[mythtv-users] Re: Tuner problems with PVR-350

2005-01-30 Thread Ellen Spertus
Hugo,

Your modprobe.conf lines were a big help.  The tuner is now working. 
Next step, sound.  (I see there are some other threads on that.)

Thanks very much.

[mythtv-users] Tuner problems with PVR-350

2005-01-28 Thread Ellen Spertus
I just rebuilt my system with Fedora Core 3 according to Jarod's
instructions.  I have a PVR-350 card, and, while I can get sound and
video, I cannot change channels.  I first noticed this problem when I
ran the following two commands simultaneously:

# /usr/lib/ivtv/ptune-ui.pl &
# mplayer -vo xv /dev/video0

Changing channels through ptune-ui had no effect on the image.  The
same thing happened when I tried changing channels with
mythtvfrontend.  (It's stuck on the Asian channel.)

Here are my settings from mythtvsetup:

Capture Card Setup
- Card type: MPEG-2 Encoder (PVR-250, PVR-350)
- Default input: Tuner 0
- All other settings in their default positions

Imput connections:
- [MPEG : /dev/video0] (Tuner 0) -> cable

I defined cable under Video sources.

The relevant output of "lspci -v" is:

02:0d.0 Multimedia video controller: Internext Compression Inc iTVC15
MPEG-2 Encoder (rev 01)
Subsystem: Hauppauge computer works Inc. WinTV PVR-350
Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 3
Memory at f000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=64M]
Capabilities: [44] Power Management version 2

The results of "ivtvctl -a" appear at the end of this message.

The video is also fuzzy.  When I connect the co-ax straight from the
wall to the TV, I have no trouble with picture quality or changing
channels.

Any suggestions?

Ellen

[mythtv-users] San Francisco installation?

2005-01-18 Thread Ellen Spertus
My mythtv installation is messed up, and, while I'm confident I could
reinstall everything (as I have before), I currently am working more
than full-time and would rather pay someone to set it up.

If you would be interested in setting up a system in San Francisco,
email me for details.

Thanks.

[mythtv-users] How to apt-get FC3 kernel?

2005-01-09 Thread Ellen Spertus
I'd like to upgrade to FC3, per Jarod's instructions
(http://wilsonet.com/mythtv/fcmyth.php#apt).  When I enter:

apt-get install kernel=2.6.9-1.724_FC3

I get an error:

Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
E: Version ='2.6.9-1.724_FC3' for 'kernel' was not found

My current kernel is 2.4.22-1.2197.nptl_51.rhfc1.at.

Can anyone tell me what kernel I should request for FC3 or, better
yet, where I can find a list of the latest kernels accessible through
apt-get?

Thank you.
