No matter what I do I can not get any
video from the COAX input of the WinTV 250 card. Everything else works great.
Any idea what to try. It appears that others have it working.

capture problems with Hauppauge WinTV-PVR 250
I have the exact same
card as you and it has been long enough now that I don't remember exactly what
I did to fix my problems but one difference I did notice was my permissions on
/dev/video:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 6 Sep 3 08:37 /dev/video -> video0
It does sound like you need to use ivtvctl to pickup from the right source. Let
me know what else you need to help. I am running on FC3, if that would help
you.

Have you used ivtvctl to try all of the inputs available through the
driver (typically tuner, 4x composite, and 4x S-Video)? Normally this
will let you work out which inputs you need to connect up to video
sources in mythtvsetup. When using ptune, you also need to ensure you
are using the correct channel settings (e.g. US cable, Europe etc)
