According to the changelog ( http://www.mysettopbox.tv/CHANGELOG.txt ),
R5A22 is using MythTV 0.18.2svn, which is probably the current SVN
version of 0.18-fixes?
http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/browser/branches/release-0-18-fixes
You'll have to get more info from some KnoppMyth experts, though. If it
is 0.18-fixes, it's expecting DBSchemaVer 1083 and you have 1099.
Between the two have been a lot of changes, including a bunch of
DDL--dropped tables, added tables, and added columns. Therefore, you're
probably better off starting over from your pre-upgrade backup or just
upgrading to current SVN... Most things might work OK with the older
version, but I wouldn't risk it.
If you start over, you can import the new recordings with
myth.rebuilddatabase.pl.
