mythtv runs on my desktop-pc, which is in another room and also used
by others for normal work at the same time i like to here music or watch
a movie...
and why not use this feature, when it's available? if it's there, it
should work and it seems to work on other machines, so ignoring it,
because it does not run here is not the right way, i think...
