Compiling backend on Snow Leopard

I have recently done some work on getting the backend to compile and
run on Mac OSX Snow Leopard. I have at least managed to fix or work
around most of the issues that others on the list have encountered and
mythbackend now compiles and starts without crashing. I would be happy
to work with someone to integrate what I've learned into the
distribution, but in order to verify that my backend is actually
working, I'm trying to capture video from my Firewire cable box. I'm
able to capture video with AVCBrowser from the Firewire SDK, but when
I try with mythbackend, I get:

No Input in 1800 msecs
And periodic FireWire bus resets

If anyone who is familiar with darwinfirewiredevice.cpp is willing to
help, I'm quite motivated to fix this problem, and will be happy to
contribute any working fix back so that others will be spared this
same issue.

Thanks!

Brian

Brian,

Have you got the changes you can post online or send to me? I would
like to test with a hdhomerun as the tuner.
