I have setup mythstreamtv and mythweb (.20) on my FC5 backend.<br>
The problem I have is very similar to the one discussed in this post :-
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/220024?search_string=mythstreamtv;#220024">http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/220024?search_string=mythstreamtv;#220024</a><br>
ie: (When I access mythstreamtv and select a show, the file name handed
to VLC is a "myth://" protocol URL, not a local file. VLC, then,
complains that it doesn't know how to handle the myth:// protocol.)<br>
As Albernat discovered the answer is to ensure <font color="black"

face="Verdana,Arial,Helvetica" size="2">that the requesting hostname
and local hostname are the same.<br>
However when I changed the hostname in mysql.txt file in the backend to
be identical to the machine hostname it does not cure the problem.<br>
Only by changing the machine hostname back to localhost.localdomain
can I get mythweb to pass the local file name to mythstreamtv.<br>
My backend was originally set up with the hostname
localhost.localdomain however I had to change it (to mythbox) due to
problems with samba sharing to windows machines.<br>
Is there something I am missing here.<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
