<pre wrap="">Very probably your network is not jet fully on when MythTV starts.
There are many recent items on this subject in this list and I believe
there is also something in the WIKI. In essence you have to make
MythTV wait on the network.

Thanks for that Hika!<br>
<br>
For me on Mythbuntu 16.04 it looks like the network is slow to
start because the network interface details are not set by the
NetworkManager software until the user-login is complete.<br>
<br>
So to fix this, I:<br>
<br>
Disabled the NetworkManager ~<br>

<code><font size="3">Actually I spoke too soon.<br>

Myth-backend is taking a while to start, but it's nothing to do
with the network interface.<br>
This is quite a speedy box too, maybe I need to add a delay
before the front-end GUI launches.<br>
<br>
