Post subject: | View tv: 0-10s, then a reboot with PVR500 |
This is a new install- I'm running a PVR500 in a P3-667 box. The box was very stable in it's previous life, but I added the PVR500 and an nVidia 6200a AGP card to it recently. I have a DISH-500 box feeding SVideo in to the '500 on video0. No attempts to control the Dish box yet. I can play MP3s, videos, etc, except when I hit watch TV, it reboots in 0-10 seconds. When I do get live TV to play for a few seconds, the audio is scratchy too. Nothing in the logs prior to the reboot. I followed the instructions here to install the newest ivtv driver (0.4.5) compatible with my core(Linux version: 2.6.15-chw-2). Doing a "cat /dev/video0 > test.mpg" causes an immediate reboot. The PCI latency was set to 32 in BIOS, I upped it to 64, then 128 with no effect (other than the warning message going away). I upped the AGP memory hole from 32 to 256MB with no effect either. Any ideas of what to try next? lspci -v Code: 0000:02:08.0 Multimedia video controller: Internext Compression Inc iTVC16 (CX23416) MPEG-2 Encoder (rev 01) Subsystem: Hauppauge computer works Inc.: Unknown device e807 Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 128, IRQ 11 Memory at c8000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=64M] Capabilities: [44] Power Management version 2 0000:02:09.0 Multimedia video controller: Internext Compression Inc iTVC16 (CX23416) MPEG-2 Encoder (rev 01) Subsystem: Hauppauge computer works Inc.: Unknown device e817 Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 128, IRQ 10 Memory at c4000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=64M] Capabilities: [44] Power Management version 2 root@mythtv:~# dmesg | grep ivtv Code: ivtv: ==================== START INIT IVTV ====================

When I run: Code: dmesg | grep -i irq | grep -i disabl I got this: Code: ACPI: PCI Interrupt Link [LNKD] (IRQs 3 4 5 6 7 9 10 11 12 14 15) *0, disabled.
Serial: 8250/16550 driver $Revision: 1.90 $ 4 ports, IRQ sharing disabled So I went in to the BIOS and disabled COM2, and the LPT port to free up interrupts. No effect. I pulled the sound card, and rebooted and it lasted much longer. I was getting some tearing on screen, and no audio of course. I'm pulling cards, and playing with interrupts... so far I've forced the int. to 3 for the PCI slot the card is in, and it is stable for now... going to test more of course. Then work on getting audio working again. Zeph |

Well, that didn't last long. Looks like I get up to 5 minutes of viewing live TV, then a reboot. I've pulled the NIC and sound card. The only card left in the machine other than the PVR500 is the AGP video. I forced interrupts on that slot, to no real effect. I'm out of ideas. ![]() |

What chipset does your motherboard use? I'm guessing VIA, ALI or maybe S3? |

Post subject: | Did you find a solution? |
Having the same problem here. PVR-500 on a an MSI mobo with VIA chipset. |

It's a nForce2 chipset, with a new AGP 6200 card in it. I gave up and bought/built a Dragon copy with the MSI board. The 500 works fine in that system, although I had to do a new install. |

Did you try it without 0.4.5 first? I recommend that people avoid 0.4.5 at this point in time, because it has known issues. Did you try the CompileIvtv instructions on the Wiki? With a vanilla install forcing the use of the 04.4 drivers by doing step 4 gets most recalitant PVR-150 and PVR-500's working. |

I did try it with the stock R5C7 install first. After many hours of messing with the bios, I tried to update ivtv via the compile ivtv. I did just pull down the newest files though, so may have missed the combination that worked. For my needs, I was just test-driving Myth on that box before I bought a new box. I proved to myself that it would fulfill my needs (when I got the record working), so went ahead and bought the new box. Thanks a lot for your help though- I'd never even come close without this site to search/ask on. |
