[mythtv-users] upgrade to .19 issues

Mike,

Thanks for the tip.  I ran the optimize_mythdb.pl script, and it did say it
repaired/optimized just about every table in the database.  I'm not too
surprised since the database is over a year old and it's never been run
before.  However, the issue still exists.

I built another frontend using FC5 and it's having the same problem, so I
tend to agree that it's some type of problem on the backend.

I'll set up a cron for optimize_mythdb.pl to run daily, just because it
seems like a good idea, but I don't know that it fixed the problem that I'm
having.

Any other ideas?

thanks,
Matt
