Should it be possible to use an HDHomeRun Dual tuner connected directly to a network adapter on an OpenELEC system running the Tvheadend backend? According to the MythTV site this should be possible using a MythTV backend, but I'm using Tvheadend. So far I have been unsuccessful trying to get it to work.
I'm running the OpenELEC 64-bit Intel 2.99 RC3 release. I have enabled the HDHomeRun dvbhdhomerun add-on, and configured it with the HDHomeRun's Device ID.
I have enabled the Tvheadend backend and frontend add-ons. The computer is connected to the network via an Ethernet cable connected to the motherboard's onboard NIC. The HDHomeRun Dual tuner is connected to the computer via a TRENDnet TU2-ET100 10/100Mbps USB 2.0 network adapter (an adapter I saw mentioned by another poster in this forum).
I would assume OpenELEC is using the first network connection in the OpenELEC settings module for network access, and I configured that connection accordingly. I do have LAN and Internet access to and from the OpenELEC box, as I can connect to it over the LAN and OpenELEC is able to pull down add-ons. I set up the second network connection in the OpenELEC settings module as closely as possible to the MythTV guide for using an HDHomeRun tuner directly connected with a static IP.
Here's the thing. I have an existing HDHomeRun tuner on the LAN (which I don't want to use with this OpenELEC box). The Tvheadend backend seemed to see this tuner, until I disabled that tuner's Device ID in the dvbhdhomerun add-on config. I of course also added the Device ID of the HDHomeRun Dual tuner directly connected to the OpenELEC system to the appropriate section in the dvbhdhomerun add-on's config file, but the Tvheadend backend doesn't detect this tuner.
I'm not sure where to go at this point, and would appreciate any ideas anyone might have as to what I might try next.
