I think I found something.

I set --verbose=all on the backend and found the following message  
after digging trhough the logs:

2006-05-05 17:41:34.975 ChannelBase: Could not find input: Tuner 0 on  
card when setting channel 1
2006-05-05 17:41:34.976 TVRec(1) Error: Failed to set channel to 1.  
Reverting to kState_None

Now, when running mythtv-setup I don't see any mentions of "Tuner 0",  
everything is now "Tuner 1" (I actually deleted the whole setup and  
did it again from the start). I assume that "Tuner 0" comes from  
SOMEwhere in the database. Any ideas where it might be? I could do a  
manual update if I only knew which table to look at.

Thanks,
-Mario
