Comment:

 This isn't a mythbackend problem, it's a "your init script is starting the
 backend before it has initialized the DVB devices" problem.  The devices
 *are* initialized at boot properly, but by the time you get to being able
 to use mplayer, your distro has long since started Mythbackend too early,
 a condition from which myth is not designed to recover.

 Please start on the mythtv-users mailing list to get assistance in
 changing the order in which your distro starts services.
