Can someone tell me how the "analog options" works with a DVB card? My AirStar HD 5000 is an ATSC and QAM tuner (apparently no NTSC). BUT I also have a PVR-150 card in the system. I noticed that if I add in the PVR card, I now see: DVB (0) v4l -> input 1 v4l -> Svideo etc (or something like it) in my input settings. Can I (do I?) assign the v4l input under the DVB card? If so, does this then mean that the system is "smart" enough so that if I say, type channel 23, it will use the PVR-150 card instead of trying to use the DVB card? (ie, no more having to manually hit Y to switch inputs). |

I have a 2 tuner system -- one tuner is a PVR-250 and the other is an Airstar HD 5000 ATSC/QAM tuner. When I select a channel that is only available on one of the tuners, myth will automatically use the tuner that is able to receive that channel. I do not believe you can use the Airstar HD 5000 card to tune analogue / NTSC transmissions. Marc |

hurnik, one more item. Assuming the PVR-150 card is a Hauppauge PVR-150 card, make sure you added it as card type "mpeg2 encoder card (PVR-x50, PVR-500)" when you created it in the "capture card" sections of the setup routine. Marc |

Yes, did all that (added as the right card this time). You are correct, the AirStar does not do NTSC Is that what the "analog options" under a DVB card are for? Or are you SUPPOSED to actually fill that stuff out when you setup the inputs? I'm fairly certain that when I setup Myth with JUST the DVB card that I do not see a V4L section under the DVB card. Only after I added the PVR-150 card (but I could be wrong). I'm pretty sure I'd seen in one of the setup guides to fill that out. I'll try using it tonight by just switching to the analog channel. |

I am running R5D1 and I do not see any "analog options" or "V4L" options in the setup screens for my DVB card. Marc |

It appears your /dev/videoX numbers have changed because of the new card. You need to set your HD 5000 to a DVB/ATSC type card, while the PVRx50 to the Hardware Encoder PVRx50 card. Bruce S. |
