<div class="">Well, this test of mythtv-backend on an RP3
B+ is probably over. I setup the RP3 with Raspbian LIte
Stretch 9 and boot from USB External Hard Drive. Using
the Build from Source Wiki I got mythtv built without
errors but I could not do the Ansible dependence stuff.
Had to do that the old fashion way.<br class="">

<div class="">I could get the backend setup for HDHR
internal method, and set no grabber of EPG. So when
Kodi on another system connected it could see the
channels, but I could not play one. I’m not sure way?
Usually if the mysql permissions aren’t right you can’t
even get that far. I got no errors in any logs I could
find.<br class="">

<div>You need to visit the raspberry pi page on <a
href="http://mythtv.org" class="" moz-do-not-send="true">mythtv.org</a>.
In it there is a mythtv-lite package that you want to
install on raspbian stretch available from raspberry <a
href="http://pi.org" class="" moz-do-not-send="true">pi.org</a>.
No need to compile yourself.</div>
<div><br class="">
</div>
<div>Just follow the instructions on the referenced page from
<a href="http://mythtv.org" class="" moz-do-not-send="true">mythtv.org</a>.</div>
<div><br class="">
</div>
<div>Incidentally using the package referenced above for v29,
I am able to record from 2 tuners, as well as watch from a
2nd raspberry pi running mythtv-light set up as a frontend
machine. I also have the mp2 license installed, and it works
well when following the instructions outlined on the <a
href="http://mythtv.org" class="" moz-do-not-send="true">mythtv.org</a> raspberry
pi page.</div>
<div><br class="">
</div>
<div>Again, make certain to follow the instructions if you are
interested in raspbian stretch and mythtv-lite method. </div>
<div><br class="">

<div>Regards,</div>

<p>This was a real pain but I got it working. As we all know with
mythtv there are 99 things that have to be perfect for it to
work and I forgot an important one. On the backend the IP in
General was still localhost. I changed that to it's real IP of
192.168.0.30 and everything worked. I usually forget the
Security PIN of 0000. <br>
</p>
<p>So we know it works on the RP3 using Mythtv-Light and adding
the database. still need to get mythweb working. I must have
missed a step there.</p>

<p>Okay, my initial test worked. I setup to record 2 HDTV programs
at the same time from a HDHR Duo. Then once the recordings
started I could use mythfrontend to view either recording while
both programs were still recording. With a Duo that's as much as
you could do. I ran this test at a time when no other system
wanted to use the HDHR since I was using the standard HDHR setup
and not mythhdhrrecorder external recorder that does share.<br>
</p>
<p>I have some major concerns about using this on a home network
though. To share the HDHRs I would have to use mythhdhrrecorder
and that sort of forces me to tv_grab_zz_sdjson_sqlite which is
supposed to be a huge memory hog. The RP3 only has 1GB for
everything. For my test described above I use an external xml file
to fill the EPG so memory wasn't an issue.</p>
