This has all happened since I did a fresh install on both frontend and backend machines to version R5B7 this never happened on the previous version. I can also connect using program finder and also schedule recordings on the backend but nothing. Anyone have a fix for this?
Update: I have also ran the mythbackend -v important while connecting from the frontend and here is the output from that:

All looks well there.
The funny part is when I try a frontend only install from knoppmyth none of this happens Livetv works perfect and so does everything else.
