If so, the mythbackend startup script recently changed to start mythbackend as user "myth" instead of user "root". This was the root cause of my problems (don't mind the pun).
<br><br>if you are running gentoo, verify this by editing /etc/conf.d/mythbackend to turn all logging on. You will see some permission errors on the v4l devices. If that's the case, edit /etc/init.d/mythbackend back to using root. I'm sure there is a good way to allow it to use the user account, but I haven't figured it out, yet.
