You need to do 'make' then 'make install' (make install as root). There is actualy quite a lot of other things you need to do like (probably) recompile your kernel with suport for your TV / video card. Have a look at the mythtv documentation and goodl for myth howtos. Getting the sources from apt is probably better than downloading them. You can then do 'apt-get build-dep mythtv' to get all the dependencies for building myth. In fact using apt package binaryes will save you a lot of hastle.
