Thanks Dirk, I know about the "Pre-shutdown-check command" and have a
similar script running. It works fine.

But I want to do something different. I want to shutdown after the
currently active job finishes and resume all other pending jobs at the
next boot.

BTW: you can run "mythshutdown --check" to check for running user-,
transcode- and commflag-jobs.
