[ivtv-devel] PVR-500mce D492

[Matt Johnson]

Finally got mine working… Well somewhat anyway.  I can watch tv just fine with mplayer, and also when using live-tv in myth.  But for some reason, when recording, mythbackend doesn’t change the channel before it starts recording.  It just has the last channel that I had manually tuned to.   I’d post this to the myth list as a bug, but I have two other tuners in this system that work just fine.  It ONLY happens on my new PVR500mce tuners running ivtv.   Any ideas?     BTW – the problem with my PVR500mce was easily solved by renaming my tuner.ko and tveeprom.ko to tuner-ivtv.ko and tveeprom.ko and then adding the following to my modprobe.conf.   alias char-major-81 videodev alias char-major-81-0 ivtv alias tveeprom tveeprom-ivtv alias tuner tuner-ivtv options cx25840 no_black_magic=1   I had tried this awhile back, but I must have forgotten to depmod after making the changes.  It works now, except for the issue above.  Also – I was able to verify that no_black_magic=1 is required.  It bombs without it.   Thanks, Matt
