Hi- I've had my Mythtv box working fine for months. Yesterday I started installation of new hardware (pvr-500) and now for some reason my database is acting up. I'm having a tough time understanding this one. Maybe if I knew a little better how the program accesses the db, I could figure it

Re: [mythtv-users] Avoid Suse for mythtv (database issues)
