[mythtv-users] Mythtv snowing in Sydney, Australia

Guys, 

I've had great enjoyment building a RH9 machine based on Jarod's excellent
guide, however, I'm having trouble with the Mythtv channel tuning in Sydney,
Australia. 

I've successfully setup tv_grab_au so the TV guide is working great and
coming up as the overlay when changing channels, however all the channels
are just snow...

Buy using ptune-ui.pl to flip through the channels while I 'cat /dev/video0
> /tmp/test.mpg' I have found all the frequencies of the channels in the
area and I can confirm that my tuner IS working ok. 

It just seems as if Mythtv is using a different set of frequencies to ptune
or they are being translated somehow.

The only thing I can see is different is that ptune calls the frequency
table 'pal-australia' and mythsetup calls it 'australia'. Does this matter?

Please help as I don't want a White Christmas down here in Sydney ;)

Thanks in advance,

Steen Andersson
Sydney
