I have not been able to get Live TV working on my combined BE/FE so I
would like to remove the option from the menu on the Mythcenter-wide
theme. I have been searching through the xmls within the theme
directories but I cannot figure out what to remove. How can I modify the
menu?

The Live TV issue has not been a priority to fix because we do not watch
Live TV on the BE/FE and Live TV works on all the FEs just fine.
However, guests always seem to end up selecting Live TV even after
explaining many times not to use it (I chalk this up to them not use to
the new way of watching TV). Suggestions for fixing the Live TV are also
welcome. I am recording OTA HD using HDHRs (the oraginal grey ones with
two RF connectors). My recording are going to a RAID6 NAS over GigE
network using NFSv3. I get about 30 secs of playback before Myth drops
out to the menu with frame buffer errors.

Running Myth 0.27-alpha (updated as of Aug 17). I have had this issue on
the BE/FE for as long as I can remember (actually, I don't remember Live
TV ever working).
