Searching this for a day with no results- basically, everything works great in R5D1 except for the Hauppauge PVR-150, which worked great in R5E50 (dropped back to R5D1 because some other things weren't working right).

Compiled new ivtv drivers )7.4, since that's kernel specific), set the tuner type manually, dmesg gives me this for ivtv:

Code:

ivtv:  ==================== START INIT IVTV ====================
ivtv:  version 0.7.4 (tagged release) loading
ivtv:  Linux version: 2.6.17-chw-8 SMP preempt mod_unload 586 gcc-3.4

ivtv:  the START INIT IVTV and END INIT IVTV lines, along with
ivtv:  any module options, when mailing the ivtv-users mailinglist.

ivtv:  ====================  END INIT IVTV  ====================

When trying to tune a regular station I get this in mythbackend.log:

Code:

2007-02-20 00:13:15.183 MainServer::HandleAnnounce Playback
2007-02-20 00:13:15.186 adding: mythtv as a client (events: 0)
2007-02-20 00:13:15.193 TVRec(2): Changing from None to WatchingLiveTV
Error getting codec params
IVTV_IOC_G_CODEC:: Bad address
2007-02-20 00:13:41.792 TVRec(2): Changing from WatchingLiveTV to None

Any ideas?

Looks like a possible solution here:

http://ivtvdriver.org/pipermail/ivtv-users/2006-June/003332.html

From the link:

That's what you get for using bleeding edge code: the G/S_CODEC ioctls
> are removed and replaced by a new mpeg encoder API

So I'm going to try and drop back to 0.7.1. Worst case I guess I could go to myth 0.20. We'll see how it goes.

Followup to this issue- turns out the PVR-150 works great when its the only card in the system. But when I ADD a HD5500, it borks. still looking for the solution.

Whups. Turns out it was actually video1 and I kept trying video0. I kept trying video0 because it said something about tuner#0 in dmesg. Turns out the place to look is here:
(as root)
ivtv-detect

Lots of good info.
