running
mythtv-setup
, built from the same source tree, on a local desktop, i'm able to
connect to the server, and start the setup process.
my capture hardware is a
HDHomeRun US
that's attached to a dedicated, second ethernet card on the server.
on the server, cmd line tools find the device,
./hdhomerun_config discover
hdhomerun device 101110BA found at 10.10.10.1
and i can scan & detect all my known channels channels successfully
with,
./hdhomerun_config 101110BA scan /tuner0
at the MythTV Setup "2. Capture Cards" -> "Capture Card Setup" screen, I
select
Card Type: HDHomeRun DTV tuner box
The next field, shows only,
Available devices: Manually Enter IP Address
and *no other* options are available in the dropdown.
I've been told in #hdhomerun that there should be multiple options,
including "Device ID", or some such, as long as the device is properly
detected, and that there "must be" a networking problem.
If I, instead, just enter the device's IP address (10.10.10.1) in the
"IP Address:" field down the page a bit, and proceed to a channel scan,
I get NO channel locks, and no working channels are retrieved.
Is the lack of additional dropdowns an indication of a networking
problem? If so, where do I look for it, given that the cmd line
hdhomerun_config tests above are working?
any other possibilities here?
