This is a guess, but I somewhere in the settings (can't remember
whether it's mythfrontend setup menu or in mythtvsetup) there's
something about transparent menus or something like that. Maybe that
causes it to be a transparent overlay on your picture or maybe there's
a transparent EPG setting somewhere.

Perhaps you should download a new theme such as the one posted here a
few days ago (search archives for mythtvcenter in last week I think)
and see if that fixes it. If you have the same problem then it's
almost certain that the theme is not your problem, it's a setting
somewhere else.
