[mythtv-users] AFD Errors, mythbackend doesn't respond anymore

[Steve Malenfant]

I'm trying to recompile from SVN right now, there was a fix added that
could help that situation.

The latest atrpms build doesn't seem to include that fix :
http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/1568

Somebody else reported the problem, but was closed due to invalid log
I guess (that's weird)
http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/1644

Would be nice to just have a new ATRPMS build to include that.  Not
sure how we request that.
