I lost network one evening and it crashed XBMC/tvheadend and now PVR doesn't work anymore.
XBMC reports no PVR client is initialised.
I've uninstalled tvheadend and reinstalled via the Add-ons setting to no avail.
When I try and Delete the PVR or the EPG database, XBMC hangs.
How do I force delete/drop the database?

stop xbmc, delete ~/.xbmc/userdata/Database/Epg*.db and ~/.xbmc/userdata/Database/TV*.db

xbmc-pvr [Eden-PVR builds] [now included in mainline XBMC, so no more source link here :)]

Found a problem with PVR? Report it on Trac, under "PVR - core components". Please attach the full debug log.

apologies - forgot to mention I use Openelec.
Is there a way to do that in Openelec as I don't think I can stop XBMC?

you needed to touch some file before killing xbmc, but i completely forgot which one cause i don't use this very often. some OE expert better answer this ;-)
