So I just emailed with Andrew ( the developer) and he states this: That's
so that the default is to skip idle encoders. To show those you
can use --noencoder-skip-idle on the command line, or if you have a config
file called mythtv-status.yml have a setting like this:
encoder_skip_idle: 0
Which works perfectly. So the perl script wasn't broken just set to not
show idle by default. The command line would be:
$ mythtv-status --noencoder-skip-idle
So I've changed the file back, which was always a hack to show idle. All good!
