[01:41] <parkerhiggins_> anybody out there right now?
[01:42] <parkerhiggins_> joeborn, you around?
[01:47] <allyourrejects> i am.. "around"
[01:48] <parkerhiggins_> hey allyourrejects, i was wondering if there's a tutorial somewhere for streaming media from my pc to my osd? (my pc, incidentally, is a mac.) [also, i apologize if you aren't the person to be asking, but hey, you're around.]
[01:49] <allyourrejects> I do not know of any tutorials.
[01:50] <allyourrejects> what you would need to do is enable windows file sharing for your mac
[01:50] <allyourrejects> or download some soft of UPnP media server
[01:50] <parkerhiggins_> ah. i think i know how to do that.
[01:50] <allyourrejects> then the OSD can access these (*sometimes*)
[01:50] <allyourrejects> OSX has a bug where it will not broad cast its windows share data, so it cannot be detected by osd
[01:51] <parkerhiggins_> oh. that's a bummer.
[01:51] <allyourrejects> its a sometimes deal
[01:51] <allyourrejects> maybe you could find OSX info on how to enable broad cast :)
[02:43] <allyourrejects> parkerhiggins_: greyback on the OSD forums has setup some soft of OSX guide
[02:43] <allyourrejects> err, some sort
[02:44] <allyourrejects> parkerhiggins_: he visits in here sometimes too. usually in about +6 hours or so
[09:10] <emotehman> nerochiaro: let me know when you are there. I have one more question this morning.
[10:07] <JohnDesigner> JoeBorn: so you weren't kidding about the saimese cat connector, huh.
[12:21] <MattJ> Wow
[12:21] <MattJ> The BBC are *not* liked right now :)
[12:21] <MattJ> news.bbc.co.uk
[12:26] <gremlin[it]> good evening !
[12:33] <JoeyBorn> MattJ: how's it going?
[12:34] <MattJ> JoeyBorn: Ok thanks :)
[12:34] <MattJ> You?
[12:35] <JoeyBorn> not bad, just reading that article.
[12:35] <MattJ> People are citing competition laws
[12:35] <MattJ> ie. the fact that the BBC is locking out non-Apple devices
[12:37] <JoeyBorn> life will sure be a lot better when content folks figure out some new business models, I hope for everyone's sake that happens sooner rather than later.
[12:38] <MattJ> Me too
[12:38] <wallace> Hello
[12:39] <wallace> there some have in mind to make like a pay-per-view module?
[12:47] <JohnDesigner> crweb: how do I get the Chinese font(s) to display in AZ?
[12:50] <JohnDesigner> crweb: I tried Regional>language, spun to one of the Chinese settings, saved. nothing happend. rebooted. no change.
[12:51] <JohnDesigner> AZ y.37
[14:27] <nerochiaro> JohnDesigner: i'm not sure they are in yet
[14:27] <JohnDesigner> nerochiaro: okay, thanks
[14:27] <nerochiaro> JohnDesigner: try asking Jimmy or Tom
[14:27] <JohnDesigner> nerochiaro: yep, request is pending there
[14:28] <nerochiaro> emotehman: ping
[14:28] <JohnDesigner> nerochiaro: no hurry really
[14:35] <JohnDesigner> anyone running Torfu? Press the record button twice and see what happens please.
[14:35] <MattJ> JohnDesigner: It doesn't OK the box
[14:35] <MattJ> If that's what you mean :)
[14:36] <JohnDesigner> you need to OK the "recording settings confirmation" message?
[14:36] <MattJ> Yes, with Enter
[14:36] <JohnDesigner> when that message appears, pressing Rec key again does not start recording?
[14:36] <MattJ> It used to, I am pretty sure
[14:37] <MattJ> But no, I noticed it last week
[14:37] <MattJ> It doesn't now
[14:37] <JohnDesigner> MattJ: gah.
[14:37] <JohnDesigner> I'm ready to throw in the towel on the whole damned thing.
[14:38] <JohnDesigner> Trouble with the recording settings confirmation is that it is not really aimed at Geeks, but those are the only folks chiming in on the subject.
[14:38] <JohnDesigner> only folks that will too.
[14:39] <MattJ> I don't like the confirmation (I chimed in last time the issue came up)
[14:39] <JohnDesigner> did you disable it.
[14:39] <JohnDesigner> ?
[14:39] <MattJ> I did
[14:40] <MattJ> Settings were lost when I upgraded some time ago, so it is on now
[14:40] <JohnDesigner> MattJ: do you typically use only one recording settings and location combo?
[14:40] <MattJ> Always
[14:41] <JohnDesigner> ya, then its going to be useless to you.
[14:41] <MattJ> The OSD took over from my VCR
[14:41] <MattJ> and my VCR recorded instantly when I pressed record :)
[14:41] <MattJ> Pressing Record twice was a nice compromise
[14:41] <MattJ> I just kept pressing it until I saw the red light
[14:41] <JohnDesigner> right, but your vcr *always* records to the same thing.
[14:41] <MattJ> So does my OSD
[14:42] <MattJ> But I understand not everyone's does
[14:42] <JohnDesigner> what if you had an SDcard *and* Usb attached
[14:42] <MattJ> Part of the annoyance in the screen is that 90% of the time I press record without seeing the OSD's output on the TV screen
[14:42] <MattJ> *part of the annoyance in the confirmation
[14:43] <JohnDesigner> well, in general I am tired of explaining why it is there to those it was not meant to appease (disable it if not liked)
[14:44] <MattJ> You don't have to explain it to me :)
[14:44] <JohnDesigner> MattJ: and I know that you are not asking for an explanation
[14:44] <JohnDesigner> heh, I type slow, sorry
[14:44] <MattJ> Disabling it and/or Record == Enter is fine for me
[14:45] <JohnDesigner> ya, not having Record=Enter really kills any leg I have to stand on in the issue.
[14:50] <JohnDesigner> beginning to be not worth fighting about it since I seem to be an army of one on the topic.
[14:50] <MattJ> JohnDesigner: You are fighting on behalf of the masses of innocent users who have SD, CF, USB and network shares to record to on their OSD
[14:52] <JohnDesigner> MattJ: I find the confirmation useful. Actually, the much hailed Tivo works the same way.
[14:52] * MattJ  never saw or hailed a Tivo
[14:52] <JohnDesigner> hehe
[14:53] <JohnDesigner> Tivo is not why I designed the behavior, but it does give some credibility to the notion.
[15:18] <tarbo> i hailed a tivo once, but it already had a passenger
[16:51] * JohnDesigner  adds a rimshot for tarbo ..badunk Ching.
[22:55] <allyourrejects> nerochiaro: my install from trunk just failed just like Hostile's
[22:58] <allyourrejects> card gets mounted on hda1 instead of /media/ext
[23:02] <allyourrejects> agh, svn conflicted and didn't tell me :( bit by my own bug
[23:46] <Hostile> aha!
[23:46] <MP0> hmm, last time I tried a build from svn, it kept rebooting. I'm trying to do a clean rebuild.
