Tyler,

Thanks a lot! Everything is working great now, I'm able to capture with both tuners and I've got everything set up through mythtv.

For anyone else who may be reading this, I had to remove all tuners from the kernel (both video and radio) before this would work.  I'm not sure if certain drivers would still cooperate, but I didn't need these anymore anyway.  Essentially, I have v4l enabled and nothing else.  Also, I'm not sure if it helped or not, but one of the README files states that if you don't have v4l2 patched into your kernel, you must copy   ivtv/utils/videodev2.h to ivtv/driver/ then recompile (I suggest doing a `make clean` first, just in case).

Just out of curiosity would a standard WinTV card be compatible with these drivers? I thought they required bttv as well as a Phillips tuner, do the ivtv drivers compensate for both of these?  I was thinking about reinserting my old WinTV card as a backup, maybe I'm just being greedy though!

Anyway, great job guys -- thanks for all the help!

Is it possible that other drivers that I have compiled into my kernel
are causing problems? For example, if I have bttv and/or tuners
compiled in (not as modules), would this have any effect on ivtv?
Currently, under "Multimedia Devices", I have V4L enabled. Then under
that I have BT848,  SAB3036, and Philips SAA7134, and Conexant 2388x
enabled.
    

Yes, that is exactly the problem.  You need to have 'tuner' not compiled
into the kernel, but it will be if those are.

So, the tuner.ko from ivtv isn't loading (can't have two), and the tuner
in the kernel doesn't have the right tuner definitions.
