I'm getting these as well. From a chat on IRC it appears that if you
are using the new (i.e >0.4.x) ivtv drivers the resulting behaviour is
that Myth tries the old method first, resulting in the above error,
followed by the new method, which presumably succeeds. As far as I
know, nothing to worry about.
