Noob question - never finds a signal.

Hi!
I have a usb TV dongle thing. Haven't really got a clue what I'm doing but I'm trying to get Freeview to appear.
Anyway, when I start up DVB Dream I choose DVB Terrestrial - I should think thats the right option as the ariel comes from the roof and the other options give a hardware error. (I said I was a noob!)
I click OK to everything but when I get to the page about codecs, it objects to mine 'cannot create video decoder filter'.. Thought I'd sort that out later.
Next I guess its time to scan for channels, and thats where I'm having a problem. It'll scan from 474 to 858mhz and never find any.
Am I doing something really obvious wrong?
