I installed 6.03 ok w/hdhomerun working. now i want to install another capture device.

Where do i start the backend configuration - it's not obvious to me! :oops:

alt + h for help. :)

Stop the backend (alt + 2 -- or is it alt + 1? I forget which.)
alt + s for mythtv-setup

Alternatively, from the command line...

Code:
$ sudo sv stop mythbackend && mythtv-setup


Restart the backend with alt + 3 when done configuring.

These days if you just do Alt-S, the setup util is smart enough to ask and shutdown the BE for you. Then it's just a small matter of restarting it after you're done.

I don't know if I trust the auto backend shutdown. One time it got funky on me and the solution was to kill and start the backend. Btw 1 to start 2 to kill and 3 to restart.
