One of them reported "Failed with exit status 140" the first time it ran.  The rest (about 3 or 4 tries of the two included in those logs) simple reported "Finished 1 Commercial Break Found (then 2, then 3, etc)" when the caught up to the recording in progress.  This only seemed to happen for jobs being run from mythjobqueue or mythbackend on the SBE.  Once the recordings finished, I re-queued again and then ran through the whole program with no problem from the SBE, so it appears to be an issue with commflags running from a SBE in real time that catch up to the recording in progress.  Any jobs that ran from the MBE performed as expected and simply slowed down and kept step with the recording in progress when they caught up to it.
At this point, I have moved all job tasks the MBE and shut down the SBE completely.  However, I am more than happy to fire it back up to do jobs to help figure it all out.
