Know anything about gdb? It sounds like one of the processes is getting
stopped up -- can you recompile for debugging (editing settings.pro,
remaking), run mythtv in gdb and hit ctl-c once it hangs like that.. send me
the output of 'bt' and 'info threads'. Other thing to do would be to stick
some debugging statements in libs/libmythtv/tv.cpp:TV::TogglePIPView() to see
how far along it gets.. Most likely, its hanging waiting for either the
recording process or the playback to get started.

I dunno -- changing the capture resolution in xawtv ('slong as you're using
grabdisplay, and not overlay mode) might be easiest to see.. The PiP
resolution's hardcoded in libs/libmythtv/tv.cpp, though.
