Hi
I looked on the net and found the following regarding the ignore option:

ignore: insmod parameter A list of pairs.  The first value is the bus number 
(-1 for any i2c bus), the second is the I2C address.  These addresses are 
never probed.  This parameter overrides 'normal' and 'probe' but not the 
'force' lists.

I also found an example on a different website:

options tuner ignore=0,0x6b

I now only need a modified tuner 38 and to apply the patch to ivtv-streams.c 
and to run the script:

modprobe tuner ignore=0,0x6b
modprobe ivtv ivtv_std=2 tuner=38 tda9887=0
sleep 1
modprobe i2c-dev
sleep 1
modprobe i2c-isa
sleep 1
i2cset 0 0x11 0x01 0x01
ivtvctl -p4
modprobe lirc_i2c
sleep 1
lircd -d /dev/lirc0 --permission=666

I then run mythbackend and mythfrontend in X, the remote now also works in
myth.

The above all works on Revision 2685.

The tuner on my card is an FQ1216ME / I H-3.
Last time I downloaded the v4l driver (some time ago) the tuner module code 
had the settings for tuner type 38 set to

   {"Philips PAL/SECAM multi (FM1216ME MK3)", Philips, PAL,
         16 * 160.00, 16 * 442.00, 0x01, 0x02, 0x04, 0x8e, 623},

as opposed to:

   {"Philips PAL/SECAM multi (FM1216ME MK3)", Philips, PAL,
         16 * 160.00, 16 * 442.00, 0x01, 0x02, 0x04, 0xce, 623},

in the ivtv tuner.c
The v4l settings work on with my tuner and the ivtv settings do not.
Does this require updating?

Best Regards

Trev
