the HOWTO is good, but you can avoid a LOT of work using the binary
releases.  all you have to do then are steps 5 thru 5.4.

my log says that too, yet it can play recordings.  what version
version of mvpmc are you using?  i had similar problems using some of
the older binary releases.  make sure your using the latest 2005
release.

if you think your dongle.bin.mvpmc file is bad, i have a known working
one on my ftp site you can try to rule that out.  i'll send the link
off list.

also, check your /tftpboot/dongle.bin.mvpmc.config.  it should look
something like the following if playing back vi nfs, assuming you
store recording in /myth/tv on your backend:

mkdir /myth/tv
/etc/nfsmount.sh 192.168.0.2:/myth/tv /myth/tv
/bin/mvpmc -M -f /etc/helvR10.fnt -s 192.168.0.2 -o svideo -a 4:3 -m
ntsc -r /myth/tv &

my /etc/exports looks like this:
/myth/tv                 192.168.0.10(ro)

if playing back via the mythtv protocol:
rdate -s 192.168.0.2
/bin/mvpmc -M -f /etc/helvR10.fnt -s 192.168.0.2 -o svideo -a 4:3 -m ntsc &
