[mythtv-users] lcdproc not dispaying music data

   So before I splash out on an actual LCD device, I'm proving to myself that 
I'm happy I can see what I want by using a curses LCDd.

   Mythfrontend seems to talk to it happily enough, but I can't get the 
current music track displayed.  I get the current menu as it's navigated, and, 
when ticked, I get the time shown when the menu times out.  I also get the 
music 'menu' (playlist nav.) before it times out.

   I can see the music data (time into track, etc.) going to lcdproc (via 
etrhereal), but never get anything on-screen.  I even tried unticking 
everything bar the music info. but that just shows nothing.

   Myth 18.1, lcproc 0.4.5.  Is it that I didn't try the CVS 0.5 lcdproc?


   Side question:  is it possible in lcdproc to have two clients visible at 
once?  It'd be nice to have Myth in libes 1 & 2, and custom stuff in 3 & 4, 
but I guess i can get used to the display cycling (myth <-> custom).
