On mythbuntu, my back-end crashed unexpectedly, causing me to lose about
a day and a half of recording.
I put the following in /etc/cron.hourly/mythrestart
----mythrestart begin----
#!/bin/bash
PID=`pgrep mythbackend`
if [ "${PID}x" == "x" ]; then
/etc/init.d/mythtv-backend stop
/etc/init.d/mythtv-backend start
fi
----mythrestart end----
Then do the following:
sudo chown root.root /etc/cron.hourly/mythrestart
sudo chmod 755 /etc/cron.hourly/mythrestart
So at most now I should only lose an hour of recorded TV instead of
potentially days.
