Installation issues / Re: NVidia GT220, no AVWizard

« on: July 12, 2010, 09:28:27 pm »

I am thinking it has something to do with my bios and the onboard ati video card.
i tried all the options in the wiki but no luck,
somehow it doesn't want to start AV wizard.

i also tried a new install, after the kubuntu install i activated te driver (195), after restart i could get a picture too.

i am running out of ideas,
can somebody please help me,
its driving me nuts

thanks

Installation issues / UPDATE: NVidia GT220, no AVWizard

« on: July 10, 2010, 01:07:47 am »

Hi all,

i am building a new core/hybrid with a MSI MS7191 mainboard (with onboard Ati), 1 gig an a NVidia GT220.
i am using the 8.10 snapshot from 4 july.
i can't turn off onboard video, i can only set it to 'auto'.

i did succesful install ubuntu 9.10 with no problem at all.

the install went smooth altho i could not do the update after the install of kubuntu.
then after the reboot, i can't seem to get the AVWizard.
i saw the screen where it says orbiter generator done (ctrl+alt+1)

i tried the lspci 'trick' but that doesn't help, my busID is 01:00.0 (axactly this way)
i typed "PCI:01:0:0" is that ok?

the GT220 needs driver 195 and above is the default driver for LinuxMCE older than that?

does anybody have a pointer in the right direction or a solution?

kind regards,
Raymond

The Dianemo skin really looks stunning, do u have any pointers (guidance) to how to make such a skin on your own?
or do u simply use HA designer?
All help is much appreciated

Users / Managing and adding Media

« on: June 27, 2010, 06:49:18 pm »

After working a lot with xbmc, i am wondering how to manage/add my media in lmce, i can't seem to find the answers in the wiki's.
I have 1.5 TB of mkv-movie files and music, all managed with an external media manager (http://www.embermm.com/)

does lmce have a way to manualy manage my media?

Wat is the proper and right way to add all of my movies and music?
I have all of my media stored on a internal 2TB disk.

I wanna be able to determan the fileformat, i do not want to compress the movies or music, i want the best  quality (HD space is no problem)

Also i want to be able to choose my own movie thumbs, scenario's, cast, artists, etc.

Any help is much apriciated,

Raymond

@davidsmoot:
thanks for your inside and ideas but the ocelot can act as a device controled by software, i know this because the HomeAutomation software HomeSeer uses the Ocelot as a controled device.

@nite_man thanks for the info i will be starting to try it as soon as possible.

@ all of you:
i know now that the Ocelot can control stuff on his own, but thats not the way i wanna use it,
i wanna use all features of LinuxMCE as a complete and totall control system for my house, using the Ocelot as an interface,
there are a lot of connections that can be made with the Ocelot (rs232, humididy sensors, ir sending/recieving, X10, i/o-boards, etc..)
other Home Automation software does succeed in using the Ocelot as a controled by software device (but the software isn't neer as good as LMCE) so i am thinking LMCE must be adaptable to using the Ocelot.

once again super thanks for all your replies,
any help is greatly apriciated,

if someone is willing to help me get this GSD programmed in any way i would be very greatful,

thanks Raymond

Anyway, yes, the Ocelot can do a lot but has a poor interface.
The interface of LinuxMCE is superb, thats another reason for me to get this working.
The overall functions and interface of LMCE is just overwhelming great, thats also why i wish this would work.

Tx a lot for your help

and 1 of these: http://www.appdig.com/adicon_new/secu16ir.htm
and a X10 module connected to the Ocelot

could someone please help me out to get the Ocelot, 3 modules (including IR) and the X10 module completly working.
Or point me in the right direction.
Where and how do i start creating GSD, have been trying a lot.
Would be great if someone helped me with a step by step detailed instruction (dummy style )
