[mythtv-users] Missing recording after .19 upgrade

Paul,

Thanks for the suggestion.

Turns out that it was my external channel change script that was causing 
the problem. For some reason it was exiting with exit code 9 and not 
exit code 0.

Mythtv .19 must be more picky about this script completing cleanly. An 
"exit 0" on the end of the script solved my problem.

Many thanks,

Matt
