[mythtv-users] LiveTV Broken or Bad Permissions?

[Martin West]

IMHO, I simple line in the README to say LiveTV is disabled would save a
lot of hassle. Seems lazy to me. I tried the SVN to get better support
for my DVB-T card and had the same problem. Why should I have to follow
the development forums. Im not a mythtv developer.

btw Ive only been programming for 40 years.
