[mythtv-users] recording on non master backend

2005-03-10 Thread Peter van Rensburg
Hi,

I have the following simple setup:

living room:

hometheater system 
comcast 6412 stb
epia with nfs root fs, running frontend and non master
backend

office:

server running master backend

With the EPIA connected to the cable receiver via
firewire, I want it to change the channel and record
via firewire, storing the data on it's root fs (which
is actually nfs mounted on master backend server). 
So the master backend runs the mysql db and does the
xml processing etc. I quickly setup myth everywhere
but it seems that the frontend always connects to the
master backend when trying to watch tv, as apposed to
the non master (local) backend. How can I change this?
Is it possible to do what I want to do? 

Thanks
Peter

2005-03-10 Thread Peter van Rensburg
Hi

Does anyone know if there's any test programs that
uses the new firewire capturing functionality ? 

I'd just like to try and capture something to verify
that it works, changing the channel is working now. 

Thanks!

Re: [mythtv-users] (resend again) 6200ch and Motorola 6412

2005-03-10 Thread Peter van Rensburg
Thanks much Ian. This morning my vendor ID looked
different, I made the relevant changes:

#define DCT6412_VENDOR_ID1 0x0f9f
#define DCT6412_VENDOR_ID2 0x12c9
#define DCT6412_MODEL_ID1  0x64ca


Same model ID as you had there. Works like a charm!

[mythtv-users] 6200ch and Motorola 6412

2005-03-09 Thread Peter van Rensburg
Hi

Has anyone had any luck changing channels on the
Motorola 6412? Mine (Comcast SF bay area) returns
completely different vendor ID (0x4063) and
strange model ID (0x)

Nothing happened sending the command :( 

Any ideas?
Peter
