 I have two seperate machines one frontend and one backend. I try and
 connect from the frontend using live tv and get errors:

 RingBuf(/myth/tv/1118_20060506065049.mpg):
 OpenFile(/myth/tv/1118_20060506065049.mpg, 12)
 2006-05-06 06:50:49.716 Could not open /myth/tv/1118_20060506065049.mpg.
 12 retries remaining.
 2006-05-06 06:50:56.577 TV Error: LiveTV not successfully started
 Destroying SipFsm object

 I have enabled nfs on the backend machine and have verified I can connect
 from the frontend to the backend. I am also able to browse the program
 listings from the frontend and also I am able to even schedule recordings
 and they work fine. I am using knoppmyth version R5B7 and here are all
 they key info on that build:

 The hardware in the backend machine is as follows:
 ATI 128mb AGP
 Hauppage Wintv PVR 250
 Abit BP6 motherboard with dual celeron 400Mhz
 20 gig maxtor hard drive
 256mb ram
 3com 905B 10/100 NIC
 Ir blaster from myblaster.info

 The hardware in the frontend machine is as follows:
 800Mhz AMD duron
 MSI KT4V motherboard
 Gforce 128MB fx5200
 1GB DDR PC2700 ram
 Creative soundblaster live 5.1
 Western Digtial 6gig hard drive.
 3com 905B 10/100 NIC

 Both machines are using the same versions of software (mythtv etc) I have
 not upgraded any versions of myth or anything else. Here are the versions
 from the dmesg output of the backend machine:

 CPU1: Intel Celeron (Mendocino) stepping 05
 Total of 2 processors activated (1604.37 BogoMIPS).
 Linux version 2.6.15-chw-2 (root at dev.mysettopbox.tv) (gcc version 3.3.5
 (De
 bian 1:3.3.5-12)) #1 SMP PREEMPT Thu Jan 5 08:10:40 UTC 2006
 ivtv0: loaded v4l-cx2341x-enc.fw firmware (262144 bytes)
 ivtv0: Autodetected WinTV PVR 250 card (cx23416 based)
 ivtv:  version 0.4.3 (tagged release) loading

 I have attached the output from running mythbackend with the important
 verbose mode
 /usr/bin/mythbackend -v important

 and

 running the frontend using the same parameters:

 /usr/bin/mythfrontend -v important
