I somehow messed up my working KnoppMyth install, and I reinstalled to try
to corect the problem.

However, when I go to "watch live TV" all I get is a black screen that I
can't seem to exit from. Here is the rail of the logfile:


QSettings::sync: filename is null/empty
Starting up as the master server.
QSettings: error creating /.qt
QSettings::sync: filename is null/empty
 is defined, but isn't attached to a cardinput.

Unknown video codec: open: No such device
audio volume set to '65535'

Can anyone sugets what I can do to fix this, without reinstalling yet
again?
