I have just done an Xubuntu 18.04 + MythTV 29+fixes install in<br>
VirtualBox using an IPTV tuner, and it all seems to be working, except<br>
EPG which I have not set up yet. The only problem I had was getting<br>
the audio working, which required changing the virtual machine<br>
settings from AC97 to Intel HD emulation. I even remembered to<br>
install MariaDB before installing MythTV so I did not get MySQL<br>
installed by default.<br>
