 - Regarding your question, yes the crash is on the master backend, when I
lift the frontened. it crashes after the flag screen, the the frontend
starts with the menu.

-  Regarding the erratic behaviour. Last night got back late. Mythweb on
tablet was giving me the conection error, and remote frontend was not
conecting. Today wake up, mythweb is working ok, and remote frontend is
working perfect. It's like a service is stuck and taking time to start

Thanks

Doug
