[Bug 467146] Re: Edit channel option freezes MythTV

 

I have the same issue. I am using the Hauppauge WinTV HVR 2250 connected to a digital cable signal & using QAM 256 in the US.  built the driver using the source at kernelllabs.com following directions here
http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=7344302&postcount=10

I am using autobuilds (v.22) and updated last night. No other changes to
Mythbuntu.

I can reproduce the bug on demand. I run front end and flip through
channels - everything works fine. The first time I press "E" to edit the
channel, I see the Edit Channel screen show up. I can edit and save or
just look & hit OK to exit. I can then continue to change channels, see
the menu, program guide etc. But if I press "E" again, the front end
hangs. TV show continues on channel that was selected, but no commands
work any more. I have to kill the front end.

I can start the front end again, and it works just fine will I repeat
the above sequence.

There have been a few times when the Frontend will hang right after the
first time I press "E". But the above behaviour is more prevalent.

Logs are at http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com/f78e76d29

Thank you.

Status in Mythbuntu, Ubuntu derivative focused upon MythTV: Incomplete

Bug description:
Mythbuntu 9.10 (amd64):

MythTV freezes randomly (most of the time) during LiveTV when "edit channel" menu entry is chosen. Channel being viewed still works but no other action is possible, having to kill the process.

Mine is an Asus P3-P5G43 (Intel Core 2 Duo + GMA X4500 graphics) barebone.

Cheers
