| Thorneo_ | got a few questions bout mythbuntu .. Can someone help with | 13:32 |
|---|---|---|
| Thorneo_ | I would like to setup a split system with front end at my tv's and servers in server closet. Can i watch live tv on front eads with tuners in back eads? | 13:36 |
| Jay2k1 | yeah | 13:43 |
| Jay2k1 | that's the idea behind having frontend and backend processes separated | 13:44 |
| Jay2k1 | you can have a combined FE/BE or separate FE and BE machines or even an backend and multiple frontends (living room, sleeping room, ...) | 13:45 |
| Thorneo_ | ok then can I watch live tv from the tuners??? | 13:54 |
| Thorneo_ | I tryied this with mythbuntu 8.04 a few years back and I could not get them to work correctly. Is it a little easier now with 14.04? | 13:57 |

| Jay2k1 | i don't really know | 14:28 |
| Jay2k1 | i started with mythtv 0.24 and a combined FE/BE | 14:28 |
| Jay2k1 | all that has changed since is i'm using 0.27 now :P | 14:28 |
| Thorneo_ | ok thank you for all the info so far.. It has really helped me out this far.. | 14:28 |
| Jay2k1 | but the whole concept is you can have a backend machine with lots of big noisy harddrives and lots of tuners somewhere in the basement and then a few slim, efficient, silent frontend machines that can do everything a local frontend could do too | 14:29 |
| Jay2k1 | including streaming recordings, watching live tv etc. | 14:29 |
| qwebirc84703 | Hi - if i already have a mysql server, do i need to install the one that comes with mythbuntu? Or can I just point the software to my database? | 22:48 |
| superm1 | qwebirc84703: you can point it at your existing one if you'd like | 22:57 |
| qwebirc84703 | If I install Mythbuntu, won't I get another database? Or do i need to install MythTV (just backend)? | 23:01 |
| tgm4883 | qwebirc84703: I don't have instructions to install it to another mysql server, but it should be doable | 23:03 |
| tgm4883 | Should just need to install mythtv-backend, but we need to get the db populated somehow | 23:03 |
| qwebirc84703 | Googling on the db population hasn't produced anything, but I would think there is a way also... | 23:11 |
