This is probably something really straight forward, but for some reason, I 
cant change channel when watching livetv.

Now, I am in the UK and the FAQ says that being unable to change channel is 
normally due to errors when running mythfilldatabase however when running 
mythfilldatabase, I get no errors.

I dont know if it is relevant but programguide shows nothing at all.... there 
is just nothing listed.

I have spent all day looking into this problem but havent got anywhere.  

Here is some of the output from mythfilldatabase (snipped as it lists hundreds 
of conflicting programs).
