Can't use Mythtv addon - usernamegoesher - 2013-01-16
I have the latest MythTV addon from git and XBMC Media Center 12.0-RC3 Git:20130111-1336ec7
I have previously had MythTV support working back when it was first introduced but I've had to do a reinstall. Mythtv itself is working fine for me in all respects.
"MythTV Version : v0.26.0
MythTV Branch :
Network Protocol : 75
Library API : 0.26.20120822-1"
========================================
When I enter my information into the Configure section of the addon setup and press "Enable" it informs me there's an error and I should check the logs. To the best of my knowledge my password to the mysql database matches ~/.mythtv/mysql.txt and the backend is running.
The following is from my logs with debugging enabled:

Is your backend setup to allow access from your xbmc machine? Typical first timer mythtv installer puts it all on localhost, and then other clients from other machines have trouble accessing.

Mythtv and XBMC are all on the same machine. localhost.

It fails to load the addon file. Where did you get the addon from? What platform are you running?
RE: Can't use Mythtv addon - usernamegoesher - 2013-01-17
I got the addon from https://github.com/opdenkamp/xbmc-pvr-addons
I am running Debian Testing.
RE: Can't use Mythtv addon - nickr - 2013-01-17
So you compiled it yourself?

That's correct. Unfortunately I could not find a pre-compiled zip.
