<br></blockquote><div><br></div></div></div><div>I have this same issue and have not fixed it but think I know what the issue is. Can you issue either reboot or shutdown commands as the user running mythfronted (presumably mythtv user)? If you try to, does it ask for a su password? I believe you need to give the user the the ability to execute these commands without further interaction. I know this a simple fix (I am thinking I need to edit the sudoers file) but have not reminded myself on how to do it. <br></div></div></div></div>
