issues?

Recently, and accidentally, updated from mythtv-0.25_pre20111102 to
mythtv-0.25_pre20111129, and now I'm having some serious buffering issues.
One recording will play fine, while many others will not.  In the frontend
log I see the following:

AAAAAffAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

getting any errors.

Suggestions?  Any idea how to rollback to the 20111102 build?  I still have
the gz in /usr/portage/distfiles of course, but not sure if I have the
ebuild file anymore.

The official Gentoo ebuilds are stored on a git server, so you should be
able to roll back to whatever version you want.
You will also have to restore your database if there were any schema updates
to it, so any recordings made since your upgrade will have to be re-added
after.
There used to be a utility to do this, the only thing I am finding at the
moment is http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Find_orphans.py which finds orphaned
files and allows you to delete them.
