I just tried installing KnoppMyth R5A16 and chose the auto install.

I have 2 Hauppauge 250's in my box.

After running the install Myth only seems to be able to see one of them, though in the dmesg messages on bootup, linux is seeing both cards.

The one card is listed as Video0 but the other card cant be found in the Myth setup.

Hopefully this will help, looks like one of the cards is failing, yet I can swap the cards and I can get each card to work but only one at a time. I'm using an Intel D865 PERL motherboard.

Well, after alot of experimenting I following the following instructions to update the ivtv drivers to 0.3.8:

http://knoppmythwiki.org/index.php?page ... stallation

How is this working for you so far? I'm running 0.2.0rc3j after bad results with 0.3.6, and after a couple months of downtime (moved to a new house and no Myth until this week) I'm experiencing a few different playback problems.

Am curious if 0.3.8 is working well with your 250s, I have one 250 and one 350, using the 350's TV-Out for my picture. Thanks!
