[00:03:09] | TxJorge: | Hi, i'm trying to set up a new mythtv installation on Ubuntu 18.04. In trying to get kodi working as a front end on a separate machine, i now get the error message "all tuners are busy" when trying to use the default mythtv frontend on the master backend server. I'm using the hauppauge wintv quadhd usb as a tuner. |
[00:15:28] | mack: | TxJorge: mythfrontend was working before you started testing kodi? |
[00:16:07] | mack: | if so, make sure you press the Stop button to stop playback on your kodi boxes, otherwise playback continues. |

[00:20:02] | TxJorge: | i've never gotten playback to work with kodi. it just gives me the error "channel unavailable" |
[00:20:08] | TxJorge: | i've also rebooted both machines |
[00:23:43] | TxJorge: | i can scan for channels in the backend |
[00:31:57] | mack: | has mythfrontend ever worked? That would be the first thing to get working. |
[00:38:14] | mack: | my first instinct since you said this is a new installation is that you've got a user mismatch... a common problem with new users. The user running frontend needs to be in a group with access to video, also |
[00:39:07] | TxJorge: | yes, it had been working after I was fiddling with settings in host address backend setup |
[00:39:39] | TxJorge: | when I started mythbackend setup for the first time, it asked for my user to be added to the video group, which i did manually and logged out and logged in |
[00:39:48] | mack: | do you have EIT enabled on all your tuners? |
[00:40:13] | mack: | that will put them in use all the time |
[00:40:36] | TxJorge: | "use dishnet long-term eit data"? |
[00:40:43] | TxJorge: | that is unselected |
[00:43:48] | mack: | adding kodi as a frontend shouldn't have required any sort of change to the backend :) Maybe revert what you've done, lol. |
[00:46:27] | GWG: | I'm just mildly curious...how much storage space do people allocate for their recordings? |

[01:37:55] | mack: | GWG: I've got 2x4TB, but I don't use it as permanent storage. I watch and delete, or if I want to archive, I transcode and move to kodi library on NAS. |
[01:38:48] | GWG: | mack: I'm overdue to fix transcoding and moving to my NAS. I have 3TB in there, but I'm just behind on doing anything. I think transcoding has been broken for a decade. |
[01:39:02] | GWG: | Thinking of updating the drive, but maybe I'm better off fixing it |
[01:39:15] | mack: | aw crap, looks like I'm down to 1x4TB. Other one spewing SATA errors. |
[01:39:39] | GWG: | I used to do commercial cutting and transcoding back in the HD-PVR days |
[01:39:53] | GWG: | And when I was hooked into my cable box with Firewire |
[01:39:57] | GWG: | Ah, nostalgia |
[01:40:13] | mack: | I'm doing it less and less now with Netflix, Prime, D+. |
[01:46:21] | GWG: | I still like local. |
[01:46:35] | GWG: | But I'm pivoting more into ripping purchased media |

[01:49:36] | mack: | I'm literally looking at a meter-high stack of Blu-Rays on the to-be-ripped pile. |
[01:49:59] | mack: | That pile is waiting on HD space, though. |

[01:51:21] | mack: | Ordering drives, though, it waiting on new server hardware. And that is waiting on spare $$ because I don't want cheap anymore. |
[01:59:29] | GWG: | mack: What's your preferred HD brand/type? |
[01:59:42] | GWG: | I was reading about the WD Red quality issues since I last bought. |
[02:01:47] | mack: | I don't really have a brand loyalty. Seems like models from each company can be duds or have performance issues. Backblaze publishes reliability data on the drives they use in their data center. I usually use that as a guide to start from. |
[02:22:45] | GWG: | I feel like I need to give my MythTV backend some more love. |
[02:23:02] | GWG: | I think the last major thing I did was when I had to fix Schedules Direct |
