------------------------------------+--------------------------
 If you go into a cycle of watching tv, then going back to the menu, the
 frontend eventually crashes due to all available file handles being used.

 Each time this happens about 3 or 4 pipes do not get shut leading to the
 crash.

 I also assume that since this is C++, that there is also a memory leak
 here somewhere.

 This has been happening for months, if not years.
