15:13 Artox and the thing should be back up soon after
15:13 jmontleon no worries. is it accessible by ip address until then, or has something worse happened than just a dns resolution issue?

21:28 nexace hello
21:29 nexace i have recently purchase a Cubox-i4Pro, and was wondering if it is possible to connect an external TV antennae to my Cubox and watch live local TV in that manner?
21:36 Devrr nexace, no that is not possible. There isn't anywhere you can connect the antenna to. An antenna would attach to a TV tuner
21:37 Devrr There may be TV tuners that you could attach to the cubox-i via USB. But I have no knowledge or experience with that.
21:39 nexace well there are coax to usb converters
21:39 nexace but the Cubox doesnt have a native "tv tuner"?
21:42 Devrr I do not see one specified on the specs page: http://www.solid-run.com/products/cubox-i-mini-computer/cubox-i-specifications/
21:44 forest nexace, there is no TV tuner in the CuBox-i. You might consider using an external tuner like a SiliconDust HDHomeRun, and accessing it through a media center like Kodi. http://kodi.wiki/view/HDHomeRun
21:45 nexace thank you both
21:45 nexace ill research the HDHomeRun
21:46 Meech Hey everyone, I am looking at drawing openGL directly into framebuffer without Xorg, has anyone had any expereince doing this?
21:51 nexace forest, can you describe how the HDHomeRun would be interfaced through Kodi? how would the user experience the channels provided by the HDHomeRun?
22:33 forest nexace, I've not done it myself, and it's a bit off-topic here, but it seems to be a pretty popular approach to live tv among kodi/xbmc users. I suggest you do some searches for xbmc (or kodi) and hdhomerun. Here's one of the hits I got: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KlDu5YIPBWc
