Hanging on cable guide load w/ HDHomeRun PVR

FiretTV 2
HDHomeRun PVR
set up to start in TV [probably invoked first time this morning]

The channel surf page comes up with channels on left, still picture on right, info on bottom.
A dialog pops up offering to Cancel guide load, then disappears in a couple seconds
A status bubble pops up 'loading guide' with progress bar and some sort of channel count
progress gets to about 98% and freezes
MrMc locks up, no remote keys except the Home key work
If I manage to cancel in time the app performs as expected, otherwise I have to Home key to FireTV top menu

This is new, I installed last night and it did not have any issues. This morning it started the behavior above. I intend the FireTV with MrMc to replace my cable box. This behavior will bring about a spousal veto.

I can recheck this tonight.
