Problem with defining channels

[satellite_72]

I just installed Mythbuntu and when i go to run mythtv-setup i get the following error:

2009-01-14 21:25:56.047 New DB connection, total: 1
2009-01-14 21:25:56.100 Connected to database 'mythconverg' at host: localhost

2009-01-14 21:25:56.123 There are no channel sources defined, did you run the setup program?
2009-01-14 21:25:56.123 DataDirect: Deleting temporary files

So the question is how do I define my initial channels?

I am new to linux, so go easy on me, thanks.

Hi,

Firstly you need to define a video source, then add your tuner card and link it to the video source and if you have a DVB-(cst) card the just to a channel scan. If you have am analog card then you need to manually add the channels/frequencies.

Ok, can I do all of that outside of mythtv-setup? That error keeps me getting to the part of mythtv-setup that configures those things.
