Missing 0.27 version

No 0.27 build has succeeded yet. The 0.27 in the files section was probably just a failure of the build script to check/change the version checked out in the git folder after I attempted 0.27
I've just tested the actual 0.27 version. (32bit version on a 64bit Win 8.1)
There's a problem for me running this version on a backend 0.27.
The version conflict shows 1317 (db) vs 1299 (Windows frontend).
Does the build script for the 64bit version complete succesfully?
The version built is the latest according to git, it is most likely a problem with your backend. Perhaps it is running master?
Better to ask on the mailing list on this one since I don't know the protocol versions.
There is no 64bit patch for 0.27, and my compiler for it is a bit broken.
I've been having issues with viewing recorded videos and live TV.
The frontend connects to the backend just fine, but when it loads a video or shows video from the tuner the frontend crashes. I don't know if it's a dll or video card issue. I have an AMD Phenon II X6 and Geforce 440GT video card. I've tried to get a debug log but I don't think I'm doing the command right. If you could give me the command you need for debugging I'll run it and post it here.
I've been trying to get a .27 build going for a while so I appreciate your efforts!
I believe 0.26 was/is the same with this crash; have a look on davco's site and I think I saw a notice about it.
Post your log anyway (new ticket) and once I've fixed the issues with mythbuild.sh I will post a new version that I know has all the patches (human error means they may not all have applied), and I can look into a full debug build.
http://sourceforge.net/projects/mythtvwindows/files/unstable/v0.27-41-g1224f05/mythtv-v0.27-41-g1224f05-w32-debug.tar.bz2/download
this build should work with gdb to provide a more useful diagnosis (WARNING, ~150mb file)
if it doesnt crash it was likely that a patch was not applied that caused it to crash for you.
Strangely, this build correctly informs me that my backend is too old, whereas the other one just tried to connect to a backend on localhost when it got sql errors (caused by the old schema I assumed)
I don't know how to set logging on gdb, but it did tell me that libmythavcodec-54.dll was the culprit that was crashing the frontend. I replaced the .dll with one from one of my failed builds and I could get live TV and recorded programs to play, but it was very unstable and would crash. Hopefully there's a current patch for this one.
well that indicates an ffmpeg crash, if you can get a backtrace it would be helpful, so we can at least find where in that module the crash is.
as for logging, I believe you can run gdb like 'gdb mythfrontend.exe' then use 'r <your command line>' to start it running.
Some details on your build might also help (configure options, cflags, compiler, etc)

I've started a new ticket with the debug info.
The dll I had that worked with your build I used MinGW 20100426 build (no modifications to the script, patches that it makes to flash.h fail, so I let it go) on the mythbuild.sh script at their repository.
