What do I have to do to get mythbackend to be able to run out of the init
script? If I run mythtv (by itsefl or from mythfrontend) it crashes
mythbackend unless it was started as root. I have added mythtv to the
audio and video groups and chmoded 666 /dev/(audio|video|dsp|mixer)
I am also getting no sound. I am using alsa. I have tested audio output while
recording via sound-recorder sucesfully.
I am running Debian unstable and using the
deb http://dijkstra.csh.rit.edu/~mdz/debian unstable mythtv
mythtv packages.
Any Ideas? Any?
