[16:52:00] tech10: Hello! I installed MythTV then removed it then re installed it to enable the "Other MythTV on the network" option but it didn't ask it when i reinstalled it, what can i do?
[16:58:48] mack: tech10: I'm not in front of a myth box, but according to the wiki, I think the setting you're looking for on the new myth install is in Host Address Backend Setup, page 3 (?). Checkbox for "This server is the Master Backend". Uncheck that, then fill out the master backend host field.
[16:59:52] mack: (from https://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Setup_General#Hos . . . up_.28v29.29 )
[17:00:27] mack: unless the options changed again since v19 :)
[17:00:33] mack: v29
[17:01:45] tech10: that isn't what i was looking for, there was an option the first time i installed mythtv which was a checkbox (i installed it from the package manager) that said "Other MythTV on the network (use this in case there are other mythtv frontends/backends on the network)"
[17:02:58] tech10: or something along those lines
[17:03:42] tech10: i also installed it on another machine but i installed it using "sudo apt install mythtv" and it appeared but as a yes/no dialog in the terminal
[17:04:59] mack: if you want that, then do whatever reconfigure your package manager supports, if it does. Debian type systems usually use dpkg-reconfigure, for example.
[17:06:43] tech10: ok let me try
[17:08:22] tech10: didn't work
[17:09:02] mack: just go into setting and untick the box?
[17:09:30] tech10: it wasn't in mythtv, it was while i was installing it
[17:09:47] tech10: i'm using the latest version of linux mint if it can help
[17:10:59] mack: the package manager's configure options at install time are just a courtesy. You can easily change settings yourself after install.
[17:11:40] mack: likewise on first-run of mythtiv. Those settings can be changed later, too
[17:12:06] mack: (wow, I'm having trouble typing today)
[17:13:28] tech10: i can't find the setting in mythtv
[17:13:35] tech10: both backend and frontend setting
[17:13:38] tech10: s
[17:14:18] tech10: i'm installing mythtv in a vm to see that question again
[17:21:27] tech10: found it
[17:21:28] tech10: https://ibb.co/kJbK0Zx
[17:22:48] mack: ah, that setting is for mysql/mariadb connections.
[17:23:02] mack: as the package manager is installing that
[17:23:05] tech10: anyways
[17:23:10] tech10: i fixed it
[17:23:26] tech10: sudo dpkg-reconfigure mythtv-database
[17:23:30] mack: nice :)
[17:23:30] tech10: thanks!
