A better response:
The lockup I am referring is a "logical" lockup. When you tune a
not-broadcasting channel, the mythfrontend returns to the main screen with
the following message on stdout:
Waited 14 seconds for data to become available, aborting
The mythtv system is fully functional, but you cannot tune another channel
and so you cannot watch livetv. If you retry livetv, the not-broadcasting
channel is again tuned and frontend exits again. The only way to exit this
loop is to access settings via mysql and change the startchan/tunechan in
videosource and restart mythtvbackend.
