Cannot change the channel.

This was one of the symptoms, and I saw it on the new install
yesterday. Yes, setting up the recording profile fixed that. Some
other types of corruption included square blocks seemingly randomly
scattered (like a DVD that is out of sync briefly), blue and red
splashes on the black screen, moving (that didn't go away when I
unplugged the unit!), and vertical stripes. These are not happening
now.
