Description

I have a crappy cable STB which has no power on/of IR code, just a power toggle. To get around this problem I have been using the rec pending & rec finished system events to execute a script that turns the STB on before a recording stops and off after it ends. This works well for standard recordings, but causes issues in a live TV situation as it tries to turn the STB off while changing channels.

To work around this problem I was using the LiveTV start event to know when to ignore record start/end events, but I needed a LiveTV end event to ensure the STB was powered off when exiting live TV mode. This patch adds that event.

2nd patch added for tv_play.cpp to prevent the event from being triggered on playback end. It should only fire when leaving livetv mode.

Looks a nice clean patch. We should be able to get this one in no problem.
