Mythdroid fails to connect to MDD on my backend

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Which version of MythDroid were you using?
0.5.1

Which version of MDD?
0.5.1

Which version of MythTV were you using? (e.g. mythfrontend --version)
mythbackend --0.24

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Installed MDD on my backend 
2. Try using mythdroid to schedule a recording

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expect to schedule a recording - get the following error:

Failed to connect to MDD on 192.168.x.x (which is the IP of the backend)

Please provide any additional information below.

As far as I can tell the MDD install went fine - I did not receive any errors.

Other remote control functions work properly playback on the frontend etc.

I can connect but not on port 16546. To stream video for example.

The MythTV configuration data in /root/.mythtv is incomplete or incorrect. 
Either fix that (perhaps by running mythfrontend or mythtv-setup as root once) 
or run mdd as a user that has a complete / correct mythtv configuration.
