Post subject: | using nuvexport from SBE fails |
for some reason, using nuvexport on my SBE fails returning the following error message... Code: Loading MythTV recording info. DBD::mysql::st execute failed: Unknown column 'basename' in 'field list' at /usr/local/share/nuvexport/mythtv/recordings.pm line 65. No valid recordings found! i'd like to share some of the transcoding burden with the SBE that just sits in the back room and almost always functions as a simple frontend (the capture card is used about 3 times per week). by looking through the code, i'm working under the assumption that nuvexport is trying to use the SBE to find and use captured files, and will not recognize anything that has been captured on the MBE, thus returning our 'no valid recordings found' error. my problem is that my perl skills are weak, and i've no idea how to force nuvexport to look at the remote backend (the MBE) for files to transcode. i believe that this line in /usr/bin/nuvexport is the culprit, but i'm uncertain how to change it to force nuvexport to look on the remote backend for shows to transcode... Code: use mythtv::recordings;
if someone with some better perl skills than mine could show me how to fix this or at least give me a nice gentle shove in the right direction, i'd be much appreciative... |

just to keep some continuity to this thread, a quick substitute is to edit /home/mythtv/.mythtv/mysql.txt so that LocalHostName is uncommented and set this to the hostname of the MBE (in my case, i'm using mythtv for the MBE and mythbed for the SBE in my bedroom), and i just leave two LocalHostName lines in my file so that i can comment/uncomment as i need them. those lines look like this when i'm not encoding... Code: LocalHostName=mythbed #LocalHostName=mythtv and like this when i want to run nuvexport Code: #LocalHostName=mythbed
LocalHostName=mythtv i would recommend that you comment back to the appropriate way after setting up nuvexport as it only uses the hostname when selecting files from the DB, and any settings that are read from the DB by the frontend will be read from the wrong frontend section (you'll be reading from mythtv instead of mythbed) while you're transcoding. this has a relatively severe impact on my system since i'm running a monitor at 1280x960 in the bedroom and a TV via svid out at 800x600 in the living room... |
