However, upon restarting the backend, my HDHomeRun tuners were all shown as
in error.  I have an HDHomerun Prime and an HDHomerun Dual that I have been
using for years.

To troubleshoot, I removed the tuners in mythtv-setup under Capture Cards.
However, now when attempting to add them back, I don't even get an option
for HDHomeRun device in the list of available tuner types.  Quickly looking
over the mythtv-setup log, I don't see any obvious errors.

Can anyone provide guidance on why I am observing this?  I saw the
reference to "issues" with HDHomeRun tuners but I have not caught any of
the discussion on what the issues actually are.  I also hoped I was safe
having grabbed the build that occurred yesterday.

Thanks!

Tim
