Description
When starting the frontend using alt-m mythfrontend-start never exits. This causes a problem for pause-mythcommflag.sh.
When this command runs:
top -bn1u mythtv | grep mythfrontend | awk '{ print $9 }'
It returns:
13
0
This causes pause-mythcommflag to get confused and hangs and causes other weird problems
Once you kill the "/usr/LH/bin/mythfrontend-start" process all is well.
top -bn1u mythtv | grep mythfrontend | awk '{ print $9 }'
It returns:
13
and all is well.
