sharing it with us. I have question regarding SG. In my system I have
central headless BE and diskless FEs connected via GE LAN. Currently I'm
able to scan & watch pictures when FE&BE are on the same host. Trying to
watch pictures on remote FE gives: 2013-04-04 20:01:56.840353 E
MythUIHelper:
LoadScaleImage(myth://Pictures@localhost:6543//myth/gallery/Urodziny/18.11.2008/DSC00250.JPG)

because of: myth://Pictures@localhost: ^^^^^^^^^ localhost is for the
local machine you are on, if you want to use another machine to have the
images, then you'll need to give it the correct address, the ip address
should be enough. Make sure you also check the file path is the correct
one. Disclaimer: I don't run myth, and don't know the canonical way that
the myth system does it.

Unfortunately I
have only a combined backend frontend solution here. But it looks like
the problem is in the file gallerywidget.cpp in the method
CreateImageUrl(...) in line 575. 

Its either line 597
"gCoreContext->GetHostName()" or line 609 and 610. I'll look into that.
