purchased a free to air satellite capture card model number TBS6902.
Installed it on the main machine and it broke all the Hauppauge drivers i.e.
the hvr 1250 and hvr 2250 only thing that worked was the hd homerun tuners.
I also tried to install the open source drivers for the TBS card but that
also failed.
Therefore I segregated the tuners (1) hd homerun and the TBS 6902 on a
slave machine and (1) hd home run with the Hauppauge hvr 1250 and 2250 on
the Master backend.
The front end on slave machine works fine no problems.
Here is what I have done on the slave installed Mythbuntu 14.04 along with
mythtv 27. I choose the Slave backend/Frontend option. Installed the closed
source TBS driver. Made the IP static for that machine and got rid of the
local or 127.xx address and inserted the Master backend address and slave
address. I then added the capture cards to the slave and added the video
sources on the Master backend. Then went back up stairs and scan the
channels on the slave machine and saw that the channels had been added to
the channel editor.
I thought I was on a roll, I restarted both Slave/Master but saw that the
front end on the Slave and Master machine skips over the new Slave channels
as if they do not exist. Also the Frontend on the Master Machine says the
new added slave tuners are unavailable (in yellow).
I tested the MySQL app in the Mythbuntu Control center for connectivity and
I get a green check mark. Therefore the Master can and does connect with the
Slave.
Mythtv provides me with no errors i.e cant connect etc.
Note I have not played with samba shares of NFS or storage groups not sure
if this is a problem. I was hopping to store content on local machines using
default.
I have read multiple wikkis and I have no clue what to do.
Thanks in advance love Mythtv even when it does not work as I am always
learning new stuff.
