<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> I've been on this list for a
couple of years now and I typically use it to pick up little tricks others
generously offer or to bridge the syntax gap from BSD to Linux and help me
troubleshoot my own system. This last week I've had a problem I can't quite
grasp. I am running Mythdora 10.21 which was updated to .22 through
atrpms. I have been running a pvr-500 for a couple of years with one tuner
capturing DirecTv and the other OTA both through s-video. After
running .22 for a week and not having any real problems I decided to try my
HD-pvr in standard definition. I've gone through the wiki page a dozen
times updated the firmware on a windows machine twice, deleted and re-setup the
capture cards in setup and searched both this and Mythdora's site and
still have no clue what to do next.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> I can cat /dev/video0
>file.ts and get a great recording but if I try to record or play
live TV through Myth the "blue light" comes on for about
2 seconds goes out and the recording fails. I have found similar logs to
mine but nothing that makes any difference to my system. I've decided I'm
either gone blind or stupid and I would guess someone here could give
me clue which one is the more likely. My pvr-500 still works the
HD-pvr uses /bin/true for channel change and backend log entry is typical.
Also similar log files are shown in the links below with no helpful
answers. </FONT></DIV>
