I was having problem when I update to ivtv 0.4.x from 0.3.x.   I think I
ended up need to remove and recreate my channel line up setting in
mythtv-setup.   (But I am not using Dish, but I use the tuner to tune
channel. )    Have you tried to remove and recreate everything inside
mythtv-setup (not just the capture card setting)?   I think somehow the
internal channel number in ivtv has change so the channel database
doesn't know how to change to right channel.  BTW, in my case, there
were error message in mythbackend.log  when the channel change happen.
Do you check your mythbackend log?
