It appears you have 3 sources . One is correct, unless all 3 are different.
And that would be odd (impossible) for an HDHR.

If they're all on the same antenna/cable card only 1 is required. Make sure
all 3 inputs are connected to the source.

The v30 release notes have a link to: https://github.com/MythTV/mythtv/commit/57a0ad8
which may help.

The "Error 8: The bound address is already in use" lines above mean that
this there is another instance of the backend running.

If you run systemd, then systemctl status mythtv-backend will show if
the backend is running.
