Hi guys. Thanks so much for providing support on IVTV. I'm hoping
that you will be able to help me out with my current project.
I'm building a PVR using a VIA Epia 800 with a Hauppauge PVR-350 card.
In order to simplify things, I decided to use Fedora Core 4, MythTv,
and follow Mr. Wilson's excellent tutorial. I would have been dead in
the water without it.
So far, I've gotten some things to work and not been so luck with
others. Let me preface by saying that I'm a Linux n00b, so I could be
doing just about any part wrong. I really need things spelled out at
this point - yum has been my salvation.
At any rate, here is my current situation. I can get the PVR to output
the test pattern. However, when I do the test capture, all I get is
static. I've played around with ivtv-tune and nothing but static. I
could be using the wrong settings, but I set my input to 4 (tuner) and
used the us-cable channels, which I think is correct for my setup.
Worth noting it that # cat /var/log/messages |grep "iTVC15 TV out"
returns no hits. However, cat /var/log/messages |grep "TV out"
returns:
Feb 12 11:56:52 mythtv kernel: ivtv0-osd: fb1: cx23415 TV out frame
buffer device
I think perhaps Hauppauge has made some changes to this card?
I can load up ivtv without any visible errors, but /var/log/messages
indicates the some errors (using script from wilsonnet.com), see below.
Any ideas guys? Thanks in advance, S Price. Details follow
