Did anyone find this option yet? It seems it's not activated by default. Or
the timer is so high i never saw it in my tests :-)

Interesting. I had no idea this feature even existed, but doing a
quick search of the code I found it. Glancing at the code, it appears
to make sense and should work, but obviously I've never tried it, so
no guarantee that this is a finished, working feature.

Looking at the code, there is no place to set this in the GUI. You
will need to insert it into the database directly (in the settings
table). The setting name is LiveTVIdleTimeout, and the value is the
number of minutes after which to timeout.You can do that using the
following SQL command (replace <X> with the number of minutes you want
to set the timeout to, and replace <Y> with the hostname of your
frontend).

INSERT INTO `mythconverg`.`settings` (`value` ,`data` ,`hostname`)
VALUES ('LiveTVIdleTimeout', '<X>', '<Y>');

Thanks, tried it and it works. With 0.20.2 sometimes a frontend powered off
but livetv continued and 2 days later backend crashed. So this option is not
bad i think. I set it for all frontends to 300 min = 5 h.

At least use MythWeb to set it... And/or full backup before messing
with the DB.

How do you set values which don't exist in mythweb?

I guess you can't. Sorry, I didn't realize that was the case.

I don't think it will show in mythweb until it is in the database.

Though perhaps you inadvertently came up with a feature request. It
seems MythTV has lots of hidden setting that don't have gui configs,
so it would be nice to be able to add these in easily without asking
people to run SQL code.
