Re: [mythtv-users] off topic question/request for help on a mediamvp
I am using FC2 and myth .16 . I still never got it working, so I will be trying again this weekend probably. Thanks for the heads up.

Re: [mythtv-users] off topic question/request for help on a mediamvp
I am pulling out my hair trying to figure this out, and the wife isn't very happy that something I promised her would be working a month ago still just boots up and says "contacting Mediamvp booterver". I've updated the mvpmc HOWTO in the last few days. See if the new version helps. As far as the location of the files, every distribution seems to do it differently. As is stated in the HOWTO, I wrote it on a Debian machine, but in the meantime someone sent me updated path information for Mandriva, so that's now included. You don't state which distribution you're using. ___ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users

I'm all the way there, except each time I go to view recordings, the MVP says it's lost it's connection to MythTV. I've had to go the NFS route too, since it seems there's a protocol mis-match on the MVPMC and my backend (0.18.1). Anyway, I'd be happy to compare notes. gs ___ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users

I've been able to get dchcp working, but my issues seem to be with the tftp server. At any rate, you just need to create the dhcpd.conf file. I used the sample file that was provided in the howto for the mvpmc. I edited it to suit my needs, and dhcpd works fine for me. I did nothing with the sample file in /etc/log.d/conf/services/. I'm stuck at the "downloading software" part, so if you have any suggestions if you get that part worked out, I'd sure appreciate it. I'm using FC3, MythTV 0.18.1. gs ___ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
