Problem with backend/frontend on same machine
|
|
After working on a new build for myth, I finalkly have something
that I can use to watch videos, listen to music, and view pictures.
Now I just need to get my livetv and recording working.
Using FC2, ATrpms, Jarod's guide, lirc, plus a bunch of other stuff
(most notably a pvr-250 and 440mx), I can't seem to get live tv to work.
When I tried the capture video from the command prompt, I get some
serious
horizontal alignment (like the h-hold is way over to one side) so all I
see is
what looks like a really twisted picture in mplayer. If I switch to
another -p
setting, I get a blank, totally black signal. Since Jarod mentioned
this could be
controlled in .16 (what I'm using), I wasn't too worried about it. I
don't see any
way to change that setting. I have the input pointing to tuner 0, and
when I
select Watch TV, I get a blank screen and no sound, and after 5 seconds
or so,
I get popped back to the main screen. Back on the command line for the
session that
called mythfrontend, I get this:
2004-10-27 21:00:54 Connecting to backend server: 192.168.50.60:6543
(try 1 of 5)
2004-10-27 21:01:02 ReadStringList timeout (quick).
2004-10-27 21:01:02 Unexpected response to MYTH_PROTO_VERSION:
2004-10-27 21:01:02 Changing from None to None
I looked in the archives and only found two references to
myht_proto_version,
neither of which described the problem I'm having. Where should I look?
On my previous install (back on .14, built from scratch), I didn't have
this
problem. Then again, I had a whole lot more time to fiddle with
tweaking the
setup.
Thanks, and awesome project. Isaac and the rest of the crew are to be
applauded.
