Oh yes. The issue is most certainly in the frontend.

I have a patch that causes a new program every minute.

And that's how I test live tv: much easier than having to wait for a new
program to arrive.

I'm sure it's a silly issue. But I can't think of it right now. I've fixed
a lot of similar issues that were occurrig earlier.

I may have missed one

This branch is non destructive. It is fully forward/backward compatible
with a standard 0.27 branch.

Using Ubuntu is the easiest, because I've built the packages already
You can easily revert to the previous version at anytime.

I'm starting a job tomorrow. And my availability to myth will drop close to
zero for a while.
So the sooner it is identified, the more likely it will be fixed
