frontend stuck after failure to start livetv

[thomas.epperson@…]

I am using the following version: mythtv-0.25.2+fixes.20120802.46cab93 My mythfrontend is getting stuck somewhere after failing to start livetv. I start watching livetv and get prompted that there is no signal on the current channel. Everything works there. When I change to another channel, I see these two lines on the terminal output:

2012-10-27 19:45:09.278505 E  TV: StartRecorder() -- timed out waiting for recorder to start
2012-10-27 19:45:09.278519 E  TV: LiveTV not successfully started

GDB shows me this:
