this makes me mad (so i am blogging it) i just learned that the long waits i noticed on my netflix queue are on purpose. this is unacceptable. so netflix not only did i email you but i will blog (ha)

turns out if you watch a lot of movies they will limit you to new releases all you get is old shit (why i havent watched anything new lately) on the top of my netflix queue i have about 7 new releases, they are all “very long wait” not cool netflix. some dude has a hack for it

but its a lame idea i have 115 movies in my queue. I like the idea however in a comment where you make a 2nd queue (for friends or family) then drop the new release 1 by 1 into the queue i will test that later and see if it works.

BAD NETFLIX i actually loved your service until this morning. dent make me cancel you and go back to downloading.

google is working on new search math to get rid of some of the cheats people use to up rankings. The cool thing is that you can test the new engine. cooler is my site is still at the top for the keywords i want people to find me with!

I dont know why this was so hard to find but since it was I bloged it…

to backup a SQL database to a file each night so that my backup software can then back up that file to disk/tape i want a script that would backup database to disk and overwrite the old. database maintnence jobs are supposed to do this if you say delete file older then X days however my database maintnence jobs are failing with dumb errors i dont care to fix. so here is a script job you can run to do just that.

BACKUP DATABASE %databasename% TO DISK = "%location to backup.bak%"

i was watching mtv today (two post about mtv in one day, lame) anyway i saw a video for hello goodbye (band) and i was like woah i know them. My good buddy Scott Culver directed a video for them. But its not the one on TV(click that link to up the rating on mtv please). so to officially give props to scott culver this link http://www.scottculver.com/ will get you to his site where you can watch what i feel is a better video then the one on mtv right now not only was scott the first  but he was better. so if your reading this and work at drive thru suggestion that you get scotts video up. its so much better then the bland blah blah that is up there now. all the same the band is cool even if d.t.r. didn't put the better video up. if you like pop-punk sounding stuff with some crazy keyboard (its good) listen. that was my plug for the day. hello goodbye the band is cool you can get free mp3 download if you look on any p2p network and the music video is in divix if you look on torrent sites. was that good for words to get scott culver attached to anything that is cool? yea i think so. your welcome Scott. I (heart) you.

Summary Scott Video good other MTV video not as good.

now that I have a stable mythTV box up and running I am loving the DVR so much, commercial skip rules. Its very smart on every channel but MTV1/2 will it skip all the channels perfectly.

MTV is so flashy and jumpy and ‘gen-x’ that the commercial detection has no idea when a commercial starts.

Well for the last week I have been working on setting up a DVR (tivo) box for my home. This DVR is a DVR-Server of sorts using MythTV as the back-end for it all, and using Xbox with XBMC as the font end. It works sweet and here are my notes on the setup.

Equipment

• MSI 845U Motherboard with 512ram and 2.3P4 (had that sitting around)
• Hauppauge PVR-500 (picked that up) added a 2nd
• nVidea AGP ATI AIW-8500 (for DVI)
• SoundBlaster Live!
• 250GB ATA

stuck all that into a box added a few more fans for server coolness.

Software

I decided to use KnoppMyth Release 5A30.15B75C7 because its fast easy and has all the packages I need on one CD I am fairly comfortable with debian being that all Knoppix distros use it. The CD allows for fast easy setup. Its a nobrainer. and lots of scripts for a fast install.

you need A hacked xbox with XBMC and XBMCMythTV (items out of scope of document for setup and how-to)

Setup of KnoppMyth is easy you can follow the many guides for installing the product

Install Guide KnoppMyth Wikki

Install Guide KnoppMyth other parts and stuff

Install Guide for Fedora (homebrew your whole box not for K.M.)

MythTV Documentation (generic documentation on the MythApplication)

Its all very basic install. Some tips I found to not be documented well (make sure your running SU/root)

• First off if your not a linux nerd then use the Web-Admin tool allows fast easy configs
• auto start samba with – update-rc.d samba defaults
• edit /etc/samba smb.conf to contain the /cache root path (need this to stream live tv to the xbox for.18 .19 is not the same and also not working right now with xbox)
• enable use of mysql on network commenting out a line that reads 'skip-networking' in the /etc/mysql/my.cnf
• make sure your security for the db is good here
• restarting MySQL (/etc/init.d/mysql restart)change the IP address in the 'General' section of mythtv-setup on the backend system. Change both instances of IP numbers from the loopback address (127.0.0.1) to the actual IP number of the backend.(then restart backend) if frontend fails to load this is the reason.
• set all record profiles to 720x480
• read howto-icons to grab the new channel icons -slow script
• How to set the XBMC skin button to auto launch TV
• to re-config the MythTV run ‘mythtv-setup’ from command line
• backend restart #/etc/init.d/mythtv-backend restart (or stop)

If you have XBMCMYTHTV Live TV stream that dies after a few seconds use this trick

• set XBMC buffers for network to 1024mb
• set the ring file buffer in the xbmcmythtv to 8192mb (as of CVS XMBCMYTHTV now just runs off XBMC Buffers)

This will allow the ring file to grow to 8mb before XBMC plays it – and XBMC wont read more then 1mb ahead so you have buffer to FF/RW and not crash. However if you FF past live it crashes (i hope that fix that)

Here are some troubleshooting links for fourms and other spots for help

• XBMC MythTV
• MythTV Talk
• MythTV
• MySetTopBox

Windows Suport? i didn't find anything that worked or that was any good the website that comes with the distro will allow you to stream to a computer any recorded media which is good for me since I use all Xbox’s there is Decoders for Windows for the files that MythTV natively saves. I will continue to try and get better web and windows support for the application and post anything interesting. meanwhile we all wait for MythTV v.19.

With this setup I can record or watch two TV channels at once. and stream back any content to any xbox in the house. I got three streams one was live tv the other two were recorded shows, i also was recording a show. All of this did not have any performance loss on the hardware or on my 100 base network.

Edit: MythTV v .19 out

Edit: Updates for .19 and KnoppMythR5B7 R5C7 current from 6/4/06

• now supports ATI remote wonder great just plug and play, dont 'remove the kernel module' it wont work with just LIR
• if you upgrade from prior versions and use this FYI for setup then make sure that you enable the network for SQL otherwise it wont auto launch the font end with startx
• digital audio out
• connect cable box
• i have also added a ATI-AIW8500 as the video card. no this isnt for a input but the DVI output to my new TV works great
• netflix setup

I had a problem where windows mobile needed to access a secure site that i was not paying for a cirt with verisign for. Here is how i did it.

1. Open IE on your desktop and load the page in question – click view cirt, then click install cirt.

2. open MMC (Start -> Run -> "MMC" -> Ok) and add the Certificates Snap-in (not Certificate Authority snap-in) for your "computer account" / "local computer".

3. Open up the "Trusted Root Certificate Authorities" tree, and under "Certificates" look for one that is named exactly like the one you found on #1. Right click, All Task, Export and export it as a DER Encoded X.509 cert.

4. Copy the exported cert onto your device

5. Open up File Explorer find that file, and double click to execute. It should automatically imported the cert.

if you pretend to cancel with game fly you get this message

 This was a FYI from KellyKeeton.com for gamefly discount coupon code or money saver what ever you want to call it.

Danny a friend and co-worker just set up his blog His blog is mostly Security related things and knowing Danny it will get updated once a month but lets see what he will do, i trust that with my trackback and google hits he will get from it. Danny will one day be the top security blog dog.

Danny Security Related blog http://luedkes.com/taxonomy/term/3 has current patches security releases and vulnerability information. Find out about patches and all other information for windows linux and network appliance and infrastructure gear.
