[mythtv-users] Still tearing my hair out with Myth 0.21 on Fedora 11

[Chris Jones]

I am still having huge problems with MythTV 0.21 on Fedora 11. I have now
reinstalled Myth (again), and reinstalled my Hauppage HVR1300  as a DVB DTV
capture card (v3.x). I have set up a video source called Freeview using the
UK Radio Times xmltv grabber using Europe-west frequency table. Then I ran
the script given me by Nick Morrott some days ago which grabs the xml data
from tv_grab_uk_rt and puts it into a file I have called freeview.xmltv.
Then I run mythfilldatabase using -file 1 ~/freeview.xmltv. All this works
fine. I then have to manually edit the channel table with three selected
channel numbers for BBC1 BBC2 and BBC News using the generally accepted
numbers (1, 2, and 80).

 

Then when I try to set up a program record, on every occasion it errors -
the latest occurrence generated the following log output:-

The problem starts with the third line down where it complains about
CheckChannel failing, and then in the following line it cannot initialise
the multiplex options. What causes this? I have googled for about  2 hours
now and cannot find ANYTHING remotely sensible that I should be doing to
correct this error.
