I have an ultraview plus dvb-t card, which apparently is a rebadged DVICO plus card.

Except that it doesn't get detected, on doing some hunting around, i came across this.

It's ok... I just worked it out. I got my hands on an Ultraview HDTV DVB-T Plus, which is just a rebadged DVICO Plus.

Turns out my problem was the driver was not identifying the card properly. Added card=21 as an option when loading the driver, and whalla!

Just need to work out how to tune the bloody thing now. :)


How do i actually do this, is it a config file in /etc i edit or is there more to it then that..

Try adding these lines to /etc/mythtv/modules/bttv
Code:
alias char-major-81 cx88-dvb
options cx88xx card=21

(Got this partially from http://bc.whirlpool.net.au/forum-replie ... 306387&p=2 )

woo hoo, the card now seems to be detected and appears in mythtv..

Now another snag, when i go into mythtv it says all available cards are being used, so i hunted around and found a scan for channels, when i choose to schan for channels, it just sits there doing nothing..

After a while, i get the error "Error tuning to transport"

any ideas?

/etc/init.d/mythtv-backend stop
