@janbar I upgraded mythtv from 29 to 30 about a month ago. At the time I had a frontend on a raspberry pi 3 with raspbian jessie and kodi 17.3? and whichever pvr.mythtv was available. I upgraded to raspbian stretch with kodi 18.1 and pvr.mythtv 5.10.6. Regardless of whether I have the option "block backend shutdown" enabled or disabled, the master backend (on another machine) will not automatically shutdown with mythwelcome. I just exited kodi on the pi last night and the master backend shutdown automatically as expected. I am going to give it a couple more nights to ensure that it is consistent, but in the meantime I wanted to check if I am misunderstanding something or if this is not working as expected. In previous versions I could leave kodi running on the pi and the backend would still shutdown with mythwelcome overnight.
