Description
Using SVN Revision: 9448
LiveTV on backend machine works fine.
Remote frontend LiveTV fails to load and produces a black screen only.
Mythfrontend log has lots of this:
2006-03-21 16:37:02.945 NVP: Waiting for prebuffer.. 0 AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
2006-03-21 16:37:02.996 Ignoring livetv eof in decoder loop
2006-03-21 16:37:03.052 Ignoring livetv eof in decoder loop
...
2006-03-21 16:37:04.344 NVP: Prebuffer wait timed out 10 times
...
There seems to be some similarities in the log to this ticket:
http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/1340[[BR]]
...but svn up'ing hasn't fixed it.
'mythfrontend -v playback' log from frontend attached.

I think I've sorted this out.
I had my recordings directory (local on my backend machine) shared via samba, and mounted on my frontend using the same name (/mnt/store) as I use for my recording prefix on the backend.
Apparently that messes with the remote frontend's ability to view livetv. It also causes playback of recordings-in-progress to stop at the endpoint of the show from the time it was opened for playback, rather than continuing on until the recording ends.
Unmounting the share from my frontend solved both problems.
I don't know enough to say if that's a bug or a feature, so I'm invalidating this bug.
