[mythtv] frontend hangs on livetv error

[Jonathan Sass]

I too am having similar issues with signal strength changing for 
pcHDTV.  Would it be possible to modify the code so the front end shows 
something like a test pattern if the channel signal is too low?  Can 
someone point me to the source where it  might be appropriate to make 
changes like that?
