[mythtv-users] [SOLVED] LiveTV problems after 0.22 upgrade

[Per Öberg]

Hi all

Just dropping a note that i solved it. I found a misconfiguration in one 
of the slave backends (both slaves presented themselves with the same 
hostname). Don't know how it got there and it was working before the 
upgrade.

Anyhow, everything is working great for now.
