Folks,
I am looking into improving support for newer versions of MythTV in
libcmyth and in mvpmc itself. I have discovered that the mythtv
database interactions in mvpmc are versioned based on the mythtv
protocol version, which is a bit of a blunt instrument when deciding
which database schema to use. It would be better to base this on the
schema version, but I don't have historical data for all of the schema
versions going back in time (unless someone out there has that
information, in which case, by all means send it my way). What I do
have is the relevant schema characteristics that go with several
protocol versions (as reflected in code), and a way to determine the
current schema version and protocol version of a given MythTV
installation.
So, I am making a request of anyone currently using MythTV with mvpmc
(or thinking about using mvpmc with an existing MythTV installation)
to send me your Database Schema Version and Protocol version. From
that, I hope to be able to map the two together for the MythTV
versions that are currently in use in the community.
The procedure is as follows:
Log into your mythtv system, then:
To find the database schema version:
$ mysql -umythtv -pmythtv mythconverg
mysql> select * from settings where value = DBSchemaVer;
and capture the output. Then to get out of mysql:
mysql> quit;
To get the protocol version:
$ mythfrontend --version
and look for a line that looks like:
Network Protocol : 40
The number is the protocol version.
Please reply directly to me to avoid putting a bunch of data on the
lists. I will collate and summarize what I learn on the developer
list.
Thanks for your help on this!
Eric
