What happens if someone forgets to shutdown a frontend and its on live tv. Does
it just stay connected to the backend buffering data to the disks? Wouldn't
this be hard on the disks on the backend if this were a common occurence. Is
their a way to have it go back to the menu and/or shut itself down after a
specified time?<br>
<br>
<br>
I know it seems like a silly question I hope not too silly :) <br>

font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>I ran into this problem when
I lived at home with my parents. Being the kid with no real expenses my
earnings from my part time job bought the HDTV. And I hooked it up to my Myth

<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'><span style='font-size:11.0pt;
font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>They would watch TV when I
was not home and “shut it off” via the power button assuming that doing so also
turned off live tv. I came home once from a weekend trip with like 24 hours +
of recordings.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

you have a universal remote from someone like Logitech is program the off
button to also send a signal to exit live tv. However, if you are not on live
tv when shutting it off this may cause other problems.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
