Only to say "me too". With the added point that if I modprobe ivtv in rc.local, then I have to restart mythbackend before I can watch live tv. Otherwise I get about 3 seconds of video before it freezes and eventually times out. I guess recordings will fail in a similar manner, but at the moment I use live tv as a test after a reboot. This is with ivtv 3.4m from atrpms. Chris _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
