livetv is not working from my frontend. i added a hauppauge hdpvr and that
is when the problem started. so i'm guessing its trying to use that for
livetv which is what i want. the hdpvr is on /dev/video0. when i open
mythfrontend from the command prompt i get this in the logs:

2009-01-22 14:06:51.282 Checking to see if there's a new livetv program to
switch to..

the codec for the files at this time is HD video with AAC audio. i have a
optical audio cable on the way, so i think that when i start getting audio
from that input, i should be getting HD video with ac3 audio. is it the aac
audio codec that its complaining about?
thank you
