Can any one help I have purchased a USB 2.0 DVB-T HDTV TV Tuner Recorder & Receiver that I would like to interface with opencv. The device works with provided software but would like to pull the live video frames into opencv. Some one told me mythtv can help I am programming in python and c++ on lunix.

I see your question over at stackoverflow, also the suggestion to look at MythTV, but I'm not sure why someone suggested that.
The basic pipeline to get a DVB TV Signal into OpenCV should be (assuming your device is supported by the LinuxTV DVB drivers) Information on how each step works in detail should be available at the support channels of the corresponding project. (LinuxTV for tuning and filtering, FFmpeg for stream selection and decoding, OpenCV for getting the frames from FFmpeg into OpenCV) I chose FFmpeg because it appears to come integrated with OpenCV already.
