[mythtv-users] Mythtv-setup cant change Master Backend Name

[John]

Setting up a raspberry pi backend and I want to move all existing 
recordings from an old machine.

The channels and sources are showing in setup but no storage groups

The new machines host name is pitv the old machine was tv.

I have imported a backup of the old database to the new machine.

Used this to convert the hostname in the database

mythconverg_restore.pl --change_hostname --old_hostname="XXXX" 
--new_hostname="YYYY"

The conversion has worked looking in the settings table.

When I run mythtv-setup>general>Host Address Backend Setup

I can set the Primary IP Address

But as soon as I tick "This Server is the Master Backend"

It fills in the Master Backend Name and wont let me edit it.

The name picked was a previous name of this card, I have checked

|/etc/hosts,|
||/etc/hostname and Raspberry Pi Configuration Its getting the old name 
from somewhere though Do I have to use a previously unused IP address 
for the card ||
