I updated mythtv to today's cvs and installed dsmyth 0.6.2 on my
laptop after uninstalling 0.6.1 and rebooting.  My laptop is running
winxp sp1.  When clicking on a recording in mythweb with it configured
to use myth:// links I get windows media player opened but nothing
ever appears and it eventually times out with an error.

The backend log shows this:

2004-05-16 17:08:16 WriteBlock(): Aborting WriteBlock, write to socket failed!

The last line repeats over and over until the player times out.

Any ideas why I get this write to socket error?

Thanks,
