Introduction
mythtv-setup is a configuration utility for configuring Mythbackend. This utility must be used before attempting to run the backend for the first time.
Note: Nearly all settings in mythtv-setup require that mythbackend be restarted before they take effect. If your backend is running, mythtv-setup has the option to close mythbackend before running. If using MythBuntu, this will be performed automatically by a wrapper script.
By running myhtv-setup one gets...
- General
- Capture cards
- Video sources
- Input connections
- Channel Editor
- Storage Directories
- System Events

- mythfilldatabase -- you will want to run this program after making any additions or changes to the channel lineup in "video sources" or "channel editor".
All these sections are briefly explained in:
- The MythTV manual - Configuring MythTV by Robert Kulagowski.
- The Wiki-based manual - Backend configuration
