When I build a Combo FE/BE using a Raspberry Pi 4 4GB I use the mythtv-light package PPA and the helper scripts from MikeB https://github.com/MikeB2013/pi-utils
When that is done I notice that I have version v31.0-59.
I know that the x86_64 version is v31.0-122 or later. Is there any reason for me to not build from source so my RPI version is not at that level?

Over the past few days when I install MythTV on my RPi4 4GB using the https://github.com/MikeB2013/pi-utils scripts, the mythtv-light package is older than yours. Mine says version 31.0-54-g445cf1fe6b-0, not v31.0-59.
very likely a typo. I can't check now because I have repurposed all my Raspberry Pis for other jobs. I don't use the RPI 4 for MythTV except in my RV when traveling and that's not possible right now due to the quarantine. So I'm just using my production MythTV backend with Nvidia Shield TV and FireTV 4K stick for our entertainment. For me there we be no MythTV experimenting until V32 is out or something breaks. I'm doing a lot of micro-controller stuff right now; circuitpython, Arduino, etc.
The latest version on bintray is v31.0-54-g445cf1fe6b-0. The latest version of v31 source is v31.0-130-g016630a35c. However the changes between 54 and 130 are almost all if not all unrelated to raspberry pi support, so I have not built a newer raspberry pi version on bintray.
Thanks for the info. I will continue to test with the current package. Also thank you Peter for your efforts to improve MythTV and get it to work on Raspberry Pi and Android.
Based on the naming of the current packages, such as mythfrontend-20210221-arm64-v31.0-138-g525e3b0bb4.apk, I assume that these were built prior to the above mentioned Closed Caption improvements.
Would it be possible to get updated mythtv-light / mythtfrontend v31 packages for Raspberry Pi / Android?
I have now deleted it from bintray to avoid confusion. The new download site has had mythtv-light_31.0-138-g525e3b0bb4-0_armhf_buster.deb since February 23rd.
Awesome! I have installed this updated mythfrontend on Raspberry Pi 4 4GB and 2017 NVidia Shield and my first impressions are it works well. Thank you very much Peter.
