I'm also occasionally able to hang the frontend in FF/RW/Commercial
Skip/Jump.  When it happends, I have to kill & restart mythfrontend, and
once I identify a spot in a recording where this happens, I can get it to
happen at that spot consistently.  Sometimes (usually?) if I let the
recording play through the offending spot at normal speed it doesn't hang.
I'm going to build for debugging today (with a fresh CVS grab) and see if I
can't get a backtrace this week.
