OK, I'll work on getting mythfilldatabase working properly. I cannot help but think that using ptune-ui and mplayer would be completely independent of what is in the MythTV database though.
Am I not correct in thinking that the ptune-ui script should be setting the channel on the tuner? I choose PAL and the Australia frequency table in ptune-ui. Is that not enough? I'm not talking about even running mythfrontend yet but rather doing the testing steps as outlined in Jarod's guide: " # /usr/lib/ivtv/ptune-ui.pl & # mplayer -vo xv /dev/video0 Use the ptune UI to change channels, frequency tables, TV standard, etc., as necessary, until you find a working channel. .....................

Well, you've answered your own question then. You need mythfilldatabase to set the channels up so the hardware knows what changing the channel does/means. Go concentrate on your favorite howto source for mythfilldatabase and once you get that running clean, you should be all set. You've done the hardest part, getting the 350 output working. The rest should be simple.
