Hello,
Does anyone know if there is a way to rig the MythTV app on my desktop so it cannot load more than once? My 5-year-old likes to watch movies and she knows to click on the MythTV icon and where to go to find movies. But sometimes she's a little impatient and accidentally loads several instances of MythTV at the same time. When this happens, it's difficult to switch between them with the wireless keyboard and it bogs everything down.
Any suggestions?
Rob

get pid
I would think there's a .pid file somewhere that you can check before starting another instance? Or you can do a ps -ef |grep mythfrontend.
something like:
ps ax |grep "mythfrontend" > /tmp/myth.pid
head -n 1 /tmp/myth.pid > /tmp/mythfe.pid
set -- $(cut -b1-5 /tmp/mythfe.pid)
pid="$*"
if [ -z "$pid" ] ;
then
let pid=0
fi
echo "pid $pid"
if [ $pid -gt 0 ] ; then
echo detected running $pid
else
echo starting!!
fi
Good suggestion...
I'll give it a try.
Thank you,
Rob
