[mythtv-users] LiveTV Broken or Bad Permissions?

Hello all,

	I've been using the Subversion build of MythTV for the past couple of 
weeks now, and the 'Watch TV' (LiveTV) link hasn't worked at all (i.e. 
the link text flashes and does nothing, no log entry or anything).  
Does anyone know if this is currently broken (SVN build 7892), or is 
this a permissions problem on my box?  I've put my mythtv user into the 
video group, so they can see /dev/video0, and mplayer can read from it 
too.  I have two tuner cards (PVR-250 and PCHDTV-3000) that play 
together well as far as I know.  The only reason I ask about the 
permissions is that I had the same problem playing a DVD at one point, 
then I added mythtv to the cdrom group (or whatever the /dev group was) 
and it worked.

Thanks,
Dustin
