I see there is no ticket that I can find for this issue, so you may want 
to create one.

https://code.mythtv.org/trac/wiki/TicketHowTo

There is an enhancement in the next version (29) to add "Watch this 
channel" to the menu from pressing enter or Select in the guide, so it 
will make that a bit easier. I always use the guide to invoke LiveTV 
anyway, because using the "Live TV" from the main menu starts you up in 
the last used channel, which is often not the one wanted.
