<DIV><BR></DIV></DIV>I think you're right, this is most likely a bug in
mythbackend. I actually tried to fix the problem you are talking about
in 0.18 when I changed the code on my machine to avoid shutdown when there
were user jobs pending but I didn't spend enough time to do it right.
Maybe I'll take another crack at it and see if I can't get a patch included in
0.20.<BR></BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML>
