I think my first mythtv setup took a few hours, 3-4-5, I'm not sure. It was in 2012 - old desktop PC with a receiver card, a laptop as frontend.
IIRC the mythtv-common triggers install of the basic needs. Did a setup for a friend last year, incl. DVB and PVR, took me an ~5 hours too.
afair, it's not because it is really so complex, it just takes a little time until you have gained an understanding of "how it works". In particular how MythTV works with tuners, channels, sources etc.
I forgot - I even wrote this:

Not an installation guide, just a success story!
Thanks Per, Gertjan. mythtv-common doesn't seem to pull in anything at all in YaST but is itself pulled in by mythtv-setup. I'll do a bit more reading until my card arrives and try to make some notes when I do set it up. Most of the documentation refers to mysql; does it work out of the box with mariadb instead, do you know? My experience with mysql just predates the mariadb split, and my dvb experience is even older. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
