LinHES Forums :: View topic - PVR-150 with R5A30 issues

First, I would like to thank this forum for creating such a useful resource, it was invaluable in helping me decide to go with knoppmyth in the first place.

However, I am having trouble getting my PVR-150 non MCE to work in R5A30 (running frontend and backend on the same machine), and have been unable despite massive googling to find relevant (R5A30) information regarding this card and my specific problems. If I have managed to miss something please forgive me and simply point (shove) me in the right direction. I am pretty much n00b but my exploration so far has educated me in the basics (and I mean basic).

Getting on with it:

After successfully installing knoppmyth:

1. General Settings left alone
2. Capture cards (here is where it gets tricky)

I enter the capture cards menu
Select new capture card
Set the card type to MPEG-2 Encoder card

I see /dev/video0 in the Video device section but the Default input section is empty. If I scroll through the Video Device options (/dev/video1...10..ect) I still get nothing in the Default input section.

If I scroll through the Video Device options (/dev/video1...10..ect) I still get nothing in the Default input section. Assuming i continue to select this device (sans default input) and setup Video Sources, I get an empty screen when I enter Input connections and a black display when I try to watch tv from Myth. After some digging, I looked in the dmesg log file and found, among other errors: ivtv0: Error -19 reading hauppauge eeprom A search for this error in the forums revealed other users encountering the same issue, but i was not able to resolve my problem based on the information in those posts (they dealt with PVR 500s, older versions like R5A16, or using the 150 as a second tuner) I assume based on the error that the issue is with tveeprom, but that is as far as my knowledge gets me. Any help that could be provided would be much appreciated. As an aside, I would like to be able to post more of the log files, but i am running OS X and the instructions for using ssh on the wiki are for Windows only. Any advise on this topic would be appreciated as well, and possibly help me provide more valuable information. Thanks in advance!

Code: ls /lib/modules Do you see the firmware(s) in that directory?

Author:	StephenNelson [ Sat Jan 07, 2006 9:12 pm ]

I don't know what the firmware is called, but here is what I get from /lib/modules: 2.6.13.2-chw-3 extra ivtv-fw-enc-bin misc HcwMakoA.ROM ivtv-fw-dec.bin ivtv_init_mpeg.bin

That looks right for /lib/modules. If you want to try updating the firmware, you can look here for more info and instructions: http://ivtvdriver.org/index.php/Firmware If you type Code: lspci at the console, do you get a line that looks something like this: 0000:00:0f.0 Multimedia video controller: Internext Compression Inc iTVC16 (CX23416) MPEG-2 Encoder (rev 01) Paul

i do find the card in the result lspci, listed as: 0000:02:01.0 Multimedia video controller: Internext Compression Inc iTVC16 (CX23416) MPEG-2 Encoder (rev 01) Is it possible that I have conflicting hardware somewhere? I am running: Intel 82801 motherboard with 2ghz proc nVidia RIVA TNT2 64 video card Lucent Microelectronics FW323 firewire card Western Digital 40gb hard drive Will check into updating the firmware, also going to try removing the firewire card and swapping video card to check for possible conflicts. Thanks for you help so far!

Ok, here is an update I removed the firewire card (not in use anyway) and installed the firmware availible from ivtv, no change in the the mythtv-setup Capture card section. I still see no default inputs. I still get the 'error -19 reading Hauppage eeprom' Is there any better information I could provide?

I'm also using a Mac to access my Knoppmyth box. To use SSH to get to it: - On the mac, open a terminal box -- I think you can find terminal in the apps folder -- You could think of the terminal box as the Mac equiv. of a CMD window in Win32 Once that terminal window is open: - type ssh -l root 192.168.x.x (your mythbox IP) -- the -l root is short for "use the login account of root" -- you could also use -l mythtv or -l (your username that you setup at install) The Mac will 'warn' you that you are about to trust the IP, and when you say 'Yes' it will add the key string of the Knoppmyth box (I know I'm saying this wrong, but it doesn't matter) to your list of trusted ssh IP's. SO .. this means that when you reload your Knoppmyth box (and you WILL be reloading this over and over and over ...) you will have to clear out that IP address from your trusted ssh list, or give your rebuilt Knoppmyth box a different IP.

