FWIW, I am (and some others here as well)  running mythlink as a cron job
instead of a system event.  Mine is set to run nightly, and I've never
noticed a link that didn't work, but it is possible I guess.

Still, I am not sure if the deletion of a symlink would affect in progress
video playback.  Would you mind posting back after you have tried it? Or if
anyone else already knows?  Or is it different depending on the player
reading the file?
