The backend is perfectly fine.  It tunes to a channel and attempts to get data..
Fixing the backend really won't help much when you have stations that the PMT
claims its on the air, but no data comes since its realyl off the air.. It
works when you re-tune for a recording, so I don't see the backend as a
problem.  Its the frontend that currently doesn't:

1. Handle running out of video in an elegant way
2. Allow you to send a new channel to the backend to re-tune
