Warehouse staff complain of 'freezing' conditions in 'absolute nightmare' workplace
Home Warehousing
in Warehousing
Workers at a clothing warehouse say they are still freezing cold in their "absolute nightmare" workplace, two weeks after they said they were told their problems would be solved.
As the ECHO has previously reported , staff at the Oh Polly warehouse in Bromborough , Wirral are angry at what they say are the company's 'wasteful' practices.
However, a spokesperson for the online clothing company said the firm is seeking to address heating issues at the warehouse.
A current worker at the warehouse, who did not want to be identified, said: "In the last article that was put in the paper they [Oh Polly] said that we were given hats, gloves, scarves, socks and a body warmer.

"In actual fact we got one pair of fingerless gloves the following Monday as they had to be ordered in.
"The company is a complete and utter joke, but it pays my wages at the end of the day."
When the ECHO reported on Oh Polly last month, the firm said they would sort out their warehouse's cold conditions, and today insisted they had offered hats, scarves and gloves to staff.
However, according to the worker who spoke to the ECHO , little has changed.
Some workers have even claimed the conditions were making them ill.
A spokesperson for Oh Polly said they were dealing with the heating problems inside the Bromborough warehouse.
They said: "While we wait for British Gas to connect the premises in the coming weeks, all employees have been offered hats, gloves, and scarves.
"In addition, we have brought in several large industrial heaters as a temporary solution to ensure working conditions are more comfortable. We're aware of some glitches with the temporary heaters and are fixing these as a priority.
"We've spent time with all current members of staff to ensure they are happy and comfortable."
The worker who spoke to the ECHO about her concerns also criticised her own workload, saying: "The Royal Mail and Asda [items] have to be checked over and more often than not most of the clothing is good enough to be resold.
"With bikini bottoms we have a look to see if the hygiene sticker looks clean and if it is we put a clean one on. But because we have to process 20 items of clothing an hour this procedure does get overlooked.

"20 items per hour. That's over 140 items per person per shift and if we don't hit that target we are then spoken to because we are not working fast enough."
This level of demand has created a backlog, which she fears may start to grow due to increased demand around Black Friday.
She said: "There are quite a number of pallets still sitting there since August and with Black Friday approaching that's only going to get worse.
"There's thousands upon thousands of parcels waiting to be opened."
A relative of another employee at the warehouse echoed these concerns, telling the ECHO: "The company said that the workers would be provided with hats, gloves, scarves and a body warmer. Well all they got was fingerless gloves which can't be worn as the bits of them transfer to the clothing.
"Also all the heaters that they got in can only be used with one bar on, if [they] put two bars on then the electricity trips.
"That's an absolute nightmare when you're in the middle of processing something on the computer and the electricity goes off and not just once either."
He added: "There are cages and cages of faulty clothing that is just sitting there waiting to go to landfill. That's an absolute shame as it could be given to organisations to be repaired and then sold off cheaper."
One former Oh Polly worker echoed the concerns raised by others at the firm.
The woman, who did not wish to be named, said: "There are three different returns parcels from Royal Mail done every day, but there's still a backlog. Then there's the American returns.

"They are sat in huge cardboard boxes on shelves and some are as old as July, it's now coming to the end of November, so between four and five months they have been sat there.
"I wouldn't mind if those clothes being returned were clean but most of them are dirty, especially the bikini bottoms. People have even put dirty underwear in with the parcels."
Oh Polly's spokesperson refuted the criticism of the company's returns policy, telling the ECHO : "When clothes are returned to us, we inspect and clean each item and carry out quality control checks before adding the product back into stock inventory to ensure it's in perfect condition.
"This is an industry standard practice followed by every major retailer in the UK as a way of minimising clothes waste and meeting quality standards. International returns are processed in the same way."
They defended their policy on faulty items as innovative and said: "Unfortunately, as with any clothing manufacturer, occasionally items are faulty and therefore don't meet our quality standards.
"Where possible we try to repair faulty items to minimise waste but regrettably some faulty items cannot be repaired and therefore aren't suitable for sale. We are always looking for innovative ways to reduce the amount of fabric that goes to landfill.
"We also offer staff the opportunity to buy items with minor faults for just £1 with all money raised from this going to a charity of the staff's choice."

