 I have attached the output of mythfrontend --version and mythbackend
 --version. I have also attached a diff from two changes to the firewire
 related sources to add in the vendor and model IDs of my Motorola
 DCX-3400-M STB. These patches are the same in 0.23 and 0.24. When using
 0.23 I needed to use a similarly modified version of 6200ch to change
 channels. I removed this from mythtv-setup for 0.24.

 After the upgrade to 0.24 I was no longer able to switch to liveTV or
 record any programs. My STB has an LED display on the front panel which
 shows digit-by-digit when a number is pressed on the remote or sent to it
 via firewire. When I select liveTV in mythfrontend I see the 3 digits sent
 to the STB the same as in 0.23. I also see the OSD come up briefly and
 show "Signal 100% TLAM Lock", but before the playback can start (1-2
 seconds later) I see the 3 channel digits get sent to the STB again, then
 the frontend returns to the menu with an error. I have tried to change the
 tuner timeout in mythtv-setup to as high as 20000ms but it appears to make
 no difference.

 Steps to reproduce:
 1. With a Motorola DCX-3200-M STB apply the attached patches
 2. Build & install mythtv-0.24
 3. Run MythTV-setup to upgrade the database, remove the external channel
 changer
 4. Start mythbackend and mythfrontend upgrading the database as needed
 5. Attempt to watch live TV. Output as per attached logs.

 I can revert to 0.23 + 6200ch and things are working normally again.
