Comment (by stuartm):

 It's not a bug, but instead an instance of the code that needs fixing
 since it's incorrectly passing the IP address where a hostname MUST be
 used. The confusion here is because what mythtv means by hostname in this
 context is not the same as a hostname which resolves to an IP. The
 'hostname' is in fact the 'backend name' and it must be used here in order
 to properly look up records in the database which use that same
 identifier.

 The logging in GenMythUrl is correctly noting that this is code which
 needs to be fixed.
