As of the latest "fixes" release, this problem has morphed slightly. Now every hour every front-end reports:
run-parts: /etc/cron.hourly/mythvideo exited with return code 1 The errors go to the jamu.log: # tail -25 /var/log/mythtv/jamu.log !

Warning - MythTV python bindings could not be imported Do we really need jamu running on every front end? That seems like a whole lotta duplication where every front-end is sharing the video location from the backend. I notice this bug has gone completely unacknowledged from anyone however so continuing to post to it is likely just a waste of my time. -- Error: The MythTV python interface is not installed or Cannot connect to MythTV Backend https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/485277 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mythbuntu Bug Team, which is subscribed to mythplugins in ubuntu.
