[mythtv] [mythtv-commits] Ticket #6192: Long delays processing events

[Eric Bosch]

Thanks for your response, Bruce.  I've really been pulling my hair out. 
  Funny thing is, about 2 hours ago, my Cable box (Motorola 6200) went 
dead, and I could not get it to power back on.  I disconnected it for a 
period of time, and reconnected it, at which time I finally got it to 
start back up.  Lo and behold, things seem to be running better now. 
I've not had another instance of the long strings of ASK_RECORDING at 
all today, although sometimes paging through the program guide has been 
a bit sluggish.  I'll just keep watching it to see if it happens again.
