Thanks!
FYI I am seeing a crash something like
https://github.com/MythTV/mythtv/issues/754
or
https://github.com/MythTV/mythtv/pull/984
which seems to be a Qt6 thing? I just get a black screen.
Setting `export MYTHTV_NO_EGL=1` as suggested in those lets
mythfrontend start up, and a video play fine, but when I exit a video
the menu is scaled super large so I just get the bottom corner (maybe
1/8th of it or so?) I guess it is not switching back to the right GUI
resolution. I'll have a play with setting that to something smaller
(3840x2160 might be a bit excessive for the UI!)
Is qt5 gone or is there a possibility to rebuild with that until this
issue is resolved upstream?
Cheers,
Ian.
