I have gone through the wiki and the forums and I am coming up empty handed. This is the error I am getting in my syslog:
Code: Feb 7 06:16:42 mythtvbackend kernel: ivtv: Unknown parameter `mixer_input'
Feb 7 06:16:42 mythtvbackend modprobe: FATAL: Error inserting ivtv (/lib/modules/2.6.13.2-chw-3/ivtv/backup/ivtv.ko): Unknown symbol in mod$
Feb 7 06:16:42 mythtvbackend modprobe: FATAL: Error running install command for ivtv
Feb 7 06:16:42 mythtvbackend pci.agent[3579]: ivtv: can't be loaded
Feb 7 06:16:42 mythtvbackend pci.agent[3579]: missing kernel or user mode driver ivtv
I followed tjc's instructions from here: http://www.knoppmythwiki.org/index.php?page=CompileIvtvI am trying to install a PVR-150 non MCE (model 1045). It shows up in lspci as: Code: 0000:00:07.0 Multimedia video controller: Internext Compression Inc iTVC16 (CX23416) MPEG-2 Encoder (rev 01)
Any help is appreciated.

Sounds like your /etc/mythtv/modules/ivtv is borked, or maybe /etc/modules
1) What version are you doing this on top of?
2) Did you get any interesting errors along the way? I'd recommend running through the procedure again and paying attention to any scary messages...
3) What does your /etc/mythtv/modules/ivtv look like? it should be something like this:
Code: root@black2:~# cat /etc/mythtv/modules/ivtv
alias char-major-81 videodev
alias char-major-61 lirc_i2c
options msp3400 once=1
install ivtv /sbin/modprobe tuner; /sbin/modprobe msp3400; /sbin/modprobe saa7115; /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install ivtv
remove ivtv /sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove ivtv && /sbin/modprobe -rsaa7115 && /sbin/modprobe -r msp3400 && /sbin/modprobe -r tuner

1) Clean install, this is my first time trying to setup a slave backend (master backend is running R5A16)
2)I'll get back to you on this one
3)
Code: root@mythtvbackend:~# cat /etc/mythtv/modules/ivtv
alias char-major-81 videodev
alias char-major-61 lirc_i2c
#options ivtv debug=1
#options tuner type=2
options msp3400 once=1
install ivtv /sbin/modprobe tuner; /sbin/modprobe msp3400; /sbin/modprobe saa7115; /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install ivtv
remove ivtv /sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove ivtv && /sbin/modprobe -r saa7115 && /sbin/modprobe -r msp3400 && /sbin/modprobe -r tuner

Since I don't even remeber what version of MythTV was used in R5A16 _insert standard warning about incompatible protocol versions here_.
Oh, and did you remember to update the firmware too? The updated instructions should make that a lead pipe cinch.

According to the changelog, R5A16 is running MythTV 0.18.1.
I followed your instructions at this link verbatim:
http://www.knoppmythwiki.org/index.php?page=CompileIvtv
(everything under "Directions for upgrading R5A22 or later to 0.4.2 for the PVR-150 and PVR-500 fixes.")
I understand that I may have protocol version issues, but should that be preventing ivtv from setting up the card properly? I eventually plan on turning this slave backend into the master backend, but I would like to iron out the bugs around setting up this card first. I thought it would be easier to just get a second tuner up until I was ready to put the time towards migrating. I've probably spent more time on this now than I would have if i'd just migrated...
At this point i've moved the card onto a new pci slot and i'm re-installing Knoppmyth. If this doesn't work maybe I'll try my R5A16 disk. The reason I was using the R5A30.2 was that I thought I had seen in the forums that the new versions of Knoppmyth supported PVR-150s and 500s from the get-go.

Yeah but I've revised these three times in the last week.  The question was more "Try the new procedure (as of ~9PMEST) to make sure you've got good firmware." Did you get good md5sum values? kmkittre wrote: should that be preventing ivtv from setting up the card properly? Nope. It was just a "future shock" warning. kmkittre wrote: At this point i've moved the card onto a new pci slot and i'm re-installing Knoppmyth. If this doesn't work maybe I'll try my R5A16 disk.

New slot is a worth a shot, but this seems more like bad software or config. The errors are bizarre especially if it's a new and fairly vanilla install. If you'd followed some convulted path I'd worry that you had two conflicting versions of the driver and were mixing and matching incompatible tuner modules. Did you boot the CD with the "testcd" option to make sure it's not a bad burn?
OBTW - You do realize that if you wget something twice it doesn't normally overwrite right? You may want to try:
Code: md5sum /usr/src/ivtv-0.4.2.tar.gz*
rm /usr/src/ivtv-0.4.2.tar.gz*
wget http://dl.ivtvdriver.org/ivtv/archive/0.4.x/ivtv-0.4.2.tar.gz
md5sum /usr/src/ivtv-0.4.2.tar.gz*
To make sure that it's a good download.

yeah, thanks for the help tjc. I re-installed and now the card seems to be working as-is (at least it is recognizing it now...)
So, now here's my question. Is it worth trying to upgrade to the newest ivtv drivers, or should I just leave well enough alone?

Okay, now it all looks good, but when I look at my encoder status on mythtweb it says:

For the PVR-150 0.4.2 is supposed to fix the i2c related problems where your remote quits working and the firmware needs to be reset/reloaded to cure it.
Lots of folks have done the upgrade following the directions and said it worked for them. YMMV. The only problems I had were botching the firmare install once (don't ask, lack of sleep made me stupid  ) and figuring out the two module order/option config file things. After writing it up I went through the directions from end to end to verify them.

well, i'm not planning on running a frontend on this box, so I guess upgrading those drivers is pretty useless?
Any suggestions on why the tuner is saying it is not connected?

Any more nuggets of wisdom, tjc? Anyone? I'm kinda stuck here. I'm not seeing anyone else that has this problem...
