This just in... it looks like it was a signal level problem, compounded by
the 6 Eth being a little flaky.
I reduced the number of splitters etc. in the house down to just the cable
modem, the TV in the bedroom, and the 6 Eth, with the 6 Eth and the TV
being behind an amp. That seems to have brought the signal level up enough
that things are working.
The bit about the 6 Eth being flaky is that it was pretty much stuck at a
-48 dBmV signal level until I reset it, which was masking the need for more
signal. Once I rebooted it, it went to more reasonable (but still low)
levels.
Why I could capture via VLC is a mystery to me.
I've watched a few minutes of live TV, but have yet to do a real recording.
I'll post in the morning with the results of the things it tries to record
over night.
