I've just compiled the 0.16 release and all seemed to be working fine.
But if I try and play any recordings (that all have previously played)
or watch live tv, mythfrontend crashes with a Segfault. I'm using the
cle266 hardware decoding on an ME6000 board. The mpeg2 decoding was
working fine with 0.15.

Here are mythfrontend's last words:

After mythfrontend crashes X does so as well (but that seems to just
be a by product of mythfrontend, not a problem with X).
