I've already got this method selected in mythtv-setup, the cards are
set to open each time and then release.
Guess I will have to put up with it and hope that each time it happens
its not a show I really wanted to see.
I do think I will compile 0.19 manually when it does become available
and hopefully someone will do an OSX frontend compile to save me the
time :)
