I have patched libcmyth to get livetv from a mythtv backend in xbmc. I need to test a few things but so far so good. Can someone advise how to post the patch?
Thanks

Thanks, just posted the patch.
1. livetv fails because an already locked thread is locked again. Just recoding to avoid that removes the problem.
2. livetv can fail because the initial entry created in tvchain can have a DUMMY cardid and a bogus. Within a few seconds (<10), the correct cardid entry and file name are created. I had the same problem with mythroku. The solution is to query the database to check when the last entry added is no longer dummy, then the file name is correct and livetv works.
Livetv works within the myth protocol and through xmythbox.

Is it possible to apply this patch currently? Or is there a build that includes it?
