I was having the problem where I would switch to live tv and get like
a second of tv then black screen then menu....

This is what I did and it worked....

exit out of frontend.... run mythtvsetup....  choose yes to delete
channel information....

rerun channell setup... then run mythfilldatabase

Then I dropped the following into /etc/rc.local

/sbin/rmmod ivtv
/sbin/depmod -a
/sbin/modprobe ivtv
/sbin/modprobe lirc_i2c
service lircd restart
service mythbackend restart

Now reboot the machine, cross your fingers and hopefully you will be
watching Live TV.
