I'd think the main missing one would be using_libdns_sd ? but libcec support would be nice

I built -3 rpms and installed
I built -3 rpms and installed the library in the build environment for libdns_sd. See if they work any better.
Hi Ryan,Appears there been
Hi Ryan,
Appears there been some fixes to the airplay code backported to 0.25-fixes any chance of a new build?
I'm still walking through the dependancy hell of getting my build environment setup :(
Partially working for me
Partially working for me after the -3 upgrade.
I was able to send a Youtube video from an ipad to the front end.
I wasn't able to send photos from the ipad (received some errors about "no session id in http request")
I wasn't able to send music from itunes on a pc (haven't got any music on the ipad). I'm not sure if streaming music from itunes should work yet or not. I have got the RSA key in the correct spot.
I also have the latest xbmc installed and can do all of the above.

I dont think mythtv is yet to
I dont think mythtv is yet to support photos, only video and audio from what everyone's been talking about, might be a better question for the mythtv-users mailing list.
I'm still having issues as its only showing up as audio only even though I have specified the below export in my /usr/share/mythdora/mythfrontend.sh
export MYTHTV_AIRPLAY="1"
Haven't had a chance to play how did you specify this benh?
just typed it into a terminal
just typed it into a terminal and then started the frontend.
I will have to set it somewhere at startup (assuming it only needs to be done once per boot).

Thanks Ryan will give this a
Thanks Ryan will give this a try tonight.
libcec support would be good too also others might want crystalhd support, I'd look to purchase one of the CEC devices if it was enabled.
I'm still trying to build my own build environment however I haven't been able yet to locate librtmp-devel
Also is there likely to be a new mythdora rpm update with the changes to becheck and a working /usr/share/mythdora/mythfrontend.sh
although the RPMFusion-mythfrontend.desktop might fix one problem but auto launch on boot would be nice, I thought I found the issues with the script but still its not working
I'll see about getting an
I'll see about getting an updated mythdora rpm put together. I have yet to upgrade my own machines so I don't have a test base. I'll setup a dummy vm if I have some time and see if I can work out the startup issues.

also a fix for logrotate will
also a fix for logrotate will be required to counter the new logging format :(
From http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Logging I found this
https://github.com/MythTV/packaging/blob/master/Gentoo/media-tv/mythtv/files/logcleanup.py
but maybe a fix exists in the FPMfusion package?

In the other thread on
In the other thread on updating, a poster mentioned to change the log path. This worked on ours and the frontend loads now on bootup, and it does log correctly. Oh and the desktop shortcut loads the frontend correctly as well.
Thanks for that found I had a
Thanks for that found I had a typo in /etc/sysconfig/mythfrontend
FRONTOPTS='--verbose important --logpath /var/log/mythtv/'
Missed the ' at the end Opps it should work now :)
