DESCRIPTION

       mythbackend version: fixes/33 [v33.0+fixes.20230210.026e506-0ubuntu0] www.mythtv.org

       MythBackend  is  the  primary  server application for MythTV. It is used for recording and
       remote streaming access of media. Only one instance of this application is allowed to  run
       on  one  host  at  a  time,  and one must be configured to operate as a master, performing
       additional scheduler and housekeeper tasks.

       Misc. Options: -d OR --daemon              Fork application into background after startup.
       --dvbv3                     Use legacy DVBv3 API.  --noupnp                    Disable use
       of UPnP.  -O OR --override-setting    Override a single setting defined by a key=value

              pair.

       --override-settings-file    Define a file of key=value pairs to be loaded for

              setting overrides.

       -p  OR  --pidfile              Write  PID  of  application  to  filename.    --printexpire
       Print  upcoming  list  of  recordings  to  be  expired.  --printsched                Print
       upcoming list of scheduled recordings.  --setloglevel               Change  logging  level
       of the existing master

              backend.

       --setverbose                 Change  debug  mask  of  the  existing master backend.  -h OR
       --help OR --usage     Display this help printout, or give detailed

              information of selected option.

       --version                   Display version information.   --testsched                  do
       some  scheduler  testing.   --user                      Drop permissions to username after
       starting.

       Logging Options:  --enable-dblog               Enable  logging  to  database.   --loglevel
       Set the logging level.  All log messages at lower

       levels will be discarded.
              In descending order: emerg, alert, crit, err, warning, notice, info, debug defaults
              to info

       --logpath                   Writes logging messages to a file in the directory

       logpath with filenames in the format:
              applicationName.date.pid.log.  This is typically used in combination with --daemon,
              and  if  used  in  combination  with --pidfile, this can be used with log rotators,
              using the HUP call to inform MythTV to reload the file

       -q OR --quiet               Don't log to the console (-q).  Don't log anywhere

              (-q -q)

       --syslog                    Set the syslog logging facility.

              Set to "none" to disable, defaults to none.

       --systemd-journal           Use  systemd-journal  instead  of  syslog.   -v  OR  --verbose
       Specify log filtering. Use '-v help' for level

              info.
