Thanks for gathering all the information and posting it.

Others may not agree with me after reading the bootup messages from the system log, but I do not believe that you are using the DVB drivers. I base this on the line that says:

cx2388x v4l2 driver version 0.0.5 loaded

And then there are the lines that refer to "registered device(s)" video0 [v4l2], vbi0, and radio0. These are not the devices you want to be created when using the DVB drivers to control the HD3000 card. There should be a line like

DVB: registering frontend 0 (pcHDTV HD3000 HDTV)...

I cannot tell you what specific steps are needed to correct this, mainly because I cannot sit down in front of your system and have a look at all the files that control the start-up. But it looks like there is a conflict somewhere that causes the V4L driver to be loaded, and the DVB driver to be shoved aside, ignored, whatever.

What I can do is attach two files, modprobe.conf and rc.local. These are the two files that I use to control how the tuner cards are recognized, registered, and initialized. But I do this quite reluctantly because your system and my system are different. And I caution that if you DO read through these two files, note the sections that are COMMENTED-OUT. I found that modprobe.conf was not reliable, and moved the start-up commands to rc.local so I could control the order and timing of loading the software.

I wish I could tell you 1, 2, 3 simple steps that would help your system work, but it may take a bit of trial-and-error on your part to find the right combination of commands. It took me a few days of experimenting to come up with the two files that I use now.

Much obliged. I'll check them out.

I do think there is something with bootup because I have to modprobe to get cx88 successfully loaded. But, it IS loaded and I can use mplayer to view HD channels. And, when going into Mythtv, PVR250 works. That's why I thought it was a configuration problem inside Mythtv, not a driver issue.
