It sounds like you're confusing the ''tunechan'' and ''startchan'' fields.
The ''startchan'' field is the spinbox, populated by channels defined in
your database, and specifies the first channel that MythTV tries to access
when opening LiveTV. The ''tunechan'' is the text edit box used to pre-
tune an RF input when capturing from an external device with an external
channel changer.
The field wants a physical channel number. Not a logical channum. Since
there are (nearly) no consumer devices capable of outputting a DVB signal,
there would never be any reason for a DVB input to have this option. Your
verbiage seems to indicate that you are improperly using the ''tunechan''
field, and this is nothing but a configuration error.
