I can connect to mysql from the command line. I do not have any secondary backends, only a single frontend backend system.
The front end can play recorded shows, but can't do live TV.
Mythweb reports: Error Unable to connect to the master backend at 192.168.63.3:6543.Is it running? This is the correct IP address.
