[mythtv-users] 0.19: possible MythMusic LCD bug - music left visible after exit

   This may actually be particular to my settings, as it's a fairly glaring 
issue that I'd have expected any MythMusic+LCD users to have seen already, but 
I've had a rummage through the code and it does look like an omission.

   With 0.19's spanky new lcdproc support, I thought I'd turn it on (in 
parallel with the home-brew script I already have running).  I just turned on 
'music' and 'menu' in the front-end, and all seemed to be working swimmingly: 
  I started mythmusic and got the current track up OK.

   However, when I left mythmusic to go back to the main menu, the mythmusic 
LCD display stayed visible, frozen at the point the music was at when I stopped it

   I can't see anything in the code that either times out the music display or 
drops it back to low priority (or off) when mythmusic is exited (it merely 
does a 'display time';  I'm not displaying time via myth, but even if I was, 
wouldn't this just mean the music screen'd cycle round again?).

   Is this a genuine fault or have I got some setting wrong?
