Okay, so the last lines when mythbackend dies are:

2006-07-27 21:18:19.925 read  <- 11 35      QUERY_REMOTEENCODER 
1[]:[]GET_STATE
2006-07-27 21:18:19.926 MainServer: HandleRemoteEncoder(cmd GET_STATE) 
Unknown encoder: 1, exiting
2006-07-27 21:18:19.926 MythSocket: readyread thread exit

Any help with what this indicates?
