have you scanned channels in mythtv-setup? Mythtv is a separate setup 
from the azap, etc.
Running azap (or tzap) to obtain channels.conf is great to make sure you 
have the card working and getting the right channels for your location. 
But, setting up the channels in mythtv requires scanning in mythtv-setup.
