> Hi all.<br>><br>> I've got mythtv starting up automatically upon boot (by running<br>> mythfrontend in user mythtv's .xsession). No problem there.<br>><br>> But when my wife/kids exit from the top menu by mistake (one too many
<br>> exit button presses) they're left at the befuddling command prompt.<br><br>You can have MythTV prompt you when you exit.<br>"Are you sure you want to exit?"<br>The default is NO and will send you back to the main menu.
</blockquote><div><br>I found the same annoyance --- it'd always hit the equivalent of ESC on my remote a bunch of times to get to the main menu, hit it too many times and get dumped to the "do you want to quit" screen.
<br><br>THEN --- i discovered in the prefs there's an option for what key lets you quit. By default it's ESC -- a bit dangerous for my taste. I changed it to <shift>-ESC and no more problems. Perfect. You can't do it unless you use the keyboard.
<br><br>If it was up to me i'd change the ESC quit default --- for most people quitting myth is something you do so rarely, it shouldn't be so easy to do it by accident.<br><br>j<br><br>
