Firewire and Rosetta

In the gotchas section, there is a bit about fixing Firewire problems with Rosetta

• is this even necessary any more?
• will it even work on 10.7+?

Somebody using Firewire please comment. Brianboonstra 15:39, 31 March 2012 (UTC)

MySQL Startup

I do not recommend the prefPane startup because it depends on the user account. I have edited the page to include that method alongside the server-style method, however.Brianboonstra 21:46, 30 March 2012 (UTC)

GPU Acceleration Done

Does the fact that http://code.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/2381 has been marked fixed mean that 0.25 and beyond will actually be using GPU acceleration? Brianboonstra 14:01, 27 September 2011 (UTC)

Launchd plist file may have an error under OS Mavericks

I noticed that the plist file for starting the backend using Launchd may have an error as the location given for the MythBackend application did not exist on OS Mavericks.

<string>/Applications/MythBackend/MythBackend.app/Contents/MacOS/MythBackend</string>

I tried the following and now have a working (and launching ) backend:

<string>/Applications/MythBackend.app/Contents/MacOS/MythBackend</string>

This really just has to do with where somebody put the app. I think it's safe to assume that a person savvy enough to be using launchd will be able to put in the correct path. It's worth a note in the instructions, though. Brianboonstra 15:07, 29 January 2014 (UTC)
