[mythtv-users] mythtv 0.26 - cannot play live TV on PVR250

[Dave Pearson]

Hi,

 
Since upgrading to 0.26 this morning I have been unable to play live tv from my PVR250 cards (my DVB-T cards are OK).

 
When I switch to one of the PVR250's, the frontend display goes black and I cannot escape back to the menu, the only way out is to kill the frontend process.

 
While the frontend is displaying the black screen, the video file is created, grows in size and can be played in mplayer.

 
It is possible to record programs OK.

 
This is a part of the server log:

A short while later:

Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this problem?
