You are absolutely right.  You know, I messed around with just about 
every other possible TV option listed in the man-page, except for that 
one.  The MPlayer man page says that input=0 is the tuner (and the 
default), and so I didn't even consider that it could be wrong...

One question though, if yo don't mind:  Is MPlayer one channel off with 
your setup as well?  I'm getting channel 6 when I select 7, 10 when I 
select 11, etc.  I'm just wondering if there is an option I can set, or 
if this isn't a problem on other FreeBSD releases (I'm using 5.1 right 
now)...  Not that it would be hard to make a script to act as a wrapper 
and fix that.
