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.
It is. The problem is that using the PVR-x50's from the command line requires you to understand a lot about ivtv and the required settings for your specific card. However, when using a program that knows how ivtv works (i.e. Myth), it takes care of a lot of stuff for you--you set relatively few "human readable" settings and it sets a lot of ivtv-specific settings in response. So, often if you don't get the command-line tests working, your best bet is to continue on as if they had worked and you may be pleasantly surprised when you test it out with Myth. I hope you're pleasantly surprised.

If you really feel you need to know how to use ivtv from the command line, may I suggest you inquire further on the ivtv mailing lists.
