[mythtv-users] Database reset problem

I stopped using the built in Parental Controls because of lack of control.
The big issue for me is once a password is entered the level did not reset
when the vidoe play ended so to go back to a lower level of access you had
to restart MythTV.

Has that been fixed? If so then I would switch back.
