All,

I think i have successfully installed mythtv but i still can't switch
channels. The TV window always shows the latest tuned channel
I have imported the channel data from my  ~.xawtv file with the command
: mythfilldatabase --xawchannels /dev/video0 /root/.xawtv
The database looks like this :

mysql> Select * from channel;
+--------+---------+----------+---------------------+---------------------+-------------------------------------+----------+--------------+---------------------+----------+------------+--------+

I have filled in E9 which is VT4 for the default startup channel when
running the setup script.
But when i try to switch channels i receive the following error from the
backend :

root at desk:/tmp/mythtv-0.8/setup# mythbackend

Doe anybody has experienced this problem too or know how to fix it.
I have red the previous threads about this issue and tried everything
out but with no success.

Thanx in advance for the help.

Nico
