I have a working MythTV system (FC3, ATRPMS) with two PVR-250s. I
added a PVR-150 tonight, upgraded to the latest kernel and ivtv
0.3.6w, and I can get video via the PVR-150 (no sound, though). My
goal is to have the two PVR-250s record analog cable (already
working), and the PVR-150 record OTA broadcast signals via my rooftop
antenna since the reception of local channels stinks on our analog cable.
I set up a new video source called "antenna" and configured a new
"local broadcast" channel listing for my area at zap2it. However,
it's not clear to me how this will get handled in the EPG. For
example, channel 7 on analog cable is Discovery, while channel 7 on
broadcast is PBS. After running mythfilldatabase these both appear in
the EPG, but where channels are the same (i.e., channel 9 is the same
station on both cable and OTA), there is only one entry in the EPG.
What you need to do is go into the Channel Editor (either in
mythtv-setup or mythweb) and change the channel number. In my case I
have channel 7 (pvr250 connected to directv), channel 7-1 (wintv-go OTA
NTSC) and 7HD (pchdtv 3K).
I want local channels to be recorded on the PVR-150 by default, using
the local broadcast channel listing unless there is a conflict, in
which case they would get recorded on one of the PVR-250s. Cable-only
channels would always get recorded on the PVR-250s. Is all of this
(or any of this) possible? I could just delete the duplicate
broadcast channels from the cable lineup, but then that would
eliminate the possibility of using the cable as a backup to resolve
conflicts.
Set the recording priority higher for the channels the 150 receives,
setup > tv settings > recording priorities > channels priorities
Thanks,
Dylan
