Comment (by danielk):

 (In [8789]) References #1147.

 * Checks for invalid file permissions in the RingBuffer so we can avoid
 trying to open a file we will never be able to open.
 * Checks if the RingBuffer succeeded in opening the file before starting
 an NVP.
 MythTV should now tell you if it doesn't have permission to read
 the recordings or the previews so you would at least know you had
 a configuration problem if you looked at the logs.

 The latter missing check may have caused the segfault, but I wasn't able
 to reproduce it; the posted segfault is for an earlier revision, and that
 particular segfault should aleady be fixed in SVN.

 Cougar, can you confirm this fixes the problem for you?
