Hi again.

Since I upgradeded recently to latest CVS (first about a week ago and
again tonight) my frontend have exited immediately after on of the
following occurs:

1) I've watched LiveTV and press ESC.
2) I've watched a recording and press ESC.
3) A recording has played all the way through.

It gives me the following output:

You likely won't get any video.

Minor variances in Resource id. I believe the rest is identical

It worked fine with CVS of, of 3 months ago or so.
I tried running it in gdb also, but it didn't seem to get anything
usable out of it. I'm willing to try again with a debug
mythfrontend/backend if that could help.

I'm wondering if this is related to Xinerama in some way. I have not
seen similar problems with a recently setup backend which was done from
scratch (my setup at home have been running since around 0.8 without any
major database surgery). The error doesn't seem to have anything to do
with the database though...

Anyone else having similar problems?
