Have you entered the XMLTVIDs for your channels?  When you login to the SchedulesDirect website, there is a handy button to printout your list of channels including the XMLTVid. 

I've never had luck with Myth's LiveTV so I never use the channel editor there.  (Is there where you've experienced crashes?  I certainly do.)  I use the MythTV-setup channel editor to put in the XMLTVID for each interesting channel found in the scan.  I set the hidden attribute for boring channels (French language, not that there's anything wrong with that, and others that I'll never watch).
