That works well, but does yours display anything on the LCD other than
LCDProc defaults?  What is interesting is if I shutdown mythfrontend
and just run mythlcdserver on its own, it runs fine. I can jump onto
Mythweb and setup and recording, which displays on the LCD in all of
its glory.

I guess I should just be patient in the meantime, maybe mythlcdserver
will work with LCDProc 0.5.0 in myth 0.20? (I'm guessing that's the
issue, but I don't know for sure).

Thanks for the reply, Andy.
