Hi,

I have made three small patches that I'd like to contribute.

1. Mythbackend communications
With the patch Mythtv exits if the backend closes the connection while 
watching live TV, instead of locking. It also makes it possible to 
recover from some backend failures. Mythtv will try to reconnect to the 
backend if there are no remote file transmissions in progress, for 
example live TV. 

2. External Channel Change
Added channel number argument to the call of the external channel change 
program. This is useful in Europe.

3. Mythplugin
When debugging it's nice to know why loading of a plugin fails. Added 
dynamic library error string (dlerror).
