I've got a PVR 350 with the remote that came with it which has been

I have been raving about MythTV to a friend of mine who finally

There's a folder in the root of your home called .mythtv which you
may want to delete and let it recreate. Perhaps the version formats
are different? I found when I changed the IP of my backend, I had to
delete that directory.
