Hi,
I have just installed a second Hauppauge PVR-250 on my network. I now
have:
1. A master backend which runs mythbackend (not connected to any TV).
2. A frontend which is connected to a TV.
3. A slave backend (based on the new tuner card) which is the same
machine as 2.
Everything configured and setup without incident. However, I am now
trying to confirm that it is working. While the master backend was
recording a scheduled program, I tried to play "live-tv" on the frontend
machine. But it still display the error message:
"Mythtv is already using all available inputs for recording"
Am I incorrect in assuming that the system should play live-tv on the
new tuner (slave backend) even though the backend is recording?
What would be a good way to test that MythTV is using both tuners
properly?
Thanks,
Dick
