Hi,
I'm glad S3 aspect pops-up as I want to add another aspect relevant to
S3: sleep-resume on fe side.
Currently, basing on BE logs, I get impression BE threats frontend sent
to S3 as fe which lost connection to BE.
I'm not verified it, but in past, long enough sleep period caused also
lost of comm. mechanism on BE->FE direction.
Functional result was that i.e. any change done on EPG wasn't reflected
on EPG on such FE.
I overcome this in my system by exiting mythfrontend process before
sleep and launching it just after resume.
This adds 7-10 seconds more on FE resume phase and compared to 2-3 sec
of OS resume is perceived as quite long period of black screen.
No big problem but if we are talking about new features - enhancements
related to S3 support in myth should also cover aspect of multiple fe
running in S3 sleep-resume regime.
