#1108: Frontend crashes when switching to a channel with 5C protection on Firewire

 Priority:  major                   |   Milestone:  0.19

 Severity:  high                    |  
------------------------------------+---------------------------------------
 When I watch live TV and switch from a 5C=0 channel (copy protection off
 such as regular OTA and basic cable channels) to one that has copy
 protection such as premium cable or Comcast's INHD channels, the picture
 freezes on the last frame of the previous non-copy protected channel. The
 CPU usage of mythfrontend goes to the max it can and never recovers.
 Assumably, the firewire stream at that point is suddenly null and the
 frontend isn't handling this.

 My setup:
 SVN 8657 (1/19/06)
 Firewire with DCT-6200 and Comcast cable

 I apologize in advance if I may have interpreted the priority and severity
 wrong, though at this stage of the release I thought my choices are
 correct
