[mythtv-users] "unknown socket" error with Xbox frontend

I'm trying to get the python version of mythfrontend (xbmcmythtv)
working on my Xbox. I feel like I'm _very_ nearly there. I can view a
the program guide, a list of recordings and I can select one to see
more detail and a still image of it. However, when I come to play the
recording I hear the XBox disk stir but then nothing happens. No error
messages on screen, nothing moves, nada. It just stays there on the
detail program screen.

In the backend log I see this:
2005-04-13 23:59:30.538 MainServer::HandleAnnounce Playback
2005-04-13 23:59:30.539 adding: xbox as a client (events: 0)

2005-04-13 23:59:43.716 adding: xbox as a remote file transfer
2005-04-13 23:59:46.129 unknown socket

I'm assuming that the problem is the "unknown socket" line, but I have
no idea what it means nor what I need to do to get this working. I've
checked the archives but whilst this is mentioned I couldn't see what
the solutions were.

Can anyone help?

Regards,
Phill
