Hi, I agree with Marc: This is something for the ivtv-lists (ivtv-users?). However, there are a couple of thing that I would do:
1) Check that the lirc modules are not loaded. They use the IVTV module. 2) Check that the ivtv-fb module is not loaded. Also, make user you are using a driver from the unstable branch for the 150 cards. I think this is the only way to get it to work. At least that is how I did it.. :-) /Fredrik On 7/12/05, Marc Tousignant <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > ________________________________________ > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Neil Terry > Sent: Monday, July 11, 2005 11:59 PM > To: [email protected] > Subject: [mythtv-users] ivtv headaches > > I'm having an incredibly difficult and frustrating time figuring out how to > solve a problem I'm having with my pvr-150 capture card.
