If you cannot see the DVB tuners in MythTV setup then I would guess you 
have a problem with driver and/or firmware. First thing I would do is

dmesg | grep -iE 'tda|saa'

and you should get many lines output with things like this:

CORE saa7164[0]: subsystem: 0070:8980, board: Hauppauge WinTV-HVR2200 
[card=4,autodetected]
DVB: registering adapter 0 frontend 0 (NXP TDA10048HN DVB-T)...

This is just a couple of lines from the output on my machine. Should be 
lots more about saa7164 and tda18271 and tda10048.

Also try "modinfo saa7164" and you should get info about the saa7164 
driver and it's dependencies.

If you get nothing or error messages then we can dig further to see 
what's missing or broken.
