Thanks for the tips Doug.  I verified that the latest version of Miro runs
fine.  I recall when I first launched Miro after the upgrade to 4.0.3 that
it asked to upgrade the current Miro database, which I let it do.  I then
saw that downloading videos was fine within the interface.  After running
Miro itself again today and then closing, I tried running mirobridge again
and got the same error message:

eric at mythtvback:~$

eric at mythtvback:~$

I was curious to see if simply replacing the mirobridge files with the
latest version of mirobridge available at the mythtv github repo would
solve the problem.  So I made a backup of my current mirobridge directory,
and replaced it with the mirobridge directory from the latest mythtv
source.  Unfortunately it still did not work, and I got the following error:

eric at mythtvback:~$ sudo rm -r
/usr/share/doc/mythtv-backend/contrib/imports/mirobridge
eric at mythtvback:~$ sudo cp -r
/media/dlink_dns323_volume_1/media/mirobridge_latest_version/mirobridge/
/usr/share/doc/mythtv-backend/contrib/imports/.
eric at mythtvback:~$
/usr/share/doc/mythtv-backend/contrib/imports/mirobridge/mirobridge.py -Vt
2012-01-01 21:56:04,402 - mirobridge - INFO - Using python library
'pyparsing' version 1.5.2
2012-01-01 21:56:04,421 - mirobridge - CRITICAL - MythTV python bindings
could not be imported, error(No module named database)

So it sounds like I can't upgrade the version of mirobridge without first
upgrading MythTV to at least version 0.24?  Or is there another way to
update mirobridge itself and still maintain my current version of mythtv?
