I've installed the CVS and have to say that about 70% of the time I can
now hit EXIT to get back to the menus when it freezes, but live TV will
not work properly again after doing this. I have to restart _both_ the
frontend and backend if I do this. If I don't restart the backend, then
the next time I go to live TV, it's guaranteed to freeze within 4
seconds, and the exit button won't respond that time.
