I see this error when I use my iPad TiVo app - the error comes simultaneously from all TiVo devices on my lan.

The traffic appears to be "private" traffic between related devices that do not follow the mdns spec - (Multicast DNS Responses MUST NOT contain any questions in the Question Section. Any questions in the Question Section of a received Multicast DNS Response MUST be silently ignored.)

But to honor the spec Avahi should silently ignore the traffic.

IMHO, the error should not be logged.
