Hi all, I've been going round and round with this issue and am out of ideas. I am trying to get MythTV to work with a Hauppauge WinTV PVR-350, Fedora Core 3, 2.6.10-1.766_FC3. The IVTV drivers appear fine, I can get a video signal in and play it out into a TV just fine and change channels with the ptune-ui.pl module. I'm having a little trouble getting MythTV to start up. I get it running and when I select "watch tv", I get a blank screen. When I try to record a show, it appears to attempt to do so but I get the following in the mythbackend.log: My mythtv version is 0.17-48. I have a registration on zap2it.com and I get the listings downloaded with mythfilldatabase. Front end and back end are on same system. I'm not quite a linux expert but have a good working knowledge of unix/linux operating systems - I'm more or less doing this as a learning experience.
