[18:32] <qwebirc80888> First of all, is it considered a faux pas to lob your HTPC out the window after working with it with no headway for three hours?
[18:33] <qwebirc80888> 'cause I'm getting close to it.
[18:34] <rhpot1991> qwebirc80888: it would be much more helpful for all if you would state your problems
[18:35] <qwebirc80888> Yeah, that was my second of all.
[18:36] <qwebirc80888> Okay, I'm running a p4 system, 512 megs of . . .
[18:36] <qwebirc80888> 512 megs of ram, an MX4000, and my capture card is a Philips SAA7135
[18:38] <qwebirc80888> When I hop into the front end and select watch TV, it gives me a "please wait," then hops back into the front end home.
[18:39] <qwebirc80888> I hop into the back end and try to configure the video source, I can't find any channels when I search under TV. Any other source and it crashe
[18:44] <qwebirc80888> Not super helpful, huh?
[18:46] <rhpot1991> sounds like an issue with your tuner card, and I'm unfamiliar with that card sorry
[18:46] <rhpot1991> you should try the forums, and check out info on that card on the mythtv wiki

[18:47] <rhpot1991> if you check your logs when you try to watch tv there should be something useful in there, but it seems that you don't have your card fully setup yet
