Did you try ivtvctl -a with the device option each for the corresponding /dev/video devices? I think per default it only checks the first one... > ioctl IVTV_IOC_G_CODEC ok > Codec parameters > aspect : 2 > audio : 0x00e9 > bframes : 3 > bitrate_mode: 0 [...] > Frame period: 1/25 > Frame lines : 625 > ioctl VIDIOC_G_STD ok ...the next line looks like the tuner is set to pal (0xff): > Video standard = 0x000000f f > ioctl: VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL > Brightness = 383 > Contrast = 63 > Saturation = 63 > Hue = 0 > Volume = 58880 > Mute = 1 > > Dosn't this look like there is only one tuner being found.....but the > messages in dmesg seem to conflict with this, dmesg (Part of) is below... > > ivtv: ==================== START INIT IVTV ==================== > ivtv: version 0.4.1 (tagged release) loading > ivtv: Linux version: 2.6.12-12mdk 686 gcc-4.0 > ivtv: In case of problems please include the debug info between [...] From the rest of you dmesg output it really looks fine with detecting properly both first and second card. Did you explictly tell ivtvctl to set up the settings for /dev/video0 and seperatly for /dev/video1? Also to tune the card you need to tell ivtv-tune to talk to the respective devices.... What frequency to use: When i first wondered what frequency to use i just ran scantv and it detected the proper channels which are stored to .tv/stations in your home per default. Maybe use scantv (part of xawtv...) to check whether it can find some channels. The channel numbers then can be used with ivtv-tune to switch channels.
