Everyone's a smurf with 0.25 frontend

My main .25 backend/frontend work fine, but with the frontend on my new
Linux Mint 12 install, everyone is blue (Recordings and Live TV). Tried
making an adjustment with "F" during playback, but that's not working.

If I stream a recording in VLC, everything looks great.

Looks like its a profile issue. Will experiment to see if one works well
for both sides of the tuner (HVR-1600).

Your Playback Picture Controls (specifically the color/hue adjustment)
is broken. Hit F in playback (recording or Live TV) and change the
color control to 50% (might have to use F multiple times).

Did that (mentioned in post), but it did not fix it. I am experimenting
with different profiles to see if that fixes things. So far I managed to
get rid of the blue, but my analog side of the tuner is not happy with
some profile choices. Trying to find one that works all-around.

It's almost definitely the problem, and you'll need one of the fixes
that's going in to either correct the defaults for your card, or if
yours is one for which we're disabling the picture controls, to disable
the controls. See the commits list for the status of those changes (or
for the patches themselves).

Note that this issue was corrected last night on current master.

I'm hoping this will be backported to fixes/0.25 soon
