Updating to mythtv-0.24.2-1

MythTV 0.24.2-1 and a newer is available in the mythdora-testing repo. A new version of QT is required to satisfy the dependency, it's also in the repo.

If you choose to upgrade perform the following:

yum clean all
yum --enablerepo=mythdora-testing install mythtv m2vrequantiser mythtv-themes qt

(m2vrequantiser required for mytharchive)

You should see the 0.24.2-1 rpms in the download items if the mirrors are populated.

Type "Y" to continue with installation.

MythDora Coming to and end....

It pains me a bit to write this, but it looks like the days of MythDora are numbered. Our plan for MythDora was to migrate to ElMyth (www.elmyth.org), but over the last year or so and waiting for CentOS we've kind of run out of steam.

A few months back we decided to try Scientific Linux instead, and since then I've made a lose attempt at getting a spin together. The bottom line is I just don't have the time like I used to now that I have 2.5 year old running around. Nor do I have the desire to code or test until the wee hours of the morning.

MythDora 12.23 Release Notes

Mythdora 12.23 has been released. There are a few changes from 10.21 but mostly on the cosmetic side of things. We're now using the stock mythtv theme out of the box, as well as stock paths. Please review the following release notes and use this link to retrieve the isos.

Thanks to all the beta testers for their support.

Upgrading MD 10.21 to Mythtv 0.22 RC1

With the 0.22 release right around the corner I thought it would be a good idea to have some update guidance available for the non-meek.

I've personally been running 0.22 on MD10 for a number of months with no issue, and now with a stable release candidate available it's time for people to start upgrading if they choose.

Just a note.. The recommended path to get to 0.22 in the immediate future will be through yum upgrade initially.. Then 11.22 or 12.22 will follow. The move the rpmfusion in MD10.21 really makes this a world easier than in the older versions of MythDora.

Wanted: Remote Control Setup Information

In preparation of MythDora 11 we are looking for your help. As you know, remote controls and blasting is a hassle for everyone. We're hoping to have as much configuration completed as possible in MD11 and hopefully most of the kinks in configs worked out.

We would like anyone & everyone that had to manually get their receiver/blaster setup that did not work with native MD10.21 tool to post their configurations here.

What we want (as comments to this page):

Remote name & model # if it applies (as it appears in the infrared configuration screen of md10.21)
/etc/lircd.conf

MythDora 10.21

MythDora 10.21 has arrived. That's right we've jumped ahead a few versions to catch us up with our Fedora baseline. The intent is that going forward we'll release versions in-line with current Fedora versions.

There are some major changes for us in this release. We've moved away from the Xdialog installer and into a single firefox configuration for the initial system setup. This same setup can be called via the MythDora Tools menu for a variety of features and for further maintenance as you use your system.

Updating to 0.24.1-3

MythTV 0.24.1-3 and a newer mythtv-themes is available in the mythdora-testing repo.

If you choose to upgrade perform the following:

yum clean all
yum --enablerepo=mythdora-testing install mythtv m2vrequantiser mythtv-themes

(m2vrequantiser required for mytharchive)

You should see the 0.24.1-3 rpms in the download items if the mirrors are populated.

Type "Y" to continue with installation.
