Jean-Yves never built support for PiP in his backport
(<URL:http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/371713#371713>),
and doesn't LiveTV preview use the PiP code?

The bad pixmap window error pops up when bringing up any kind of page
(Guide, Finder, Upcoming Recordings, etc.) without leaving playback,
which I suppose LiveTV preview is a variant of. It's harmless, as far
as I can tell; start reading from
