[mythtv-users] New setup: Frontend won't play recorded programs

[Steve Malenfant]

Installing libfaad2-devel did put the /usr/lib/libfaad.so in place... I
wonder if it is a problem with the libfaad2 RPM.

Before libfaad2-devel :
[root at STEVE-E4300 movies]# locate libfaa
/usr/lib/libfaad.so.2
/usr/lib/libfaad.so.2.0.0

After :
[root at STEVE-E4300 movies]# updatedb
[root at STEVE-E4300 movies]# locate libfaa
/usr/lib/libfaad.so
/usr/lib/libfaad.so.2
/usr/lib/libfaad.so.2.0.0

[root at STEVE-E4300 movies]# ls -l /usr/lib/libfaad.so*
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root     16 2010-04-10 22:13 /usr/lib/libfaad.so ->
libfaad.so.2.0.0
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root     16 2010-03-28 23:01 /usr/lib/libfaad.so.2 ->
libfaad.so.2.0.0
-rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 262144 2009-03-26 15:25 /usr/lib/libfaad.so.2.0.0
