Hi - I need help. My user crontab is spawning multiple at processes (and multiple mencoder program starts, that exit, then restart, repeatedly), locking up my system.
The problem is that virtually every time the pvr script is called by crontab, it spawns (continuously) multiple/new at command processes (Process Viewer), and also several mencoder processes that continually start, stop, relaunch, that are multiply-present in Process Viewer at any one time. The recordings are all partial files (snips). This had been working properly, until about a month ago (Ubuntu updates, screwing things up?).
I'd appreciate it is someone could explain to me what the problem is. FYI: I am using Ubuntu 8.04 LTS -Hardy Heron.
Thanks, appreciated, Greg :-)
