An update, this seems to be a tuner problem. I dug out a vcr, and
hooked up the composite out on the vcr to the in on the card, and I
was able to get a picture. I verified that my cable connection is
ok by putting the cable into the vcr...I then get a picture from the
cable (no sound though), and I can change channels via the vcr.
Is there anything else that I can try? I've already gone through
all of the tuners in Documentation/video4linux/bttv/CARDLIST with
no promising results...
