Feature requests & roadmap / Re: viewing of in progress recordings

Yes! I know what you mean about that pop up!! I too await the next release, I haven't fully implemented LinuxMCE because of the Mythtv glitches. I hope to soon (0710), what a great project.

Feature requests & roadmap / viewing of in progress recordings

« on: November 06, 2007, 06:08:22 am »

It would be great if LinuxMCE would allow viewing of recorded programs like Mythtv does. My wife like to start watching her shows about 20 minutes after they start and she cant just select videos and locate the show but instead has to goto TV and find it in Myth. She is not very good on anything electronic, does this sound like something that could be implemented?

Users / Re: Cant login to LinuxMCE Admin

« on: October 29, 2007, 05:20:26 am »

I too had some trouble logging in to LinuxMCE web admin panel.

I DID read the Install prompts but my username and password didnt work.

I tried

username/username

username/password

linuxmce/linuxmce

root/password

and a bunch or others. I recommend doing the password reset as follows if you cant log in, must be a bug. Before you can run these commands you will need to goto your user accounts and enable root then change the password to something you know.

   

Code: [Select]


su root

mysql pluto_main

   select * FROM Users;

You will see a list of the users in the database. Then type in this:

   update Users set Password=md5("mypassword") where UserName="myusername";
   quit;

Where mypassword is the new password and myusername is the username.

Installation issues / DHCP is inoperative!!

« on: October 29, 2007, 05:14:03 am »

OK so I have rounded up enough old equipment to test a LinuxMCE setup in my "lab"

Here's where I stand,

Install was easy and I plan to make this work no matter what it takes.

Other than a few MythTV burps and burbles all that I seem to be stumped with is the DHCP server.

On the initial install I selected NO for DHCP server, I have since added a NIC and used the Web Admin interface to enable it. I still have internet connectivity on ETH0 but after 7 restarts and umpteen core restarts still no DHCP. If I statically assign a PC connected to the switch I can use 10.10.1.1 to access the web admin page but just no DHCP.

I have set up the ETH1 to bootp and as I stated I have done ALOT of restarts with no luck.

Anyone have a pointer or two for me?
