OK, so inside MythTV I only seem to get one device. (/dev/v4l/video0) It's currently recording. When I try to access the second device (/dev/v4l/video1) Myth isn't seeign it yet. Outside of Myth I'm told that I cannot record on video 0, which is sensible since Myth is reocrding there right now: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ cat /dev/video0 >test1.mpeg cat: /dev/video0: Device or resource busy [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ However I can record on /dev/video1, and it's on channel 4 while Myth is recording channel 2, so it seems that both tuners are indeed working Now, why didnt my setup of the second tuner work? I think that's more a question for the MythTV list once I do some study. Anyway, it seems that things are in good shape WRT ivtv.