Interview with Dan Chadburn, January 2013
Pianist/composer Dan Chadburn recently released Nocturnes, his first album in about thirteen years. I had reviewed his first two albums in the late '90's and then didn't hear anything at all from him until a year or so ago on Facebook. I was really excited to learn that he was working on a new album, and this new music was well worth the wait! In this interview, we chat about Nocturnes and many of the other things going on in Dan's life. If you are not familiar with Dan's music, you're in for a real treat!
Click on the album covers to see Kathy's reviews
KP: Hey Dan! I'm listening to Solo Piano (1998), your debut album, to refresh my memory. No wonder I gave your debut such a rave review! I really loved Reflections (1999), too, and then you kind of disappeared until this summer's release of Nocturnes. It's really great to have you back, although, obviously, you never really went away. What inspired you to release a new album after thirteen years?
DC: Hi Kathy! First off, let me just say, it's great to be back in touch with you! I'm grateful for all you do to promote the music of so many wonderful pianists/composers. Thank you!
You asked about the inspiration for Nocturnes. For quite some time, several friends had been encouraging me to create an album of music to "inspire, soothe, and heal." Initially conceived as a "Lullabies" album, I wanted to include music which was considerably more melodic and simple in form than the music on my earlier CDs. Following the deaths of three good friends in a span of less than six months, however, the title and concept for the album changed somewhat. In early 2012, I improvised the piano tracks which ultimately became the foundation for Nocturnes. While I had initially hoped to create music to "heal, soothe, and inspire" others, the process of creating Nocturnes was, in its own way, healing for me and other friends who were dealing with the loss of loved ones this past year.
KP: You have a strong classical background, but are also exceptionally good at improvisation. How much of Nocturnes is improvised?
DC: Each of the tracks on Nocturnes began as a piano improvisation. With the exception of the first track, "Twilight," -- which was improvised in the studio on a Steinway grand (at AirShow in Takoma Park, MD) -- each of the other tracks was improvised in my home studio using a Kurzweil PC3. Determining that a majority of those twelve improvisations would serve best as piano accompaniments (as opposed to "solo piano" pieces), I then augmented those specific improvisations with additional melodic themes scored for English horn, French horn, and Violin/Viola.
KP: Do you have any music projects you are working on now?
DC: I'm currently working on two projects…the first is a holiday season CD with my partner (Tom Nichols) for release next fall. The second is an instrumental "Tributes" or "Dedications" CD. Each track will be dedicated to a person who has been instrumental in my life. While I've yet to finalize all the details, my concept is to have the proceeds from the sale of each track donated to the favorite charity of each of the persons to whom the track is dedicated. The encouragement of family, friends and teachers to follow music as a passion in life is so very important…this CD will be a small way for me to say, "Thank you."
KP: Do you perform live often?
DC: I enjoy performing live. Because so much of my playing is improvisational, I prefer intimate settings where I can simply "let go" and allow the music to speak as it might to those listening in a quiet, candlelit room.
KP: Let's chat a bit about your background. Where were you born and where did you grow up?
DC: I was born in Roseburg, OR, in July of 1959 (my parents lived in Myrtle Creek at the time). We moved to Grants Pass (in southern Oregon) prior to starting first grade. We moved to Salem the summer prior to fourth grade, where I ultimately graduated high school, and where my parents have lived since.
KP: I really hope you'll be able to come and do a house concert the next time you're out this way!
DC: I would love that! :-)
KP: Are any of your family members musical?
DC: While neither of my parents play musical instruments per se, each loves music and encouraged my own love for music at a very young age. My mom tells the story that when I was an infant, she would often play classical music LPs on the phonograph while doing housework (this, of course, was long before cassette and 8-track tape recordings, let alone CDs). I suspect this could be one of the reasons that, while I love many genres of music, I have always been drawn to classical music. While in college, one of my favorite pieces to learn and play was the Brahms D minor Piano Concerto. I was told by my mom (after the fact) that the Brahms was one of the works she would often play on the phonograph when I was a baby.
I have two sisters and one brother…my brother enjoys playing guitar while my younger sister plays piano and is a marvelous vocalist. My other sister loves listening to music.
KP: How old were you when you started playing the piano?
DC: I was nine years old (the summer prior to 5th grade). I had always wanted to play, but my family didn't have a piano. My grandparents bought us an antique Davenport & Treacy upright grand piano as a gift and I began taking piano lessons shortly thereafter from a wonderful teacher named Maxine Martin, who was also the organist at our church.
KP: A funny coincidence - my piano teacher was Geraldine Martin, and she was also the organist at our church! How long did you take piano lessons?
DC: I studied with Mrs. Martin for eight years (5th grade through high school) and then, upon enrollment as a Piano Performance major at Pacific Lutheran University, I was fortunate and grateful to study for four years with another brilliant teacher, Dr. Calvin Knapp.
KP: Were you encouraged to improvise and/or compose by any of your teachers?
DC: While both of my teachers focused almost entirely on the importance of learning technique and the classical repertoire, both were also experienced in hymn tune improvisation as church organists. Because of that, I think they understood my own desire to improvise and compose. I learned early on, however, that if, in between lessons, I spent too much time creating my own music and not enough time practicing their assigned repertoire, the next lesson rarely went well.
KP: Funny! Do you play any instruments besides the piano?
DC: I play the organ (although I still struggle mightily with the pedals) and I can play one song on the guitar ("Silent Night" in the key of G).
KP: I'm sure a lot of contemporary guitarist are breathing a sigh of relief! How old were you when you started improvising?
DC: While I'm certain it was definitely not musical, and instead a pure nuisance for anyone who heard it, I have a distinct memory of sitting down at a piano as a five year old while my parents did custodial work in their church and being mesmerized by the sounds that came from pressing the keys and pushing the pedals - not unlike any musically curious child I suppose.
My first consistent attempts at improvisation came several years later when I began taking piano lessons. Because my piano teacher was also our church organist, I would sometimes substitute as pianist/accompanist for Sunday School. This provided me an early opportunity to experiment with playing beyond the notes on the written page.
KP: How old were you when you wrote your first song?
DC: I was ten. As part of her teaching, our elementary school's music teacher would often share lyrics and poetry with our once-a-week music class. One week, she challenged us to put one of the poems to music. Oddly enough, none of the other students even tried. I enjoyed the challenge and the exercise, and was thrilled when the teacher decided to teach the song to the 5th-6th grade choir. Several years later, while auditioning at different universities, I learned from the Dean of the School of Music at the University of Oregon that the song had since been shared with other educators as an example of what kids were doing in their elementary school music programs. Needless to say, I was both surprised and pleased.
KP: Your music teacher must have recognized your talents. It's too bad you weren't told about that earlier, though! Were you a music major in college?
DC: Yes, I majored in Piano Performance as an undergraduate and studied ElectroAcoustic Composition in grad school. So as not to delve so deeply into the avant-garde realm of ElectroAcoustic music that I'd "forget my Classical roots," I wrote my dissertation on the life and music of Sir Herbert Howells. Talk about contrasts…
KP: That's enough to cause musical whiplash! What inspired you to go to graduate school in England?
DC: Originally, I was set to go to grad school at Columbia (Teacher's College). Several months before moving to New York, however, I decided I wasn't entirely dedicated to the idea. Ultimately, I took some time off and decided instead to take an opportunity to study ElectroAcoustic Composition under Denis Smalley and Simon Emmerson in London. It was a genre of music quite unfamiliar to me at the time so I was grateful for the opportunity to learn from these two masters in the genre and grow as a composer.
KP: How long did you live and work in LA?
DC: I lived and worked in Los Angeles for six years (1987-93) and Orange County (California) for several years prior to that.
KP: Did you do a lot of film and television work?
DC: Shortly after moving to Los Angeles, I enrolled in the Film Scoring Program at UCLA and was grateful to study with several highly respected composers working in the film and television industry. Not only was it an exciting environment in which to learn the craft of scoring for film, it also provided opportunities to network with other composers interested in writing for television and film. My first television credit, in fact, came while studying at UCLA, when I wrote the screenplay and ultimately the music score for an after school special which dealt with the effects of teenage drug abuse.
KP: How long have you been in the Washington, DC area?
DC: I moved to Arlington, VA (a suburb of Washington, DC) from London in April, '95.
KP: I understand you also compose quite a bit of choral music. Tell us a bit about that.
DC: I was a member of school choruses for as long as I can remember. I've always enjoyed listening to choral music as well as the challenge of writing for chorus. Much of my early writing in high school and college was SATB and based primarily on sacred texts. In more recent years, I've had the wonderful privilege of writing several commissioned pieces with my partner, Tom Nichols, for the award-winning Gay Men's Chorus of Washington, D.C. We're extremely grateful to have a 200+ voice choir of GMCW's caliber to bring our compositions to life.
KP: Tom is also a musician. Do you work together often?
DC: We work together as often as we can. In addition to collaborating on choral works, Tom and I have written several liturgical settings together. We're also constantly listening to each other's latest solo works, giving encouragement and constructive feedback to one another. I've been honored to have him as producer for each of my recordings in the past fifteen years.
KP: What kind of music is he involved in?
DC: As a singer/songwriter, Tom's music is very eclectic, ranging from adult contemporary to country to gospel to pop. In addition to working as a producer with many artists in the Washington, DC area, Tom has also been the producer of the Choice Hotels Music Initiative, a program which matched emerging artists with charitable causes, providing more than $100,000.00 to charities such as Operation Smile, The Boys and Girls Clubs of Greater Washington, and the It Gets Better Project.
KP: Who and what are your biggest musical influences?
DC: As a composer, I would say those who have helped me to "unlock" my creative spirit...friends and family who have always encouraged me to listen to my inner voice, and not to be afraid to express, through music, the emotions I have within. My college piano professor, the late Dr. Calvin Knapp, had the biggest influence on me as a pianist. Not only did he teach me the importance of hearing every note played on the piano before it's played, thereby allowing the tone and timbre and dynamic of the note to be controlled as its played, he was an exceptional man and mentor who, without exception, always encouraged me to be the best musician and person I could be. One of his trademark philosophies, not only in teaching but also in life, was to always start a conversation (or critique) with a positive comment first.
KP: What great words of wisdom to impart to a young artist! What has been your most exciting musical moment or experience so far?
DC: I've sat here thinking about this question for nearly an hour now...and it's actually very difficult to name just one moment, in that I'm grateful for many wonderful experiences over the years. If I might name a few that immediately came to mind, they would include the thrill of conducting a studio orchestra for the first time while working in Los Angeles; writing choral works with my partner, Tom Nichols, and having them premiered and recorded by our favorite choral group, The Gay Men's Chorus of Washington, D.C.; and in a much more intimate setting, providing background music for a hospice care celebration of life service in Virginia a few months ago...
KP: Is there a particular philosophy that you try to convey in your music?
DC: My hope is that when people hear my music, they will be touched or moved in a positive way...that the music is a catalyst for calm and peace, strength and healing...
KP: Who are some of your favorite composers?
DC: John Williams, Aaron Copland, Sergei Rachmaninoff, Leonard Bernstein, Claude Debussy, Frederic Chopin, Sergei Prokofiev, George Winston, and yes, my partner Tom Nichols.
KP: Who are some of your favorite performers?
DC: Josh Groban, George Winston, Michael Buble, Itzhak Perlman, Vladimir Ashkenazy, Mary Ann Redmond, Barbra Streisand, and Tom Nichols.
KP: If you could have any three wishes, what would they be?
DC: Thankful for the opportunities I was given as a child, I would wish that every child who has the desire to play a musical instrument would have the chance to do so...I would wish that each of them has a teacher or mentor to encourage them to honor music for what it is: a wonderful gift...and I would wish the world to benefit by the music these children create...
KP: What's up next for you?
DC: Besides our current music projects, on a personal note, Tom and I recently became engaged (with our wedding date set for June 1, 2013). Needless to say, we're excited to enter this new stage in our lives together. The big question our friends are asking is, "Who's going to do the music at your wedding?" :-)
KP: Wow!!! Congratulations! That's really exciting! Is there anything else you'd like to "talk" about?
DC: I'd just like to thank you again, Kathy, for all you do to highlight and share the music of so many pianists/composers. It's an honor to be included among them. Thank you, my friend!
KP: You are more than welcome, Dan!

Q: Why are neural networks trained in batches? When training a neural network with back propagation, I have often seen that data is processed in batches. So instead of computing and updating the gradient for each training sample, the average gradient is calculated over multiple samples, this is used for the update.
What is the reason for this? Is it because it is faster to train as you update the weights less frequently? Or is it because training over multiple samples avoids overfitting to the individual samples? If the latter is try, then why not train over all the samples at once, rather than dividing it into batches at all?
Thank!

A: The latter is true. It would be nice to train on the whole dataset, but the dataset is often too large for it to be technically feasible, at least in image analysis applications.

