Sounds like you've misconfigured your backend.  This error message indicates
that mythbackend thinks that the tuner is in a different machine (another
backend), and it can't contact the backend it thinks should be in charge of
that tuner.  Re-run mythtv-setup and answer "yes' to the first prompt about
clearing capture card settings.  Then
check:

Master Backend IP

It should either be 127.0.0.1 (if you have only a single machine acting as
both frontend & backend) or it should be the IP address of your master
backend as visible on your home network.  Now proceed through the setup
screens and set up your tuner card again.

Also, it helps to have a "correct" network setup.  If your hostname is
"localhost.localdomain" it could cause problems in the future.  Do youself a
favor and make sure you have a "real" hostname.

Thanks JAC. But...
I tried re-running the mythtvsetup after clearing the changes. No succes...
Didn't try the real hostname... But I don't have a clue how I do that.
My machine is running as frontend and backend. I have a home network
(dynamic IP's) with a linux box and an XP box.
