Comment(by james.george@…):

 Ok, I've just done some further testing and I've uncovered two things.

 Firstly, I should be wearing the dunce hat, UPNP clients '''do not''' make
 the back end crash.  The failures with the UPNP clients was due to the
 migration of my mythbackend from Mythbuntu to OS X macports - the hostname
 in the RECORDED table was incorrect - this caused issues with MythWeb
 (which I've got working BTW!) thumbnail generation.  Once fixed, not only
 was MythWeb happier, but the issues with the UPNP clients went away too.

 Secondly, I definitely am seeing repeatable crashes with the mythbackend,
 but it is with Torc, which is not using UPNP, but rather the web service
 interface (i.e. check out notes on http://fecitfacta.com/blog1/torc/ and
 http://server:6544).  Accessing these via macports mythbackend seems to
 work fine, but starting Torc, or making Torc refresh, crashes the backend.
 Torc still works with the backend once it restarts, but I don't see
 thumbnails etc.

 The original premise for this ticket (UPNP crashes) isn't valid, so
 whether you would prefer to close this ticket and open another one
 specifically for Torc/Webservices, I'll leave up to you.

 Cheers!
