Just installed fresh R4v5. Everything went smooth. have a PVR 350 card. Set my tuner0 to comcast input source Try to watch tv. Nothing. Try to record. Works fine. Can play back to monitor with sound fine. Now I can stop watching recording. Go watch live TV. Now it works. Try to output to TVOut. Sound goes to TV but no video. Not sure what is going on. Since I can record fine and after initially watching something recorded I can watch real time TV it just seems like some subtle settings are just not right. Suggestions welcome.... |

And the logs says? Run it from an xterm, try to watch tv and quit. You should get some output... |

Sorry. Not a Linux guru. Which logs would show what is going on? |

/var/log/mythtv/ I also suggest searching the forum and reading the MythTV docs. |

Post subject: | Almost there...PVR350 TVout |
Ok, Have a default KnoppMyth Install. Changed the modules.conf to reflect suggestions on the ivtv TVout Howto. Will not show video on TVOut. Just a bunch of white lines If I go to a shell and type the following : ivtvfbctl /dev/fb1 -globalalpha -nolocalalpha -alpha 0 Then TVOut works. I gather this command sets the frame buffer to transparant. How can I get the proper setting at startup? Thanks |

Take a look in /etc/sysconfig/ivtv/ and /etc/mythtv/modules/. Don't use modules.conf and do search the forum. |
