Contrary to other posts in this thread, I don't think that mythfilldatabase has anything to do with your problem -- that is the command to download program info. Even if you don't have any program info, you should still be able to pick up a signal. The thing to do is run mythtvsetup, make sure that your capture device is set properly -- for a PVR 350 it should be the MPEG 2 card option (I think it even says PVR 250). Then make sure that the input source is set correctly. This can be confusing as the options are (IIRC) Composite 0-3, S-Video 0-3, and Tuner 0. I could never figure out why there are so many possibilities when there's only 1 composite, 1 S video, and 1 Tuner input. If you run $mythtv it will take you straight to live TV viewing and show you whatever the card is picking up. If all is well, you'll see your TV signal, regardless whether or not you've run mythfilldatabase. I can't tell you anything about specific settings in Australia, but in the US I had to edit the ivtv configuration to define a different tuner type than the default for a PVR 250 (same capture hardware as the 350). I've never had to manually input frequencies.
