[mythtv-users] Lose TV tuners after PC reboot

Hi Justin,

I believe that Stephen's suggestion is correct.  That is that the MythTV
backend is starting up before either the TCP/IP network or the network
tuner (HDHomeRun) is up and running.

I encountered this issue on a PVR I build for a family member.  While I
was unable to get a 100% reliable solution I did find that delaying the
startup of the MythTV backend improved the situation immensely.

If you are curious about the things I tried, I wrote an article on it.
Please note that the article was on Mythbuntu 14.04 with MythTV 0.27, so
the exact steps would not apply for your Mythbuntu 16.04 installation.
