Hi again.

I have a Hauppauge Nova-t card.

And i had no luck with mplayer it missing som ./config file so it wont 
start.
Will try again when i get home.
Ang i guess that tzap works but i dont remember the exact output.

And if i try the "Watch TV" everything locks.
And I have to reboot the computer .

My Scan finds lots of channels.
But i suspect that i does something wrong  when i type in the channel 
info in mythtv.