LinkedIn has been around since 2003, and has more than 400 million users across 200 countries, and happens to be a very powerful tool when it comes to networking with key people in almost any industry. Plus, the caliber of people it attracts is very interesting, every user has an average household income of $109,000. And most users on Linkedin are looking for partnerships and business deals, making it a very effective tool for business.
Tip 1: Complete your profile. Completing your profile in full is among the top Linkedin best practices. According to Forbes, members with 100% full profiles receive 46% more profile page views than those who don't.
-A profile picture: It should be your headshot facing the camera with a plain background. Avoid cropped pictures or blurry ones as you can come across as unprofessional.
-A headline: Your headline should act as your unique selling proposition, also known as "marketing hook". Avoid just listing your job title, as a Linkedin headline should be benefit driven. For example, instead of writing "Webinar Expert", write "I help businesses generate online sales of $5,000 to $30,000 or more every month starting from scratch".
-A summary: A Linkedin summary is the first element of your profile people read so it's important to list your important accomplishments, your values, your passion, your mission, your skills, your experience, your uniqueness, your education or qualifications and endorsements. Add the bottom of your summary, remember to add a call to action.
-Your experience: In this section break down your achievements in chronological order to underline your experience and skills in your subject. Avoid turning this section into an online version of your resume.
-You skills: List 10 skills relevant to your area of expertise. The more endorsements you receive for each skill, the higher the chance of making your profile rank higher in Linkedin's search results.
By following the Linkedin best practices mentioned above, your profile will almost act as a sales page for you and your business. Plus, your profile should include certain keywords so it is optimised for search.
Ideally, you should aim at being "advanced", "expert" or "all star".
Tip 2: Grow your connections. If you are on Linkedin, aim at having a minimum of 500 connections. There are many ways you can do so. You can use the "advanced search" tool, to find key people to connect with and then send them a personalized connection request. This will take time but a high percentage of people will accept your connection request.
You can also send connection requests to people who have given you their business cards.
Another option is adding a Linkedin badge on your website and the link to your Linkedin profile below every email you send.
Linkedin also allows you to send connection requests to your entire email database, in just a few clicks.
Remember, the more connections you have, the greater your reach and the more opportunities you will have to get in touch with potential clients and business partners.
Tip 3: Post compelling and relevant content.
Like any social network, Linkedin is a powerful content marketing tool. It allows you to publish 2 types of content. The first type is "updates" which are short posts and the second type is "posts" which allows you to publish long-form posts.
In order for your content to remain relevant and compelling, make sure you use Linkedin's "trending content tool" and its "content marketing score".
The trending content tool ranks the topics that resonate the most with your specific audience so you can tailor your content accordingly and give people more of what they want.
The content marketing score tool measures your audience's engagement with your content and provides recommendation on how to improve.
By tracking your content using both tools and improving your content following the Linkedin guide above, don't be surprised if you start experiencing more engagement and generating more buzz.
So I hope you've enjoyed this Linkedin guide on the top 3 Linkedin tips for business. Remember to share it and leave a comment below. And, to receive more social media tips, make sure you subscribe to our Youtube channel.
The RSS feed is now available. Anything else you need, let us know!
I think when we think about building social profiles, all that comes to our minds is Facebook or Twitter. LinkedIn often goes ignored and I think you have made a good point here that LinkedIn profiles can help you build a good authority within the community.

eBay India's new PR lead, Girish Huria, says merchants and consumers' are top priority
Girish Huria, who takes over as communications lead at eBay India from today, told PRmoment India that, "The three important stakeholders for eBay in India are its merchants, consumers and employees and ensuring brand relevance and preference for eBay with each of these stakeholders will be the most important communication priority."
Girish Huria was COO with Avian Media and now takes over at eBay India from Deepa Thomas. Deepa moved to the Mahindra Group in August as General Manager, Group Communications at Mahindra and Mahindra.
Commenting on the growth of ecommerce in India, Girish said that, "The e-commerce sector in India has been quite dynamic in the last few years and many companies have been able to generate brand awareness and visibility in the market due to capital investments. However, the two key drivers of the e-commerce sector are the consumers and the merchants. What will be important in the long run is how one creates stickiness with these two key audiences and at eBay in India we are highly focused on creating value for these two specific audiences. If our consumers continue to prefer us and our merchants remain committed to the brand, then we believe our brand will continue to remain relevant in the market and that is what will differentiate eBay in India."
E-commerce has regularly featured in the news lately. In August, Flipkart raised 1 billion dollars in fresh capital from both new and existing investors, while Amazon is currently in the news due to a high profile visit to India by Jeff Bezoz.

Q: Python wheel not supported on this plattform I tried to install the mysqlclient-module for python 3.8. I ran into several problems while doing so that are described in other posts. I then tried to install it on another pc where it worked. On the first one it downloaded the mysql.tar.gz file and tried to build the file by itself(failed due to another error). But on the other pc it instead downloaded the 1.4.6-cp38-cp38-win_amd64.whl file and installed it correctly. Both machines run Windows 10 and when running platform.architecture() i receive the same result on both. I even tried installing the wheel manually on the first machine where i got the "not supported wheel on this plattform". The only difference i found in the systemversions is the build which is 17763 on the one it worked and 18363 on the one it didnt work (although i believe this shouldnt be the source)

A: After trying around a bit i realized this error only occurs while beeing in the virtual enviroment in pycharm on the first machine. I was able to install it outside of the virtual enviroment and then copy the created files manually to the virtual enviroment.

Visual Report Builder: Can we create date field vs weight field in line graph?
I am not sure exactly what you are trying to achieve here?
I presume that you would like to have a graph instead of the grid showing you this data?
If not, could you please give us a bit more details in regards to this?
I would like to be able to show both the table and the graph.
I don't think the current graph function can achieve this, but such a graph would be useful for showing how any numerical or financial data changes over time.
Thanks for following up all our queries.
I've cloned your form and made some test submissions in my end, unfortunately, it seems like we can't create a line graph with the "Action Date" as a comparison for the weight data.
I can forward this to our developers and see if they can add these feature to the form visual report builder. Unfortunately, I cannot guarantee that the changes will take effect immediately anytime soon or if it will be considered, but we will update you through this thread when we hear any news. What I could recommend is that you integrate using the Google Spreadsheet instead, here's a guide on that: http://www.jotform.com/help/228-How-to-Integrate-Form-with-Google-Spreadsheet. It will give you more options and advance features to create graphs for your submissions.
Thank you for trying out the graphing function. I was fairly sure it could not be done but, particularly as a new user, I still have plenty to learn and sometimes don't realise what is possible.
I would appreciate if you could add it to the list of improvements to be considered by the developers, though I realise that even if it is acted on it may take some time.
No worries, everything can be learned. I would advise that you check our "Support" pages so to learn more about our form builder. You can check our List of Comprehensive User Guide and our YouTube Channel for tutorials. You might also check our Apps and Widgets page for tools that you can use to make your forms more productive.
Thank you for your patience and understanding, we'll update you as soon as we hear any news on this. But as I've mentioned earlier, I think the Google Spreadsheet integration would be the best solution for now.
The problem with Google spreadsheet, I think, is that I would have to go in and manually update the graphs, because new data (form data from JotForm), though automatically loaded into the spreadsheet, may not be automatically included in reports that I might construct similar to the JotForm Visual Report grids/graphs.
My brain is a bit tired after working out workarounds for searching on two fields in Grids and Submissions, and for sorting by date in Visual Report Grids.
Perhaps tomorrow I can tackle Google spreadsheet graphs!! Does anyone have any ideas on how to implement automatically updated graphs using filtered JotForm data in Google Spreadsheets?
That will show you how to create a chart and on the right you will see the links to other segments that can also be useful.
Now the trick with the charts is that you do not need to give it specific A2+B2 cell addresses, but you can also give them a range where the data is, so knowing this, you can give it (for example) A2:D1000 range to look for the values.
Hopefully this has provided you with enough data to use it.
Thank you for your words of advice. I will try to tackle the Google graphs in the next few days.
As always I appreciate your prompt service and courteous manner.

Q: I can't integrate a Web Template purchased into Meteor thanks for read
I have a problem, I hope some orientation because always I worked only with bootstrap. Never with css, js, or templates. But this case is diferent.
I bought a template in wrapbootstrap.com
As you know, this templates coming with a big set number files like a js, img, fonts, and of course html. Of course not always this packages are in NPM, and that is all a problem, because if only one missing file, for some reason many components dont work as well like I expect. So, the solution is, although no elegant but efective, is copy and paste these files that I bought in a correct directory in meteor.
I need integrate this template into meteor, I find in web tha Meteor.startup() help. This code help a little to solve, but no solve the problem.
I have the next issue:
Sometimes the template is good, works fine and very well, sometimes is very, very bad and infinite erros.
Next a img

As you can see: Window on right is perfect, everithings well. The window on left is bad, and with errors. Why? sometimes good, sometimes bad
next my file structure:

my file client/main.js has the next lines:
import angular from 'angular';
import angularMeteor from 'angular-meteor';
import uiRouter from 'angular-ui-router';

import 'bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.css';
import 'bootstrap/dist/js/bootstrap.js';

import {name as Inicio} from '../imports/ui/components/views/inicio/inicio';

class Main {} // EMPYT

Meteor.startup(function () {$.getScript('js/jquery-2.1.3.min.js', function () {});});
Meteor.startup(function () {$.getScript('bootstrap/js/bootstrap.min.js', function () {});});
Meteor.startup(function () {$.getScript('js/jquery.superslides.min.js', function () {});});
Meteor.startup(function () {$.getScript('js/jquery.mb.YTPlayer.min.js', function () {});});
Meteor.startup(function () {$.getScript('js/jquery.magnific-popup.min.js', function () {});});

const name = 'main';

export default angular.module('myApp', [
    angularMeteor,
    uiRouter,
    Inicio
])
    .config(config);

function config($locationProvider, $urlRouterProvider, $stateProvider) {
    'ngInject';
    $locationProvider.html5Mode(true);
    $urlRouterProvider.otherwise('/inicio');

}

My questions:

*

*Is a good way to import files like this?

