[mythtv-users] Can't Change Channel

You know, I just had a problem not being able to change channels (it was
always on the channel I set as the starting one).

The work around I found was not to let myth back & front ends start at
system boot or login.

I'll keep trying new things, but that worked for me for now.

make sure your starting channel is set correctly - i.e when you ran
mythtvsetup.
