Just a random idle thought:  no matter how hard you try, it's impossible 
to fit a useful description of an issue into the subject of an e-mail.  
(OK, there's one exception I've ever seen, but I think you'll agree that 
accident is not something that should be repeated:  
http://www.mythtv.org/pipermail/mythtv-users/2006-October/151994.html )  
There's not nearly enough information here for someone to reproduce the 
issue, let along figure out what might be causing the issue--unless, of 
course, they just happen to guess very well.

If you don't have time to write up a useful description (complete with 
the version/revision of MythTV you're using, a description of your 
system configuration(s--if you have remote backends/frontends involved), 
a list of relevant key mappings you may have changed (or a statement 
that you're using the default key mappings), how to reproduce the issue, 
the information that might be useful that you've found while researching 
the issue, and the steps you've tried to resolve the issue), why should 
others take time to write up useful information about what might be 
causing the issue only to later find out that the information they took 
time to write up doesn't apply--something they likely would have known 
with a better description /in the body of the e-mail/.

So, how about a better description?  Perhaps then someone we'll be 
better able to help.  ;)
