Post subject: | Where has the "SAP/Bilingual" option gone?? |
I just recently built a new box with "modern" hardware. It works great. In the process, I came back to Knoppmyth R5E50 to save (a lot of) time, and everything installed perfectly (unlike on my old hardware in ... wow, 2004!). So far so good. It works great. The thing that is stomping me is to figure how I can set it up to automatically record the second language on bilingual programs. In "Recording profiles", there *should* be an option that lets me do just that. I did set it up on my "old" box. And now it doesn't show up. I am using the exact same PVR350 card (I moved it from the old box). It seems to load right (see below). The card does allow me to switch back and forth between languages using the ivtv tools. I have checked in the code (I thought maybe it was one of the numerous patches I had applied in the past), but indeed, this option is part of the "normal" mythtv, defined in recordingprofile.cpp (see below). So it should appear... So, why would I not be given this option?? I could build the source and start debugging, but I would really like to avoid this if possible (I was so happy not to have to do ANY tweaking this time)...

Well, I figured it out... It doesn't show, because this code was made in changeset 11377 in the trunk, and I guess wasn't back ported to the 0.20-fixes branch. So, FYI for people who get programming in dual language, the trunk now has a great feature to ease the process of selecting which channel to record. And sorry for the question, I should have checked the source more carefully. I was just confused and thought maybe it had to do with some weirdness with my card or something... |

I think it can be done manually. http://mysettopbox.tv/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=4064&highlight=dual This is a rather old post and setting the default language mode on a tuner might have been ported to v4l2-ctl. Check the man pages for both, and then add the appropriate command to ~mythtv/.fluxbox/apps. Allen |

Yeah, that's an idea. I never thought of using the fluxbox setting to set this... I'll have to give it a try, since it's quick. However, if someone reads this, be advised that this will probably be broken after the next upgrade, since the "new" way of doing it (in the trunk) actually sets ivtv according to the settings in the UI every time a show starts recording (if I am not mistaken). |
