Description
These lines in the firewall needs to be changed to allow HDHomerun tuner to feed video stream and IR control.
file: /etc/sysconfig/iptables
-A INPUT -m state --state NEW -m udp -p udp -dport 5000 -j ACCEPT -A INPUT -m state --state NEW -m udp -p udp -dport 5002 -j ACCEPT -A INPUT -m state --state NEW -m udp -p udp -dport 5004 -j ACCEPT
to
-A INPUT -m state --state NEW -m udp -p udp -sport 5000 -j ACCEPT -A INPUT -m state --state NEW -m udp -p udp -sport 5002 -j ACCEPT -A INPUT -m state --state NEW -m udp -p udp -sport 5004 -j ACCEPT
note; the only change is the -dport to -sport because the stream is comming FROM the HDHomerun to a random input port on MythTV.
This change needs to be in the setup scripts? The clean install I did was not working at all until I turned off the firewall. No firewall is not an option for some networks. So I had to find the problems.
This does not appear to have anything to do with Myth code.
