This shouldn't be the problem if you can tune with ivtv utilities.  It's 
probably your Myth config.

BTW, your email client makes a mess of the mail by not properly quoting 
the message.  I fixed the quoting (and moved your top post to the bottom).

And, when using the digest, please fix the subject before sending 
because "[mythtv-users] RE: SPAM LOW: mythtv-users Digest, Vol 34, Issue 
195" doesn't help anyone--especially since by your using the digest, 
your responses are guaranteed to be threaded incorrectly.  By fixing the 
subject, you allow archives, etc. to at least say, "Possibly in thread" 
or something.  Thanks.
