Nope, that's good.  Only real error there, amid all the type mismatch 
complaints, is a missing iostream include, and someone compiling on Suse just 
reported that earlier today.  Not sure what pulls it in on my box, but 
something obviously does.

If it's still happening, try adding this line to libmythtv/recordinginfo.cpp, 
before line 43 (the free(convtime)): 

    printf("%s\n", asctime(convtime));

and this line to mythfrontend/main.cpp, line 76, after the sprintf:

    printf("%s\n", endt);

That'll print out two lines whenever it starts recording something.  They 
_should_ show the same time (second will print out 
year/month/day/hour/minute, with no delimiters between fields, the first will 
be more readable.)  If they don't, well, that's the bug =)

Yeah, it's desired behavior, at least for me.  I'm using the interface with a 
remote, so I don't want the mouse pointer showing up and interrupting things.  
Should be quite easy to make it configurable at the same time I make the 
mysql server stuff configurable as well.
