[mythtv-users] Can't access PVR-350 after upgrading to 0.21

   Yeah, I've had that since the get-go years ago.  Never been a 
problem;  I tried reseting both to '101' but it didn't affect anything.

   I don't see that preventing it from changing channels.  It's like the 
channels became detached from the card somehow, as it didn't run the 
channel-change script.  All *looked* OK in setup, and also in the SQL 
from what I could follow.

   Thanks for the tip;  I'll remember that.  ‘Unfortunately’, I've 
reverted back now so I don't have what the d/b looked like.

   Hang on ...

    OK, this, at least, is what I've got *now* (0.20.2), which I guess 
is actually going to be the same:
