Hans,
I tried the 0.4.1 prerelease tar file with my PVR-150
and found that it would hang mythfrontend within
several seconds of watching live tv. Hitting Escape
would eventually get me back to the mythtv menus. The
mythfrontend output (plus other info) is below. I note
that I can do a 'mplayer /dev/video0' and do not see
the hang. As to the sound issue: I now get white noise
on the channels where I previously did not get any
sound (these are also in B&W rather than color).
Thanks for your time,
Doug