StephenNelson wrote: First, I would like to thank this forum for creating such a useful resource, it was invaluable in helping me decide to go with knoppmyth in the first place. However, I am having trouble getting my PVR-150 non MCE to work in R5A30 (running frontend and backend on the same machine), and have been unable despite massive googling to find relevant (R5A30) information regarding this card and my specific problems. If I have managed to miss something please forgive me and simply point (shove) me in the right direction. I am pretty much n00b but my exploration so far has educated me in the basics (and I mean basic). Getting on with it: After successfully installing knoppmyth: 1. General Settings left alone 2. Capture cards (here is where it gets tricky) I enter the capture cards menu Select new capture card Set the card type to MPEG-2 Encoder card I see /dev/video0 in the Video device section but the Default input section is empty. If I scroll through the Video Device options (/dev/video1...10..ect) I still get nothing in the Default input section. I haven't taken the plunge and upgraded to RA30 at this point, but in RA26, I found several places that pointed out to choose the PVR250/350 rather than mpeg2 encoder. I'm using a PVR500MCE and it works quite well. --joseph

I chose the 150 for financial reasons, but if I continue to have these problems I might have to fork out the extra dough and try something else. The frustrating part is that there seems to be many users who have this card running without issue. None of my hardware as far as I can tell is on the "naughty" list, in theory, my setup should be running like clockwork off a basic knoppmyth install.

If I hadn't just done an emergency data recovery for a local business I never would've been able to gather up the cash for the PVR-500 myself. When you get back 5 years worth of non-backed up data they tend to be grateful ($$). What I meant to say--or possibly didn't make clear: When you set up the new capture card when using the PVR-150 or PVR-500, don't choose "Mpeg2 Encoder" from the menu. Choose the option for "PVR-250/350". The PVR-500MCE is the same process (except you do it once for /dev/video0 and once as /dev/video1--default choices for a single-card PVR-500 setup). As far as the setup goes, I beat my head against the wall trying to get the "mpeg2 encoder" option working--only to find out that I needed to choose the PVR option. Give it a whirl, it worked for me. --joseph

Joseph, Thanks for the advice, but in my setup menu, there is no seperate option for a MPEG-2 encoder card and the 250-350, rather i see: "MPEG-2 encoder card (PVR-250, PVR-350)" all in one line in the menu. Maybe this is different between RA26 and RA30, or is there somewhere else where I should be making the distinction? When I select this card type, the Video device section displays /dev/video0, but the Default input section is blank and empty... did you run into the same thing in RA26?

I'm no expert in all this. 5A26 is the only one I've tried (as far as Knoppmyth is concerned). When I configured it a few weeks ago, I remember there being a PVR option and a Encoder option as well as one or two others. I'll take a look at my setup when I get home and let you know what it looks like for sure. I don't think I've run into the blank line problem myself. I do have to say though, Knoppmyth is a whole lot easier than a complete build from scratch--although I have done that as well. I have found that it is useful to do a build-from-scratch version (even if it is for no other reason than to get more exposure). Have you tried the 5A26 version? --joseph

I did try RA26, but I was downloading 30 as I installed it, so when it didn't work flawlessly I ditched it for 30 as soon as I had my disk burned. I just saw that RA30.1 is out, so I will try slapping that on the system as soon as I can get on a decent speed network to download it. Not sure if it will help me, but the post on the homepage said they "squashed a few bugs" that popped up so... we'll see. Other than that, while the thought of building up a system from Ubuntu or another distro scares me, there is documentation for getting my specific card to work with myth. Worth a shot.
