I just went through this myself. You need to configure your
VIDEO_GROUPS. Freevo is currently trying to use mplayer tv:// which does
not work with ivtv. edit your local_conf as follows and give it another
shot. This was just added to the wiki yesterday.
VIDEO_GROUPS = [
VideoGroup(vdev='/dev/video0',
adev=None,
input_type='tuner',
input_num=4,
tuner_norm='NTSC',
tuner_chanlist='us-cable',
desc='Regular cable',
group_type='ivtv',
recordable=True),
]
