Setup HDHR3-4DC in MythTV

Post by beck.fabi »

I am new to mythtv and got problems by setup my network Tuner:
HDHomeRun Tuner
Model: HDHR3-4DC
Firmware: 20140405beta1
(German DVB-C)

I am using the latest mythbuntu 14.04.1.

If I run the channel scan on the web frontend of my HDHR3-4DC I got 200 channels. In addition I can watch the channels with the HD Homerun Software.
Entering the MythTv Backend Setup: Input connections/choose Tuner/ hit scan for channels: 13 channels were found and most of them does not work.
If I hit the Fetch channels from listing source nothing happens.

Are there other ways to config the other channels?
It would be great if someone could help me to setup the tuner correctly.

kind regards,
Fabian

Nobody can help me with the problem?
This is a really annoying problem...
Is there a way to configure the channels manually...or got someone a similar problem?

If Dennis' procedure works, perhaps one of you could update the wiki:

The entry for the DVB-C version currently links to the Dual model page but that is not right. Those of us in North America aren't much help as we can't test this process...

Thank you Dennis!
I also found the same solution a week ago ;-)

At the moment I got some trouble watching live TV and recording (also just one thing at the time).
I got picture failures and after a while the frontend applikation is crashing.
I'm using an intel nuc D54250WYK, with 4gb memory. Exit Code 139.

greetings,
Fabian
