Hi all, I have a Dell 400SC and a Hauppage PVR-150. Full system specs here:
# PSU: Dell 250w # MOTHERBOARD: Dell, made by Intel (875P chipset) # CPU: P4 2.4GHz (hyperthreading disabled) # RAM: 512MB PC3200 # CPU HEATSINK: Stock Dell # NORTHBRIDGE HEATSINK: Passive # HDD: 250GB Seagate Barracuda SATA # GRAPHICS CARD: ATI 9xxxx series, 256MB # SOUNDCARD: Integrated # TUNER CARD: PVR-150 Based on research from the KnoppMyth forums, this should be supported just fine. In fact, KnoppMyth does install great and I have no problems with any hardware being recognized and the MythTV setup runs flawlessly. My problem occurs when I try to watch TV. The system freezes up hard, and becomes totally unresponsive. After reboot, there are only two log entries from before the freeze in /var/log/messages: Feb 13 21:25:46 mythtv -- MARK -- Feb 13 21:29:06 mythtv kernel: ivtv0: All encoder MPEG stream buffers are full. Dropping data. Feb 13 21:29:06 mythtv kernel: ivtv0: Cause: the application is not reading fast enough. Feb 13 21:41:48 mythtv syslogd 1.4.1#20: restart. The syslogd message is the first message logged when the system reboots. I can run this command just fine and see the video, so I know the driver is working: # cat /dev/video0 | xine stdin://mpeg2 So, really I'm trying to pin down the problem. I am running the latest release of KnoppMyth (Release 5 E50) and even upgraded MythTV from the latest in Subversion as detailed on their website. Since I can watch the video fine from xine, it's probably not an ivtv problem, but I'm running out of options and things to try. I have disabled hyperthreading, and also set all buffers to their maximum values to no effect. The PVR150 is brand new, but I did confirm that it's a 150 and not the 1600 as has been reported on the web recently. It seems to be recognized just fine as shown in the output below. So, does anyone have any ideas at all? Thanks in advance.
