Stephen,

I can't recreate the above.

If you open a ticket, as David suggests, then please call the endpoint
outside of the MythTV/servcies_api module. As you most likely saw, send()
has six exceptions grouped together:

         exceptions = (requests.exceptions.HTTPError,
                       requests.exceptions.URLRequired,
                       requests.exceptions.Timeout,
                       requests.exceptions.ConnectionError,
                       requests.exceptions.InvalidURL,
                       KeyboardInterrupt)

This would be better: curl localhost:6544/Dvr/GetUpcomingList

Plus, mythbackend --setverbose http:debug,schedule,upnp:debug and attach
the backend log.
