Can someone help?  I've got a buddy who is setting up his HD3000 card in his 
mythbackend.  The backend doesn't seem to be able to tune correctly or 
something.  Since the backend is unable to tune - LiveTV goes blank and then 
returns to the main screen.

BTW - I'm also able to capture ATSC content using getatsc and then play it with 
mplayer without a problem.


dtvsignal shows a strong signal:

htpc mythgame # /usr/local/bin/pcHDTV/dtvsignal /dev/dtv0 39
main: argc 3 argv[1] /dev/dtv0
channel 39
freq*16 = 9940
main: ioctl 1 rtn 0
main: ioctl 2 rtn 0
dtvsignal ver 0.1 - by Jack Kelliher (c) 2002
channel = 39 freq*16 = 9940
 30db       0%         25%         50%         75%        100%

But the backend - shows:
