Ok Myth TV front and back end are installed from Software Center. I'm
having trouble setting up the back end, recognizing tuner cards etc. Going
to the front end does no good because the back end doesn't even turn on. I
also have Mythbuntu Control Center, from Software Center, it opens and I
can flip through all the pages but I'm wondering if it is supposed to work
with Mythbuntu instead of Myth TV. Previously mentioned is all on a Ubuntu
12.04/64 bit OS I have Mythbuntu intalled on a partition extension of my
drive, I do a lot of restarting there because the screen goes blank or
because I can't do anything else and it seems like I'm only seeing front
end pages I don't see where to input tuner cards of which I have two, a
Hauppauge Win TV HVR 1250. and a Kworld Hybrid.
If it seem like I'm all over the map here its because I am, I've been
getting bits and pieces from here and there that I can't get to fit well
together. What I need is small steps through any system to a working HVR.
Thanks in advance for your patience and experience.
