Pretty sure fun isn't the word he's been using, although it does begin with the same two letters  :o

Nice!

do i have any testers for a really raw version that needs some command line interaction to get working ?

 

i don't have any sources to test with this thing, i'm looking for someone with a hd homerun and myth experience to give it a shot.

it will probably just pull up the setup routine and fail to start the backend, but i need someone to verify.

I am no expert but I do run a mythtv backend in a vm now with a HDHomerun.  I will do what I can to help.

ok, i'll flip it into my beta repo.

 

at this stage i'm just looking to see whether it will connect with a homerun. if the backend starts then that's a bonus, i'm not expecting it to. also there's no mythweb component yet, that's for further down the line.

 

you'll have to manually add a mapping for recordings, to set up recording groups etc...

 

put a recordings mapping in the template.

Ok  will do!

to get the setup screen to load,

 

once the container is loaded and started for a few minutes, issue this at the unraid command line

 

docker exec -it MythTv bash

 

and then

 

mysql_tzinfo_to_sql /usr/share/zoneinfo | mysql -uroot -p mysql

 

it will ask for a password, just press enter.

 

DON'T try and run that external to the container with exec, it won't work, it has to be inside the container.

 

then exit out.

 

you will also need to either use guacamole or RDP into the container at

 

<your unraid ip>:3389

 

username/passwd is root/root

 

 

the setup program is here...

I followed your commands and got it running. Went to setup and It did not find my HDhomerun but does give the option to manual add an IP of the Homerun and it still didn't find it. I went to scan for channels and it times out. I did enter my schedules direct tv guide info and it pulled the guide data down fine, but I could not view it since there is no mythweb part yet.

what port does hd homerun usually use.

I don't know that but I do know that I can type this on my mythtv vm command prompt (hdhomerun_config discover) and it will show me the id of my hdhomerun. I tried this on your docker and it did not understand the command so I guess mythubuntu vm I run already had that package installed.

HD homerun use port 65001 for discovering devices.

You can try to run the container with network type set to host. You should be able to see the HD homerun then if mister sparkly did a good job  :D

lol, give me a break, it's been a complete PITA just to get the config screen up.

 

i was going to expose that specific port in the template, but of course using host will do for testing.

Switched to Host and lost the SQL connection to database. Tried to reconnect but no go.

 

I will be back later as I a dinner date with the wife. Thanks Sparkly for all your hard work!

do you have another database instance on your unraid ?

 

because switching to host will probably knock it or the one inside the container out as they both fight for port 3306.

You mean this?  ;D

go back to bridge mode.

 

in the template add a port mapping

 

for

 

65001 , the same on both host and container side.
