An update > 1. Tuner Sound Done....thanks for the help. Used the ramdisk for everything but the ivtv and ivtv-fb.
I put the msp3400, ivtv and ivtv-fb in the rc.local...in that order. Works. > 2. X on the TV Out Done.....Loaded ivtv-devel...works. > 3. Lirc (can not get irw to work, no file error) Done. Crappy work around. The stupid udev is not working...oh well. I put in the rc.local after ivtv-fb: /sbin/modprobe lirc_i2c ln -s /dev/lirc0 /dev/lirc service lircd start > 4. Transcoding (best > setup for multicasting within the house on 802.11b) Using VLC Not working on it right now. Playing with it. New problem cropped up. The stupid remote would not change channels. A workaround is, rc.local: /etc/init.d/mythbackend start sleep 3 /etc/init.d/mythbackend stop /etc/init.d/mythbackend start Then the mplayer would not work with lirc. Fixed by copying the ~/.mythtv/lircrc to ~/.lircrc. The last trivial problem is the cddb and imdb lookups are not working.
