Fresh install of Ubuntu 18 LTS. Then sudo apt-get install mythtv. All seemed OK.
Click on the 'mythtv-setup' icon and it pops up a message saying that i'm not in the mythtv group, but it can add me in (sudo access required) - I click through, it logs me out, and I log back in again.
But I get the same pop up each time I go round the loop.
I checked that I am in the group...
Code: Select all
blahblah@quietpc:~$
grep mythtv: /etc/group
mythtv:x:129:blahblah
blahblah@quietpc:~$
I have now clicked the 'do you want to ignore this error and carry on' message and it goes through to the MythTV Startup Status screen seems to have completed OK. I needed to change the password for the database from mythtv to the one in /etc/mythtv/config.xml
but mythtv-frontend complains it cannot connect to the master backend
