Try running
time tv_find_grabbers
How long does it take to run? I seem to remember I had a problem with a
grabber responding very slowly, and mythtv-setup getting bored and giving
up. I think the timeout is 30 secs?
I bodged mine by making the tv_find_grabbers script more specific. The
grabbers searched for are specified around line 85 (in the version I'm
running). Look for the line
my @grabbers = <$p/tv_grab_*>;
Change it to something more specific; for instance because I'm in the uk I
didn't care about any other grabbers, so I made it
my @grabbers = <$p/tv_grab_uk*>;
