Okay, a big thank you to user superm1 in the Ubuntu forums the way to

fix this part is to enter the following:



$ sudo su

# apt-get update

# apt-get upgrade

# apt-get remove unity-greeter

# apt-get install lightdm

# cd /etc/lightdm/

# mv lightdm.conf lightdm.conf.old

# pico lightdm.conf



In the lightdm.conf file put the following:



[SeatDefaults]

autologin-guest=false

autologin-user=<<your MythTV user ID, ie: superm1 or whatever>>

autologin-user-timeout=0

autologin-session=lightdm-autologin

user-session=mythbuntu

allow-guest=false

> On the frontend only box, there are audio issues (read, no audio) and image quality problems with HD recordings.



There are still audio issues on the frontend box...
