I have a similar environment, eventually got it to work by editing the MySQL tables (with 
phpMyAdmin):

1) ensure the fields networkid and transportid in dtv_multiplex are not null (use dvbSnoop 
to get correct values)
2) set useonairguide to 1 for all channels in the channel table
3) set useeit to 1 in the videosource table
