My understanding is that those were QAM related.  I'm doing 8vsb (OTA).

I have built the latest Myth (from SVN, fixed branch) but I'd like to make
sure it isn't something fundamental first.

Frankly, I'm a bit anxious about updating to an SVN version.  First, I have
to deal with backing up the database in case there are schema changes.  Then
I have to deal with LD_LIBRARY_PATH type issues trying to run the SVN
version (in a different path).  Then I might find that while it fixes my
problem it might introduce other problems (since it isn't an official
release).  Before I go down that road I just want to make sure it isn't some
other problem (e.g. screwed up channel definitions) that will still happen
even with the new version.

I was getting backend crashes every time I tried to

Were these QAM related or OTA related?
