Give a try with RTP: in the tuner setup page in MythTv setup.
 192.168.180.1-RTP.0 / 192.168.180.1-RTP.1 / etc...

I know that MythTV is moving away from setting an InfiniTV as a local
device and will use the RTP (Real-time Transport Protocol) that the devices
use natively.  Or something like that, Im still picking up on things.

Hope that helps.

Kris.
