thanks for the feedback.

In fact, this is the wanted behaviour. The thought behind this is 
when you manually select the EyeTV behaviour, you'll also want to 
choose a channel or recording right after, whereas if it is 
automatically selected in the background by RB, this does not happen.

I'll think about it, though. The problem here clearly is "media 
center usage" vs. "EyeTV standalone usage".
