Create a file called superuser in your config path, in this case /home/tvheadend/config so /home/tvheadend/config/superuser) making sure it's owned by the same user and group that runs tvheadend) and enter.
{
"username": "username",
"password": "password"
}
Restart Tvheadend & you should be able to login correctly without the -C argument now. You could also have added a new user using the wildcard (asterisk) - If you do don't forget to add a password for the user (Configuration -> Users -> Passwords) enter (asterisk) for both username and password.
I generally have this account limited to http streaming only.

Firstly create a new Network (Configuration -> DVB Inputs -> Networks) click the Add button and choose a type, on this dialogue you should see "Pre-defined Muxes:" select the list required.
Once you've done this go back to the adapters page and select the required adapter - Check enable then select your network from the dropdown next to "Networks" and hit save. Tvheadend should then start scanning for services after a short pause (5-10 mins). Click the chevron/down arrow in the bottom right to watch for output. Some will fail some will complete if your provider has NIT enabled Tvheadend will find more muxes and scan those.
Once scanning has completed [you can check the scan queue by looking at the Networks tab - The Scan Q column lists remaining muxes to scan it also lists number of services found. etc] go to the Services tab (Configuration -> DVB Inputs -> Services) this should list all found services. Click on Map All (or highlight the services you want [Ctrl+Click] and click Map selected).
You should then find those services now listed under Configuration -> Channels / EPG.
