I was having the same problem, but I did get it fixed, sort of. It has
something to do with the modprobe of ivtv. If I let mythbackend start
automatically, I get the freeze. However, when I run /sbin/modprobe
ivtv and then start mythbackend by hand, it doesn't freeze. I haven't
had the time to look into why it doesn't probe properly. I also have
problems with lirc not starting properly on boot. If I modprobe lirc by
hand all is well. My guess is they aren't being probed at the right
time during boot.
As far as the blue border you can run this command:
xvattr -a XV_COLORKEY -v 66046
That changes the blue to black effectively removing the border. You
will have to apt-get install xvattr to get this to work. The change
isn't permenant, so you will have to run it again every time you login.
If you look on Google you can find a startup shell script to
automatically change it on boot.

Soon after sending out this message:
""When in mythfrontend I hit the "Watch TV" thing and the TV plays
for about 3 seconds (it looks good), then it freezes (it goes back to
the main mythfrontend window soon after)! I am running Fedora Core 3
with a Huappauge 250 and a Nvidia video card (using TV out). Any help?
Also, I see something of a colored frame around the screen only when
using watch TV. Any way to fix that?
Thanks!

I tried watching TV again and after playing for about 2 seconds the
TV stream turned off and a warning said "Error displaying video."
Does that help fix my problem?
