Hi everyone! I have seen this topic in different forums etc. But it seems not to be a solution for it, so I will try here.
The problem is that I have reinstalled my mythtv box and it is now running Ubuntu 5.04 (used to run Fedora Core 1). I have a PVR-350 card which includes a MPEG encoder. I have tried the ivtv driver versions 0.3.2u and 0.3.3f with the same result. I can do cat /dev/video0 > whatever.mpg I can then play the whatever.mpg without any problems, so it seems like the ivtv driver works just fine. The problem is that when switching to LiveTV, I get picture and sound for about one second, then it just freezes, and after aprox 15 second I will see the main menu in mythfrontend again. Any ideas where I should start looking? I'm running MythTV 0.17 as seen below in the outputs...
