Hi:

I've upgraded to Myth 24.1 (frontend and backend) recently and there seems to be a problem with mythpreviewgen.  The executable is present in the MythBackend.app bundle (at MythBackend.app/Contents/MacOS/mythpreviewgen) but I have hundreds of lines in my backend log like the following:

>2012-01-11 10:00:02.786 Preview Error: Remote Preview failed due to communications error.
>2012-01-11 10:00:02.787 PreviewQueue Error: Failed to find token 1571_2012-01-11T09:00:00:1837404194 in map.
>2012-01-11 10:00:29.737 Using runtime prefix = /Applications/AudioVisualMusic/Myth/MythBackend.app/Contents/Resources
>2012-01-11 10:17:29.430 Preview Error: Run() cannot generate preview locally for: '/Volumes/Theatre/Mythical/1091_20120111100000.mpg'
>2012-01-11 11:30:35.367 Using runtime prefix = /Applications/AudioVisualMusic/Myth/MythBackend.app/Contents/Resources

Is this working for others?  If so, how do you start up the backend: launchd, startupitem, something else?  I *think* this worked OK for me when I was testing the backend from Terminal but not since I set up launchd to start it automatically at boot.
