Hi there,
I have been attempting to follow the helpful advice available to get my TV card working with MythTV 0.17. So far I have had no success at all getting any TV input whatsoever. I have attempted to do a make install of the ivtv driver version 0.3.2.h but ran into a problem with a kernel module - /lib/modules/2.6.10-1.766_FC3/kernel/drivers/media/video/msp3400.ko so I don't know if I have actually managed to update the driver.
I'm new to messing about with this low-level stuff, as you can probably tell from my post!
Below is the output taken from /var/log/messages after loading the driver with modprobe - my /etc/modprobe.conf looks like this:
# ivtv modules setup
alias char-major-81 videodev
alias char-major-81-0 ivtv
alias tveeprom tveeprom-ivtv
options ivtv tda9887=0
options ivtv ivtv_std=2 tda9887=0
options saa7134 oss=1
options ivtv tuner=51
options msp3400 simpler=1 simple=0
I'd be grateful if someone can help…
Cheers,
Rick
