There was some good advice on Nova-Ts in the archives - fairly easy to
search for. Also easy to find on google.

Do you have good DVB reception?
This is a good link for UK digital TV - what cable to use from the
aerial etc...

I currently have usually bad DVB reception (upgrading the aerial wire
next week) - and Mythbackend sometimes has problems 'cos it can't sync.
It's also impossible to say "don't record on this input" so as soon as
you get xmltv going it will schedule for it and you'll have to delete
shows by hand.
