Ahhhh! (Light goes on above head).... I've just set this thing up to use mythwelcome and auto startup/shutdown so it's no longer on 24 hours a day. I already have the cron job you speak of but, of course you're right - I set it to run when nothing was likely to be recording... hence now it's not getting run at all...
Mythwelcome allows the box to be on between specific times whether it's recording or not. I'll make sure I give it a 'cron hour'..
Thanks
