601	Support hotpluggable disc drives in MediaMonitor	Aaron McCarthy <mccarthy.aaron@…>	danielk	"This patch implements support for hotplugging removable disc drives in MediaMonitor.  A new MythMediaDevice subclass implements a generic hard disc device.  In addition it supports mounting and unmounting via pmount if it is available.  If you use pmount you don't need to explicitly define mount points in /etc/fstab.  Make sure the user running mythfrontend is a member of the plugdev or equivalent group.

To get hotplug message you will need to (or whatever your distribution does, this is for Debian)

install contrib/mythtv.rules into /etc/udev/
create a link in /etc/udev/rules.d to the newly install /etc/udev/mythtv.rules
install contrib/mythtv_media_monitor.sh into /etc/udev/scripts/

This requires udev version 0.71.  

There is also a new global keybinding called 'EJECT' that will eject devices.  If you have only one device (known to the MediaMonitor) it will be unmounted and ejected.  If you have more than one a dialog box will popup so you can select the device to eject.  You can use this to safely remove USB sticks etc.

This code is related to my code to get MythGallery to access my digital camera, I will submit that patch soon."	enhancement	closed	minor	0.20	mythtv	head	medium	fixed			0
