using dreambox as Tuner for Mythtv (Ubuntu)
This is a How To for using Dreambox as a Tuner for Mythtv on Ubuntu
1- Install Ubuntu
there is allot of resources for this (i use 9.04)
2- Install Mythtv
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install mythtv
add channel name, channel number, Video source "w"
you can get the channel number from the decoder channel list
that is all for now, i'll keep updating it
1- Install Ubuntu

2- Install Mythtv
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install mythtv
It will take a few minutes to download and install. It will pops up a few dialogues:
- It will ask you for a password for the MySQL root user. It is strongly recommended that you leave this blank. Specifying a password here has been known to cause database access problems later on. It may seem insecure, but on your home network should be okay.
- The second screen asks whether you want to allow remote connections to your backend. As a rule, that's not something I would usually recommend (ouch!), but as long as your MythTV box is behind a firewall I suggest that you answer "Yes" - it will make it much easier if you want to add a separate frontend in the future.
- It then gives some information regarding running
mythtv-setup
to complete the process - we'll go through that in the next section. - It then asks you again whether you want to specify a password for the MySQL root user. Again leave this blank unless you know what you're doing.
- The installation process has generated a password for your user to log into the MySQL database. See the file
/etc/mythtv/mysql.txt
. You won't need this yet, but it's worth bearing in mind.
Capture Card
Select (New capture card). For a DVB card, change the Card Type to "DBOX2 TCP/IP cable box".
add the ip of the dreambox
leave all other values
Video source
This defines the source of the schedule listings. I dont know exactly what to do here but i make it EIT and named it wInput Connections
This associates our Dreambox with the video source. Set the Video source to the one we've just defined, "w".
as i did not yet find a way to scan channels, so we will do a manual chaned editChannel edit
Select new channeladd channel name, channel number, Video source "w"
you can get the channel number from the decoder channel list
5- Testing the Configuration
Now you can exit the setup utility. It will ask you if you want to run mythfilldatabase. Answer NO.
Now run a MythTV Frontend from the menu: Applications->Sound & Video->MythTV Frontend
Select "Watch TV"that is all for now, i'll keep updating it
