Comment:

 It has been locked because it was not a bug and got re-opened.  MythTV
 stores many settings pre-profile, and if you do not specify the name to
 use through the 'LocalHostName' parameter in mysql.txt, MythTV will
 default to using the name returned by `hostname`.  As you have configured
 MythTV to listen only on 127.0.0.1 on that profile (hostname), either
 through intent or lack of action, it will do as told.

 To resolve this, either go into `mythtv-setup` and tell MythTV to listen
 somewhere you can access from the network, or specify a profile to use in
 ~/.mythtv/mysql.txt with 'LocalHostName' such that the IP selection is
 unset, causing `mythfrontend` to default to listening on all available
 private network addresses.
