Looks like you set:

Preset tuner to channel
Leave this blank unless you have an external tuner that is connected to
the tuner input of your card. If so, you will need to specify the preset
channel for the signal (normally 3 or 4).

When you should have just paid attention to the first three words of the
description.

If you're using S-Video or Composite, you /must/ leave the setting blank.

If you are trying to use the tuner with a STB that outputs on channel 4,
you either need to properly set the "Starting Channel" for the video
source or you have an input connections configuration problem (see
http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/264034#264034 ).
