I went back and took a closer look at what was going on with my system. It turns out that changing channels wasn't working on live tv. A little bit of googling turned up the need for a specific option for the driver (tuner=43 for the winfast tv 2000 xp).

Thanks for your help.

I went back and took a look at my settings, which are set correctly (I believe).

I've got a capture card listed (video0: Video for Linux)
I've got a video source listed (comcast) with channel and program information loaded in the database
On the input connections screen the Television input is set to Comcast

here is what the mythbacked spit out during a recent test record

2005-12-03 18:56:02.469 Started recording "12 (TBS)" on channel: 1012 on cardid: 1, sourceid 1 2005-12-03 18:56:02.498 Channel(/dev/video0)::TuneToFrequence(): Error -1 while setting frequency (v2): Invalid argument
2005-12-03 18:56:02.720 Changing from None to RecordingOnly
strange error flushing buffer ...
2005-12-03 18:57:00.005 Finished recording 12 (TBS) on channel: 1012
2005-12-03 18:57:00.041 Changing from RecordingOnly to None

Thanks again for your help on this

I've scheduled a few recordings using both mythweb and mythfrontend and the channel is not being changed before starting the recording. Channel changing with live tv works fine. I'm using a Winfast 2000 XP (not the greatest I know, but it works). Has anyone seen this before. Thanks for any help you guys can give



Set up your inputs in mythtv-setup. http://mythtv.org/docs/mythtv-HOWTO-9.html
