You're right, there are a few posts reporting that tv-out doesn't work
on this model but when I bought this card I also found posts reporting
that this card didn't work at all so right now captures works like a
charm, X works like a charm, and ivtv-fb loads up without any problems
why not the decoder ?

I also noticed that you said you have a PVR-350 (model 992).
I think model 990 is the most common, have you done a search on the archive on 
"992" ???  Hopefully not, but it might be a compatibility problem. If it were I 
would imagine there is some mention of it in the archive. Sorry don't mean to scare you.

No, I've not been very clear. All the command lines were done while X
wasn't launched on the PVR-350, I did them for testing purposes. But
when starting X on the PVR-350 to use mythtv, the myth frontend is
properly displayed but when attempting to play livetv or a recording I
get no video or really really poor framerate ( I didn't forget to
check the box USE PVR-350 HARDWARE in the mythtv setup ).
So I think the problem is related to the decoder.

Subject: [ivtv-devel] X working on PVR-350 but MPEG decoder doesn't



Hi,

I want to use the PVR-350 output for mythtv. I managed to get X
working on the PVR-350 (with the latest ivtvdev v0.8 driver) anr
recording works very well but the decoder doesn't work or
sometimes at
really really poor framerate.
When I do :
cat /dev/video0 > tmp.mpg
followed by
dd if=tmp.mpg of=/dev/video16 bs=64k
I get really poor framerate ( near 1 frame/sec )
and when I do :
dd if=/dev/video0 of=/dev/video16 bs=64k
after variable time dmesg is full filled with this message


until I


stop dd :
...
ivtv ENC IRQ OVERFLOW STEALING A BUFFER 1024 CURRENTLY ALLOCATED
...

I tried a lot of kernel configs, numerous ivtv versions, some bios
settings changes but nothing made the decoder working.


Currently I


work with :
Gentoo Linux 2.6.10-r4 with udev
bttv-0.9.15
ivtv-0.3.2b
on an Asus Pundit
with 512 MB ram, Celeron 2GHz and a PVR-350 (model 992)

Does someone have the same problem or know what this error

means and


maybe how to solve it ? I'd really appreciate too if people having
success with the PVR-350 output on a similar setup than mine could
send me (off list to avoid flooding the mailing-list) the


config files


they used to get it working.

Thanks, Nicolas
