[mythtv-users] new mac remote frontend

[Tim Litwiller]

I can watch live tv onthis new frontend but I get this when I try to watch a
recording
this is starting mythfronted with -v error  is there a better logging level
for diagnosing this I tried with -v all but there where to many line
constantly scrolling to be able to find the errors.

the server is mythdora - upgraded to the .21 rpms from atrpms and it is
working great  - better that .20 ever worked for me.

here are the lines from the log with -v error

On my other mac I am using the exact same settings, the same version of the
binary. and it is working - could something be blocking this frontend?

so I am open to any leads that will help figure this out
Googleing only found me items that seem to indicate that the time not
matching might be the cause  - so I synced both machines time to the same
ntp server  It seems to go back to the recoding screen faster now than
before.
