Once you move up to ivtv 1.0.0 you need a recent version of MythTV to use the mpeg decoder. You'll either have to move to a recent trunk version, or compile 0-20-fixes after applying the following patch. http://www.iarmst.demon.co.uk/test/mythfix-ivtv-v3.patch Once MythTV is updated, you can remove 'options ivtv-fb osd_compat=1' since it's not required. > (II) IVTV(0): Init Video > (II) IVTV(0): Enabling Xv support for PVR350 > (EE) Failed to initialize GLX extension (Compatible NVIDIA X driver not > found) > (EE) IVTV(0): FBIOPAN_DISPLAY: Invalid argument > > I'm not sure how to fix those 2 X errors.

The FBIOPAN_DISPLAY error is harmless and can be ignored. -- Ian _______________________________________________ ivtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://ivtvdriver.org/mailman/listinfo/ivtv-users
