Having a bit of a strange one here.

Two tuners, PVR350 plugged into Sky decoder, with serial transmittor to 
change channels, DVB card as second tuner

Just upgraded from .16 to CVS (.17).
I followed Martin Smith's guide  
http://www.ethics-gradient.net/myth/mythdvb2.html to upgrade my dvb 
stuff in the database.
All looked good, playback, recording etc.

If I select a channel to record, both the DVB tuner and the PVR 
successfully change channel.
If I try to watch TV ... no go.  DVB doesn't come back, PVR stays on the 
last recorded from channel

With the PVR, it just gets stuck on a channel and wont change.  If I 
record on it, it manages to change channel!

Help!?!
