Well you need to know what capture card you have, set it up in linux 
then setup the card in mythtv. Do you know what TV Card hardware you have?

I have a pvr-350 so I'll use that as an example. In Jarod's guide 
section 10 is how to setup the capture card. With my card's tuner is on 
/dev/video0.

I assume you are stuck on "2. Capture cards" (and have already done 
General). You would choose "(New capture card)", select the Card type 
(mine would be "MPEG-2 encoder card (PVR-x50, PVR-500)". The video 
device would be "/dev/video0" (either already there or you can type in 
what is needed) and choose the Default input needed from the list (Tuner 1).

If you can let us know what hardware you have we can get you better 
directions or if I'm looking at the wrong part.
