[mythtv-users] 0.21: Issue with freezing LiveTV

[James Sumners]

I have the same problem. When the program changes from (e.g. from King
of Queens to Seinfeld) the playback freezes. Recording continues, but
video and sound stop. Exiting LiveTV and re-entering "fixes" the
problem.

Is there a real solution?
