If pressing C to change to the other input does not work, make sure
you do not have the option selected to avoid LiveTV clashing with
recordings (TV settings). I can only imagine this happening if there
are upcoming recordings close to the time you are trying to watch
programming on the input you are not able to access in LiveTV.
