Karl,

Many thanks for the reply.

I got mythfilldatabase working using the --manual option. However, I
don't know all the channel numbers/names so I'll need to find a source
of these. Mythfilldatabase was quite happy grabbing the tv_grab_fr
listings, it just threw a bit of a wobble with the tv_grab_uk_rt
listings. Despite many hours trawling various forums I'm still littel
the wiser as to how it actually works.

The lircrc file I've downloaded is a good start, I just need to re-map
the cursor buttons.

Now I need to know how to tune the PVR 350, presumably from mythsetup,
and how to get tv output from the PVR, not just the graphics card.

Any help much appreciated.