*Iam doing something wrong?

*Exist other way?
Please need help, due I don't understand the File Structure documentation.
I need a example.
Thanks for your time and read
Aditional notes:

*

*My file client/main.less is empyt, no conflict with it

*/lib directory is empyt

*Am working with Angular, AngularMeteor, UiRoute

*For now, all html is in imports\ui\components\views\inicio\inicio.html

*Imposible rename the js files with a number before the name, like _1appear.js, the template don't works that way

*The load order is like the template indicates, like as my client/main.js has.

*If I put my js files into a client/compatibility appear more errors.

*I new in Meteor but not in Tempaltes Web, I integrated more templates in fullstack with yeoman and grunt, no problems, but in meteor is very dificult.

A: You need to port those files to use modules (or find already-wrapped versions on npm), so that they can be bundled up in the correct order with the rest of your JS code.

Never let it be said that the west end doesn't have high end restaurants - there are a wealth of brilliant places to eat in this end of Glasgow, some serving loyal customers for decades now.
Still, there are places that just wouldn't have - couldn't have - existed in the city a few decades ago.
Gather by Zique is one of those - not fussy but decidedly upmarket, and not afraid to band about ingredients that you can't pronounce but might just love.
The latest addition to the Zique family replaces Delizique, although Cafezique remains a few doors down for all your brunch needs.
This place is lunch and dinner, it's a Sunday roast to remember or a special meal with visiting family - not cheap, certainly, but eye-catching and intriguing enough to create a bit of buzz around Partick.
Where is it and what does it look like?
You'll find the small restaurant on the hill of Hyndland Street, just down from Cottiers. The decor might just catch your eye - there's a lampshade doing a good impression of the Crystal Maze in the window and a well-stocked bar at window level.
Head inside and you'll find a very cosy bar area for drinks and nibbles, and a mezzanine restaurant above. The decor is quirky - colourful cushions, vintage fishing rods displayed on the walls and a 3D map spanning the ceiling that you may spend half your time staring at in sheer wonder. It's not a flashy place, but you can tell that every detail has been chosen for a reason. It feels plush, without being overly fancy.
The menu is relatively small but perfectly formed, each dish vague but intriguing and spanning meat, fish and vegetables in the spotlight in equal measures - it's a selection you could pore over for hours if you're interested in food, a welcome break from the usual.
We started with goats curd gnocchi with sage, lemon and caper butter and confit lamb croquettes with whipped goats cheese, a sharp pickled salad and pomegranate seeds. The first was brilliant; salty cheese patties perfectly paired with the herbs and sharp lemon and caper. The second was even better - a highlight of the whole meal, in fact - with tender, pull-apart lamb covered in crispy breadcrumbs.
This is grown up cooking and it's a delight to see it in a neighbourhood kitchen, a place usually reserved for steaks and burgers.
I moved on to hake fillet with chickpeas, squid and mussel stew, nduja and aioli, one of the dishes Gather has been teasing with on Facebook for weeks. The fish was well cooked and the aioli was brilliant, as was the crispy squid perched on top, although the broth lacked the spicy punch promised - my only complaint in an otherwise tasty dish.
That may have have been the food envy talking - because the other half's porchetta, a Sunday roast special, was just that. An enormous round of pork arrived at the table, stuffed with herby gremolata and surrounded by grilled apple. Super crispy roast potatoes with a spicy nduja topping made for one of the best roasts I've tasted in Glasgow. If you do one thing this Sunday, make it a visit to Gather by Zique, for this dish alone.
The a la carte menu has plenty to warrant a return visit, from Barra scallops to langoustine arancini or ox cheek ravioli on the starters to whole harissa mackerel or puy lentils with deep fried artichoke on the mains.
The desserts sounds tempting too, although we didn't have room after two courses - and on that note, it's worth remembering that you can sample two courses for £17 or three for £21 on the set lunch (12-3pm Friday to Sunday) and early bird (5-6.30pm Wednesday to Saturday) menus.
The canapés menu is there too, meant for pairing up with a cocktail or two in the bar area - think confit mackerel on toast or deep fried green olives stuffed with goats cheese.
As mentioned above, there are set menu options - if you lean towards the a la carte then starters are £6-£12, mains £12-£21.
Our bill for two (with two pints of Sam Smith) came to £59.50, a not unreasonable cheque for the standard of food on offer - or how full we left the place.
This is proper, grown up food but without the pretension - and with sizeable portions to fill you up too. It's exactly the kind of place Glasgow needs more of, whether that's in the trendiest corners of the city centre or the wee place round the corner from your flat, the restaurant you can stumble home from after a filling Sunday lunch. Long may it continue, Gather by Zique - we can't wait to see what else you've got.

Burlington Personal Injury Attorneys
More than 100 Years of Combined Experience
How to handle workers compensation cases in New Jersey
On behalf of Smith Magram Michaud Colonna, P.C. | Jan 4, 2016 | Workers' Compensation
By providing prompt care to an injured worker, it may be possible to keep workers' compensation costs down for New Jersey employers. In 30 percent of cases, a worker may be able to self-treat an injury, which would eliminate the need for a trip to the emergency room that could cost $1,000 or more. However, employers should always proper care regardless of what is needed to help an employee recover and get back to work.
When an employee reports an injury and seeks treatment, the first person that he or she should talk to is a triage nurse. Workers tend to be more open and honest when talking to a medical professional instead of a claims representative. Nurses may also be better at recording key details regarding the injury and how it occurred in a timely manner.
Employers should be engaged with employees throughout the claim process and review a pending claim regularly. Initial statements should be recorded and referred to at regular intervals. Employer engagement can reduce employee frustration and make it less likely that he or she will seek the help of an attorney to resolve the case instead. When both sides work together, it may be possible to come to a mutually beneficial resolution that provides for the worker while controlling costs for the employer.
A worker who is hurt on the job may be entitled to disability benefits, which may be offered on a temporary basis or permanently depending on the severity of the injury, and they may help a worker pay medical expenses and other living expenses. An attorney may be able to review a case to determine what type of benefits an individual may be entitled to and how long such benefits will be offered for.

This model looks lovely in the Will Pants but in this picture you can really see how high the rise is when the pants are not folded over, and you can also see how the ties look underneath a sweater. I still want to try them on but I'm not sure how they will work for me. Love the idea of them though.
I wonder what is in the background of the bottom pic on the right side!!?

Broome County's drug treatment center plans to move into phase two
Drug Epidemic, Top Stories
TOWN OF DICKINSON (WBNG) — County and state officials are saying Broome County's drug treatment center, Helio Health, has played a factor in lowering the number of opioid deaths in the county.
Helio Health is now moving forward to implement phase two.
That will include residential treatment, with longer stays, something officials say is much needed in the Southern Tier.
Right now, Helio Health offers medically supervised withdrawal, a treatment that typically only lasts four to seven days.
Officials say they think it has helped fight opioid numbers in the area, but there is still a lot more work to be done.
"Treatment doesn't end after the fifth day after you detox, treatment is a process that takes months and months," said Broome County Executive Jason Garnar.
Phase two looks to open up more options to the people of the Southern Tier.
"There's still a concern that some folks still have to leave the community for treatment. We don't want that, we want to be able to keep people here," said Helio Health CEO Jeremy Klemanski.
The Helio Health facility and its expansion into phase two is funded by state dollars.
"There was not a new tax levy to pay for this. There was already money in the treatment system that was appropriated to help pay for this facility," said Klemanski.
County Executive Garnar says it's actually saving the county money.
"When people get help, when they recover, when they stop using heroin, not only are we saving lives, we're saving taxpayer dollars because that's fewer services that people are going to require," said Garnar.
And the planning for Phase two only comes after what state and local officials call a successful first six months of Helio Health.
Tuesday, they gathered at the center, stepping up to the podium to speak about its achievements.
385 people were admitted to Helio Health during its time open thus far.
"You can potentially say there's a number of lives, that have been saved in all those numbers," said State Assemblyman Clifford Crouch.
100 percent of the people were from upstate New York, with 65 percent from Broome County alone.
That was something the community was concerned about, before the treatment center opened.
"There were plenty of critics and pundits at the time we were having the initial conversation, that were sure that people would be coming from Detroit and New York City, and Philadelphia and you inundate our community, but that's just not the case," said State Senator Fred Akshar.
Garnar says the facility is the right size for the Southern Tier, and he thinks that is what has contributed to its success.
Klemnski says since Phase Two is in its beginning design stages, there is not yet a timeline as to when it will be implemented.

