After successfully running MythTV on Fedora for almost a year now (thanks to Jarod's guide!), I recently decided to setup a second PC for running a remote frontend in my bedroom.
Setup went fine & everything is working great on my new machine, but I have encountered a very strange problem when setting up the communications between the remote frontend & the backend machine.
When I change the Host IP address & Master Server IP address in mythtvsetup (as per Jarod's guide on this page: http://wilsonet.com/mythtv/tips.php ), 2 things happen:
1. In the frontends on both my main machine & the remote machine, I can no longer watch Live TV. The message I receive is the same one for when all capture cards are currently recording. I have both a PVR150 and PVR250 in my machine, and at the time of this message neither card is recording. Both cards work fine when used to capture video via a command line prompt. In essence, the cards are not doing anything even though Myth says they are.
2. In those same machines, I can no longer schedule any recordings nor do I show any recordings as being previously scheduled. I can attempt to schedule a program to record, but it doesn't appear to "save" my request. The backend shows no errors from these attempts.
As soon as I change the Host IP & Master Server IP back to the loopback address, everything is fine again. I can watch Live TV, my scheduled recordings have returned & I can queue shows to record.
It has completely baffled me, and I have no idea what the problem might be. Any help would be appreciated, and if anyone needs more information just let me know. Thank you!
The backend shows no errors for any of this, and
