I am getting EventCmdRecFinished calls to my Python program correctly
in v29:

MariaDB [mythconverg]> select * from settings where value like
'EventCmdRecF%';
+---------------------+------------------------------------------+----------+
| value               | data                                     | hostname |
+---------------------+------------------------------------------+----------+
| EventCmdRecFinished | /usr/local/bin/mythsgu event RecFinished | mypvr    |
+---------------------+------------------------------------------+----------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

Mar 15 22:39:00 mypvr mythbackend: mythbackend[31016]: I CoreContext
mythsystemevent.cpp:308 (customEvent) MythSystemEventHandler: Starting
thread for command '/usr/local/bin/mythsgu event RecFinished'
Mar 15 22:39:00 mypvr mythbackend: mythbackend[31016]: W SystemEvent
mythsystemevent.cpp:55 (run) MythSystemEventHandler: Finished
'/usr/local/bin/mythsgu event RecFinished' result 126

Are the permissions right on /12TB/mythtv/mythlink.sh?
