 If you enable SmartChannelChange and play a recording, mythfrontend
 crashes on a number press.

 The issue with SmartChannelChange enabled, a number press causes a call to
 ChannelCommit(), which apparently causes problems.  I have not traced
 where the eventual crash takes place, but presume it's a cause of querying
 or setting the channel when not in live TV.

 Patch is simple and follows.

 It may have implications if you are watching a recording that was still
 being recorded.  I've noticed that I was somehow able to change the
 channel in this mode.  I do not view this as a feature and have not tried
 to reproduce the behavior predictably.  I suspect that this is not
 intended behavior anyway.
