Crash when media selection list is PIN-protected

[prl]

If you use parental protection to protect entry to the media selection list, the UI crashes when you press MEDIA from live TV and enter the correct PIN.

I found this on firmware 20180826beta, but I think it will happen on any reasonably recent firmware, including the current official firmware 20180417.

Replication steps

In MENU>Setup>TV>Parental control, select Enable parental protection, and enter a new pin (enter, and enter again to verify, OK to finish entry).

Then enable Protect screens, and then enable Protect movie list.

GREEN Save, then EXIT back to live TV.

MEDIA, then enter the PIN when asked, followed by OK. Crash.

Can anyone confirm?

Thanks. I think I have a fix, but I need to go back into the code history to see if I can work out what the broken code is supposed to be doing.
