MythTV Official Community Forum

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...
or from anywhere

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...

So, you got the installer from: https://sourceforge.net/projects/macportsmythtvinstaller/files/ If you have the backend running, then hundreds of MB of stuff had to be installed onto your machine. There are no options--it always goes to the same locations. I can't explain how the MythWeb bits might ...

You are following these instructions, right?

Please copy/paste the transcript from the Terminal session where you attempt to follow the steps.

Remember: "Any errors will report a message; successful completion just returns the command prompt."

I also have tried to get mythhdhrrecorder working, and failed. In the GitHub docs at: https://github.com/garybuhrmaster/mythhdhrrecorder I do not understand how to go about the directive to "Fetch Channels" under "Setup in MythTV." Whatever I am doing now always gives no channels. Silicon Dust has ...
