[mythtv-users] upgrading from mythbuntu 14.04/0.27 to 0.28 vs. mythbuntu 16.04 install

[David Williams]

I am appreciative and in awe of the knowledge presented in this thread. I've been trying off and on for several weeks to do a fresh install of 0.28 on Ubuntu 16.04 with a combined fe/be system. I'm using networked tuners, HD Homerun and HD Prime, and I've noticed on both the cable and OTA side that when the system attempts to access a tuner the green light comes on momentarily then goes off. Is the likely culprit the "NetworkManager-wait-online. service" and if so would someone be so kind and to point me in the right direction to solve the problem. Thanks,
Dave

 I have about 500GB of recorded TV on my mythbuntu 14.04 backend on version 0.27 of mythtv. I’m ready to upgrade to 0.28.

I’m trying to pick the best way.

I know I can use MCC and change the repository from 0.27 to 0.28 and do an upgrade in place (making sure I have a current backup of the database).  I could then do a "do release upgrade" and bring the OS to 16.04.

Is that better than doing a fresh install of mythbuntu 16.04.1??  I’m worrying about restoring the 0.27 database backup to 0.28 after I install 16.04 from scratch?  I have my recording on 2 separate disk that will not be erased by a fresh install.

Thoughts on how to do this right?
