[mythtv-users] mythtvosd mythmessage on the 0.24 line

What are people using now mythvosd doesn't work with the 0.24 line any 
more and there is no mythmessage?

I've looked at the src for mythmessage in the 0.25 line and tried to 
hack up a simple python version to test with on 0.24 and I'm still not 
getting anything up on screen.

Has anybody got a solution to putting messages up on screen with the 
latest 0.24 builds?

My python attempt:

import socket

MESSAGE='<mythmessage version="1"><text>HelloWorld</text></mythmessage>'

sock = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_DGRAM, socket.IPPROTO_UDP)
sock.setsockopt(socket.IPPROTO_IP, socket.IP_MULTICAST_TTL, 2)


sock.sendto (MESSAGE, ('',6948))
