The patch has been sitting in master since 20th June and no one reported any problems so I just cherry picked it into 29.0-fixes assuming it should work OK there to since I've no way to easily test fixes. There must be some differences between the two that I am not aware of. I've never used the Ubun...

I'm just trying to get the 4 hour version to work right. Any idea what the log post above means? the latest version can be found here for anyone interested. https://forum.mythtv.org/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=252#p6403 The problem with having more than 3 hours shown in the guide grid should now be fixed i...

The easiest way is probably to get a copy of the packaging repo and use the instructions in the deb directory to create your own packages. That is the same method the official packages use. You can easily add your own patches to the build process just place your patches in the patches directory and ...

OK thanks for letting us know we're looking into it.

This means the version of MythWeb is a lot older than the version of MythTV you are using so you need to make sure both are the same version.

I've got a feeling of déjà vu :roll: https://forum.mythtv.org/viewtopic.php?t=1358&p=6554 I know Thomas got some stick when he made changes to the Mythbuntu theme last time so he may be reluctant to make such a drastic change. You can't assume what you want is what every user wants. He did make a cl...

It's true we don't support the old JSON grabber that I believe inserts data directly into the database but there are now 2 xmltv grabbers that will just work like any other xmltv complaint grabber.

Gary is to modest to say but one of the grabbers is his and is the one all the developers use

Th IPTV recorder is a little picky about the format of the m3u file, it was initially created for use from a single FREEBOX source but has been enhanced to make it work with other sources but still needs work to make it work properly with some sources. You might have to create your own .m3u file and...

Don't know if this info is still correct (last updated in 2016?) but it says the remote is not implemented so you might be out of luck. https://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Hauppauge_WinTV-quadHD_(ATSC_ClearQAM) I would look at the output from dmesg to see if there is anything in there to suggest ...

I don't know the legal details but the project has never produced binaries to protect the developers from being sued for copyright or patent infringements and having to get licences for the use of the MPEG stuff amoung other things. So we only make it available through source code and it's up to it'...

The format of the recordings is the same it's just the file extension that changed to be .ts since in they are transport streams not mpeg files as such so as Mike suggests that has nothing to do with your problem.

It looks like a problem with cec not installing or missing. Strange thing is my PPA which uses the same packaging builds fine

Just to complicate things further there is also another SD grabber that most of the devs use that also uses the JSON API called tv_grab_zz_sdjson_sqlite.

That one only uses the <source>.xmltv config files to point to the sqlite database and choose a lineup everything else is stored in the Sqlite DB.

Sure it could be done, is it worth spending the little amount of developer time available on it. I doubt it, I really think the upstream distros should fix there init system files and then this wouldn't be a problem.
