[mythtv-users] Will 0.11 Frontend (on Xbox) work with 0.12 Backend?

[Keith Hanlan]

I have a 0.12 backend running and now I would like to install the
front-end on my Xbox. Will I be able to make use of Dennis
Cartier's bittorrent image (which is currently based on 0.11) at
all or am I going to have to roll-my-own 0.12? Alternatively, is
there a 0.12 image for the Xbox available somewhere else?

Dennis' faq states:

   9. I can boot into Linux and X comes up but MythTV does not
      launch?
	 Are you running the same version of MythTV on the backend
	 as you are on the XBOX? The current build (0.3) has
	 0.11 in it. Also make sure the security settings on your
	 MySQL DB allow access from the XBOX. Otherwise MythTV
	 will NOT run."

But that's somewhat ambiguous because the last sentence may refer
only to the MySQL security settings or it may only apply to
backend versions *older* than 0.11.

Any clarification would doubtless help me avoid wasting time
(which is in short supply when I'm trying to do this without the
wife or kids noticing...)
