I'm planning to install MythTV. It's not clear to me so far exactly what I need to install or what I need to do.
YaST lists a bunch of mythtv packages from packman. The latest available seems to be 27 whilst I understand the current version of mythtv is 29. I don't see any particular package that installs it. The closest I have found is mythtv-0_27-setup and its description says "MythTV provides a unified graphical interface for recording and viewing television programs. Refer to the mythtv package for more information. This package contains only the setup software for configuring the mythtv backend."
But there is no mythtv package listed.
As it happens, I think I do want the backend, because I'm installing a tuner card (TBS6205) so I can record programmes. I intend to then export them over my network to a FireTV box plugged into my TV and running kodi, although I'm open to better ideas. I don't yet know whether I'll want any separate means of controlling what mythtv records on the server.
google has led me to the mythtv wiki but I haven't found anything there that fills me with confidence yet. https://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Setup_General seems close but is for the current version, not the old version on packman.
google also shows various people apparently overwhelmed by complexity, which is why I'd like to find an accurate set of instructions. Does anybody know of one?
