Wow, the complaints keep coming on this issue... This is probably better suited for discussion on the ivtv-devel list though... Not that they any more helpful. :(
You're the first person I've heard about this happening while using an nvidia card for output. Everyone else seems to only have this problem using PVR-350 TVout. Strange. In my opinion, it's a problem with IRQ sharing and the newer ivtv drivers that support newer tuners/cards. Unfortunately, no developer has had the problem happen to them, so it's unfixed for now. Changing your hardware (or BIOS irq assignment options if possible?) seems to be the only workaround... Do me a favour and "lspci -v" and paste the results, I'm curious to see if your PVR card is sharing an IRQ with your video card. I have yet to confirm if it really is the IRQ sharing, because it works on a machine that allows me to assign IRQ's, and it locks up on one that doesn't (and thus shares). -Kenneth On Mon, 28 Feb 2005 10:17:15 -0500, Aaron Aguilar <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > First off thanks so much to this list and to Jared for helping me set > up a working mythtv box.
