upnp calls I think, the mythbackend announces its self via upnp (in
yukki windows and icon appears in my network places)

This is usually handles my the updated mythbackend, it automatically
updated my database when moving from 0.20 to 0.21...  There are
instructions in the UPGRADING file within the extracted sources if your
last release was older than 0.20

Aye, this happens on the old .20 release and the pre-released 0.21 and
now this version.  Its not really a problem just need to tidy up the
core dumps.

How do you find the livetv does yours stutter after some adverts fade to
black ?  I have found the only way to recover is to switch inputs or
come out of livetv then re enter it, a tad annoying. -- It does not
happen on recorded stuff.
