I am getting this when playing a particular recorded show, at about the

(this seems to happen most of the time on any show I have recorded) but
then it faults and mythfrontend just disappears.

Might want to try a build from svn first to make sure it is not already
fixed. I remember a bug report that was fixed at the end of last month....
Found it http://mythtv.org/pipermail/mythtv-commits/2005-June/006368.html
This person had a "slightly defective recording" that would also crash
mythfrontend.
Thanks to both of you for the input. Right now, my system is built
from rpm, so recompiling isn't easy. However, I have been thinking for
a while that I need to set up a development area where I can compile the
later versions. This may be the prod I need to get it done. :-) That
bug does sound very similar to what I experienced.
One other thing, I just realised might be causing it, is that I just
purchased a new 250 GB drive and replaced my older one that I was using
for myth recording. I formatted the new one with XFS, and now I read
about a few problems with XFS in the archives. I don't recall any
problems before changing to XFS. Also I found another recording that
is causing mythfrontend to crash. That's 2 too many :-). So I just
reformatted the HD back to ext3 to see if it makes any difference.
If the problems continue I will try to compile a later version.
