[mythtv] Slave backend problems with livetv

Hi!

I posted this on the users list earlier but i was thinking that if scheduled
recordings work and not livetv it may be a bug.

First this is what my setup looks like.

Primary backend (pvr)
One pvr-350 and one pvr-250

Slave backend (pvr2)
One DVB-C

I am using the cvs from today but i have had this problem for a couple of
weeks.

After starting both backends this is what the master backend status looks
like

Encoder status
Encoder 1 is remote on pvr2 and is recording.
Encoder 2 is local on pvr and is not recording.
Encoder 3 is local on pvr and is not recording.

And this is the slave backend
Encoder status
Encoder 1 is local on pvr2 and is not recording.

When i try to watch livetv on a dvb channel this is what i get in the
masterbackand debug log.

2004-03-09 15:44:54 Getting next free recorder : -1
2004-03-09 15:44:54 33      QUERY_REMOTEENCODER 1[]:[]IS_BUSY

And this is one the slavebackend.

The livetv sessions never change to a dvb channel.

Scheduling a recording from a dvb channel works but the statuspage show
incorrect information.

This is on the slavebackend and it is correct.
Encoder status
Encoder 1 is local on pvr2 and is recording 'Asia Today'. This recording
will end at 4:00 PM.

This is on the masterbackend and is obviously wrong.
Encoder status
Encoder 1 is remote on pvr2 and is recording.
Encoder 2 is local on pvr and is not recording.
Encoder 3 is local on pvr and is not recording.

If i use the frontend on the masterbackend i can watch this recording.

If i switch the master and slave backend by changing the ip in the settings
table the problem
gets reversed and i can only watch dvb channels, but if i start the slave
backend and start
livetv on a non dvb channel it will tune to that but it wont be able to
change to dvb channels.

Suggestions on how to fix this are welcome.
