I'm running MythTV 0.19. I know liveTV is problematic, but I don't
watch live tv anyway - why would I, when I have a PVR :)

Another update on the saga. It appears that the MVP connecting to my
backend is doing something funky / not nice to my backend. Once this
funky thing happens, the MVP will not connect anymore.

Here's the sequence of events:
Yesterday: try connecting to mythtv from MVP, no dice (get connect to
mythtv server failed. give up playing with mvp, later that day,
mythbox is running "weird": frontend is slow, fast forward doesn't
work and time display is wrong when watching a recording.
Restart mythbackend thinking something funky must have happened
(although the box has been rock solid stable up until now). MythTV box
is happy
Today: try connecting to mythtv from MVP, get database listing of
recorded shows (yay - progress!), pick a show to watch and the
progress bar comes up, then the MVP "reboots" (i.e. goes to the black
with green text startup screen before the mvpmc menu displays).
Wife calls out that mythtv is "acting weird" again
Excited by progress, I ignore wife and try to connect to mythtv from
MVP again but it won't connect (same as before, it displays the
progress bar for about two minutes then says "Connect to mythtv
failed")
Check up on mythtv box and its doing the same sluggish stuff as
before. Restart mythbackend and mythtv is good again.
A couple of hours later, connect to mythtv from MVP, see listings (yay
again), pick a show to watch, MVP reboots, MythTV broken again :(

Give up.

Could the MVP be killing my backend? I am running mythtv 0.19_p10505
(Gentoo portage release) on Gentoo 2.6.16-gentoo-r9

Anyone else running this with myth 0.19? What about daily build vs.
mvalleland? Right now I am on the daily build from Saturday.

Thanks

Robin
