[mythtv-users] Live TV Channel change problem with GUI

Sun Sep 6 22:26:47 UTC 2009

Hi Again,

Here's some logs I collected from the backend with "-v channel". In this
example, I was on channel 240 HSN, I wanted to switch to SpikeTV (241). When
I browsed to Spike TV using the OSD and hit enter, the backend switched to
channel 4, not 241. This is weird. The line below is setting the channel to
4, when I selected SpikeTV. Any ideas?

Hi Mike,

Thanks for the super fast reply. I looked at the ticket, but it might not be
the same issue. The new channel I want to change to, is on the same input
(card). But it changes to a different input (card). I'll generate some logs
and report back with them.

Thanks,
Kevin
