Right! However:

# /opt/ivtv/sbin/ivtvctl --version
ivtvctl version 0.4.2 (development revision 3101)
# /opt/ivtv/sbin/ivtvctl -I
check SAA7115 input signal
ioctl: Input detect failed (cannot read SAA regs)
ioctl: Input detect failed (cannot read SAA regs)
ioctl: VIDEO_STATUS = Bad

SAA7115 reg[STATUS#1 - 0x1E] = 177ff8e
 Color Standard (D0-D1): PAL
 White peak loop (D2): Activated
 Gain value for act.lum. (min) (D3): Limited
 Gain value for act.lum. (max) (D4): Not limited
 WIPA-mode slow-time constant (D5): Not activated
 Horizontal frequency (D6): Locked
 Field length (D7): Standard

SAA7115 reg[STATUS#2 - 0x1F] = 177ff8e
 Ready for capture (D0): No
 Macrovision 7.01 (D1): Yes
 MV Colorstripe burst (D2): Yes
 MV Colorstripe burst type 3 (D3): Yes
 Input signal timebase (D4): Non-stable (VCR)
 Field frequency (D5): 50Hz
 H & V loops (D6): Locked
 Interlace (D7): Detected

The reg status look ok now, why is VIDEO_STATUS still bad?

Please note that I use PREFIX=/opt/ivtv and BINDIR=$(PREFIX)/sbin
compiling the utils. To change channels, set quality etc., I use my 
own scripts located in /opt/ivtv/bin. All scripts have the line
   export PATH=/opt/ivtv/sbin:/opt/ivtv/bin:${PATH}
to use the ivtv utils installed in /opt/ivtv/sbin.

I usually never run ivtvctl or any other utility manually,
so I forgot to specify the path and used the SuSE rpm
versions (ivtv-0.3.7c-3) from /usr/bin. Sorry about that!
To eliminate any further path conflicts, I've just removed the
rpm. I don't need it anyways.

Now, despite the path problems, the pvr350 is still broken.
Is there anything I can do/run/test for further diagnosis?

Regards, Walter
