Watch TV displays a solid green screen

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. From MythBox select Watch TV
2. From the channel listing select a show

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Expect Live TV to appear. Instead, I see buffering then a blank green
screen. If I attempt to exit, I'm allowed back to the previous screen but
not any futher; Have to kill xbmc processes from there.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
MythBox: mythbox-svn-865.tar.gz
MythTV Version   : 20205
MythTV Branch    : branches/release-0-21-fixes
Library API      : 0.21.20080304-1
Network Protocol : 40
XBMC ver: pre-9.04 r18547
Linux nubuntu 2.6.27-11-generic #1 SMP Thu Jan 29 19:24:39 UTC 2009 i686
GNU/Linux
Ubuntu 8.10

UPDATE:
I have solved the green screen. The issue was with MythTV using "Rtjpeg" as it's
encoder. Changing this setting fixed the issue. 

However, when I exit LiveTV, the system get's stuck still.

Better description: I can watch Live TV, but when I exit back to the listing 
screen
this is as far as I can go. From there I can not go to previous screens. If I 
hit the
XBMC "power" button on my remote it freezes the XBMC process and I have to kill 
them.

Logs attached.

Which encoder did you change to? I would like to add this to the FAQ.

Are you using the mouse or the keyboard to navigate? Can you retry just using 
the kbd
to exit the listing screen? Other than that, I don't see anything unusual in 
the log
files. Is this still a problem?

Start MythTV frontend, go to the "Utilites/Setup- Setup - TV Settings - 
Recording
Profiles - Software Encoders (if you have not mpeg2 tuner card)". Then manage 
profile
for Live TV: set codec MPEG4 instead of RTjpeg.

Enjoy!
