I don't even pretend to be a database admin. I don't know how to get the MacPorts-built Myth programs to address a different socket. What is the attraction to your existing DB installation? Why not backup from it and restore to MariaDB? If you want to look into it further, I believe all db access in...

I'm referring to the pre-built versions in Sourceforge packaged inside the MythBackend-0.28-intel-10.9-v0.28-52-ge6a60f7.dmg and MythFrontend-0.28-intel-10.9-v0.28-52-ge6a60f7.dmg disk images. These don't seem come with an installer that will place files in various locations. Instead, they appear t...

I haven't done it myself, but give warpme's workaround a try:

A MacPorts dev is working on a method of installing such framworks (Quicktime in this case). When he gets it implemented, I'll update mythtv-core.28 to use it.

Please attach the full main.log -- compress if necessary.

An update...but not good news. For the last 4-5 weeks, I've been back to plugging away at MythTV 29.x on macOS. Starting with MoisiePants pull request, I got the code to build successfully. So I resurrected my Parallels VM's for testing. Unfortunately, mythfrontend would crash hard at launch each an...

Looking more at this... When I build a recent pull of fixes-29.1 with XCode 9, the following is reported: ld: warning: ignoring file /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.13.sdk/System/Library/Frameworks//QuickTime.framework/QuickTime.tbd, missi...

The Quicktime issue only happens when building with XCode 10.1, right? And therefore only on macOS 10.13.x and 10.14.x.

The wiki history can show you all previous versions. I think you want:

I don't know the standards used for television in your country. However, Silicondust makes a number of models that support DVB if that helps. I believe their website automatically tailors their suggestions based on your country of origin. Worth a look. Perhaps you can sell your Hauppauge device and ...

https://www.mythtv.org/wiki/MacPorts#Capture_Cards_and_Video_Sources - Pretty much the only Capture Cards that are supported on OS X are the HDHomerun tuners from Silicondust...although some IPTV or HTTP Live Streaming services may also work. https://www.mythtv.org/wiki/MythTV_on_Mac_OS_X#Limited_Tu...

So, mythutil is the third last entry. Regardless, by the dates, I can see that you have 0.28. I can't explain why the MythWeb stuff doesn't appear to be in the only location where the installer can put it.

Stop the backend, run the installer again and then try to continue with setup.

And if you do 'ls -l myth*'?

In Terminal...

I think you've installed Myth _0.27_ not 0.28. You can confirm by running 'mythutil --version'. A key change between the two versions was that the MacPorts layout for Apache2 changed. If you want to continue with 0.27, you can follow an old version of the MythWeb install instructions: https://www.my...
