Hi,

At the risk of being completely flamed here, in my experience the PVR 500
wont work with most VIA chipsets.
I have tried it in a ASROCK K7 AMD2400 board and a VIA EPIA and both did
exactly the same as yours.

It had nothing to do with the power supply as has been highlighted in a
different post. Read the recommended hardware requirements and it will tell
you:
Processor requirements: PentiumR IV processor 1.2GHz or faster for TV pause
with full screen playback

I changed to a P4 3Ghz Intel and all is good. Sorry to be the bearer of bad
news.

Cheers
Grant

Subject: [ivtv-devel] PVR500 & VIA

Hey all,

Well, I've hit a new little snag. I've been shuffling around machines since
I got the PATA card, and I've set up this Athlon XP 1700 as my test machine
for myth and the PVR500...

However, when I tried 0.3.2i, I got about two seconds worth of data before
the machine reset.

And I tried f, and I got about 20 seconds worth of digitally noisy data
before the machine reset.

then I tried megapatched e, and I got variable lengths of noisy data before
the machine reset.

I recall seeing somewhere that there was an issue with motherboards with VIA
chipsets... Is this actually true? I also tried turning off preemption, so I
have an 8kstacks uniprocessor kernel without preemption and it just simply
resets while decoding.

Anyone got any ideas?

Thanks,
Jason
