Hi MythTV users,
 
I am new to MythTV and now this list.  I had in mind for sometime to
setup a MythTV server (with frontend) and a couple of other frontends
around the house.  So a couple of weeks ago I got myself a Athlon box
with PVR-500 and nVidia GeForce 6600 card (my big TV can take DVI) and
250GB Sata2 drive.
 
I downloaded Knoppmyth R5C7 and started the install process.  After
working through the issues of getting the sata drive to work and
obtaining a listings.xml (sydog) I have struck a snag.
I can't get the mythtv app to tune a station.  I just get static.  But
the interesting thing is that mplayer works fine on both /video0 and
/video1.  After spending a couple of nights looking through the lists, I
can't find the answer.
 
Can anybody help?
 
I'm still using a monitor instead of TV, and haven't got the MCEUSB
remote (RC6) that came with the PVR-500 working yet, but have seen list
help for these.
 
Regards
Simon
