Hey there...

I got my box working and recording like a champ. I just recorded something last night that I want to burn to DVD. So, I followed the menus to open nuv2disc. The program said that I had nothing that was DVD ready. I saw a button that offered to transcode the recordings I had, so I selected that... selected the video I wanted to burn to DVD... and it took all of a half a second before it stopped with the following:

Code:
Creating 10122058_Lost_Everybody_Hates_Hugo
[tcprobe] MPEG program stream (PS)
1
0
1
DVD:
ERROR
DVD - USING DVD mode for nuvexport 10/13 03:34:27 PM
Conversion engine is currently busy DVD Transcoding:
began at 10/13 03:34:27 PM
10122058_Lost_Everybody_Hates_Hugo
Please specify both a starttime and chanid.
Transcode of complete 10/13 03:34:29 PM


So... what am I doing wrong, here? Because I'm sure it's something that I'M doing... :)
Thanks!

Update...

I ran ./systemcheck.sh and received the following errors:

Code:
Using mpeg2desc
Could not find lvemux in the path, DVDSUPPORT requires the use of lvemux
Could not find avidemux in the path, DVDSUPPORT requires the use of avidemux

nuv2disc could not find all the requirments.  Please check your installation or
adjust your PATH.
The current path is:
/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr
/games:/myth/nuv2disc/dvdwizard


Being a newb... what's my next step (ie. where do I obtain/find the requirements)?

I can now pass the systemcheck, but transcoding still produces no output. I'll explain how to get the 2 mux programs:

http://knoppmythwiki.org/index.php?page ... thankyou=1

explains this pretty well, but I've cleaned it up in a few places below.

To get lvemux and avidemux:
Quote:
cd /home/mythtv
wget http://ovh.dl.sourceforge.net/lvempeg/l ... 22.src.tgz
Untar lvemux with this command:
tar -zxvf lvemux-040322.src.tgz

Edit the file called Makefile and replace the existing gcc line like this (this will add large file support to lvemux).

cd lvemux
vi Makefile
Press Insert key (or letter I or A)
after the line that says:
CFLAGS += -mcpu=pentium3 -msse -mfpmath=sse

Add another one that says:
CFLAGS += -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64
Press Escape
Type :wq and press enter to exit and save the file.

If you're not already logged in as root, type su to do so.

Type
make
make install

Stay logged in as root.

vi /etc/apt/sources.list
Press Insert key (or letter I or A)
Add this marillat site:
deb ftp://ftp.nerim.net/debian-marillat/ sid main
(Note:This used to be "unstable main" but marillat changed his ftp site.)
Press Escape
Type :wq and press enter to exit and save the file.

Do these apt-get statements also as root
apt-get update
apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev libxml2 libxml2-dev libfaad2-0 avidemux


If apt-get complains it cannot find something, you may also need to add deb http://www.rarewares.org/debian/packages/unstable/ ./
to your /etc/apt/sources.list
but I can't remember if that was critical.

You should now be able to type:
/myth/nuv2disc/systemcheck.sh
and pass the system check. (Of course, this doesn't mean nuv2disc will necessarily work. Mine still doesn't.)

If anyone knows why it would appear to transcode for about 3 seconds and then return to the nuv2disc menu with no dvd-ready files showing I'd be glad to get some help!

nuvexport is failing or not understanding the parms that nuv2disc passes to it.

Hey there,

When I try to follow those steps, the first for lvemux works fine, but avidemux yields all sorts of complaints:

Code:
root@mythtv-1:~/tmp# apt-get install avidemux                              Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  avidemux: Depends: libaa1 (>= 1.2) but it is not installable
            Depends: libasound2 (> 1.0.9) but 1.0.8-3 is to be installed
            Depends: libatk1.0-0 (>= 1.9.0) but 1.8.0-4 is to be installed
            Depends: libgcc1 (>= 1:4.0.0-9) but 1:3.4.3-12 is to be installed
            Depends: libmp4-0 (>= 2.0.0-0.3) but 2.0.0-0.2 is to be installed
            Depends: libslang2 (>= 2.0.1-1) but it is not installable
            Depends: libstdc++6 (>= 4.0.1) but it is not going to be installed
E: Broken packages



Any thoughts?

Thanks,

-Ben

Hi,

Did you try adding the rarewares site to your sources.list? I'm not sure if that's the magic fix, but basically you need to find a repository that has the files that apt-get says it cannot find. Search around (Google) for those filenames to try to figure out some place that has them. Probably there is a repository commented out in your /etc/apt/sources.list that if you uncomment will do the trick.

I'll do that - but it seems the package I'm choking on is the libaa1... any help on where I can find that?

Thanks,

It's in Debian unstable. If you add that to your sources be sure to only do it for that one installation and then take it back out. Also use the '-s' flag on apt-get to simulate the install first to make sure it isn't going to drag in 199 dependencies that you don't want to upgrade. This can really screw up your system.

Alternatively you could just download the libaa1 deb itself and dpkg -i libaa1*.deb

http://packages.debian.org/unstable/libs/libaa1

If you keep track of what eventually works post it here for posterity.

I can't even begin to type all the packages I'm finding I need just for avidemux. I need to install gcc 4.x so I can get the later libstdc++ installed so I can get all these other crazy things put it... apt-get can't/won't do the upgrade on gcc-4.x so unless someone wants to handhold me through this, it just isn't worth it until the releases are stable or it's included in the next upgrade to KnoppMyth...

I would be happy to make my machine available on the net if you'd like to see what a mess it is...

Thanks for your help though..

-Ben
