I've had this working on earlier ivtv versions but naturally I can't
recall which version was working. :)

I have only one PVR-500MCE in my system.  I can't seem to get any data
at all from /dev/video1-- when I do a

dd if=/dev/video1 of=/tmp/bah

I can let it run for minutes at a time and I will get 0 bytes. Running the same command for a few seconds on /dev/video0 gives 10MB of MPEG video.

My /etc/modprobe.d/ivtv looks like:

$ cat /etc/modprobe.d/ivtv
alias char-major-81 videodev
alias char-major-81-0 ivtv
alias char-major-81-1 ivtv

I've attached the output of dmesg when I do a modprobe, and later (with
ivtv_debug=511) when I do the dd.  Although the version I'm using in
those logs is 0.3.9, I find the same result with 0.3.8 and 0.3.7k.

Any clues and/or help would be most welcome.

I've got the exact same model of PVR-500 (D492) and have no problems. My only difference that I can tell from the dmesg log is in the version of ivtv-fw-enc.bin (I'm using the 0x02040011 version).

Your module loading order is a little different, as my tda9887 loads quite a bit later in the ivtv initialization, but I doubt thats an issue. Any kernel versions of modules loading instead of ivtv ones?

I'm not a developer, so the ivtv debug messages are not something that I can help with.
