After some recent ivtv update, I started having this problem too. My solution was to manually set the tuner type by loading the module in /etc/modules with a tuner=## argument. The problem is figuring out what type of tuner you have.

If you have old logs from when it used to work, you can look it up. That's what I did. Or you can do some old-fashioned trial and error. I believe there's a table of different tuner #'s somewhere...

Update - Just now realized that the kernel is logging :
kernel: tuner: tuner type not set
Everytime I attempt to change the channel. I'm sure this is the problem,
just don't know what to do to correct it?


I decided I would try to upgrade my (FC2 Box) kernel / packages via Axel's
atrpms tonight. I've done this in the past - get the new kernel, upgrade
video, lirc, ivtv and wha-la it works. For some reason when I upgraded to
2.6.10-1.8_FC2 kernel with ivtv-0.1.10-49.1_pre2_ck100zz.rhfc2.at my
pvr-250 will no longer change channels. The damn thing is stuck on MTV of
all channels (I can only handle so much Real World), and the OSD / Channel
select does nothing. The screen blanks momentarily like it is tuning a new
channel - but it just repeatedley drops back to MTV. I've tried removing
ivtv / reinstalling, I went over my setup and found nothing wrong. Problem
now is I can't roll back to 2.6.8-1.521 kernel because none of the
packages exist any longer on atrpms. Has anyone else had this problem with
the most current ivtv package?

thanks
