I had this problem. I use a wireless router as my dhcp server, which does not specify hostname. So, FC4 defaulted to "localhost.localdomain". This is the key used to find the setup in the database. My problem was my backend and frontend used the same fake hostname, thus the same setup. If you hardcode your hostname (I think it's in /etc/sysconfig/network), this might help the problem. It worked for me :)

Hello

I have a new myth system setup and running. Both systems in question are installed on FC4 via atrpms following Jareds guide for the FE/BE system. I have a FE/BE combo maching currently with 1 avermedia M179 card that seems to work fine. I installed the mythfrontend on my main desktop to test with before I try to put together a dedicated frontend for a tv in the family room. I can not play recorded shows from the second frontend. I can view live tv without any problems though. When I try to play a recorded show, the frontend just does not do anything. After I exit out of the frontend I see an error messages which is attached to this message. The big problem is that it gives me an file not found error with a strange path on it. If you notice the path on the playbox error it has 2 // after the /video/store, which is the path on the backend to the video storage.

These same recordings play fine on the combined FE/BE machine.
Any suggestions.

The other problem I am having is very strange. When I try to rip a DVD on the FE/BE machine, I can configure it to do what I want choose which sections to rip, even preview, but when I press 0 to start ripping, it brings up a screen that says nothing to do, press 0 to rip dvd. If I press 0 again, it takes me to the first menu to choose what I want to rip.

Any suggestions on this?

Thanks in advance
