I use mythtv 0.17 and it works fine, presumably it should also work in 0.18. The units I use are as follows: - Frequency is in Khz, so for eg 10773MHz is entered as 10773000 - Symbol rate in kSym/sec, so 27500 is entered as 27500000 These work very well for me on three different satellites. > If I try and configure channels manually, using the channel editor, I > get no options regarding DVB stuff - I enter the channel number (is > this number important?) and the name, and the video source.

I don't think you can manually specify DVB options - you have to use the automatic scanning utilities. BB
