First, can you do a channel scan with mythtv-setup? If that works then you are almost done.
In mythfrontend, select the program guide, select a channel, press M, select "Watch this channel" and then it should work.
Selecting "Watch TV" tries to select the last channel watched and on a fresh installation that is not always available. This is something I might fix one of these days....

I did a side-by-side diff you my settings and yours. The one that stands out to me
is the InputName, see !!! below. [I removed most of the obvious differences that
don't matter (like HostName, CardId number etc.)].

I had already done a channel scan and it even recorded. "Input 1" and "Input 2" were the default name I guess I can try and remove the spaces.

[penguinjeff]

Removing the spaces allowed the frontend to work.

[bill6502]

To be clear: InputName, not DisplayName. I wouldn't worry about spaces in the DisplayName.

I was concerned about MPEG2TS where yours is None. It's set in Input connections.

[penguinjeff]

It was the display name that was screwing it up. What is the difference between having InputName as MPEG2TS and None what will it do differently?

[kmdewaal]

The "Input Name" does not do anything for HDHomeRun tuners, it does not matter if it is None or MPEGTS. For the DVB tuners, found in /dev/dvb/*/*, the database field "inputname" is used to store the delivery system, e.g. "DVB-T2" or "DVB-S" and that does matter.

The "Display name" should be unique in the last 2 characters, depending on the theme used, but otherwise it should not matter. If it does matter then that is a bug. You could try putting the space back in the "Input 1" name and check if the frontend fails again.

[penguinjeff]

Sounds like a bug then I will confirm it and submit it if it is reproducible. Thank you.
