Hi,
So I've spent a few weeks trying everything I possibly could to try and get a pvr500 with samsung tuners working on a ppc, and they simply don't. Having browsed through the mail lists looks like the only version that worked, kind of, is 0.4.2. I've tried 0.6.x, 0.7.x, and 0.8.0 since then, and none of them work. Always "encoder mailbox not found". The problem with 4.2 is that it doesn't understand the samsung tuner that I have. 0.4.3 doesn't even work while 0.4.2 did (same problem encoder and decoder mailboxes not found).
I'm sure it is something simple? Maybe no one crazy enough to try and get this working on a PPC and thus no one else complaining?
I've pasted my ivtv output. It looks the same on pretty much all versions I've tried. Also, I've tried on Gentoo as well as FC4. Pretty much all other ppc postings I've seen have this problem.
Help please?
Thanks.
