I just upgraded a system from hardy->lucid and tested a PVR500 without any problems w/ that new mythtv build personally.
@jerkface: So, I am suspecting there is something else broken here with your config other than the not properly setting groups for mythbackend. Can you please show the output of the following: # groups mythtv # ps aux | grep ^mythtv # cat /etc/default/mythtv-backend # cat /etc/init/mythtv-backend.conf Also please attach your backend log. @Thomas Templin: Can you please verify with the new build that things are fine for you too? ** Changed in: mythtv (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- mythtv Hauppauge HVR-1600 Problem with capture cards https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/524822 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mythbuntu Bug Team, which is subscribed to mythtv in ubuntu. Status in “mythtv” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Binary package hint: mythtv 1) 10.04 Alpha 2) mythtv-backend: Installed: 0.23.0~trunk23567-0ubuntu3 3) cx18 module is loading without errors, and I can record video by $cat /dev/video0 > test.mpg, so mythtv should not be reporting any errors when it starts, or when a frontend tries to start watching live tv, and it should record scheduled recordings on the cards 2 available inputs. 4) mythtv system status log entries are filling up with: Problem with capture card Card 1failed init Trying to watch live tv gives this error message: Error: MythTV is using all inputs, but there are no active recordings? Also, the backend is not recording any scheduled recordings. 5) Additional information: I rebuilt the module and reinstalled the firmware for it following the instructions here: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Hauppauge_HVR-1600 but mythtv still is reporting the same errors. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~mythbuntu-bugs Post to : mythbuntu-bugs@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~mythbuntu-bugs More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
