IIRC, you have to enable it in the backend and also in the frontend. Look in the backend/general settings and the frontend/setup/video/playback.

Hello All, Thought I would pass on something I found out this last weekend. I had a failing 750GB drive in my master backend so I ordered a new 1TB from NewEgg for $50. The failing drive had 4 partitions, 10gb ext4 /, 2gb swap, 5gb ext4 /home, and the remainder was formatted JFS for recordings. Atta...

Thank you,

I plan on updating this weekend and wanted to have all my ducks in a row.

Dan Frey,

Could you please post what to watch out for for a MythBuntu upgrade from .25 to .26? You mentioned some things on the last podcast and I was not able to write them down. or please point me to a website with this info.

Thanks.

Hello all,

Just upgraded to .25 and now the OSD does not show the channel number. Where can I configure this option if it is available?

This week I had the "opportunity" to test restoring my master backend/frontend system due to a power outage problem. Even though this system is connected to a UPS, for some reason the system would not boot after a minor power blip. Here are the steps I took to get back to a fully functioning system ...

Things seem to be back to normal and I am seeing "New Topics" correctly.

perato, Thanks for your reply. Glad to see someone else besides me watches this forum. Your reply refers to an upgrade path, which I have done successfully in the past.

Pat & Dan,

Have you guys heard about this? Maybe Mark Kendall can be a future guest??

You might want to try Linux Mint Debian Edition.

Thanks for the quick reply. I think I finally found the problem. I loaded up a frontend on my laptop and I could not duplicate the problem that was on my main FE. So I duplicated some playback settings from the laptop to my main FE and it now seems to be working. EDIT: I think I spoke too soon. If I...

The MythTV IRC & mailing lists would be the places to go. I'll try this on my system to see if I have the same issue. Pat, I have tried the Myth IRC and mailing list with no solution. Have you tried this on your system yet? I'd really appreciate it if you would as I'd like to know if this is a prob...
