Try adding: options ivtv tda9887=0,0 ivtv_debug=1,1 Add your ivtv_first_minor=1 option, though I don't know if you'll need to offset the other options with a leading -1, entry. Adding the tda9887=0,0 made the tuner start working for me with my PVR500 D492 NTSC card. :) > I skip video0 since my HD-3000 grabs that even though I only ever use > it in dvb mode. > - -- James A.
