now in mythweb I click on recorded programs and have tried this serveral
times, each time it takes almost 20 minutes before the page displays.
looking in the backend log I get this error for each missing thumbnailed
file

when it finishes with the last file it will load the next page. All the
files have the same ownership and the same write permissions, and are in the
same folder. I have only one backend, and on my local and remote frontends
each of these files will play, and work fine, looking through previously
people with problems with mythweb thumbnails before I have performed

# mysqlcheck -r -u mythtv -pmythtv mythconverg

and once that completed

# mythcommflag --rebuild --all

# mythcommflag --hogcpu --all

then relaunched mythweb and recorded programs with no change. the 43 I have
thumbnails for will have thier thumbnails replaced if I delete them, but the
ones that dont have ones now wont recreate them, I guess from the logs it
might be a database listing that expanded with .19 that wasnt there before

Thanks again
Jack
