I have just moved my MythTV (combined FE/BE) to new hardware, and upgraded from 0.27 to 0.34. I use a wireless keyboard to control the system. All now seems to be working except that when I hit ESC to end playback on a DVD it does not bookmark the current position. If I explicitly bookmark, that works as expected, and playback will resume from the right place.
Does anyone know if I am missing a setting, or a permission somewhere? This just worked "out of the box" on my 0.27 system.

Re: DVD not marking position at end of playback
Did the hostname change? A lot of your preferences are stored by hostname, so maybe you had something set and now it is not?
Perhaps

mythbackend$ mysql -umythtv -p mythconverg -e "select * from settings where value like '%DVDBookmark%';"
Re: DVD not marking position at end of playback
I kept the hostname the same.
The only settings I found for 'DVDBookMark' seem to relate to using a DVD-RW as a recording destination.
I have a faint memory that when I set up my original system (around 11 years ago) I had to change a setting to automatically bookmark the last-played point in recordings and I assumed that it carried over into doing the same thing for DVD playback. That setting seems to have changed its purpose and the default is now to record that last position for recordings.
