for some reason the headers that came with my kernel wouldn't allow Myth or 
Mplayer to access the card (azap worked fine). So I downloaded the driver 
from pchdtv.com. I figured, well, I know the card and driver works, its just 
programs I'm compiling so maybe the header files with this kernel are fubar. 
I checked and the header files were different so I copied the newer driver 
headers over the ones that came with the kernel, recompiled mplayer and it 
worked, so I recompiled mythtv and it worked. problem solved!
