<p>I am running 2x HDHomeRun Connects on MythTV 0.29 without any problems. At least none that I am aware of.</p>
<p>My Myth backend is KVM VM running Fedora 26. The VM isn't new and has been through multiple Fedora and MythTV upgrades. Each HDHomeRun tuner is configured with the maximum 5 encoders (so 20 total) and does multiple recordings and livetv simultaneously no problem.</p>

<div dir="ltr">Hi all, I have an issue with a brand new MythTV installation that i wonder if anybody has seen before. I've been using MythTV for many years on an ancient AMD AthlonXP with MythBuntu 14.04 that is slowly dying, so thought I would splash out and update to a nice modern setup.
<div> </div>
<div>So we have:</div>
<div> * new intel cpu, motherboard, ram</div>
<div> * Ubuntu 17.10</div>
<div> * MythTV 0.29</div>
<div> * HDHomeRun Connect (NZ / AU dual tuner version)</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Software cleanly installed. Mythbackend setup seems to go well. Added one capture cards (tuners 0 on the HDHomeRun). Added video source, connected them up in the 'Input Connections', scanned for channels. All ok at this point, so i start up MythFrontend and view LiveTV. It works first time (yay).</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Now the issue. I stopped the frontend, went into the backend setup and added the second HDHomeRun tuner. A quick reboot later for some updates, and now Live TV no longer works. I get the following error in the backend log:</div>

<div>ok - so I've now gone into the backend MANY times and fiddled with the capture settings. Deleted and reinstalled the capture cards. Delete and reinstalled the video source, inputs, and channels. updated software, rebooted machine. Nothing works. I'm at a loss... No matter what I do, the error is always the same - <strong>Unknown tuner type = 0xffffffff80000000</strong>. Database repair via MythWeb shows no issues. Note that that I can successfully SCAN for channels - this always works fine. It is just live TV. I'm not trying to use multi-rec at the moment, so number of virtual tuners is set to '1'.</div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div>I wondered if it was the HDHomeRun itself, so I tried adding the HDHomeRun to that ancient Athlon mythbox I mentioned above. But it works just fine - no issues at all... So its not the HDHomeRun.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I'm wondering if there is a regression in MythTV 0.29 that prevents it from working with HDHomeRuns ? Anyone seen something like this before? Is anyone successfully using HDHomeRun with MythTV 0.29?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Cheers</div>
