[mythtv-users] 2 Backends, but only using one!

[John Kim]

I have one master backend and one slave backend, each with one tuner card
installed.

And if I look at the database, there are two capture cards listed, one for
each machine.

But from either frontend, it behaves as if there's only one backend(the
master one.)

The fix-conflict screen shows conflicts even if there's only two programs
set to record at once.  If I go to one computer and start watching live
TV, and try the same thing on the other, it says that the tuner card is
occupied.  If I change the recording profile on one computer, it changes
on the other as well.

It's also configured so that they each use their own HD for storage.  The
master has 160GB, which the slave has 70GB.  But even if I go to the
slave, if I go into delete recording screen, it shows that I have 160GB
free!

When I start mythfrontend -v on the slave, it says that it's connecting to
the backend on the master!  Where do I configure so that it connects to
the local backend?
