Thanks for the pointer. At this point it appears that now I can get video via the first tuner on the PVR-500. This started working after a reboot of the system. Still no video from the second tuner on the PVR-500 card. I compared the results of the ivtvctl -a command for both /dev/video1 and /dev/video2 (/dev/video0 is the PVR-350 in my system). I noted the following differences, the capabilities lines are different and I see odd entries in Brightness, contrast, etc. Trying to find a way to change those setting now. I don't have a windows system to try this card in so I need to sort out if I have a hardware problem or just a configuration problem. Hopefully it is just the default settings provided by the driver are not correct for the second tuner. /dev/video1 Capabilities : 0x01070011 Video standard = 0x00003000 ioctl: VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL Brightness = 128 Contrast = 64 Saturation = 64 Hue = 0 Volume = 60928 Mute = 0 /dev/video2 Capabilities : 0x01030011 Video standard = 0x00003000 ioctl: VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL Brightness = 0 Contrast = -182619467 Saturation = -2146937321 Hue = -172077056 Volume = 0 Mute = 0
