So I watched an avi and after it finished I tried to tune into Sky3, but MP just locked up. It continued to make noises in response to key presses, but I couldn't change the display/state to Home or anything else. I then tried to start timeshifting from TV Server config, but that just locked up as well without starting TS. I tried to stop the TVService, but that just got stuck in Stopping state until I closed the TVService.exe process from Task Manager

I've got Comodo 4 installed but the Defence+ and Sandbox sections are disabled and the Firewall has a rule for MP to allow UDP out to any address/port and I didn't get any other popups suggesting MP was trying to connect out some other way and I was watching TV fine before I watched the avi. It's working now as well, so I think it's unlikely to be anything to do with the firewall.

I think I've had this problem before with previous revisions of MP, where trying to start LiveTV after watching an avi causes MP to lockup.
