Just setup Mythweb, I tried streaming and successfully played a Simpsons
episode in VLC just fine (this is from my desktop box, acting as FE for
server BE in basement). However, after the first successful playback, trying
any recording will load but chop up playback for about 2-3 seconds and then
just freeze. I checked http error_log and saw this:

[Mon Jan 03 00:43:16 2011] [error] [client 192.168.1.101] Argument "" isn't
numeric in numeric lt (<) at modules/stream/stream_raw.pl line 86.

(The client denied by server config is ignorable as it was just waiting for
me to input user/pass into VLC)

Checking the ~/public_html/mythweb/modules/stream/stream_raw.pl file now,
this is lines 84-88:

    # Figure out the size of the requested chunk
        ($start, $end) = $ENV{'HTTP_RANGE'} =~ /bytes\W+(\d*)-(\d*)\W*$/;
        if ($end < 1 || $end > $size) {
            $end = $size;
        }

I really want to use VLC as a player for recordings through Mythweb so I can
watch them in a window while using Firefox, writing, etc. Appreciate any
help to resolve this, thanks folks.
