Perhaps, but OTOH 10MB isn't much. It's for a system that uses up to
3-10 Mbit/sec for recording, e.g. 10MB are 10-30 seconds. :)

But yours should be running since october, logrotate should be
rotating it weekly irrespective of the size.



I think not.  There is only one file in /var/log/mythtv

mythbackend.log

The first lines are:
