And what I think is a database corruption issue.</div><div><br></div><div>I have had a perfect working system for nearly 3 years, so as you can imagine I am very nervous about database issues. But must admit that I think mine was corrupted on a power cut. However, the entire system has been fine apart from I noticing that my tuners incremented up with each configuration change.</div><div><br></div><div>I decided to bite the bullet and upgrade to 10.4 Mythbuntu. Upgrade went well, and my tuners, allowed me to scan for channels, but would not allow live tv or recordings, and said tuner unavailable. With that I gave up and restored my config back to the old version on 8.4.</div><div><br></div><div>Assuming that perhaps something was wrong with my db, I decided to reconfigure the cards in the working version, and sort out the tuner numbering :-</div><div><br></div><div><pre class="bbcode_code" style="height: 84px;">$ mysql mythconverg -u mythtv -p
(Enter password for mythtv mysql user)
mysql> truncate table capturecard;
mysql> truncate table cardinput;
mysql> quit
</pre><div>That solved the tuner numbering, and I went on to scan channels on my tuners cards, which worked well. Same issue on frontends, tuners unavailable! No live tv or recordings?</div></div><div>Mythbackend log says very little, and not so much as one error, but I have not adjusted the logging level yet. With this all in mind, I thought this was a db error, so checked and optimized it, still no joy.</div><div><br></div><div>I am at a total loss now, wished there was a way to do a clean install, but am concerned that a restore of the DB would just bring the problem back?</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>8.4 running 0.21.0+fixes21768-0ubuntu0+mythbuntu1<br>
