 MythFrontend will crash if you do the following:

 1. Open MythVideo
 2. Choose to download metadata
 3. Leave MythVideo before metadata download is complete

 Several things happen here:

 When you choose to download metadata, a progress bar shows up (more like a
 wait timer because the bar just bounces back and fourth).

 Then a dialoge will pop up asking you to select the correct title (if it
 cant differentiate).

 You choose the correct title but no progress bar shows up to let you know
 the script is still running (if you check the terminal, you can see the
 output). After the script finishes, the album cover appears and you know
 the script is done.

 The user can still exit mythvideo while the progress bar is showing which
 will also produce a segfault.

 I believe mythvideo should block all actions while the script is running
 which will stop this behavior.
