Thanks much for all the help. I found out what it was. It's really silly. Let me break it down:
I. I went from bt878 card to ivtv card (this is where it started.) 2. Had to change Television to Tuner 0 for Capture Card Settings. 3. Live TV works, but only one channel. I read the backend output and it told me it couldn't find "Television" 4. Have to change Television to Tuner 0 for "Video Sources" Problem with that is there wasn't a Tuner 0. I had to rebuild my database. 5. Of course after I did that, I still couldn't change channels because there were none to change to. I had to run mythfilldatabase after reconfiguring everything again. Finally, I can watch LiveTV and I'm changing channels. Wonderful. Much thanks for all the help, Leo Przybylski > Michael T.
