First off, thanks for taking the time.

When I just "ESC" back to the main menu from any of the submenus (or even
livetv) it does what it's supposed to...just sits at the main menu screen.

I have a fresh install of Mythdora4 (I believe it's mythtv 0.20.2, because I
have access to SD).

So it appears that this problem only happens when I use the jump points.
I've set about three different key binding combinations that I know are not
conflicting and they all result in the same problem.  And as I've shown, the
telnet interface gives me the same problem.

As far as themes go, I'm getting these off mythweb (search for "theme"):
MenuTheme:     Default
OSDTheme:      Retro-OSD
Theme:         Retro
ThemePainter:  opengl
RandomTheme:   0

This is a pretty recent install, so I'm kinda surprised that I am getting
this problem...  About the only thing I have changed from the default
install was setting up XvMC.

Thanks again,

Brian
