Using the how to on wilsonnet.com, I was able to setup my PVR-250 to capture and dispaly cable tv video and it worked perfectly. It was fine.
After I ran Mythtvsetup. I am no longer to able to
display cable tv video.  and when I the system now
thanks it is a PVR150 instead of a PVR250

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# /bin/dmesg |grep Initialized
ivtv: Initialized WinTV PVR 150, card #0

what happend and what do I do?
Huh - I had the same problem. I tried to specify cardtype=1, tuner=47 (plus some others) with no luck.
I just ended up going out and buying a pvr150.
Not a bad deal at Circuit City for $60 AR.

Now I have 2 250's waiting to get into a slave backend.
Hopefully the system will recognize thm as such, but I'm guessing I'm going to have the same problem.

If you get it working, let us know!

After thinking about it, remove the card and remove ivtv (plus the associated ivtv stuff). Then put the card back in and do another apt-get and see if that fixes it.
If the PCI device ID isn't recognized, 0.3 versions assume it's a PVR-150. 0.2 versions assume it's a PVR-250, so you could just use 0.2.x...

The right solution, however, is to get the card recognized (basically, the info needs added to ivtv-cards.c)... From the IvyTV initialization log messages:

ivtv: ==================== START INIT IVTV ====================
ivtv: version x.x.x (xxxx) loading
ivtv: Linux version: x.x.x
ivtv: In case of problems please include the debug info
ivtv: between the START INIT IVTV and END INIT IVTV lines when
ivtv: mailing the ivtv-devel mailinglist.

(and also post the output of lspci -v and a note saying your card isn't recognized.)
