Description
My setup is a backend, fc17 with 0.25/fixes with HDHR Prime (3 tuners). Remote Frontend is ubuntu 12.04, running v0.25.1-56-g11d7795 on an intel mac mini.
When I start LiveTV, it stops after a few mins ranging from 5 mins to 15 mins, I get the message "max buffering...", mythfrontend usually crashes afterwards or is stuck. Then I have to restart the frontend. This occurs on any channel.
I have attached a log from the backend and frontend. Issue occurs at 2012-07-05 14:03 in the logfiles.
Please let me know what else I can provide or try. I am willing to help out.

Another frontend log. This one I tuned to one channel until the error occurred.

mythfrontend segfaults, version v0.25.1-56-g11d7795

This was caused by the HDHR Prime dropping off the network for a few secs during recordings. The workaround is to keep on pinging the HDHR Prime. I have a bug opened with silicon dust. Still mythfrontend should never segfault, but neither should the HDHR drop off the network. Also see bug 10414 where I found the workaround of pinging the HDHR Prime.
