[mythtv-users] configuration problem: Couldn't find any channels in the database

[Joerg Beyer]

Hi,

I am setting up mythtv and I dont understand how to setup the channels.
I get mythtv running, but cant switch channels. The backend gives me
this error message:

I think, that I got the EPG scan wrong. I use a Hauppauge WinTV PVR,
that is a grabber for analog TV.

Where could I read, what I have to do?


   thanks in advance
