Alek,

Can you provide us with more details on how you've tried to configure
MythTV with your DVB-S card? Are you trying to scan for channels
within MythTV, or are you importing your channels.conf file?

If scanning within MythTV, you need to ensure that you have configured
the LNB (part of capture card setup) before you can successfully scan
for DVB-S channels.

Cheers,
Nick
