Jim,

I just rebuild latest 0.25-fixes (v0.25-54-g46062bf-dirty-20120423) and 
will let You know how it goes. So far testing briefly on few transitions 
and looks OK. After few days of test I will report how it goes.

During those tests however I got BE deadlock :-(
Iit is repeatable as I remember few days ago I had it also.

Scenario:
-is 8:28PM, livetv plays.
-I have scheduled another recording at 8:30PM.
-just before 8:30PM I got pop-up with question: watch& record; back to 
main menu & record; cancel recording and keep watching.
-I select cancel recording and decided to watching livetv.
-At 8:30PM livetv freezes and BE become deadlocked (famous PROTO_EMPTY 
on all FE).

Unfortunately no logs as I was in panic & quickly restarted BE as all my 
home mates become highly nervous about unresponsive system....
