Mythtv says
Could not connect to master backend server --is it running? Is he ip address set for it in the program in correct


I dont know how to check the master backend server but I did set the ip to my local ip which is 102.1.12.102

there is a mythbackend service which needs to be runing on the server machine. if you only have one machine then this is naturally the same box.

I got the backend running, How do i configure my ip?

I am runnning both the backend and the frontend on the same machine
heres what i get when i start the backend
