I've literally gone through, what seems like a couple of hundred threads, to find if someone was successful with using the WinTV PVR 150.
I have a dual boot machine with both Window XP SP2 and Fedora Core 3. I've successfully tested and made sure that the cards work perfectly (audio and video wise). Unfortunately I am not able to get VIC to use the sources. In Windows XP I get the usual "terminated in an unusual way" error. In Linux I get waiting for video which seems like an eternity, and when I click on transmit it explodes. I read the log, which was quite useful in linux, it appears not to have passed in the correct parameters to use the card. As it appears to be a V4L widget there were no ways to get IVTV controls to work. Does VIC care if it's has a hardware video encoder? I can use extended video producer and vlc, but VLC appears to allow me to transmit only 1 stream, not the multiple streams I'd like to transmit. And it also requires end users to have the extended video producers aswell (a big zip package because of the inclusion of VLC). I am running out of places to search for information. I would greatly appreciate any information or tips you can send over my way.
