I have FINALLY seen a picture from my hd-2000 card, and now need to
get it working 'better'

(1) The sound appears to come in little 'chunks' with spaces between
them... WHAT should the audio be set to?  (Ill assume that an incorrect
setting is the problem)

(2) The video comes up for about 30sec, and then I drop back to the (previous) MythTV screen (where I can choose 'Watch TV'), related to this (I assume) is the message in the messages coming out of mythfrontend

Describe your setup a little more. Processor, video card (& driver version), ALSA vs. OSS audio, separate vs. combined frontend/backend, what kind of network between them, which one holds the HD-2000, version of MythTV, etc.

If you use getatsc to capture a stream, can you play it back with MPlayer? How much free CPU do you have while playing back?

(3) When I had the PVR-250 card installed, when I had a picture on the
screen (ok, monitor) I could hit the 'M' key and bring up a menu, or I could
hit numeric keys to change channels.  with the pcHDTV card installed I can
do neither.  What gives?

When Mythfrontend is frozen waiting for data from the recorder, it becomes unresponsive. This is a longstanding problem. What do your signal levels look like?

(4) I CANT change channels within MythTV. The only way I can set a channel
is to run dtvsignal once mythfrontend is up. And YES the 'Video Source' screen is set to 'us-bcast'. It almost feels like one program knows how
to talk to the tuner and the other doesnt. Any ideas???

Did you go through and set your freqid field in the database for each HD channel you get? Are there channels you *don't* get in your database?

Is there anything useful in your backend log, or printed out from the frontend? Try running backend with '--verbose channel,record' and frontend with '--verbose playback' and you might get some good diagnostics.
