Yeah.  I have something similar.  Killing off mythfrontend just so
"coarse".

AFAIK there's no reason why killing the frontend should prevent it
making a graceful exit.

I thought that was what kill -9 was for.


I was annoyed enough by the lack of reasonable method for quitting mythfrontend with a remote, that I made some patches to handle it - added another event called SHUTDOWN, and assigned it to my remote's power button - which then gived a (modified) menu of Cancel or Exit & Shutdown.

I didn't bother sending the patches upstream, as they're for libmyth, which is being made obsolete.
