There was a thread about a similar thing on ivtv-devel a week or so ago. A friend of mine's PVR-500 and the one I recently purchased has the same problem: only tuner1 works... tuner2 is static. I haven't had time to work on mine and figure it out.

IIRC, the current theory has to do with i2c not initializing it properly and/or the tveeprom module used is the wrong one. I tried manually loading the ivtv-based tveeprom on mine last night (rather than the kernel one), but no joy.

        I could be F.O.S....

Hello,

A week ago I was running Myth TV with my PVR500 both tuners working
with almost no problems. Starting a few days ago, all I get on video0
is static. video1 still works fine. I've even tried manually capturing
the video using ptune and it doesnt seem to help -- I still get static
from video0 and video1 works fine. I don't think I changed anything
but I thought I'd check here if anyone experienced the same problem
and it was a software thing, or if its a hardware thing and I should
replace my tuner.


Thanks in advance,
~Danesh

P.S. I have tried reinstalling the ivtv software, but it didnt help.
P.S.P.S. System information below..
