[mythtv-users] DVB channels unwatchable?

Hello all,

Recently received my new DVB card and have put it in a different 
computer to test it before putting it in my actual backend, so I've got 
2 backends - one master containing my PVR350 card, one slave containing 
my Nova-T card.  Have confirmed that the Nova-T card works fine under 
Linux using tzap/xine and kaffiene.  I have set up mythtv with the new 
card, got it to scan and add in all channels, but the channels are 
unwatchable, such as I set up BBC1 on the DVB card to channel 2001, and 
when I type in "2001" then enter, it doesn't change, and the channel 
up/down buttons bypasses the DVB card completely even tho the DVB 
channels are in the EPG (abelit that all channels are blank apart from 
BBC1).  When I start the backend the DVB card is in, I get:

desire:/home/piers# mythbackend
Running as a slave backend.

I have run mythfilldatabase but it doesn't pull in program info for the 
DVB card apart from BBC1...?

What am I doing wrong here...?

Thanks very much for your help in advance!

Cheers - Piers
