OK, here goes:

Up until I upgraded to MythTV 0.24, whenever I started Live TV it would 
always start on the last channel selected on the Last Tuner in the list 
of Tuners.

Since I've upgraded to 0.24, it now starts on the last channel that was 
being watched on the last Tuner being used. For me, this is not so good 
since it could be the Composite Channel on my PVR250, which means the IR 
Blaster changes the channel on my Sky Box (and my son gets cross with me!).

I'd like to be able to change it back so that it always starts on the 
last tuner (in my case a DVB-T card).

Regards,
Dave.
