Comment (by Craig Treleaven <ctreleaven@…>):

 Some of the MythTV plugins are non-functional on OS X, at least the last
 time I played with them (~1 year ago).  My experience was similar to that
 of the OP in that the screen became non-responsive to the keyboard or
 mouse.  However, I was able to kill the frontend with from the command
 line or from Activity Monitor without hanging anything else.  MythBrowser
 and MythNews would trigger the problem.  MythGallery, MythWeather and
 MythMusic worked OK.  I saw a note from jya that seemed to confirm the
 problem.  I follow the commits and haven't noticed any related fixes.

 I opened a bug (11990) that I think could possibly be related as it is
 triggered by two pop-up dialogs in a row in the HDHomerun channel scanner.
 It seems to me that something about opening another window and then
 closing it and returning control to the former window is messed up on OS
 X.  What the problem is--and why it affects OS X but not other platforms--
 is well beyond my skill set.  And I could be completely out in left field!
 ;)

 BTW, air_drummer, If this is on the machine that you replaced the Core Duo
 with a Core2 Duo, that could be a contributing factor to the unrecoverable
 hang.
