OK. I will try with other happauge config files but before that I 
probably have to fix watching live tv, cuz I can't ANYMORE!!! >:o I had 
connected my video camera and the happauge device changed to /dev/video1 
from /dev/video0. So I disconnected the video cam and restarted the 
computer and mythtv and since then have not been able to watch livetv. I 
have even deleted all sources....did a mythfilldatabase and still no 
luck. When I try to watch live tv the screen flickers and comes back to 
the main frontend. The permissions to the recordings folder has not 
changed! ivtv-tune -c 3 followed by mplayer /dev/video0 work just 
fine!!Any clue as to what is happening.Attached is what I see when I 
start from the terminal!
