[mythtv-users] connection timeout (frontend won't talk to backend on same system)

[Chris McCuller]

here's the relevant debug output (mythfrontend -v socket) from the 
frontend as I try to Watch Live TV and get the error message that it 
can't connect to the backend (running on the same box).

this help with trying to ascertain what's going on?

Thanks!
