#4207: MythTV.pm doesn't check return code of read.
-------------------------------+--------------------------------------------
Reporter: andrew at etc.gen.nz | Owner: xris
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: minor | Milestone: unknown
Component: perl / nuvexport | Version: 0.20.2
Severity: medium | Mlocked: 0
-------------------------------+--------------------------------------------
When the data is read from the backend there is no checking of the return
code for the read.
This can lead to $length being the empty string which then causes Perl to
throw an error when it tries to do integer($length).
The attached patch protects from this. I haven't seen the problem
personally (it was reported to me) so I haven't been able to fully check
it (but the reporter is no longer seeing errors).
