Wow, people like to do things the hard way.

>If you are in USA/Canada, there is no need to add channels by hand for the PVR-500.  
>You don't need to scan, either.  Simply setup a lineup at schedulesdirect, and pull it with mythfilldatabase.
>I'm pretty sure that this is covered well in the documentation. 

Did that, nothing shows up and I don't believe it's covered or even well covered in the wiki.
Where do you see anything about scanning channels in the wiki?

http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Hauppauge_PVR-500

There is only a tiny section on how to configure the card.

  mythtv-setup, define 2 x PVR150

Select new Capture Card and configure the first card as a hardware MPEG-2 device like the PVR150 (Remember the PVR-500 is dual PVR-150's so you will need to configure two capture cards. The two cards will have the same tuner (which may be called tuner0 or tuner1, depending on your version of mythtv), but different devices (e.g. /dev/video0 and /dev/video1).


That ain't much to someone new to it like me.
