Here is the output from mplayer. Still seems to be complaining about codecs but seems to resolve the problem. Could my problem be codec related? I saw codec errors in the backend log.

Output from mplayer:

Playing /dev/video0.
MPEG-PS file format detected.
VIDEO:  MPEG2  480x480  (aspect 2)  29.970 fps  8000.0 kbps (1000.0 kbyte/s)

Could not find matching colorspace - retrying with -vf scale...
Opening video filter: [scale]
The selected video_out device is incompatible with this codec.
Try adding the scale filter, e.g. -vf spp,scale instead of -vf spp.
VDecoder init failed :(

This looks unusual


Can you do a mplayer /dev/v4l/video0 and see if you get output.

if /dev/v4/video0 does not exist use /dev/video0

Also I do see one thing interesting in the OP. The channels myth is
trying to change to are 1068 and 1000 for an analog tuner. That has to
be wrong.
