[mythtv-users] Hello, and a question about PHP version

[Dave Howorth]

Hello,

I just signed up, because I recently bought a TBS6205 card and am
trying to set up mythtv to use it. I use openSUSE, currently Leap 15.0,
which has been a bit of a struggle first to get the card working (I was
on Leap 42.3, which won't compile v4l) and now to get mythtv working, so
I'm hoping I may find some more knowledgeable people here. Oh, I'm in
the UK.

I'm in the middle of trying to use mthtv-setup to get my backend going
(I plan to use Kodi on a Fire TV as the frontend eventually) and am
currently stuck with error messages about the tuners being programmed
to start on channel 3 which does not exist. I don't understand what
that means really, nor how to fix it. Oh, and is there any way to run
mthtv-setup in a window instead of fullscreen? It's very annoying to
have to exit from it every time I want to look something up on the web
or inspect my filesystem or whatever.

But my reason for posting at this time is actually to do with mythweb.
I tried to install v0.28 from packman, but when I do I see a dependency
error saying that nothing provides apache2-mod_php5. Now I see that
currently installed on my system is apache2-mod_php7 and I also see at
https://code.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/12588 that the problem was
encountered three years ago and was fixed in mythweb two years ago
apparently in v0.27. So 0.28 should be OK.

So I'm trying to understand what has happened and if there's any way to
get mythweb to work.

TIA, Dave
