I don't know what that error is - sounds like the socket wasn't completely established before myth tried to use it. I didn't get this problem when I had myth installed on another computer. I'm using the same physical CPU, but I'm not connecting it through my onboard firewire port on my new motherboard rather than the SB audigy firewire port on my old machine. I'm also using a 64 bit kernel rather than 32 from before. I don't know if that has anything to do with it.
