That's how I got it to work. One additional note is that by default, MythTV gets confused and doesn't want to release the digital driver. To fix this, you'll have to go to the additional options button (the one on the right - I forget the exact name) in the digital tuner settings. There will be two settings you'll need to examine: you want to turn "Open DVB card on demand" to checked, and want to uncheck "Use DVB Card for active EIT scan" (The active EIT scan is what's keeping the digital side open. - previous email on the topic: http://www.isely.net/pipermail/pvrusb2/2009-January/002048.html) This will allow you to actually switch over to the analog tuner. However, MythTV will no longer scan the over-the-air programming guide that comes with digital TV. If you use Schedules Direct or do all your recording via manual recording it's not a big issue, but if you want to do programming guide recording with over-the-air guide it doesn't work so well. (MythTV won't change channels to scan for guide information, so you won't get any new info until you manually change the channel - with OTA info only extending 12-36 hours, you're likely to miss a recording that way.) _______________________________________________ pvrusb2 mailing list [email protected] http://www.isely.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pvrusb2
