Hi, With the seamingly great support for DVB in mythtv, I decided to give it a try this week-end. On a Gentoo system I have got it all working (great ebuild!), apart from the fact that I cannot get any picture. If I select to view TV, I only get 10 seconds of black screen, and then back to the menu. I also do not have any working xml-tv program list.
I have succeded in searching all free channels (the other I will deal with later) from mythtv-setup on my DVB-T card. I have also selected the appropriate xml-tv script, and downloaded some channels. I have then used "mythfilldatabase --manual". It seams that I have made some mistakes in this area (channel list in database?), since mythbackend says; (Adapter #0 is the one I'm concentrating on righ now, DVB-T) (this after programming a manual recording); [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ # mythbackend -v channel 2005-07-03 16:56:57.191 New DB connection, total: 1 Starting up as the master server. 2005-07-03 16:56:57.351 New DB connection, total: 2 2005-07-03 16:56:57.386 DVB#1 DVB SI Table Parser Started 2005-07-03 16:56:57.404 DVB#1 ERROR - Opening DVB frontend device failed.

Now, the thing is that I don't know anything on how to operate mysql, so I'm lost right now... Any suggestions on how to continue, or a pointer on how this stuff works are greatly welcome! - Micael
