Actually, capturecard does have a hostname column (cardinput doesn't,
but isn't used in current releases.)

Run setup again, or if you have recent logs, then look for these 2 lines:

2018-05-19 09:39:30.153677 N  Empty LocalHostName.
2018-05-19 09:39:30.153683 I  Using localhost value of <your value here>

The 1st line tells you if <LocalHostName> was set and the 2nd
tells you which hostname will be used by MythTV as a profile
name (hostname), e.g. in settings, storagegroups and capturecard.

Tables channel and videosource don't have a hostname column.

If <LocalHostName> is empty or contains: "my-unique-identifier-goes-here",
then the LocalHostName is considered to be empty.

See if the hostname contains the same value in the container and
its host. Look in old backend logs if they're still available.
