MyMote seems to lock to a Frontend and won't switch

[glenhawk]

I have finally gotten MyMote working with my mythtv system.
The final hurdle was putting the IPs and Hostnames of the frontend systems in the /etc/hosts file.
MyMote works perfectly as long as you are connected to one frontend.
When I try to switch to another frontend...
Settings -> Frontend -> Lounge
The menu continues to say Frontend: Server and continues to control the server frontend.
If I close the server frontend I am then able to select the Lounge frontend and control it but in settings it still says "Frontend: Server"
After trying to switch back to the server frontend a couple of times the settings then said "Frontend: Lounge"
And then when I rebooted the iPhone MyMote automatically connect to the server frontend and, you guessed it, would not allow me to switch to the lounge frontend.

Any ideas?

Running Mythbuntu 10.04, MythTV 0.23

I have the same issue. It takes a large number of tries to get MyMote to switch frontends. Let me know if you need any help debugging this.

Hi David,

Thanks for confirming the bug. Unfortunately, I don't have the time to focus on MyMote myself right now. However, it is open source and someone with OS X could probably debug this using X Code and an iPhone simulator. I would gladly accept patches or bzr merge requests.

Thanks

David's changes work for me :). I will build a new release for the app store.

I've uploaded version 1.1.6 to iTunes connect. It is waiting for review, which usually takes a few days to two weeks.

Thanks for the quick action! I look forward to seeing the update.

David.

1.1.6 is now available in the App Store.
