I'm not sure how you run it, maybe you can try in root... try to find the real problem not just to try everything at once. If I can be of any help, I would really like to help you. So for now I have my video driver detected (leadtek WinFast 2000; bttv driver), IR remote configured (still from Leadtek; configured with LIRC), Music share (through samba).
I did not test any input from the TV card to MythTV, test should be coming really soon (I need one cable not related to this), as soon as I can get this one, I will gladly send you my feedback. And the export TV on the ATI Radeon 9200 seems to be quite easy with the proprietary ATI driver, still I'm searching the needed cable. Making a long history short, I need a S-VHS output to RCA.
I hope you'll find a way to find what you miss, I think that arch is a remarkable system to host this type of system cause it's really slow consuming on resources since you install only what you need.

Ok, I am confused. I got the above card and it works great in Windows,
however, Windows is not my preferred desktop.
So, I went on a quest to install it under Arch. Well, getting the ivtv driver
and firmware was not all that hard to do, however, the ivtv version in pacman
must have been outdated because it didn't work ;).
Anyway, now that I have the drivers all setup I can do an mplayer /dev/video0
and change channels with ivtv-tune, however, I am not able to get any of the
common apps to work; like tvtime, kdetv, xawtv or anything. They all complain
about the output of /dev/video0 or other issues. Tvtime says ivtv:invalid
argument.
I cant even get MythTV to work (Using the wiki) due to some missing lib file
(mythtv-setup: error while loading shared libraries: libI810XvMC.so.1) which
I cant find anyware.
Also, I cant recompile MythTV because of a ton of missing perl files or
something along those lines.
Sheesh, all I want to do is watch TV at my desktop without having to issue a
ton of CLI commands to change channels.
Does ANYONE have ANY idea how I can accomplish this?
Thanks!!!
Joe
