Re: [mythtv-users] Re: Greater Toronto Area
I had the same problem setting up a PVR-500MCE (treated as 2 PVR-150MCE's on one card by ivtv). I did some research online and found that ivtv does not (yet?) support the S-Video on the PVR-150MCE and PVR-500MCE. I think, but am not sure, that hardware scaling is not yet supported, either(i.e., you must capture at 720 x 480). Hopefully some kind soul is working on those features. Other than that, my PVR-500MCE is working like a champ!

[mythtv-users] Re: Greater Toronto Area
My two problems have been solved by simply switching the cards. Setup: FC3, kernel 2.6.11, Myth 0.18.1 and ivtv 0.3.4w (from ATrpms) Card 1) PVR250 in (/dev/video0) connected to analog cable via coax Problem: Two channels were without sound (TV5 and RDI) Card 2) PVR150MCE in (/dev/video1) connected to a cable STB via S-Video Problem: Video signal in b/w on all channels. Sound is OK I physically switched the two cards so the new setup is: Card 1) PVR150MCE (/dev/video0) connected to analog cable via coax Problem solved: All channels now have sound Card 2) PVR250 (/dev/video1) connected to a cable STB via S-Video Problem solved: Audio and video signal in colour on all channels Conclusion: The 250 has a problem with coax input on certain channels and the 150 has a problem with S-Video input.

[mythtv-users] Re: Greater Toronto Area
I am with Videotron in Quebec City and I had problem consistent with what you describe with TV5 (channel 15) on analog (recorded with a PVR 250 retail). The problem occured with any combination MythTV versions 0.17 and all versions of 0.18, FC3 kernels 2.6.10 and 2.6.11 and various versions of ivtv 0.3x. I also have the occasional problem with RDI (cable 19), a CBC/Radio-Canada network. I might add that both channels are fine in digital when recorded by my other card, a PVR-150MCE, and the coax input of the 250 has sound on channels 15 and 19 when I first tested the card on a Windows box (both with the Hauppauge software and with GB-PVR on Windows) So this problem is not related to the CBC, it's probably related to ivtv. Over the long weekend, I will try to switch the inputs of both cards to see if it makes a difference. Claude Anyone living in the GTA? I've got my myth setup working awesome with one small problem, CBC (channel 6 on cogeco in Oakville) doesn't seem to record audio. Anyone else in the area with the same problem (and hopefully a fix :) ___ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
