[mythtv-users] mythstream won't stream

[David Whyte]

What media player are you using to view the stream?

It definately looks like there is a problem with the script trying to
kill the old vlc process, but the stream is there, and it appears to
be recieving a request from a viewer to attach to the stream.

I have no idea why kill wouldn't work, I wonder if there are some
differences between FC2 which I am on and Gentoo :|
