 The backend doesn't crash, though.

 Hopefully, we'll get more detailed logs

 Yes, the UPNP clients are fine accessing a Linux-based mythbackend.  Most
 of the UPNP clients can browse the share, but accessing for the most part
 either does not return video, or crashes the backend. In a few cases, I
 have had video start to playback, but usually after a backend crash.

 I will attach the log file with elevated logging.  I couldn't see anything
 useful in the log though... any other logging thoughts?
