First I want to say thanks to everyone involved with the MythTV 
application, ivtv, lirc, etc. This is great work you all have done!

Here's a problem I'm having:
If I select watch live TV, or view a recorded TV program, the system 
locks up solid, and I have to power off and on. Sometimes I get a few 
frames of video before it locks up. I can run an XTerm and view a .nuv 
file using mplayer with no problem. The system records fine. Since the 
system dies hard, I haven't been able to do much troubleshooting on the 
problem. I haven't seen anything in the logs to help with the problem. 
I have R'ed every FM I can find, to no avail. Any suggestions are 
greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
   JJ