Q: Algebraic closed field has infinite many elements Show that an algebraic closed field must have infinite many elements.
Let's suppose that an algebraic closed field $K$ has finite many elements.
But how could I get a contradiction??

A: Suppose $K=\{a_1, \ldots ,a_n\}$, for some natural number $n$.
Consider the polynomial $f(x)=(x-a_1)(x-a_2)\ldots(x-a_n)+1$.
Since you assumed that $K$ is algebraically closed, there is a root $a$ of $f(x)$ in $K$, that is $f(a_i)=0$, for some $i\in \{1, \ldots ,n\}$.
Try to get a contradiction.


The Benedictine sisters of Kylemore Abbey in County Galway and the Kylemore Abbey Campaign in New York City are proud to announce that the goal for the new education center has been reached. Over one hundred gifts, mostly local donations, propelled the amount raised to $205,000!
John Feerick, former dean of Fordham Law School and head of the Feerick Social Justice Center, led the charge to help the sisters. Others on the board are assistant dean Robert Reilly, law school alumni: James Tolan, Dennis Kenny, John McEnroe, Dennis Lynch, Domhnall O'Cathain, Geraldine Cunningham, Virginia Ryan; also Adrian Flannelly (Irish Radio USA), Eva-Maria Streier (Director of the German Foundation in NY) and Fr. John McGuire, OP (Pastor of St. Joseph's Church) and two alumnae of the former Kylemore Abbey School, Rosalind Secker Walker and Juliet Wallace.
Sr. Maire Hickey, OSB the Abbess of Kylemore Abbey stated, "It is not easy to find words to express the deep gratitude of all of our community in Kylemore on receiving the news that on St. Patrick's Day that the Campaign target of $200,000 for our new Education Centre had been reached. We are facing big challenges in Kylemore, if this beautiful place is to survive with a strong spiritual message into the future. Your love and support over the past months, ending with this wonderful gift, have given us courage and hope that it will not be long before we can get to work on the project of renovating and modernizing our former boarding-school premises into an educational facility that will be serving the needs of our time".
The second phase of the campaign is unfolding and will entail replacing or repairing all 72 windows of the first floor of the historic castle. This will be a major project for the abbey and will give donors a chance to "name a window" as a means of recognizing loved ones.
Well done, Kylemore Friends! Bravo!
I know John McGuire rather well, from his time as Director of the Catholic Center at NYU more than a decade ago.
Thanks Gerry, Fr. McGuire is still the Director of the Catholic Center at NYU. He is a longtime friend of Kylemore Abbey and the sisters, he visits every year and we are lucky to have him as a new board member!
Indeed, John is a very charismatic fellow. Does he have roots in Galway?


