Post subject:  MythArchive Segmentation Fault

Hello I upgraded to R5F27 a few weeks ago and after a few hang ups all is back to normal.

Today I went to use MythArchive to create some DVDs and it didn't work. In the logs and on the status screen it stays:

ERROR: Failed while running mytharchivehelper to get stream information from "/myth/tv/1054_20070929235900.mpg"

This happened no matter what type of video file I was trying to archive. When I go and run mytharchivehelper from console no matter what it does it always ends with a segmentation fault, even if I am just printing the help information.

Mytharchivehelper appears to be working, it prints out to files and can look up information, but it always ends with a segmentation fault. I have tried messing with permissions, ownership, different users, double checked the configuration information in the database. Nothing works. Any help would be appreciated. This is one of those cool features that gives me bragging rights around Tivo users.

Post subject:  Maybe trick it?

Well, I guess I am the only one who has a bad mytharchivehelper install. It seems to basically function besides throwing the segmentation fault error at the end. Is there a way I can shield this error from mytharchive and instead give it an all OK?

Could a shell script do this, or a perl script? Make something simple to pass the arguments back and forth without the error?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

About the only issue I've had with MythArchive is that somethings it doesn't eject. In addition, it will state a DVD will be less than what it actually turns out to be. Those times, it won't burn the ISO because it won't fix on the DVD.
