</div>I think you're right, this is most likely a bug in mythbackend. I actually tried to fix the problem you are talking about in 0.18 when I changed the code on my machine to avoid shutdown when there were user jobs pending but I didn't spend enough time to do it right. Maybe I'll take another crack at it and see if I can't get a patch included in
0.20.<br>
