Quick Hack to update to current protocol version. Edit (2.9 KiB, text/plain)

I put together a quick hack to update to the current protocol version however this breaks all previous protocol implementations.

But this will at least give a hint at what needs to be changed.

This is amazingly poor behavior from the upstream MythTV. They've not started arbitrarily rearranging their fields as well. This is seriously disappointing, since making tools work with earlier versions means they have to hold all the historical mappings of fields to versions. This will take a little while to fix correctly in MythTVfs...
