Hi, First off, let me detail my system Compaq Deskpro P_3 800Mhz 256 mb RAM Hauppauge PVR350 TV-out connected to tv Knoppmyth R5A22 mythtv@mythtv:/usr/src$ ivtvctl -V ioctl: IVTV_IOC_G_DRIVER_INFO driver info: version = 0x00000303 (0.3.3) comment = u mythtv@mythtv:/usr/src$ uname -r 2.6.11.9-chw-2 At first, I had just the PVR 350. After a lot of searching knoppmythwiki and this fine forum, I managed to get it to work with the ivtv driver (incl tv-out), recompiled lirc for remote etc and it all worked. I purchased another PVR-150 MCE so I could simultaneously watch TV & record. I put it in a PCI slot, and searched the forum and wiki for instructions. Unfortunately, I got very confused as they were a bit conflicting, so I followed the wiki at: http://knoppmythwiki.org/index.php?page ... stallation Here are my files: mythtv@mythtv:/usr/src$ cat /etc/mythtv/modules/ivtv alias char-major-81 videodev alias char-major-61 lirc_i2c #options tuner type=50 #options ivtv debug=0 options ivtv ivtv_debug=0 options msp3400 once=1 simple=1 options saa7127 i2c_enable=1,-1 options cx25840 i2c_enable=1 no_black_magic=1 install ivtv /sbin/modprobe tuner; /sbin/modprobe msp3400; /sbin/modprobe saa7115; /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install ivtv; /sbin/modprobe ivtv-fb; /sbin/modprobe lirc_i2c remove ivtv /sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove ivtv && /sbin/modprobe -r saa7115 && /sbin/modprobe -r msp3400 && /sbin/modprobe -r tuner && /sbin/modprobe e ivtv-fb && /sbin/modprobe -r lirc_i2c mythtv@mythtv:/usr/src$cat /etc/modprobe.d/ivtv alias char-major-81 videodev alias char-major-81-0 ivtv alias char-major-61 lirc_i2c #options ivtv tuner=47 options saa7127 i2c_enable=-1 options cx25840 i2c_enable=1 no_black_magic=1 Then I started mythtv-setup and added a second tuner (MPEG-Decoder on /dev/video1 for tuner0) and linked it to my datadirect subscription in input connections. I also set up host-specific backend setup to do 2 simultaneous jobs in the backend I had already setup the frontend to use the hardware decoder for pvr350 earlier. Now, whenever I watch tv in mythfrontend, the picture is slow and almost like a slideshow, as is the sound. It's almost like its trying to play back in software, not hardware. After a while, the frontend crashes, and the backend-frontend connection is reported broken. I believe that ivtv has detected the pvr150, as: mythtv@mythtv:/usr/src$ ivtvctl -d /dev/video1 -a|grep PVR ioctl: VIDIOC_G_OUTPUT failed Card type : WinTV PVR 150 mythtv@mythtv:/usr/src$ ivtvctl -d /dev/video0 -a|grep PVR Card type : WinTV PVR 350 I also did the following: $ cat /dev/video0>foobar.mpeg ^c after 10 secs $ cat /dev/video0>foobar2.mpeg ^c after 10 secs both files contained video & mplayer played them back I searched the forums, but nothing I found really helped, and only confused me more. I was hoping some kind sould could guide me in fixing the mess that is my ivtv config (presumably that's where the problem is). Please help me. Regards, AR |
