I've finally received the memory I needed to prepare the spare J1900
and have it now configured as mythfrontend to the DVB-C backend that
was freezing on 3.17.3. It's been playing liveTV for hours now and is
still going strong. I'd say the freezes can't be reproduced this way.
The only difference being the disk I/O that is missing on the
front-end.
I will give 3.18 a try on production J1900. Knowing I can go back to
safety in 3.16.7 won't hurt too much of my reputation I hope.
Best regards,
Martin
