Yup, I found your quick adaptive patch and applied it. It seems a bit
better but could be better. I may just force it to 3.0 or 3.1.

Now I just have to figure out why it's not streaming to my phone. I
tried stopping iptables just in case although I didn't think it was a
firewall issue and I've got SELinux set to permissive on my Myth box
already. Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be anything helpful in
mythbackend.log even when I run it with verbose and there's nothing
helpful in the mythtranscode.log either.

Thanks,
Richard
