Check to make sure that you have the tuner input
correctly associated with a channel source.  If
necessary, delete the tuners and the channel sources
in mythtv-setup and recreate them.

I saw the same problem last night when I was
re-enabling the second tuner on my PVR-500 after
upgrading to the latest stable ivtv driver release.  I
deleted and recreated the entry for the new tuner, and
it worked fine.
