Sounds like a packaging error from someone who was short on sleep...

Did anyone figure out this problem? It is still holding me up.

well I believe you will find that problem is cause by libxv wanting to overwrite files that are in another package. if you force the overwrite everything should fall into place, however this should not happen just upgrading the debs for mythtv. that is if you didn't use apt-get upgrade.

I follow this and everything works great...well..at least everything works but I noticed the TV quality is just bad. The color seems to be dithered. I read somewhere that I have to recompile MythTV to get it to work with the new nvidia driver?!?! I really hope I dont, cause I've never done that...yet...

Huhn? My system has two things that I've "compiled" the latest NVidia dirvers which their installer compiles it for you, and the ivtv driver (100z) mainly because I was trying to get closed captioning working. Both were total no-brainers. What exactly is it you think you need to compile and why?

well if you are using xvmc, and the new nvidia drivers a recompile of mythtv may be in order, because the version with knoppmyth was compiled with the xvmc from the older nvidia drivers.

That sounds like a pretty good guess. Cesman has instructions on how to copy stuff off an install CD around here somewhere. Basically you boot from the CD into rescue or standalone mode, mount your HD, and copy from /usr/src on the CD over to the HD.

welp..i rebooted my box while trying to play around with my CPU voltage (the CPU temp is at 65C idle - I think my friend gave me a bad CPU but this will be replaced later) and the picture quality is bad to normal...the problem is now I get the message "Error opening audio device (/dev/dsp), the error was: No such device". anyone have any idea where I should go about trouble shooting this?

"back to normal" or "bad to sort of OK"?
In any case here are directions for getting something from the CD to your HD.
1) Download the ISO image, burn it to a CD, boot the machince from that CD.
2) When the boot: prompt comes up say "tv" (actually expert mode and 640x480 is probably more readable but is also more complicated).
3) When the option menu comes up chose option 6 "exit to a prompt"
4) At the # prompt type teh following command to mount your root partition (this may be different if you did a custom install).
Code: mount /mnt/hda1 5) cd to /usr/src/ and run this command: Code: tar cf - r4v5_src | ( cd /mnt/hda1/usr/src ; tar xvf - )
6) It should be obvious at this point tohat you can copy anything else you want from the CD image to your HD.
7) If you get cloop errors please let us know. Despite a god md5sum I had a problem with the mplayer source file and am currently making a second burn to see if the problem is in the ISO or the original CD burn.

Thanks for the wonderful step by step direction...turns out something major is wierd with the hardware. I did lspci and no audio showed up, after couple reboots, X stop starting. something about can't find /dev/video0. At the end, I open up my case, bump the voltage back to normal, and let it run while I wait for my new CPU.

according to the release notes, .16 includes:
Search Based Recording
This will allow you to set up recording rules for your saved program searches. This is similar to Tivo's "wish list" auto-recording feature.
and
"MythWeather now has animated radar maps."
I upgraded via the debs, but on my system, neither of these features is available. Also, the newsmodule seems to be broken as mentioned earlier. Any suggestions?

Although I can think of a good use right now... nathansvt wrote: "MythWeather now has animated radar maps." I've actually seen this. It's very cool. Of course if the source it's using to get the maps doesn't have them it won't work regardless. nathansvt wrote: I upgraded via the debs, but on my system, neither of these features is available.

I've described how to fix the news module elsewhere. All it takes is getting the source (I got it off of the R4V5 CD) and recompiling. Search for posting by me that mentions myhtweather and make.
