When I added the redirection stuff I added a lot of calls to LOG()...

At this point my strong recommendation would be to use vlc together
with the mythexternrecorder stuff, vlc is basically always going to
have superior compatibility with the various types of stream out there.

I've been running that way since last year and I'm very happy.
