It seems like that trick doesn't work for me... However, it is possible to watch old recordings, as well as record new programs. After I have recorded a program, LiveTV works until I reboot, then it does not work until I record a program again.
Another problem that arise is that I changed video cards and now I get inverted colors on my ATI Radeon card when displaying video with XV output. Since I can dual boot FC1 and Ubuntu I first noticed it in FC1 but Ubuntu worked fine with mplayer etc. However, after I successfully recorded a program and then switched to LiveTV, everything worked, but the next time I watched LiveTV the colors where inverted, and even after reboot the colors are inverted....???
