Hi,
  I have a myth box that has been happily running with an old winTV go
card for about a year or so and recently I picked up a pvr-500 as an
upgrade. I've taken the old wintv card out so I only have the pvr-500 in
the system. I've installed the ivtv 0.3.7k drivers and I'm running the
gentoo 2.6.12-r9 kernel with all the i2c stuff compiled in as part of the
kernel (is this a problem?).  When I modprobe the ivtv driver and then try
Considering your problems, perhaps it is. Why don't you try with i2c as modules?

to cat /dev/video0 > tmp.mpg the file size stays 0.  Following the
instructions on the wiki I downloaded and installed the
pvr48wdm_1.8.22037.exe version of the firmware and have used the
ivtvfwextract.pl script to extract the .rom files and place them in
/lib/modules/. Here is my modules.conf:

-----
alias char-major-81 videodev
alias char-major-81-0 ivtv
alias char-major-81-1 ivtv
options ivtv ivtv_std=1 tuner=57,57 ivtv_debug=1
options cx25840 debug=1
options saa7127
options msp3400 once=1 simple=1
Why don't you let the driver do auto-detect? With the later this usually works better...

(I've tried a number of variations but none seem to work for me)

Here are the messages from dmesg when I modprobe ivtv:
