A few thoughts assuming the script you used is the one I wrote at 
https://forum.mythtv.org/viewtopic.php?f=46&t=3232#p15773

1. mythbackend must be there (script aborts if not found), but will only 
run after it has been configured using mythtv-setup following a reboot 
after the script finishes.

2. For network tuners the Raspberry Pi 4 (or Pi3) needs to be configured 
to "Wait for network" at boot time using Raspberry PI Configuration 
System tab (main menu Preferences).

3. Can you get into mythtv-setup ?
