[mythtv-users] CentOS and 0.27-fixes (which really just means always-latest)

[Nick Campbell]

Ok, that is exactly what I have.  So its not a configuration of the HDHR,
that was done a long time ago and I have had a working Ubuntu setup..  My
issue I'm having is when I'm in mythfrontend, and I select "watchTV" it
loads like normal, but then it gives me a timeout error, it says something
like "its taking too long to get a lock" and I never get a display of any
channels.  Everything else seems to be working just fine.

The reason I was thinking it was a driver issue is only because in the
backend setup in ubuntu, when I select the HDHR, it sees the HDHR and gives
me a id#.0, .1, .2 tuner option.  In centos, it doesn't but I can manually
enter the IP address..  So that is why I thought it had something to do
with drivers.. But I don't know enough to really diag my problem.

So you have an HDHR Prime working without issue?  Is there anything
specific you remember when you setup the backend to get it working?
