"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."

I have the same problem as CedyAtHome.  However, I installed from the ubuntu repos, NOT autobuilds

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 
Antonio
