My configuration:
WinTV PVR-150 NTSC (with remote)
Debian unstable distro (fresh install this past week)
Kernel 2.6.10
ivtv 0.3.2a
I've got the msp3400.ko from ivtv in my /lib/modules...
udev is managing /dev
I first tried with my stock 2.6.9 kernel and got the composite input
to work but the tuner did not seem to change channels (always got static).
In my /etc/modules.conf I set both
options ivtv tuner=50
options tuner type=50
but it didn't seem to work properly. I still had to manually
modprobe tuner type=50
modprobe ivtv
for the tuner type to be set correctly.
Presently I'm able to capture NTSC video from the composite or tuner inputs.
I haven't tried S-Video. My video is in color and looks great after
being transferred to my laptop and viewed on the monitor. It is washed
out in mythtv on the capture box through my tvout board, I'm hopeful that
just needs some tweaking of brightness and contrast. My ivtv log also
reported the missing HcwMakoA.ROM file, so I copied it from the CD
into /lib/modules
and it doesn't report that anymore.
I'm still having the following problems:
No audio - is there another module I should be loading for audio support?
Is audio just not yet working with the pvr-150?
No IR remote control - I've tried modprobe ir-kbd-i2c and still don't
see anything new in /dev/input or /proc/bus/input/devices. I want to
use the Hauppauge remote to control mythtv. The wiki page at
http://ivtv.writeme.ch/tiki-index.php?page=Remotes
said that the lirc_i2c module shouldn't be required. Can anyone confirm?

Does anyone have any hints for getting audio and/or the remote to work? Thanks
for all the great work on this driver.
