[mythtv-users] duplicating a mythtv system, sort of

[Jim Abernathy]

I have a mythbuntu 0.28 system backend at home that is working great.  I want to create a smaller one and put it in my RV for when I’m traveling.  Both will be completely for OTA tv recording.

How can I transfer recording between the 2 systems?  When I’m at home I could bring the RV system in an plug it into the same subnet as the home mythtv system.  I know how to move the files around between the systems, but what about the database that keeps the list of recordings?  I know that if I just copy the files, you don’t see them on the receiving system.

This is probably easier if I do all the recordings by doing a backup and restore of the database.  But what about just doing some of the recordings. I have a user job that can be used to send TV to NAS, but I think that is overkill.

Ideas?
