[mythtv-users] MythTV Raspberry Pi 2+ MythFrontend Setup Tutorial Updated

[Curtis Gedak]

Thanks to the work of Peter Bennett and Lawrence Rust I have been able
to combine their work to create a new build of MythTV for the Raspberry
Pi 2 or better.

The build is available at:

mythtv-v0.27.6-69-g41a2a8d-RPI2-jessie.tar.bz2

The key differences from Peter's excellent debian packages are:

  -  Includes MythTV suite of plugins
  -  Enables EGLFS mode for rock-steady OSD with custom video
     playback profile

The key difference from Lawrence's pioneering tarballs are:

  -  Includes Peter's RPi fixes and enhancements
  -  Built upon MythTV 0.27.6 instead of 0.27.5


Installation of the new tarball is described in the updated MythFrontend
Setup Tutorial.  See:
