[00:12:33] Sabotender: yeah but installing all of those dependencies from the wiki is kicking my *$%% since it is recommended that I build my own package on Debian I always tried doing these things myself, before bothering people with questions. 😅
[00:15:01] mack: I don't recall installing anything
[00:17:09] Sabotender: oh did you install the prebuilt package associated with your distribution?
[00:19:54] mack: I think VLC just saw it. It's been a while. I had the second gen HDHR and have since decommissioned it.
[00:20:44] mack: There is a binary that you can scan the channels and such. I don't remember having to use that with vlc
[00:21:30] mack: Or maybe you changed the channel with that binary and then vlc connected? Like I said, it's been years :)
[00:21:43] Sabotender: oh, vlc! lol my mistake. I meant, installing dependencies, and building mythtv from source
[00:22:05] mack: oh god, installing mythtv from source.
[00:22:57] mack: ain't nobody got time for that anymore :)
[00:23:39] Sabotender: yes, absolutely. Debian recommended it, and I was following the wiki instructions.
[00:24:52] Sabotender: well, I just don't want to make any mistakes with this setup
[00:31:07] Sabotender: I need to be certain that I'm installing the correct version, because this single device is the front end, back in, recorder… Everything.
[00:40:28] mack: If this is a dedicated MythTV box, I would personally just install xubuntu, uninstall snapd, add the mythbuntu ppa, and then sudo apt install mythtv
[00:46:22] mack: There are times I stand on FSF principles, but in this case, I want something that's easy to install, easy to update, and it just works.
