It looks like I'll be taking over mythtv packaging for RPM Fusion

I noticed it still only uses a sysv init script.
In the sysv script it sets some ACL permissions on video and audio
devices necessary for the backend service, and then on shutdown
changes it back.
I don't see any way to accomplish this in a systemd unit file other
than running a script.
What's the right way to do this? I have a template unit file (not
meant to "work" yet):

PIDFile=/var/run/mythbackend.pid

This is what I wrote a while back for mythtv in rpmfusion but never
submitted since I could not find someone to test it.
Note this got picked up by someone and adapted to atrpm version the
other day.
Cant recall if that indvidual pinged me on irc or on some mailing list.
