I can't get my pchdtv3000 to work with Myth: I am not sure how to set
up the channels properly (I think). i can capture hidef video with
both the dvb and atsc drivers, so the card works.

When I start the backend I get

2005-07-01 08:57:53.353 DVB#0 DVB SI Table Parser Started
2005-07-01 08:57:53.354 DVB#0 Using DVB card 0, with frontend pcHDTV
HD3000 HDTV.

2005-07-01 08:57:53.358 DVB#0 ERROR - Could not find dvb tuning
parameters for transport 0
2005-07-01 08:57:53.359 DVB#0 ERROR - Failed to get channel options
for channel 4_1.

In mythtv-setup, I've mapped my /dev/video32 to the OTA lineup i set
up in zaptoit. In the channel setup, I run the Scan and it seems to
find the right channels. I set the input to US BCAST. I tried changing
the 4_1 above to 41 (and back). In my database I have:

+--------+---------+--------+----------+----------+----------------+------+----------+--------------+---------

I have looked in the pchdtv forums, gossamer, etc... this seems to
just work for most people, any urls that explain how to do this that i
might not have stumbled across yet would be appreciated.
