Hi, I'm using the Debian Mythtv v0.17 packages on Debian Sarge with a couple of Nova-T DVB cards (one each of Conexant and Philips chipsets), and I'm having an annoying issue when channel hopping with my Nova-T DVB cards in LiveTV.
The problem is that if I accidentally switch onto a channel for which there is currently no program (such as a time-sliced channel outside of its broadcasting hours), MythTv freezes up. The backend reports 'DVB#0 WARNING - No data from card in 1 second.' warnings and eventually gives up with 'Couldn't read data from the capture card in 15 seconds. Stopping.'. Fair enough, but during this time the keys no longer work so I am unable to switch to another channel, and the frontend either locks up completely or takes me back out to the menu. Furthermore, if I try to go back into LiveTv it immediately takes me back to the same channel and freezes for 15 seconds before kicking me out again, even if I restart the frontend. The only way to use LiveTV again is to restart the backend. Has anybody else had this problem? Is this something that has already been fixed in more recent versions? Cheers, Ben.
