I had a similar experience with my twin Nova-t backend.  I upgraded
from a perfectly working mythtv 0.15.  Recordings work just fine on
0.19 as does tzap.

However entering LiveTV just sits there with a blank screen for 40
seconds then returns to the menu.  The frontend and backend seem to
miscommunicate about which file the livetv is actually being saved to
- perhaps because of the very long initial tuning times?

Here are the frontend and backend logs for the period.

To be honest I'm not that bothered about LiveTV.  It would be nice to
have it working again because it used to work quite well, but I don't
really need it - watching TV in real time is so 20th century ;-)
