That's what I thought I might see. OK, so now, can you run:
mysql -umythtv -p mythconverg -e 'update cardinput set startchan = 3
where cardinputid = 1;'
and then test it out without your startup/change channel script(s). The
startchan shouldn't matter, but ...

They're actually drivers for different capture cards.

Something about your module setup isn't right--and might have an
effect--but I wouldn't think so (especially since you can use ivtvctl to
tune the channel correctly). I haven't played around with ivtv 0.4.x,
though, so I'll defer the questions about fixing it to someone else.
Thanks,
Mike
