Is this really the case? I haven't noticed any heat issues relating to leaving
my cards running all the time..  I would almost rather take it away as an
option and let myth put the frontend to sleep when it determines it doesn't
need to use the card..

Is it the demods that run hot, or the transport chip, or both?  Also what
card(s) are you using?