00:26 <fman> anyone know if myth build ok on PPC machines?
00:29 <DogBoy> do the tv cards work there?
01:37 <michal> hi.. does anyone here know if it's possible to get an ir keyboard to work as a linux keyboard via lirc?
01:45 <Truin> at first, I thought it was the audio sampling rate.. ya know, 32kHz vs 48kHz. So, in the frontend settings, I sat the Default recording profile to use 48000. Consequently, it won't let me set it back to 32000 now, and I still can't get video and audio in sync.
01:49 <Truin> I *do* like how nuvexport reads the mythconverg db to get recorded program info... that's pretty handy!
02:22 <DJ_Rican> no... what post?
03:05 <Octane> anyone know the xine cmd line to play vcd?
03:43 <Chutt> all in favor of removing one 'brad allen' from the mailing list?
03:44 <Octane> LOL what the hell!!
03:44 <Chutt> very, very, very carefully if I were you.
03:45 <Octane> make sur eyou pay attention to the article he posted from 1997!!
03:53 <Chutt> all the time?
03:59 <Octane> you knwo what made me find mythtv?
03:59 <Octane> "what should i do with this celeron 333?"
03:59 <Octane> and someone was like, "mythtv!"
04:15 <Octane> but who cares!
04:26 <ShockValue> when I "modprobe ivtv" it says module not found.. but if i insmod it with the full path it works ok.. any clue?
04:26 <tharvey> anyone know a good way to check a file to make sure its executable by current process?
04:26 <knight-> ShockValue, have you run depmod -a?
04:28 <knight-> dependencies will be available immediately after booting the system.
04:28 <Chutt> tharvey, i assume that's for your imdb perl script?
04:28 <knight-> Note that the option -a is now optional.
04:28 <knight-> now rmmod ivtv, then modprobe.
04:30 <Chutt> i didn't check, but you're not using any non-standard perl modules, right?
04:30 <knight-> He's using libwww isnt he?
04:31 <ShockValue> i think once i get myth setup like i want (liek 20 years from now at this rate ;) i;m going to se about coding an album-cover display for mythmusic.
04:32 <Chutt> someone just submitted one.
04:32 <ShockValue> oh :) good, then i can just go back to drinking.
04:33 <knight-> Chutt, anyone submitted general developer docs?
04:34 <ShockValue> any of you use a pvr250 with standard cable tv coax input?
04:34 <Chutt> that'd be cool.
04:35 <ShockValue> on setup option #3, what input should i choose? i understand that adding the wrong ones can cause display issues.
04:35 <ShockValue> (like tuner -> video0, composite -> ?) etc?
04:35 <knight-> Chutt, where would you like to see the theme installer? Settings?
04:36 <ShockValue> sorry for newb questions.. tonight is the first time ive gotten video out of the cat /dev/video0 command after fighting with it for 2 weeks.
04:38 <knight-> ShockValue, I'm sure you already know, but the docs and the mailing lists are a resource of valuable information for most problems.
04:38 <ShockValue> yeah, i surf gossamerthreads at work and i have a 100 page printout on my lap.. it was just ivtv was being stubborn.
04:39 * ShockValue flips to the 3rd section of his Myth Handbook.
05:30 <orangebits> Has anyone got any experience with using tv_grab_uk_rt to get non-south-east channel listings?
06:54 <ceed> are there any great differences between old and new models of a Hauppauge WinTV PVR 250 ?
06:57 <ceed> humm what do i need an output port for?
07:08 <ceed> why would you prefer the software decoding?
07:09 <Peit|Home> rule how's your epia handling mpeg4 decoding?
07:10 <Peit|Home> they all do fm and teletext don't they?
07:10 <Peit|Home> sure its a 250, not a straight pvr?
07:12 <ceed> should i get a recent 250 then or can i go with this old one?
07:13 <ceed> is the encoder good enough?
07:17 <ceed> i head the xbox makes a good frontend to mythtv?
07:18 <Peit|Home> rule so you only playback mpeg2 captures on your epia board?
07:19 <Rule> Peit|Home, currently I use the pvr350, but I can play anything on the epia really..
07:24 <ceed> i got an old one with does the frontend decode the mpeg2 stream, or does the server do it?
07:24 <ceed> erm, does the frontend decode the mpeg2 stream, or does the server do it?
07:35 <Rule> does anyone here have a mythtv auto-archive method set up ? (transcode to xvid or so) ?
07:38 <ceed> sorry to be repetitive, but does the frontend (i.e. the xbox) handle the decoding, or the server?
07:39 <ceed> and if the devoding is done on the server side, does that go to the xbox over ethernet or do i have to add another a/v-cable?
07:43 <Peit|Home> Rule: i've heard the epia mepg2 out isn't anywhere near as nice as the 350... have you compared them?
07:53 <Snappi> anyone know why?
07:55 <Snappi> I want this mythmusic/metadata.sql because it says "database is out of whack"
07:56 <sfr> iirc starting with 0.13 and up the database tables are created automatically. just create the db and the db user and you are set.
07:56 <Snappi> what is the name of the database?
07:57 <ceed> what is preferable? pvr350 hardware mpeg output or xbox software decoding?
07:57 <Snappi> can xbox take tv-in?
08:05 <sfr> Snappi: you see the mysql> prompt?
08:06 <Snappi> what do I do in the mysql promt?
08:06 <sfr> Snappi: what mysql user did you define in mysql.txt for mythtv to use then?
08:06 <Snappi> mysql < /usr/share/mythtv/database/mc.sql right?
08:09 <Snappi> were do I define the path to search for music in?
08:12 <Snappi> u know why I can only see TV in tvtime and not in mythtv?
08:12 <Snappi> and when I rip music it creats flac and not mp3. can I change that some how?
08:34 <Snappi> are there any plans on making a shoutcast plugin?
09:07 <Snappi> I have choosed language=swedish and mysql show this but mythfronted havn't changed languages?
09:07 <Snappi> anyone had this problem?
09:10 <Snappi> can u see if u can change to swedish?
09:13 <thor_> you are 100% sure you pushed the _Finish_ button ?
09:16 <Snappi> thor_, are u running gentoo?
09:16 <Snappi> or another dist?
09:37 <Peit|Home> the author of mythweb doesn't come on here does he?
09:45 <o_cee> thor_: did you see me msg?
09:48 <thor_> permssions on the dirs?
10:05 <o_cee> i could send the stuff to you soonish if you've got time?
10:06 <o_cee> gimme a minute..
10:10 <o_cee> or do you want it via email?
10:11 <o_cee> on its way..
10:16 <servo> lol I swear mythtv is gonna be the death of me!
10:17 <servo> The first day I install it; 90% of it works. I have sound, and video, in NTSC... The next day NTSC began looking as pal (all messy) though NTSC was enables... and sound was fine... Today I only get a black screen and no audio... AHH!
10:19 <servo> I have a question: Should I run mythbackend as root or as a normal user?
10:19 <o_cee> thor_: got it yet?
10:23 <o_cee> did you look at the albumviz stuff yet?
10:24 <o_cee> what kind of tvcard?
10:25 <o_cee> allright.. you able to do normal tests, like cat /dev/video0 or whatever you do with those cards?
10:31 <servo> how would I view the table?
10:31 <o_cee> view channels; ? is that right?
10:31 <crabchips> how well would a mini-itx system work for frontend?
10:32 <o_cee> but iwht pvr2/350's right?
10:35 <o_cee> might have missed a file or soemthing..
10:44 <crabchips> guys, is 802.11g sufficient for streaming playback?
10:45 <pahli_bar> crabchips: check the user archives, you will find some answers there!
10:49 <pahli_bar> o_cee: is gant going to be the default for 0.14?
10:59 <Snow-Man> How do you get the myhthfrontend to talk to a backend on a different server?
11:01 <Peit|Home> doesn't the master backend handle all the re-directs?
11:01 <Snow-Man> mdz: I was going to ask you how to get mythfrontend to talk to a backend server on a different host, since the debconf stuff doesn't appear to do anything.
11:01 <Snow-Man> Peit|Home: Got me.. How would that work?
11:02 <Peit|Home> dunno how it does, i could guess, but as i'm waiting until tonight to setup my second backend..
11:04 <Snow-Man> It looks like the frontend can talk to the backend database, at least.
11:05 <Snow-Man> drd-: Oh, really? Just what should I put in there?
11:06 <Snow-Man> Ah, right, so, not at all what I'm referring to, then.
11:06 <Snow-Man> And, in fact, I already said that the frontend can talk to the database, which means that's all correct already.
11:06 <drd-> <Snow-Man> mdz: I was going to ask you how to get mythfrontend to talk to a backend server on a different host, since the debconf stuff doesn't appear to do anything.
11:07 <Snow-Man> drd-: The debconf stuff doesn't do anything and obviously there's more that has to be done than changing the couple values in mysql.txt.
11:08 <drd-> u mean u want to make the mythbackend run on different computer than mysqld ?
11:09 <drd-> in mythsetup did u put in ip address of network card interface?
11:09 <Snow-Man> Connection timed out.
11:09 <Snow-Man> Getting closer at least.
11:11 <Snow-Man> There we go. Odd that I had to modify the BackendServerIP for the server host, but, whatever.
11:13 <o_cee> thor_: hmm, but why does type/ and some music/ stuff work?
11:17 <Snow-Man> Alright, what's with that?
11:17 <Snow-Man> Should I increase the buffering size or something?
11:17 <Snow-Man> Heh, if there's a way to?
11:18 <crabchips> i'm seeing conflicting information.. does the 250 have hardware encoding? or just the 350?
11:20 <Zeran> you know the menu/dialog which appears if you are watching live TV and a recording is about to start?
11:21 <Zeran> if you don't answer in time..
11:21 <Zeran> what is meant to happen?
11:22 <servo> is there like a text file output of the ./setup program I can edit?
11:23 <pahli_bar> machine froze up: as in x11 froze up. linux froze up. myth froze up.
11:23 <servo> ok so it's in the database?
11:24 <pahli_bar> kernel driver issues..
11:24 <servo> the database is called mythconverg right?
11:24 <sfr> Snow-Man: with latest cvs i also see the prebuffering pauses. they usually start after a few channel changes, and also the cpu load is (much) higher than with live-tv just started.
11:25 <Snow-Man> sfr: This is when trying to watch a recording.
11:26 <Snow-Man> I see it when watching live tv too though.
