[mythtv-users] Frontend services API question

[Phil Bridges]

I'm trying to dabble with the Frontend services API, and it doesn't appear
to being working as I expected.  This morning, I retreived
"mythbackend:6547/Frontend/GetStatus", and it showed me information on the
recording being watched:

<snip>
<String>
<Key>programid</Key>
<Value>3085</Value>
</String>
<String>
<Key>relbehindtime</Key>
<Value/>
</String>
<String>
<Key>reldescription</Key>
<Value>0:22:43 of 1:56:35</Value>
</String>
<String>
<Key>relplayedtime</Key>
<Value>0:22:43</Value>
</String>
<String>
<Key>relposition</Key>
<Value>194</Value>
</String>
</snip>

Now, though, whenever I retrieve the xml document, it still has the same
data (although the frontend is idling on the home page).

Version info:
mythfrontend version: tag: v0.27.4 [e4f65c8] www.mythtv.org

This isn't expected behavior, is it?
