Unfortunately the maintainer of MythNetVision seems to have abandoned it so it is slowly bit-rotting so parts of it are now failing. It will still make it into v30 due shortly but I wouldn't be surprised if it was removed for the next release unless someone takes the time to fix it. Volunteers alway...

That message doesn't necessarily mean there is a problem, you will get it if you run mythfilldatabase twice in quick succession because the second time it is run there is no new data to insert into the database.

The mythbackend.log is what you want. Depends on how you start the BE if it is created and where. I would start looking in /var/log/mythtv/

You can always just stop the BE and run it in a console to see the log output. You may have to start it as user mythtv to get it to work though.

Well at least that is one puzzle solved :) Don't know why you are getting the 'Driver not loaded' errors that would appear to be key and could be pointing to a Qt installation problem. Doesn't look like a permissions problem but wont do any harm to check the database is there and you can access it f...

When i check the libraries used for the mythtv executables, only sqlite appears. I'd expect to see libQt5Sql. mythtv@myth ~ % ldd =mythtv-setup.real|grep sql libsqlite3 => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libsqlite3 (0x00007f1563fe2000) mythtv@myth ~ % ldd =mythfrontend.real|grep sql libsqlite3 => /usr/li...

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all MythTV users

We should definitely try to get your work at least documented so others can take a look. I really think a lot of things like these should be incorporated into MythTV itself since it's something that a lot of people could use but it is a lot of work to maintain which I think puts a lot of people of. ...

Looks like '+' should be OK so that isn't it.

Something is mangling the version and is adding a ':' character that is the real problem.

I'm no debian expert so take this with a pinch of salt :) I know the debian packaging have recently been updated so Launchpad will build and publish them so something may have got broken in the process. This commit looks like it could be the problem one https://github.com/MythTV/packaging/commit/ef0...

Did you try pressing PAGEUP/PAGEDOWN? They are usually set to increment/decrement in larger amounts.

I've just updated my parents box which is on Ubuntu 18.04.1 and MythTV master and it updated without any problems so could just be a v29 problem. Looking at one of my frontend it looks like you should have a themes.zip file in ~/.mythtv/tmp/ that was modified today. You should also have a bunch of d...

Is the backend running? You can check by running in a terminal Is there any errors in the log?

The 2019 version of the MythCenterXMAS-wide theme is now available in the theme chooser as version 1.8 for 29.0 and 30.0-pre (master). This version contains all new background images and despite global warming it's still snowing :) I noticed a bug in the theme updater in that it never removes old fi...

This has been discussed recently here [Solved]"Deleting a recording fails to delete the associated media files"

Have you checked the BIOS to see if there is an option to allow USB keyboards to wake the PC up?
