Hi all,
When I activate the command 'New Video Source', mythtv-setup gets stuck (set up gui stops responding to keyboard or mouse commands), I do not get the third item, only New and Delete All video sources are shown. Any suggestions? Please let me know if I need to provide other information.
Regards, Rene
I have a celeron with ubuntu desktop, 22.10.
I have mythtv:
apt-cache policy mythtv
mythtv:
Installed: 2:32.0+fixes.202301091618.e677dd354f~ubuntu22.10.1
/var/log/mythtv/mythtv-setup does not show much I think (entries after activating 'New Video Source'):

The console also does not show much I think (entries after activating 'New Video Source'):

Re: New Video Source gets mythtv-setup stuck
It seems to be a problem that only affects 22.10 for some reason.

Re: New Video Source gets mythtv-setup stuck
Hopefully you noted the workaround is easy for now. Use ssh -X $USER@localhost to run mythtv-setup for the Video Source setup.
While this topic is under the Raspberry Pi category, the instructions are basically the same for x86_64 PCs

Re: New Video Source gets mythtv-setup stuck
Yes, this 'ssh -X' trick worked on my system as well. Everything else works fine, I just verified the frontend to test live TV. Thanks for your help, this thread can be closed.

Re: New Video Source gets mythtv-setup stuck
If you're happy with the fix could you possibly added [Solved] to the subject line in the first post?
