Turning off closed-captions in mythtv-settings fixed this for me. It turns out that if I captured from any of the tuners before running myth after a reboot, everything was fine. So i can live without CC, but I'm wondering why that would interfere with a serial IR receiver? Mike P.S. Aside from this last problem, I've had a rock-solid setup for a while now, and owe that to all of the hard work that you all have been doing. _______________________________________________ ivtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://ivtvdriver.org/mailman/listinfo/ivtv-users