11:26 <Snow-Man> I think anyway.
11:26 <pahli_bar> its like saying I tried to download this huge file and machine froze up.
11:28 <racer32> Pahli: i saw your patch for mythnews, is there also hope for Gallery?
11:29 <crabchips> can you watch live tv with two different channels on two frontends with only one tv card on the backend?
11:30 <racer32> so pahli whats next on your list?
11:30 <racer32> i like the work you are doing!
11:30 <pahli_bar> heh. just kidding.
11:31 <o_cee> pahli_bar: have you looked at photoshop album?
11:32 <pahli_bar> o_cee: i have read the reviews yes.
11:35 <pahli_bar> racer32: thumbs are gone from the folder thumbnails?
11:39 <pahli_bar> racer32: let me recreate the exact scenario here.
11:40 <pahli_bar> racer32: root folder has one folder. two subfolders for root. subfolders have images in them. correct?
11:42 <racer32> am i clear?
11:52 <racer32> but now the root screen does not show a thumb at all for the sub!
11:53 <racer32> i don't know if it is meant this way?
11:54 <pahli_bar> racer32: pardon me. just trying to get all info.
11:55 <racer32> hope for a little buggie!
11:56 <racer32> in the root, it contains all the subs except one!
12:00 <racer32> but if i look in a different thumbcache (random folder) i see JPG files! So root thumbcache is not jpg?
12:02 <racer32> except for the root it has no extension?
12:03 <racer32> Oops :) good reason yes!
12:04 <racer32> so why not cache the folder with the sub folders? My specific problem?
12:05 <racer32> my folder name contains spaces, could that be the problem?
12:12 <racer32> heh :) if i go in and out, sometimes the thumb will show up!
12:12 <racer32> don't know in what order or how often i did it but there is a thumb now!
12:12 <racer32> how can i check?
12:14 <pahli_bar> racer32: what distro?
12:22 <ceed> uh damnit, anyone from germany around?
12:30 <servo> I need helping in reading the configuration database of mythtv. I was told that the setup information was stored in mythconverg, but in what table exactly?
12:31 <ceed> sfr: i found a "tvtoday grabber"
12:36 <servo> ok; if I clear all the data in the mythconverg.settings; will they be refilled after I run ./setup and mythfilldatabase?
12:40 <sfr> servo: why don't you just replace the old hostname with the new one in the settings table?
12:42 <Chutt> or just edit mysql.txt and tell it to use your old hostname.
12:44 <pahli_bar> Chutt has been toppled. Jarod is the new "PVR architect"
12:45 <_rkulagow> plenty of people think that because i wrote the howto _i'm_ the primary programmer, even though i explicitly state right at the top of the HOWTO that i'm not.
12:46 <thor_> Chutt, you want that --with-broken-cdda thingy in mythmusic ./configure ?
12:52 <_rkulagow> you know, stan might just be dyslexic rather than a moron.
12:53 <_rkulagow> or only posts when he's drunk.
12:53 <_rkulagow> today's the last day for that $70 MVP 1000 from circuit city. hope my gift card arrives today.
12:54 <_rkulagow> i was surprised that my XBOX doesn't deinterlace DVDs correctly using the native DVD dongle thingy when running in native xbox mode.
12:57 <jDeGraw> Where do you find info for setting up a cutlist for comercials?
13:08 <racer32> you changed something else, except debug info?
13:09 <racer32> it works now!
13:10 <pahli_bar> Chutt: is the anonymous and ssh cvs in sync?
13:11 <o_cee> thor_: could you explain the problem to Chutt?
13:15 <racer32> think i'm going crazy!
13:16 <racer32> i'll go and test it now on my TV set!
13:21 * DJ_Rican can get lirc working with irw but not irxevent! any ideas?
13:39 <Truin`> if anyone is a blind op, can you /kick Truin ??
13:41 <Truin`> 'kill' is a wonderful thing. ;) Never mind.
13:50 <Sanguine> dag nab it.. im soo close!
13:50 <Truin`> using ivtv or bttv?
13:51 <Truin`> hm. I get that occasionally, but only if I've been using xine to watch TV for like 2 hours. Then I have to reboot to get it to unlock the card.
13:52 <Truin`> /dev/video0 need only be 660 with your user as the owner.... but, anyway... hm. Lemme think.
13:52 <Truin`> Which version of ivtv?
13:52 <Truin`> ok, so you have the latest. Good. Uhm... are the options to the modules correct in modules.conf?
13:53 <Sanguine> good question. i copied them from a howto - i wasnt comfortable enough to change them.
13:53 <cbreen> anyone get lirc transmitter to work?
13:53 <Truin`> any errors in dmesg after you insmode/modprobe ??
13:53 <Truin`> erm, insmod, I mean. Stupid E key.
13:54 <Truin`> first of all, if you're not using the lirc stuff, remove it from modules.conf.
13:54 <cbreen> i'm wondering about the driver configuration (trainsmitter diode, software generated carrier, ...) which of those do I need ?
13:54 <Sanguine> so the last line.. yeah?
13:56 <Truin`> also, open a second terminal and 'tail -f /var/log/messages' for errors.
13:57 <Sanguine> ivtv: i2c client addr: 0x61 not found!
13:57 <Sanguine> ivtv: i2c client addr: 0x40 not found!
14:05 <Truin`> why is it not loading tuner, or saa7115, or the msp3400 module, or anything? That's odd.
14:06 <Truin`> really? How odd. I never had any problems. Built myth and ivtv all from source from latest releases, everything went smooth.
14:07 <Truin`> lsmod again - check to see if tuner and the others actually loaded this time?
14:07 <Truin`> THAT looks better.
14:11 <Truin`> again, a problem I didn't have. :) But, yeah, there's a fix.
14:12 <Sanguine> any thoughts on why modprobe ivtv doesnt load the tuner, but make reload from ivtv does?
14:13 <aceat64> it errors out to "Error Parsing: /usr/share/mythtv/themes/PurpleGalaxy/ui.xml at line: 601 column: 17; tag mistmatch; failed to get slector object"
14:14 <Truin`> aceat64: it works for me. One of my favs, actualy.
14:14 <Truin`> Damn, why is it that I didn't have ANY issues getting mythtv to work? Hehehe... lucky, I guess.
14:14 <Truin`> I like the Visor theme as well.
14:17 <billytwowilly> gant looks quite nice.
14:19 <billytwowilly> hehe, you bought a mythtv box for your birthday?
14:20 <billytwowilly> they are so expensive in canada though.
14:20 <billytwowilly> cheapest I've seen is 270 CAD.
14:21 <Sanguine> ick.. cant you find a US online store that will ship to canada or somethin?
14:21 <Truin`> lunch time. BBL.
14:21 <billytwowilly> that would suggest I had the money to spend on that right now though..
14:24 <Sanguine> anyone have any thoughts on why "modprobe ivtv" doesnt load the tuner stuff, but when i "make rebuild" fron the ivtv/driver directory it works fine?
14:25 <billytwowilly> that is highly strange.
14:35 <Sanguine> both the same size.. but that would make sense considering i built the module and put it there.
14:38 <thor_> you been building kernels ?
14:45 <Morph> hmm anyone noticed issues with MythDVD where it complains that there isnt a DVD player command configured..when there is?
14:47 <thor_> one to "Play DVD"
14:50 <Morph> im talking about the "Play DVD" one.
14:51 <thor_> from browser or tree ?
14:51 <thor_> or both ?
14:52 <aaearon> anyone have experience with shuttle minipcs and their tv out? does the tv out generally work?
14:52 <thor_> so there's a DVDPlayerCommand in your settings db for the right host ?
14:52 <thor_> and what's it say when you try to play?
14:53 <thor_> you get the dialog?
14:53 <Morph> yeah..the dialog says that there isnt one setup and a button saying that i'll go run the setup now.
14:58 <Morph> no no. its in there..but the sql result is an error.
15:06 <Morph> repair table settings fixed it..
15:08 <Morph> ah nice. that works.
15:28 <rOOfus> do you guys use small factor cases for your box?
15:28 <rOOfus> or just a regular tower?
15:31 <ceed> what to do?
15:34 <ceed> what bios settings are you referring to ?
15:39 <thor_> mdz, you know a quick and easy call (ioctl ?) to get a list of all block devices ?
15:41 <ceed> isn't that some kind of "common" error?
15:44 <mdz> thor_: what was that?
15:45 <mdz> thor_: a list of all block devices corresponding to a physical device which actually exists?
15:45 <mdz> but *all* block devices?
15:48 <rOOfus> and the PVR 350 or 250 is?
15:48 <rOOfus> why is the 401 so much cheaper?
15:49 <rOOfus> oh so if i am building a box with an athlon 900, i should get the pvr model?
15:52 <rOOfus> but what is different bout the 880?
15:53 <dmitry> alright, my tuner actually works!
15:57 <dmitry> question, after i've selected "video sources" (selected my cable provider), mythsetup goes to the menu, but i can't seem to select anything.. is something happening in the background?
15:57 <thor_> yeah, I'll just let the user tell me /dev/cdrom, /dev/dvd, etc. less "it just works", but also less "jesus christ, kde's automounter is battling with something really weird inside the mfd"
16:01 <dmitry> how long is it supposed to be?
16:06 <servo> is there a way to make mythtv look for the mysql.sock in /tmp/ instead of /var/run/mysql ?
16:16 <dmitry> it's still running!
16:17 <dmitry> how do i know that it didn't stall or something?
16:17 <thor_> still packets flowing ?
16:18 <dmitry> how can i tell?
16:18 <mdz> hmm? since when does setup dowload listings?
16:19 <dmitry> is it grabbing schedule, or just tv channel names?
16:20 <thor_> you on dialup ?
16:20 <dmitry> it was waiting for input.
16:21 <dja__> ack...my mythfilldatabase started erroring out yesterday...seems that "addDays(offset)" isn't...:-(...any ideas?
16:27 <rOOfus> is it better to use a card that does on board encodeing/decoding or just to get a real beefy proc?
16:29 <dmitry> r00fus: i went for b).
16:30 <dmitry> unless you can find an mpeg2-encoder card for under a 100 usd, makes sense to buy a faster proc.
16:31 <rOOfus> and then dont worry bout the proc?
16:39 <dmitry> ok, so after i run mythfilldatabase, the backend is allready to go?
16:39 <dmitry> ceed: have you looked at avermedia m179?
16:41 <dmitry> ceed: ahh. they are usually not that much cheaper than buying new, i found.
16:41 <dmitry> sometimes even pricier than new, which is just bizarre.
16:43 <dmitry> do any of you guys use debian packages provided?
