auto discovery, according to the release notes[1]: "Added auto discovery of MythTV servers/frontends" Perhaps upnp, as Craig suggested? > On another machine, where I have a MySQL server with an old version of > the mythconverg database, I can't start it: it connects to the > database, finds that it's the wrong version, and stops again.

MythTV (mythfrontend) will always try to connect to a local configuration db first time[2]: "When you start mythfrontend for the first time, it will attempt to connect to a configuration database on the local machine." Personally, I would prefer that it was possible to somehow disable this behaviour.
