[mythtv-users] Channel changing problem

[guy bayes]

I fixed this by going into the backend
setup.InmputConnections.Svideo, and putting in
/bin/true in the "external channel change command" and
3 for reset tuner and starting channel.

I also made sure that the other internal conenctions
were not set to the same Video Source

be cool
