This is an issue I've seen as well when Myth tunes to a DVB channel which is
bad for some reason you'll get that error. When you acknowledge the error
LiveTV exits forcing you to try again - with the same result. At this point
your only recourse is to change cardinput.startchan in the database to
something else (or clearing it entirely). For me it's rare but does happen
from time to time.
