 Thanks for the response.

I deleted all capture cards, then re-added my capture card, scanned for channels,  then attempted to watch tv.  

I'm using a Hauppauge PVR-150 and I set it as MPEG-2. I can't tell which version of ivtv is installed or if it is installed. I have no IVTV tools. I installed mythtv from packages and did not install ivtv separately. Looking in my package manager, it doesn't appear that ivtv is installed. Is that possible? In my package manager I only see ivtv source and ivtv utils versions  1.0.2-2. Should I try to manually install ivtv?  
 Look in /var/log/messages for IVTV initialization messages from the driver or do "lsmod" and see if ivtv is loaded.  If not, yes, install it.
