I need to patch mythtv so I can get it to work. HOW?

[canukguy1974]

 I have downloaded the linuxmce8.10 svn. I tried to patch mythtv but, it fails 7 out of 10 on the first patch. So I changed the mythtv component to something that I could patch cleanly but, I can't compile it now Does ANYONE know how to do this so that we can use mythtv in North America.  The error that I get when trying to "MAKE" is

Code: [Select]

make[2]: *** [libmythupnp-0.21.so.0.21.0] Error 1

  I am sorry took a while to respond. I have been trying to patch it so I can scan providers in North America. I have tried to scan without patching it will find the provider but, it won't scan for channels (just times out). There are other patches for EIT guide data. I have read that the new version of LinuxMCE 0810 will allow the user to use what version of VDR they want? So I  have just reinstalled LinuxMCE and going to try VDR. I just use MythTV so I wanted to stick with that I have an xbox frontend.

vdr is DVB only... it is not compatible with North American Digital TV transmissions.

All the best
