As I've mentioned before on the list I'm having some problems with my PVR500. It'll mute on it's own. Last night it would on the first tuner start to record and created a 0 size file and not record but show it was in use. The second tuner on the same card worked fine though. Rebooting cleared it right up.
The output from "v4l2-ctl --all --device=/dev/video0" looked OK. Is there a better command to use to trouble shoot it? I've read that heat could be an issue sometimes. My case is well vented. I am considering putting in one of those fans that fits in a slot just to make sure. I did leave a space between the two cards cause I was worried about heat. I'm wondering though if my firmware is OK ? I kept seeing the ivtv dmesg report negative bytes in it's output and I wondered about that. Is that a problem?
