I have the following in /etc/modutils/ivtv: (location for setup on Ubuntu)
alias char-major-81 videodev
alias char-major-81-0 ivtv
alias char-major-81-1 ivtv
options tda9887 debug=1
options tuner debug=1
options ivtv ivtv_debug=1
I am testing the video by running the following: cat /dev/video0 > video0.mpg
This defaults to my local NTSC channel 3 for both video0 and video1. I have also unloaded the tuner and tda9887 modules using:
rmmod tda9887 tuner
then reloaded the modules using:
modprobe tuner debug=1
modprobe tda9887 debug=1
I still get the same output. I am familiar with linux, but new to ivtv configuration and setup. FYI, I get this same behavior on Ubuntu, Knoppmyth, and FedoraCore4.
Thanks, Bill

On a channel change you ought to see something like this:
tuner: type set to 56 (Philips PAL/SECAM multi (FQ1216AME MK4)) by ivtv i2c
driver #3
tda9885/6/7: switching to v4l2
tda9885/6/7: configure for: PAL-BG
tda9885/6/7: writing: b=0xd4 c=0x70 e=0x09
tuner: tv freq set to 400.00
tuner: tv 0x1b 0x6f 0xce 0x02
ivtv: Initialized WinTV PVR 500 (unit #2), card #3
ivtv: ==================== END INIT IVTV ====================
tuner: tv freq set to 203.25
tuner: tv 0x8e 0x02 0x0f 0x23
tuner: tv freq set to 203.25
tuner: tv 0x0f 0x23 0x8e 0x02
tuner: tv freq set to 784.25
tuner: tv 0x33 0x73 0x8e 0x04
What I see in your log are all regular messages, not debug messages. It's the
tda9887 'writing' message that I'm interested in and the tuner messages with
the frequency and the actual config bytes.
You're doing something wrong, I've this in my modprobe.conf:
options tuner debug=1
options tda9887 debug=1
Thanks,
Hans
