Working on putting together a machine with dual hauppage 150's, and I seem
to be encountering the 64 bit install + 0.70 IVTV + mythtv 0.19 bug.
Initial loading of the ivtv drivers looks fine, doesn't seem to be any IRQ
sharing going on which I've seen a few messages imply might be a problem.
Initial tests cat-ing the /dev/video0 and /dev/video1 devices seem fine.
Running mythtv seems functional, can watch live TV fine the first
time(pause/ff/rw all work, changing channels works perfect). Stop
watching live TV, and things get broken. Looking in the dmesg, I see a
slew of IVTV warning messages, and things get hung up in such a way that I
can't make ivtv functional without a reboot.
Get a lot of "1000 ms time out waiting for firmware" messages, though the
key error message looks like it's either the "ivtv0 warning: Failed api
call 0x00000082 with result 0xfffffff0" or the "ivtv0 warning: ENC: Failed
stopping capture -16"
I've heard going with an i386 install rather than a x64 install may
alleviate the issue, but haven't heard any definite success stories on
that approach. Has anyone who's experienced this problem tried that
solution rather than going the downgrade to 0.6.1 version of IVTV route?
Now you have one. Yes, I had the "1000 ms time out waiting for firmware" timeout messages on 64bit fc5. Going to 32bit definitely resolves this. Also, if you really want to stay with 64bit, going to ivtv 0.6.1 also avoids the timeout issue.
The only issue I'm having right now is that every once in a while programs get recorded with no sound. Very odd. It's very infrequent, so I have not tried tracking this down. This is with ivtv 0.70. I'll try 0.71 and if that does not resolve the periodic sound issue, go back to 0.6.X.
Also, does anyone know what the status of this is with the developers?
Poking around the ticket system, I can't find anything similar, and
looking at the lists only found one reference where a devloper was going
to try to reproduce the problem on their own machine, but couldn't get the
bug to occur. Do the developers have access(be it directly or indirectly)
to a machine exhibiting this problem yet?
