I just installed MythTV today, and I'm running RedHat 9.0 and MythTV 
latest CVS version (from this morning)

I can't change channels either. Everything else works fine except that.
I get the error: "QTime::fromString: Parameter out of range."
It pops up a 'overlay' with the time at the top and a empty blue box at 
the bottom for a few seconds, then it fades out. Never changes channel.
I've been all thru the archives, and most people fixed this problem by 
ensuring that "Tuner 0" was selected from the Caputre Card setup.
I've ensured this. For some reason it said "Televison" when I first went 
into it.
So I changed it to Tuner 0 but no help.
I checked the database, doing a select * from capturecards; or whatever, 
and it indeed says Tuner 0 in the database so it's surely set.

Anyone else out there with PVR 250's having trouble changing channels 
with the latest CVS source?
