Today I finally took the plunge to upgrade my FC4 (!) based mythtv 0.20
system to 0.21. This time I chose to give Mythdora 5 a try instead of
doing all it myself. Installation itself was a breeze and after
overcoming the manual channel setup and filling the guide for the first
time I am now stuck at configuring the recording profiles.

I have a total of 3 hardware encoders (1x PVR-250 and 1xPVR-500) but I
cannot seem to get them to record anything. I tried with mplayer, all
tuners still work but somehow a can't mythtv so use them. When I try to
configure them in Recording Profiles it show RTjpeg and MPEG4 options
instead of MPEG2. What am I doing wrong here?

Could it be something with backend/frontend mix up? This is a combined
backend/frontend setup to except multiple frontends.

I am so close but no sigar...

BTW I'm impressed with the changes between 0.20 and 0.21. A lot of work
has been done, nice job!