16:51 <dja__> is anyone else running CVS as of Friday or newer?
16:53 <Morph> as of yesterday.
16:55 <ceed> when i see lots of green with some noise at the top, do i use the wrong bttv options?
16:59 <dmitry> what's the nice graphical tool for using mysql?
17:01 <dmitry> is there a trick to just allow everyone to login from any host?
17:09 <dmitry> ahh im a big fool. mysql is by default not listening on network interfaces.
17:11 <servo> how do I completly remove the mythconverg database?
17:34 <ceed> erm can timeshift actually work with sound when i need to pipe the audio from the wintv card's line out directly to the line in of my computer?
17:44 <thor_> PCM send ?
17:46 <servo> hmm it says "PCM Out Path & Mute"
17:47 <cbreen> anyone here use jvc_send.c to ir blast?
17:51 <thor_> so once you've figured it all out, you'll be sure to send in some better docs?
17:56 <ceed> 1. Hey my remote does not work?
17:56 <ceed> a working kernel module on my webpage. Replace the one included in your version with this one.
17:56 <ceed> Compressed or CD Rom versions will have to swap the loaded module after boot using an init script.
18:19 <SuperID> offtopic from mythtv - is anyone familiar with converting .nuv file to mpeg and burning them to DVD?
18:29 <servo> hey: after I fix a setting in ./setup do i need to run mythfilldatabase if I've run it before?
18:39 <Niqo> is the messages about clearing the database actually needed for setup, now that there is the option to delete cards in setup itself?
18:47 <rOOfus> are there any issues i need to be careful of when i am looking at mobos?
18:47 <skywarper> does anyone know if the hercules smart tv tv-card is supported by bttv?
18:49 <skywarper> is that becouse they can encode video on it's own?
18:57 <skywarper> not at all? not software encoding either?
18:58 <sfr> s/w encoding to mpeg4 or rtjpeg works, but i've never used it.
18:59 <skywarper> what's the diffrence btw pvr250 and pvr350 then?
19:02 <skywarper> can i use the remote under linux?
19:11 <Faed> how do you get mythtv to output to the tvout on your video card?
19:12 <dmitry> looks like the "no keyboard" problem is related to tvfrontend losing focus, but all the mailing list postings say it's happens when no window manager is running... but im running fvwm..
19:15 <skywarper> if i use a pvr250 which has a hardware encoder it should probably be able to run as a timeshifter on a mini-itx board to, right?
19:15 <rOOfus> sky: what do you want to know bout the sattelite cards?
19:17 <skywarper> Niqo: do you use the mpeg decoder on the mini-itx board?
19:17 <Niqo> howto aquire access to encrypted channels on satellite should not be discussed here!
19:18 <Niqo> skywarper: yes, works very well!
19:19 <skywarper> Niqo: you need some drivers to use it or is those things automagic?
19:21 <Niqo> who has access to the bots in here?
19:22 <Faed> Niqo -- how do I enable xinerama?
19:26 <ceed> humm how do i switch channels in mythtv ?
19:28 <skywarper> Niqo: how fast via c3 cpu do you think is needed if i want to be able to record and watch at the same time?
19:30 <ceed> 20.26 I can't change the channel when watching Live TV.
19:30 <ceed> Something's wrong with your program database. Did mythfilldatabase run with no major errors?
19:33 <thor_> hey, where's my "any" key ?
19:38 <dmitry> hmm general capture question... does /dev/video0 have to exist specifically?
19:38 <dmitry> or is /dev/video0 equivalent?
19:38 <dmitry> er /dev/video i meant.
19:38 <McQuaid> how do i cleanly shut it down?
19:39 <dmitry> i just tried to cat /dev/video > /tmp/cap.mpg and mplayer that, and i get garbage.
19:41 <McQuaid> when i check ps ax i see 10 intances of mythbackend running, how i kill them as a group?
19:46 <servo> For some reason when watching TV under root the picture quality is JUST fine, nice normal TV... But when watching TV under a normal user the picture quality gets messy; almost as if it's not running in ntsc; the picture is just horrible.
19:47 <thor_> you see the comment from mdz ?
19:47 <Niqo> mcquaid: the 'kill <lowest pid>' worked fine here(?).
19:48 <dmitry> servo: perhaps it has something to do with access to resources?
19:48 <rOOfus> does the pvr350 have audio out?
19:50 <dmitry> tvtime > * right now.
19:53 <dmitry> this mythtv business isn't going too well for me.
19:54 <dmitry> trying to use previous version of bttv..maybe the whole v4l2 business is the problem.
19:56 <dmitry> "Setup MyTV and learn more about tuners that you ever wanted to know"
19:59 <aceat64> what card do you have?
19:59 <aceat64> like a PVR-250?
20:10 <gerhard> does someone know if there is a new tv_grab_sn or is someone working on that?
20:20 <skywarper> does all the via mini-itx boards have hardware mpeg2 decoder?
20:20 <skywarper> or is it only the M-versions?
20:42 <Niqo> servo: if you make a recording; how does that play in mplayer?
20:43 <Niqo> ceed: what planet are you on?
20:44 <Niqo> ah, what happends when you change channels (or try to)?
20:47 <ceed> what is the column tvformat for in the channel table?
20:51 <ceed> judging by the sql queries - is that possible?
21:05 <Niqo> ceed: what version btw?
21:09 <Niqo> .14 || cvs?
21:12 <ceed> .13 i think?
21:13 <Niqo> i meant .13 || cvs, but would it be impossible for you to try cvs (it should be pretty stable, as it's close to .14 release)?
21:18 <Niqo> Chris: dunno if you are here, but thanks for catching that bit of the patch that was missing!
21:34 <Niqo> ceed: with cvs?
21:43 <Niqo> so the channel.sourceid match videosource.sourceid?
21:54 <McQuaid> one issue seems to be audio lag, and the other is, where's the actual guide listings?
22:00 <Niqo> yea, that mostly happends when the capture card (backend) don't give data to the frontend (mythtv)...can you reproduce?
22:06 <McQuaid> is there an option to have the preview window change as you go over other stations?
22:07 <Niqo> mcquaid: the mysql user details is in the 'mysql.txt' file, maybe your user has problems reading that?
22:12 <Niqo> pahli_bar: what? slow?
22:13 <pahli_bar> Niqo: hmm... 1-2 second channel change delay.
22:13 <pahli_bar> McQuaid: select channel in guide and exit menu.
22:15 <pahli_bar> Niqo: its about a 1-2 seconds (never timed it though).
22:16 <pahli_bar> Niqo: i always thought it was the ringbuffer being torn down and recreated.
22:17 <Niqo> but look at my ~500ms channel change without encryption though..
22:20 <pahli_bar> Niqo: though i would like to delve into the tv code more... someday.
22:24 <McQuaid> yes but is channel changing slow in other tv apps?
22:24 <pahli_bar> McQuaid: with bttv cards its almost instaneous with tvtime.
22:26 <McQuaid> result? do u mean it's always buffering?
22:28 <Niqo> phali: what's messy, the intermediate mode?
22:32 <Niqo> phali_bar: see what you mean...but kinda skeptic as to whether your hypothosis is correct..
22:36 <skywarper> hmm.. the mythtv make doesn't seem to find my qt-headers, any ideas?
22:38 <Niqo> pahli_bar: recreate ringbuffer: how long does that take (have you meassures with anything other than you wrist watch (which is removed for the moment))?
22:39 <McQuaid> hmm, i don't seem to have a man page for mythtv, where is a listing of the default keys?
22:39 <Niqo> phali_bar: running live tv - we are already in livetv, remember, all that needs to be done is figure out if the new channel is different from the prev.
22:41 <pahli_bar> anyone own a tivo/replaytv. how is the channel changing speed in them?
22:42 <aceat64> ok, can some point me to a help doc on how to setup a frontend only system?
22:43 <pahli_bar> aceat64: the same docs. except don't do the mythbackend specific stuff. remember to run setup though.
22:46 <pahli_bar> Niqo: option overload maybe.
22:49 <McQuaid> roughly how much time of live tv do u get per gig?
22:49 <pahli_bar> McQuaid: depends. bttv/pvr card?
22:51 <pahli_bar> McQuaid: with bttv its very dependent on the quality and resolution.
22:52 <McQuaid> i noticed alot of the default resolutions are 480x480, is that for svcd?
22:52 <Teflon-> wheee orkut is fun.
22:54 <Niqo> oh THAT STUFF?
22:54 <pahli_bar> its google associated right?
22:54 <Teflon-> yep.. the invite only thing.
22:55 <Niqo> Teflon: how is this mythtv related?
23:01 <McQuaid> about the preview window i was asking about in the guide. couldn't in actually use the live feed instead of the recording to avoid the 2 sec delay?
23:12 <aceat64> 'No XvMC found' what does this mean?
23:21 <pahli_bar> wrong place to catch on. print the manual. keep it by your side.
23:22 <pahli_bar> and there is #mythtv-users for such kind of questions.
23:23 <ChaosExiguum> pahli_bar, is that #mythtv-users documented anywhere?
23:34 <aceat64> oh, do I need to have a dir called /mnt/store that is connected to the /mnt/store on my master-backend in order to watch shows?
23:44 <aceat64> 2004-01-24 22:43:46 Opening OSS audio device '/dev/dsp'.
23:45 <Niqo> is there a slave at all?
23:46 <Niqo> so this frontend connect's to the backend and receives this message, yes?
23:47 <Niqo> what version of mythtv?
23:47 <Niqo> what display card?
23:49 <rOOfus> i read somewhere that knoppix myth install only works for intel based systems, is this true?
23:49 <McQuaid> ok my last question regarding the buffer, let's say i have 2 gigs free and leave it on the same channel while viewing, does it let it fill or purge the buffer when disc is getting close to full?
23:50 <aceat64> knoppix has myth on it?
23:50 <Niqo> is'nt athlon a intel based system?
23:51 <Niqo> <Niqo> is'nt athlon a intel based system?
23:52 <Niqo> what's different from pentium4 to athlon (when compiling)?
23:52 <pahli_bar> Niqo: pentium4 has sse2 (not in athlon).
23:53 <Niqo> phali_bar: is sse2 enabled in mythtv?
23:57 <rOOfus> is there a site that shows how to hook a myth box to the low speed data port on a dss receiver?
23:58 <pmowry> Not to start a flame war, but since I use RH9, should I try a completely new distro like gentoo, or move to fidora? I typically install from CVS most apps Iwant to play with.
23:59 <pahli_bar> aceat64: XvMC code is still a bit flaky.
