I've been fighting with getting live TV to work (on HD channels only
using an HD5000 DVB card), and have therefore tried building/using
mythtv from the latest SVN (refreshed/rebuilt last night about
midnight... I forget the exact number). After seeing that liveTV did
indeed work MUCH better (no more stuttering), I somehow ended up with a
mythbackend that 'mismatched' with my database... So I dropped the DB
and re-initialized it. Then I went back into mythtv-setup and tried to
rescan my channels... I think I finally figured out that I have to
choose 'no' separator character for HD channels... But even then, I
can't get LiveTV to work... I've chosen channel '91' as my starting
channel, because thats been the best/strongest HD channel in my area
(Rochester, MN). But when I go into Live TV, it doesn't work, and the
mythbackend output says something like this:
2005-11-30 18:58:49.941 MainServer::HandleAnnounce Playback
2005-11-30 18:58:49.941 adding: klb1 as a client (events: 0)
2005-11-30 18:58:49.948 TVRec(1): Changing from None to WatchingLiveTV
2005-11-30 18:58:49.949 TVRec(1) Error: Start channel invalid, setting
to '10' on input DVBInput instead.
2005-11-30 18:58:49.950 DVB#0 ERROR - Could not find dvb tuning

2005-11-30 18:58:49.950 DVB#0 ERROR - Failed to get channel options for

2005-11-30 18:58:49.950 TVRec(1) Error: Failed to set channel to 10.
2005-11-30 18:58:49.951 TVRec(1) Error: Channel: '91' was not found in
the database.
Most likely, your DefaultTVChannel setting is wrong.
Could not start livetv.
2005-11-30 18:58:49.951 TVRec(1) Error: CreateLiveTVRingBuffer() failed
2005-11-30 18:58:49.951 TVRec(1) Error: Failed to create RingBuffer 1
2005-11-30 18:58:49.951 TVRec(1): Changing from WatchingLiveTV to None
Now, I KNOW that the 'default' channel is set to '51' (2nd 'best'
channel in my area)... What am I doing wrong?
