Hi,

I have just one unresolved issue with the mythtv box: when the computer is automatically started (e.g. through nvram-wakeup) , I would like it to keep from starting the fronted so that the backend will shut the bow down again after the recording is completed.

For this, I use the following startupCommand:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ cat /usr/local/bin/mythguictrl
#!/usr/bin/perl

use warnings;
use strict;

package main;


my $lockfile ='/home/mythtv/.mythguilock';

-e $lockfile and unlink $lockfile;

if( $ARGV[0] and ( $ARGV[0] eq "auto") ){

        open LOCK,'>',$lockfile;
        print LOCK "1";
        close LOCK;

}

This script  works as  expected:

 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ /usr/local/bin/mythguictrl auto
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ ls -al /home/mythtv/.mythguilock
-rw-r--r--  1 mythtv users 1 Jul 10 13:19 /home/mythtv/.mythguilock
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ /usr/local/bin/mythguictrl user
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ ls -al /home/mythtv/.mythguilock
ls: /home/mythtv/.mythguilock: No such file or directory

I've set this up in the database:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ echo "SELECT * FROM settings WHERE value = 'startupCommand';" |mysql -umythtv -p mythconverg
Enter password:
value   data    hostname
startupCommand  /usr/local/bin/mythguictrl $status      NULL

However, when MythTV starts up automatically, the lockfile is not created.
Does anyone know how to resolve this? I think it worked in 0.17, but I have reinstalled everything since then due to a
meltdown.

/Fredrik
