Okay, well, I think the best way to progress from here is to look at what errors/warnings are produced when livetv fails to work. So, please telnet to your mvp, login as root, no password, and type the following commands killall mvpmc mvpmc -s 192.168.0.50 And then browse and attempt to start livetv as normal, and observe what errors are produced. >> You have a bunch of switches specified that I've found to be problematic >> or are redundant with compiled-in defaults. > > I have eliminated the extras.
