Hi all, This may be slightly OT as it is not directly a Freevo problem. Hoping some experience on the list will provide the answer.
I have setup many systems with the DVICO dual head DVB-T card, and they 'just worked'. The most recent one though, is behaving strangely. I suspect there is a permissions or a udev problem behind it, but cannot be sure. DMESG shows both heads as loading up nicely, and /dev/dvb is populated with both adapters. However, to illustrate the problem with tzap; scan -a /dev/dvb/adapter0 config --- works for the first head (PCI) scan -a 0 config --- also works for the first head (PCI) scan -a /dev/dvb/adapter1 config --- works for the second head (USB) scan -a 1 config --- does not work for the second heah (USB) !!! I suspect that whatever allows you to use the -a option with the device number rather than /dev/ location is what my problem is. When involking the individual cards you would do it as such : mplayer dvb://[EMAIL PROTECTED] and clearly this will work for the first adapter, but not the second (dvb_streaming_read, attempt N. 6 failed with errno 0 when reading 2048 bytes ... etc). If this rings a bell to anyone that can suggest how to fix it, I would most appreciative. Otherwise Freevo 1.7.2 appears to be using the dual head setup very effectively without having to modify tvguide.py or recordserver.py as I have had to do in the past.
