I am experimenting with Kodi 17.0-alpha1 on both ubuntu 14.04 and win7. On win7 I have TV working using WMC backend. On ubuntu 14.04 I have mythtv 0.27 working. On ubuntu 14.04 and with kodi 16 the pvr-mythtv works. On kodi 17.0-alpha1 Git:bc0c579 pvr-mythtv installs, but does not start (the start button is dark). No kodi error logs are generated. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Weird, here it runs on my laptop win 10 using build at 03-28.
I haven t any win 7 to confirm it runs on this win version. But if kodi 17 works then the addon should work too.

Clarification - On windows 7 I am using the WMC backend with kodi 17 and that works fine. On ubuntu 14.04 I am using the mythtv backend which works fine with kodi 16, but on kodi 17 the pvr-mythtv installs, but does not start. There are no error logs generated.

There have been some breakages (pvr.mythtv not starting was just a symptom) in the last couple of days on Krypton, not surprising still early days in development.
I have just built 17.0-ALPHA1 Git:2016-03-30-2b038c8 on Ubuntu 16.04(dev) and Ubuntu Mate on Raspberry Pi2 , it works on both with my mythtv-backend (0.28pre)

Thanks Mike for the right explanation. I completely confused windows build and breakages caused by new changes in api or build system. You should use stable version (16.0) to avoid this unpleasantness.
