Hmmm.   Based on what you sent me, it looks like that patch IS doing  
it's job.  You seem to have triggered some other issue.  It is  
possible that information is lost in the snips, but I doubt it.

When this happens, what are YOU doing?  It looks like you may have  
paused LiveTV for a while?  Maybe you can come up with a recipe of  
actions which would allow me to reproduce the problem.  The ONLY time  
I ever go into LiveTV is to test something like this.  All I did was  
start up LiveTV, and then try changing to a dozen different channels.   
If you did something different than that, it may be the cause.

Or, you could fix the problem by not use LiveTV ;-)

BTW.  Go ahead and keep this discussion on the mailing list.  It might  
help someone else.  If you need to provide further logs, bzip2 them,  
and attach them to the ticket, and send me a note to tell me it is  
there.
