Hi Mike,
Have you tried tinkering with the tuner delay setting? It's in the
mythtv-setup util.
I have 1 nova-t card and a nova-td-500, and I had issues where I would miss
programmes. Mine were caused by the fact that the nova-td-500 is
represented as a usb device and Ubuntu would shut it down if it wasn't used
for a period of time. I doubt this is your issue, but I do remember reading
that the tuner-delay setting can help the nova-t cards which IIRC can be
slower to tune.
Worth a quick check?
Thanks,
MG
