have to install anything, just select them from the menu. The only issue I
has was the IP address dropping and switching to static IP solved that.
The IP thing happened about every 6 weeks so doubt that is your problem but
I would recommend static IP with Mythbuntu 16.04 as there is a bug
somewhere and it drops the connection to the HDHR after some time.
