Since mythtranscode and mythcommflag are run using a system() call inside mythbackend, if you restart mythbackend, then mythcommflag and mythtranscode will die as you noticed. These programs are run via Myth's JobQueue. When you startup mythbackend, the JobQueue runs a RecoverQueue() method which looks for any unfinished jobs that were running on the backend when it was stopped. These jobs are requeued and should be restarted when the JobQueue starts running jobs again. > Same for if mythfilldatabase is running? Not 100% sure about this so I'll let others answer. -- Chris
