DVB & mythconverg.cardinput.startchan

Myth : 0.18.1.20050523-1

Issue that's been around since 0.17. A frontend gets confused and
leaving an empty value in mythconverg.cardinput.startchan

>From that point on, the capture card is un-usable for LiveTV. Anything
scheduled works fine, but any attempts at liveTV fail. until you go
force the value in SQL back to something other than NULL, and
stop/start the backend.


Start with this:

mysql> select cardinputid,cardid,tunechan,startchan from cardinput;
+-------------+--------+----------+-----------+
| cardinputid | cardid | tunechan | startchan |
+-------------+--------+----------+-----------+
| 1 | 1 | 15 | 15 |
| 2 | 2 | 15_1 | 15_1 |
| 3 | 3 | 15_1 | 15_1 |
+-------------+--------+----------+-----------+
3 rows in set (0.00 sec)


Choose "LIVETV" on a frontend that is somehow confused about what
LiveTV means (and this issue stays after stop/start frontend. The
frontend will black screen then back to the menu.

Now you have:

mysql> select cardinputid,cardid,tunechan,startchan from cardinput;
+-------------+--------+----------+-----------+
| cardinputid | cardid | tunechan | startchan |
+-------------+--------+----------+-----------+
| 1 | 1 | 15 | 15 |
| 2 | 2 | 15_1 | 15_1 |
| 3 | 3 | 15_1 | |
+-------------+--------+----------+-----------+
3 rows in set (0.00 sec)

Notice the absence of "startchan"

some how, some way, any value other than a numeric, or numeric_numeric
should be invalid, and take "tunechan" instead.

Any word on this? I've been through bugtraq and didn't find anything
that looked like this.
