I'm attempting to use a Plextor ConvertX PX-TV402U with MythTV. For the time being, my project is (or should be) very simple: I just want to transfer VHS video to DVD. I'm a relative newbie to linux video and mythtv.
I'm running linux 2.6.14.3, Debian unstable, and the Plextor drivers wis-go7007 version 0.9.7. I've also built mythtv and all the plugins from subversion checkout today. I've configured mythtv as suggested at <http://gentoo-wiki.com/HARDWARE_go7007>. mythtv sees the Plextor card, and I have configured it under "capture cards" in mythtv-setup. Whenever I choose 'Watch TV' from mythtv-frontend, I get no result. The console reports: 2005-11-27 16:56:39.033 TV: Attempting to change from None to WatchingLiveTV 2005-11-27 16:56:39.039 Using protocol version 22 2005-11-27 16:56:39.077 GetEntryAt(-1) failed. 2005-11-27 16:56:39.078 EntryToProgram([EMAIL PROTECTED] Dec 31 19:00:00 1969) failed to get pginfo 2005-11-27 16:56:39.079 TV Error: LiveTV not successfully started 2005-11-27 16:56:39.079 TV Error: LiveTV not successfully started 2005-11-27 16:56:39.085 Disable DPMS 2005-11-27 16:56:39.085 Enable DPMS FWIW, gorecord works fine, but my understanding is that A-V sync will be lost with long recordings with gorecord but mythtv avoids that problem. I'm also trying to avoid a post-capture video convert/transcode step but not quite sure how to do that. Thanks for any pointers in the right direction. -- Adam Rosi-Kessel http://adam.rosi-kessel.org
