Are you sure you don't have an old out of date backend running somewhere?

Make sure of the versions of your backend and frontend by running
mythbackend --version or mythfrontend --version or mythutil --version on
your backend and frontend.

I recommend copy the ~/.mythtv/config.xml from a working frontend to
your raspberry pi frontend. Edit it and make sure if it contains entries
for localhost or 127.0.0.1 that you change them to the correct IP address.
