I only use DVB-T and I'm using mythtv's autobuild updates for 0.23.  It
is possible that I could have some problems with it that haven't been
noticed yet since it's mainly using the Nova-td (I have recorded off all
multiplexes at once though) 
 
If you delete/re-add the card in mythsetup, only setting up DVB-T and
without rebooting does it make any difference?  Any other tv cards
present?
