[mythtv] Suppressing debug output in Python bindings

[Robin Gilks]

I have a little script that checks that a DVB card is free before using it
to collect EPG data.

#!/usr/bin/python

import sys
from MythTV import MythTV

if len(sys.argv) < 2:
    print "Usage: myth_recorder_status <RECORDER> [<RECORDER> ...]"
    sys.exit(2)

m = MythTV()
recorders_that_exist = m.getRecorderList()

res = 'FREE'
for recorder in sys.argv[1:]:
    if int(recorder) not in recorders_that_exist:
        print 'NOT VALID RECORDER (%s)' % recorder
        sys.exit(1)
    if m.isRecording(recorder):
        res = 'RECORDING'
print res
sys.exit(0)


Since upgrading to trunk it fails due to verbose output of the following
form...

2010-03-20 16:54:53.333 Python Database Connection: Using connection
settings from /home/mythtv/.mythtv/config.xml

Not very helpful when I'm looking for the script to return 'FREE' or
'RECORDING'.

Any ideas on how to suppress this output anyone?

Cheers
