[mythtv-users] answer: Hauppauge 150 works direct from /dev/video0, fails from myth

[Kurt Yoder]

D'oh!

When I originally ran myth-setup, I had not picked a hauppauge card.  
I changed this later, but I didn't restart mythbackend. Once I  
restarted mythbackend, everything started working normally.

Sorry for the noise...
