It still seems like mythtvsetup isn't setup properly, and I keep wanting
to come back to it. I too had a similar problem with this because of how
MythTVSetup works.
The tuner must first be setup in the Input settings
Second, your cable type must be setup in the Video Sources screen
Finally, you have to link the two settings together in the Input Settings.
In the input settings, you can select the input type (Cable, Antenna,
DVB, etc) and then when you link the settings together in the Input
Settings, you should select the same type.
If you aren't able to figure it out, I should be able to help you
further when I get home from work... most of this is coming off the top
of my head ATM.
More information can be found here regarding this.

You can also check your channel settings there. Let me know! Good luck!

Try populating the database with Channel Information.
I have already done that. The documentation is not entirely clear on how
to set the channel information, but I used ptune.pl to first dump a
list of PAL europe-west channels, and then using it to set each and
every channel and test them with mplayer /dev/video0. I arrived at this
list, which works well with mplayer:
SE19 NRK 1
E8 NRK 2
E10 TV 2
SE11 TV Norge
E5 TV Budstikka (ABTV)
SE15 TV 3
SE16 TV 4
E7 SVT 1
E11 SVT 2
SE8 Discovery
SE7 Cartoon Network
SE17 Star / Showtime
SE10 Info
SE14 Disney Channel
SE20 BBC World
SE13 The Voice
SE18 Eurosport
SE9 Animal Planet
This is part of what mythfilldatabase has entered into mysql:

14 rows in set (0.00 sec)
Now, is there something wrong here?
WAF was low until I got my box up as well. It'll be worth it once you
get it going.
Nice to hear :)
I can of course get away with one shell script for each channel, like
this:
#! /bin/bash
# BBC World
ptune.pl SE20
mplayer -fs /dev/video0
but I figure that Myth will get a better WAF rating.
