I do not use the mythbuntu packages, and this is what I have in my
mythtv-backend.service. I have never had a problem with it.


    # /etc/systemd/system/mythtv-backend.service
    [Unit]
    Description=MythTV Backend
    Wants=mysql.service network-online.target
    After=mysql.service network-online.target

    [Service]
    Type=simple
    User=mythtv
    UMask=0002
    ExecStart=/usr/bin/mythbackend --syslog local7
    Restart=on-failure
    StartLimitInterval=10min
    StartLimitBurst=5
    StandardOutput=null

    [Install]
    WantedBy=multi-user.target
