[mythtv] DVBInput starting channel

[Piers Kittel]

I think you need to change the starting channel in mythtv-setup - go to 
the card section, select the cards adn there should be an entry saying 
"Start up channel" - select a valid startup channel that exists in the 
database that links to the DVB card - such as for my setup, I've got a 
PVR350 tuner, and a DVB tuner, the former has channels 1 to 30 bound to 
that, and the DVB tuner has channels 1001 to 1100 (whatever) bound to 
that, so I set the PVR tuner's startup channel to 1, and the DVB tuner 
startup channel to 1001.

Hope this helps!

Cheers - Piers
