I should try to run jamu ?
  <tgm4883> bobweaver, nah, jamu is deprecated
  <bobweaver> thansk
  <bobweaver> thanks *
  <tgm4883> out of curiosity, anything in syslog?
  <bobweaver> I will take a look
  <bobweaver> just apparmor talking about unity-scope-gbrowser
  <tgm4883> odd
  <tgm4883> This is 0.25 or 0.26?
  <bobweaver> 0.25.2
  <bobweaver> that was weired I just tried  sudo apt-get install libmyth-0.25-0    and it is installing Oo
  <bobweaver> but apt-cache policy mythtv      shows 0.25.2
   * bobweaver shrugs 
  <bobweaver> tgm4883,  I dont want to take up that much of your time I thank you a ton for all that you have done for me with this You Rock I will try some things and get back to you later thanks again
  <tgm4883> thanks bobweaver I've asked in #mythtv-users as well, but haven't received a response yet
  <bobweaver> thanks ! anything helps at this point I am going to install some new things and I know that I should not muck around with mysql but I am going to export and search file for 'The Unit '
  <bobweaver> wait I think I might have just gained some ground
  <bobweaver> nope false alarm
  <bobweaver> GOT IT !!!!
  <bobweaver> so I have to do this  1) go to each movies and reset the meta data    2) Do not scan go right into the edit movies and then scan from in there and it is working
  <bobweaver> and then I can scan again to get text. not pretty but will work
  <bobweaver> Err but now it is not holding true too all the movies meaning that it is working but then resets :(
  <tgm4883> bobweaver, move all videos out of the videos storage group folder, scan for changes, move them back, scan for changes again
  <tgm4883> that should clear everything it knows about the videos
  <bobweaver> ok will do
  <bobweaver> keeps on crashing the exit code 133 or something like that But I think that it is starting to work
  <bobweaver> Allright tgm4883  I got great new's and I got bad news. good news sorted out mythtv (other frontend was not saving videos in right dir)  But I installed 0.26 of the scope and am still not getting back tv previews. Just to let you know also it is getting 500 error most likly my back end. But that is testing results . I am going to make into a deb and install that way to see how it goes : )thanks again
  #ubuntu-tv 2012-09-11
  <bobweaver> gezz passports are not cheap after my 2nd attempt I will have spent over $420.00 USD
  <bobweaver> Getting frugal with it. nah nah nah nah nah nah nah ... nah nah nah nah nah nah .. getting frugal with it
  <tgm4883> bobweaver, denied again?
  <bobweaver> nope
  <bobweaver> apponment is for tomorrow
  <tgm4883> ah
  <bobweaver> 140 for te 1st denial
  <bobweaver> the *     so  140(old) +  140 +25 +60 +20 +20 + 55(new birth certificate)     = 460.00 USD
  <tgm4883> bobweaver, so you have an appointment with someone now?
  <bobweaver> that is 2 months rent for bobby
  <bobweaver> yeah I set it up when getting birth certificate
  <bobweaver> shit I forgot photos
  <bobweaver> add 17 usd
  <bobweaver> 477.00 USD
  <bobweaver> bodhi_zaren from the forums said that he mad his with gimp though maybe I can do that and save the 17 usd that is a meal
  <tgm4883> yea you can bring your own photo
  <tgm4883> just meet the requirements they want
  <jhodapp> bobweaver, why did you get denied the first time?
  <bobweaver> jhodapp,  birth certificate had rips in it. it is 28 years old
  <bobweaver> seal was all flattened and what not.
  <jhodapp> bobweaver, so they were questioning the authenticity of it?
  <bobweaver> and it did not have watercolor as they did not use it back then
  <bobweaver> I think
  <tgm4883> watermark?
  <bobweaver> or that it just was not good enough I sent in that time got denial letter in the mail and of cource they kept the 140 fee
  <bobweaver> yeah the birth certiface must have water mark now-a-days
  <bobweaver> home-land-security (I think )
  <bobweaver> tgm4883,  http://www.visarite.com/birthcertificate.htm   << watermark   and my seal was just about flat for 28 years of storage
  <bobweaver> like you have to have one or the other  seal that is raised   or watermark
  <bobweaver> this new just has watermark that I got today
  <tgm4883> I had to go get a new one
  <tgm4883> as I don't have an old one :/
  <bobweaver> I might as well and throw the old one out
   * bobweaver is powerful turns out that when I was born the hospital lost power. 
  <bobweaver> no baby pictures
  <jhodapp> lol
  <bobweaver> so it turns out that my BC was not filed until I was 5 days old due to power issues and what not
  <bobweaver> middle of hurricane season I guess in FL
  <bobweaver> also I had my dads birth date wrong
  <bobweaver> which I still can not find
  <bobweaver> I have not talked to him in years
  <bobweaver> last I hear he got arrested with drugs and guns
  <bobweaver> I will google it
  <tgm4883> I didn't even need my dads birth date I think
  <bobweaver> http://ithaca-cortland.ynn.com/content/video_stories/493269/meth-and-heroin-confiscated-in-drug-busts/
  <bobweaver> that's my daddy
  <bobweaver> what a jack off
  <bobweaver> yeah part ten is asking for it and my mothers
  <bobweaver> of the forum that I got from the post office
  <tgm4883> yea they ask for it, but I don't think it's required
  <tgm4883> I'm almost certain I didn't have it
  <bobweaver> lol it is on my OG hospital record of birth
  <tgm4883> unless it's printed on my birth certificate, but I think that is just the place of birth
  <bobweaver> along with little bobby foot prints :)

  <asker> hi
  #ubuntu-tv 2013-09-14
  <James_Epp> I followed the steps on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuTV/Contributing for ubuntu 12.04.3 in a virtualbox VM but all I get is the main panel, desktop background and no launcher after the reboot. I expected some sort of GUI, but it does not appear one exists?
  #ubuntu-tv 2015-09-08
