150 or 500 with other ivtv cards (besides each other, which works fine).
I'll try to beat you to it. My PVR-250 is sitting on my desk right now, completely unused at the moment, along with a pair of M179s...
Jarod, any luck (or even time to try) running the 250 alongside the
500? I'm still waiting for my 500 to ship so I'm not able to do any
testing yet. Also, as an aside, I downloaded the latest ivtv-0.3
driver and am not able to compile it on my system running FC1 on
2.4.22-1.2199.nptl_52.rhfc1.at kernel from atrpms. I know I need to
pose this question on the ivtv list, but I thought someone might know
offhand why that driver wouldn't compile. I'm betting there's
something (module, patch, etc) that's not included in that kernel that
I need.
One little trick I learned: If something doesn't work right with a driver load, simply unloading and reloading the drivers doesn't work. In fact, just rebooting the box won't work either. You need to do a full power down (to completey reset the PVR cards), otherwise the drivers continue to mis-detect the card and/or fail to initialize it.
This comes from spending hours and many reboots trying to get something to work, but failing and going to bed. The first person up in the moring discovered the myth system not working, killed power to the box, booted it back up, and things worked again.
