[mythtvnz] NOVA -T 500 only 1 tuner in LiveTV

[Steve V]

Hi Simon,

what do you see when you are watching TV push M scroll down to change input and push the right arrow key?

I get Analog1, Analog2, Freeview1, Freeview2, Freeview2.

Hi Douglas and Steve V,

I have tried what you have mentioned below, but still can't seem to
get the second tuner to work. This is demonstrated the easiest if I
watch live tv, and have something scheduled. When the scheduled
program is recording, live tv automatically changes to the record
channel, and I can't watch a channel on a different multiplex. Using
the M menu option to choose the other tuner doesn't work.

Can you both please e-mail me (off-list) the following tables. This
will help me understand where my configuration is different from
yours. You'll need to add a -p to the command if you have a password
on your mysql root login. Thanks in advance.

mysqldump -u root mythconverg capturecard cardinput channel
dtv_multiplex inputgroup videosource > /tmp/mythtv-tables.sql
