I'm having some issues for sometime but I haven't had the time to do
anything about it and it was annoying enough but it's starting to bug me
more and especially my wife.  I am running mythbuntu with .27 fixes and
running which is running in a KVM vm.  All of my tuners are HDhomerun
tuners, a mix of prime tuners and OTA tuners, 2 of each for 10 sessions.

What I have been seeing for sometime is that the backend just stops
responding, mythbackend.log stops and here is the latest entry:

Feb 26 04:28:43 mythtv mythbackend: mythbackend[5505]: I Scheduler
scheduler.cpp:2139 (HandleReschedule) Reschedule requested for CHECK 0 128

tv_rec.cpp:3604 (TuningCheckForHWChange) TVRec[1]: HW Tuner: 1->1


This time it locked up when going from watching recordings to LiveTV, and
my frontends are kodi devices, not sure if that makes any difference.

It's still in broken mode at the moment, if anyone has some debug tips of
what and where to look.  If I restart mythbackend it will restart and go on
its merry way until it stops at some point, could be days or weeks, not
really clear at this point, seems random.

I could create a cronjob to run every so many minutes and verify but that
just seems crude but with the way it is now, probably something I am going
to need to do.

Thanks in advance :)
