Here is exactly what i did to get my PVR-500MCE working. I used the instructions on this web page http://www.bitbenderforums.com/~ralpha6/knoppmyth/knoppmythtv.htm
That still didn't work but then i tried just doing closing mythfrontend and mythbackend, using mplayer to play /dev/video0 and checking every frequency to see if i found anything with a script something like this -- #!/bin/bash echo be sure mplayer is playing /dev/video0 /usr/local/bin/ivtvctl -d /dev/video0 -u 1 -f width=720,height=480 -p 6 feq=1 while : ; do ivtvctl -d /dev/video0 -r $freq let freq=freq+5 sleep 1 done -- It found a channel around 1152 Turns out my frequency table is not ntsc-cable as i i could have swear it was when i used a tv card years ago, but its ntsc-cable-hrc. I guess it would have been a lot easier to check ever freqtable first. I also bet this card worked with serveral of the kernel modules i tried but i never had the freqtable right, thus the constant static.
