Installing Mythtv for the first time -- Grrrr.

1st Problem (as indicated by my mythbackend error messages below)
seems to be that I don't have the correct encoding set up or the
correct codec for my ATI Wonder VE card:

2006-01-11 13:23:35.164 Changing from None to WatchingLiveTV
2006-01-11 13:23:35.224 Unknown video codec
2006-01-11 13:23:35.224 Please go into the TV Settings, Recording Profiles and
2006-01-11 13:23:35.224 setup the four 'Software Encoders' profiles.
2006-01-11 13:23:35.224 Assuming RTjpeg for now.
2006-01-11 13:23:35.224 NVR: Error, unknown audio codec
2006-01-11 13:24:16.996 Changing from WatchingLiveTV to None

2nd problem (as indicated by mythfrontend error messages):
I don't have a remote, so I didn't even try to set up lirc. Is that
the problem?
