Sorry to chime in so late, but while I was looking for a solution to a
different problem I believe I see where your error is.

Here you have set the card to use the analog tuner and not the ATSC
tuner for the HD. This needs to be set up as a dvb tuner
(/dev/dvb/adapter#).

Looks like the card is working here, but notice that your using dvb
which access /dev/dvb/adapter0 where as the ivtv driver is looking at
/dev/video0. I hope this isn't to late.
