I've been away and so haven't tried any new versions since 0.3.2q or so. Picture quality was average at that time. Today I tried 0.3.4b with my tuner type 56 PVR500.
I have followed the Quicksetup readme to the letter and tried some video. I get a working picture, but the quality is quite poor. Most of the picture is purple and grey. Also there are vertical bars going across the screen. The picture has no sound. Is this as good as it gets right now, or is there stuff I'm doing wrong? I can upload an example of some video to my webspace if needed. Here is my relevant data: [modprobe.conf] options saa7127 i2c_enable=-1,-1 options cx25840 i2c_enable=1,1 no_black_magic=1 options wm8775 mixer=2 options ivtv ivtv_debug=1 tuner=56,56 [startup of ivtv] modprobe tveeprom modprobe ivtv ivtv_debug=1 tuner=56,56 ./ptune.pl --input /dev/video0 --frequency 203250 cat /dev/video0 > /tmp/test.mpg [log-messages] May 5 20:21:45 pvr ivtv: ==================== START INIT IVTV ==================== May 5 20:21:45 pvr ivtv: version 0.3.4 (b) loading May 5 20:21:45 pvr ivtv: Linux version: 2.6.11-gentoo-r7 preempt K7 4KSTACKS gcc-3.3 May 5 20:21:45 pvr ivtv: In case of problems please include the debug info May 5 20:21:45 pvr ivtv: between the START INIT IVTV and END INIT IVTV lines when May 5 20:21:45 pvr ivtv: mailing the ivtv-devel mailinglist.
