| [00:56] | <crweb> | JoeyBorn: whats all this plane talk? |
| [02:13] | <jwu> | crweb: is the network setting ok? |
| [05:46] | <daurnimator> | anyone here? |
| [05:49] | <nerochiaro> | partly |
| [14:35] | <JoeBorn> | crweb, you there? |
| [15:23] | <srobertson> | JoeBorn: where do you find those pictures for OdNT? |
| [15:42] | <crweb> | I have arrived |
| [15:43] | <crweb> | running around all day putting affairs in order (the stuff i was supposed to do while I was playin with my GUI for the osd heh) |
| [15:55] | <saablover> | when you hookup an external tuner to the neuros can you let it record ? |
| [15:55] | <crweb> | yes |
| [15:57] | <saablover> | so when I can control my tuner and output it's tuned data to the neuros I can let it compress ? |
| [15:57] | <saablover> | or encode |
| [15:57] | <crweb> | yes |
| [15:57] | <saablover> | ok |
| [15:58] | <crweb> | it can record into various formats |
| [15:58] | <saablover> | has this already been done ? |
| [15:58] | <crweb> | it is a feature yes |
| [15:59] | <saablover> | hmm interesting |
| [16:00] | <saablover> | is it fast enough to do live encoding ? |
| [16:00] | <crweb> | it better be |
| [16:00] | <crweb> | theres no ram for buffering if not |
| [16:01] | <crweb> | ; |
| [16:01] | <crweb> | ) |
| [16:01] | <crweb> | err, smile |
| [16:04] | <saablover> | cool external tuners do exist |
| [16:05] | <saablover> | interesting :) |
| [16:11] | <JoeBorn> | srobertson, some of them I take myself and most of the others are just from searching flickr |
| [16:11] | <crweb> | saablover: yes I use one |
| [16:11] | <crweb> | saablover: I use my cable box |
| [16:11] | <crweb> | saablover: when it works, the IR blaster can be setup to control your cable TV or dish reciever |
| [16:12] | <saablover> | wich cable box do you have ? |
| [16:12] | <crweb> | I have a motrolla |
| [16:12] | <crweb> | heh, motorola |
| [16:14] | <saablover> | it would be cool if I have this: a standalone tv tuner that I can hook on my lcd screen and to the osd when I want to record I just switch the output to the neuros |
| [16:14] | <saablover> | when i don't want to record I just switch to the lcd |
| [16:15] | <crweb> | I believe the OSD has video passthrough |
| [16:15] | <crweb> | you wouldn't have to "switch" |
| [16:15] | <crweb> | most of those boxes output a/v and vga at the same time |
| [16:16] | <saablover> | that would be cool |
| [16:19] | <saablover> | hmm most only support vga out |
| [16:21] | <JoeBorn> | really most of the cable boxes have VGA? |
| [16:22] | <JoeBorn> | is there anything out there with video in and VGA out, I've been putting off buying a TV in hopes of finding something that does that. |
| [16:22] | <saablover> | no I am looking for a standalone tuner |
| [16:22] | <saablover> | it does exist |
| [16:22] | <saablover> | lots of them |
| [16:22] | <JoeBorn> | link? |
| [16:24] | <saablover> | sewelldirect.com |
| [16:24] | <saablover> | can you encode from usb input ? |
| [16:27] | <crweb> | saablover: you'd need a usb driver |
| [16:27] | <saablover> | this one does the trick :) |
| [16:27] | <crweb> | if one exists for linux, it may be possible to do, but only with the arm cpu. So i doubt you could get live |
| [16:27] | <crweb> | live compression i mean |
| [16:27] | <crweb> | it would take some hacking |
| [16:27] | <saablover> | www.sabrent.com |
| [16:28] | <saablover> | TV-LCD05 |
| [16:28] | <saablover> | vga and video output |
| [16:28] | <crweb> | nerochiaro: i got my player window design worked out while in physics today. Going to be pretty sweet |
| [16:28] | <saablover> | yeehaa :-) |
| [16:28] | <crweb> | JoeBorn: hey! |
| [16:28] | <JoeBorn> | howdy |
| [16:28] | <crweb> | didn't see you hidden there in saablover's lines. konverstation made you both blue |
| [16:29] | <saablover> | oops I will keep quiet |
| [16:29] | <crweb> | hah, no need, I can read |
| [16:30] | <crweb> | hows the sky in chicago? |
| [16:31] | <crweb> | it was nice and sunny down here, cold as ever, but sun made the inside of my car nice and warm |
| [16:32] | <saablover> | cool toy eh: TV-Out Composite/S-VHS/Component and VGA monitor output |
| [16:33] | <saablover> | without buying a tv I can watch on my computer and record on my neuros |
| [16:33] | <saablover> | cool :) |
| [16:33] | <crweb> | you have to watch out though |
| [16:33] | <crweb> | some of those boxes can be very cheaply designed and barely work |
| [16:33] | <saablover> | I will ask for a test device :) |
| [16:37] | <crweb> | JoeBorn: the new rootfs system I proposed I think is working great |
| [16:37] | <crweb> | JoeBorn: for us at least. Haven't heard any details about problems from gao or anybody yet |
| [16:37] | <saablover> | crweb: thx for the help, this will let me buy a neuros |
| [16:37] | <crweb> | saablover: you can do a lot of stuff programming wise too |
| [16:38] | <saablover> | for example ? |
| [16:38] | <crweb> | saablover: its very nice for learning how to do embedded development |
| [16:38] | <saablover> | can you control a tuner from the neuros ? |
| [16:38] | <crweb> | saablover: its opensource, all the code and everything is available |
| [16:38] | <saablover> | I know |
| [16:39] | <crweb> | saablover: www.limesg.com these examples are my own softwares running on it |
| [16:39] | <crweb> | all beta of course |
| [16:39] | <crweb> | saablover: yes, you can |
| [16:39] | <crweb> | saablover: eventually. I do not know how well it works right now. It is a feature they are working on |
| [16:39] | <crweb> | saablover: it comes with IR blaster stuff though |
| [16:39] | <crweb> | saablover: for controlling devices |
| [16:41] | <saablover> | I see |
| [16:41] | <saablover> | streaming from it would be great also |
| [16:41] | <crweb> | also a future feature |
| [16:41] | <crweb> | thats all software based though |
| [16:41] | <saablover> | will the hardware change or just the firmware ? |
| [16:42] | <JoeBorn> | saablover, it looks like the sewell thing just does VGA to VGA? |
| [16:42] | <crweb> | saablover: the hardware is finished. You're talking about software features |
| [16:44] | <crweb> | www.newegg.com |
| [16:48] | <JoeBorn> | saablover, sorry I see the specs now... this is great, just what I've been looking for! |
| [16:49] | <saablover> | cool eh |
| [16:49] | <saablover> | one with vga and composite output would be very cool |
| [16:50] | <saablover> | but hard to find |
| [16:51] | <JoeBorn> | I just want to buy a monitor instead of a TV, so I'm satisfied! |
| [16:51] | <crweb> | make sure your lcd matches the device's supported resolutions |
| [16:51] | <saablover> | yeah but how do you record on the neuros then ? |
| [16:55] | <saablover> | never mind I need my bed |
| [16:58] | <JoeBorn> | night |
