Not in frontend. Stop the backend. Run mythtv-setup. Select 1) General. Set the IP addresses on the first page.<div><br>

Make sure that your hostname is set in /etc/hosts. If using<br>

Since you have no other hosts listed, then you MUST use 127.0.0.1 in mythtv-setup.<br>
In frontend Setup General you MUST identify the computer by 'localhost' ir use 127.0.0.1<div><br>

<br></div>
Someone typing in the wrong IP address or not entering the hostname identifier (which is in frontend Setup General page 2) into hosts. Myth expects the computer to properly resolve the IP, if it uses a name. A bad network setup means that myth cannot do that...and generally then has a problem finding the backend.<div>

<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
Then try mythtv-setup again. Note that the backend should NOT be<br>
running while doing setup, so this may not be an actual error unless<br>
you got it while trying to start the frontend.<br>
meaning?<br>
</blockquote>
<br></div>
Just what I said. You should not get it from mythtv-setup, but only from frontend, when it cannot find the backend. See above.<br>
<br>
Note that a fix to the analog scan problem has just been put into trunk 23657. However using it requires that you download and compile the code. Since you only have one channel, it will not do you much good so you should stay with what you have.<br>
