 Mythtv-Setup has a field on the capture card dialog, which allows to set a
 "tune-channel". This is a "channum" from the channel-table.

 Inside the tuning-code for analog channels (didn't check the DVB), this
 channum string is passed to the Tune(QString) method which tries to tune
 to a channel identifier known in the current frequency tables.

 This obviously fails, because a channel for the channum is not found in
 the list of registered frequencies  for europe-west.

 If this field is non-functional anyway, it should be removed from the GUI
 at least, I configured this rather by accident by navigating through the
 fields of mythtv-setup. But in effect this rendered the inputsource non-
 functional, if one switched to this input on LiveTV, Mythfrontend was dead
 and could only be killed.
