I apologize if this issue is off-topic for this list. However, the user list
seems pretty low volume, and I haven't had any response from my original post.
Here is that original post:
I'm having trouble with my pvr-150 mce card. The problem is that I can't
get capture working at all, though I seem to be able to tune the card,
set channels, etc. And ivtvctl seems to detect a signal, which
disappears when I disconnect the input cable. So I know something is
working, but it is not getting through.
I'm running Ubuntu Dapper Drake:

Linux copernicus 2.6.15-18-386 #1 PREEMPT Thu Mar 9 14:41:49 UTC 2006

IVTV version 0.4-0.4.3 apt-gotten from
deb http://www.hellion.org.uk/debian sid main
deb-src http://www.hellion.org.uk/debian sid main
I've read the warnings to make sure the device is properly tuned and the
input device set. I've tried all the inputs, 0-4, thus:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# ivtvctl -p 0
ioctl VIDIOC_S_INPUT ok
Video input set to 0
I tune it:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# ivtv-tune -c34
/dev/video0: 283.250 MHz (Signal Detected)
cat /dev/video0 > capture.mpg results in an empty file, for each input.
I did notice the following in dmesg, after stopping the capture:
[4295302.343000] ivtv0 warning: ENC: REG_DMAXFER 2 wait failed
[4295304.371000] ivtv0 warning: ENC: DMA still Pending while stopping
capture!
[4295305.353000] ivtv0 warning: DEC: REG_ENCSG1LEN wait failed
I wonder if this is related to buggy dma on my board? I've seen the
warnings that the VIA chipset is buggy and has some problems with
ivtv...
dmesg output:
