[mythtv-users] Upgrade path to Ubuntu 16.04

No, both talk to the same database. 
I’ve done a delete all tuners on both systems (which I should not do on an upgrade). Now trying to set up again. DVB-S with Diseqc setup is now a disaster. Used to be so easy, the way its done now is counterintuitive and when assigning inputs I can’t see which LNB is connected, since they’re all called DVBInput and the card name is the same. And I have 4 switches on 4 tuners, each connecting to three LNB’s.
One card-one switch-one LNB is working now again. Seems best way is to create the new card with switch and LNB, then assign the input and go back to do it again. Otherwise I totally loose track (cards are named the same, even if the selected switch channel is different). 
Maybe a few more and I’ll get used to it.
