I just got my PVR-500 (81-1, 81-2) working alongside a PVR-250 (81-0). A couple of tips that I learned with the latest ivtv rpms from Axel's "bleeding" section - Don't use the 2.6-11 kernel yet, as it didn't have support for tuner #57 on the PVR-500s, but the 2.6-10 kernel did just fine. After upgrading, I realized that Axel didn't have 2.6-11 on his site anyway, so it must have apt-upgraded from one of the other repositories.
Also, I had a line in my modprobe file "alias msp3400 msp3400-ivtv". That seemed to make the sound very tin-y sounding, metallic-like. I removed that line and the sound is much better. Has anyone noticed a difference in the volume levels for those of you with a 250/350 and a 150/500 in the same box? The 500 on mine is 1.5 - 2x as loud as the recordings from the 250. Just a curiosity. Thank Jared for your guide on the 500 install and Axel for his awesome packaging - I've still never had to compile anything for mythTV. Also thanks to the gurus on the ivtv dev team for cracking this card and making it work on our systems. _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
