Let me see if I get this straight... Are you saying that you cannot
change channel using the arrow (up/down) keys but you can if you type a
number and hit enter?
this is probably a silly comment but... are you sure you hit the
"select" key (space bar) after you hit the up-arrow? There is a setting
in mythfrontend that you can toggle the action of the arrow keys to
either change the channel immediately or to wait for you to hit the
select key...
like I said, it's probably a silly comment...
