The following should be a suitable start:<br>
<br>
[Unit]<br>
Description=the open source DVR, MythTV<br>
After=graphical-session.target<br>
BindsTo=graphical-session.targ<wbr>et<br>
<br>
[Service]<br>
Environment=DISPLAY=%i<br>
ExecStart=/usr/bin/mythfronten<wbr>d<br>
<br>
[Install]<br>
WantedBy=graphical-session.tar<wbr>get<br>
<br>
This should start mythtv when you log in (WantedBy) and kill mythtv when you log out (BindsTo). Save this as<br>
/etc/systemd/system/mythtv@.se<wbr>rvice, then run "systemctl enable mythtv@:0.service" for display :0.<br>

That's pretty cool but I have two questions...<br>
This will start mythfrontend for ALL users, not just a specific one right? <br>
I have a "mythuser" login and use the session preferences to start the frontend which always works for me so luckily I don't<br>
have this problem... I wouldn't want mythfrontend to load if I login as another user...<br>

<br>
Good point. Save the file to ~/.config/systemd/user/mythtv@<wbr>.service<span class=""><br>

Wouldn't you want to add mythbackend to the "After" command? I know there's still issues with it not necessarily being ready<br>
to accept connections even if systemd thinks it's up, but it could help.<br>

Yes. After mythbackend probably makes more sense than after mysql, as mythbackend probably won't come ready until it has access to the database.<br>
