Comment(by danielk):

 There is no guarantee that 7191-gen2-v1.patch won't do terrible things to
 your computer. This is an updated to trunk version of a patch I last
 tested two weeks ago and lightly at that.

 What it does is get rid of the extra connections to the backend to
 initiate preview generation and uses an asynchronous protocol instead.

 There are known problems with this patch: 1st, it breaks all use of the
 preview generator other than standard preview generation. 2nd, if two
 frontends request the same preview, these requests are not combined. 3rd,
 new previews are broadcast to all MythEvent listeners, not just those who
 have requested the preview.
