[Freevo-users] direcfb and 2 heads..

2003-07-18 Thread Mike Lewis
Or really, is there any way to get the g400 heads working seprate from each other? I want freevo on the TV-head and x11, or at least gnome, on he other head.. Is this a possiblity?? I was thinking directfb was the way to go but it looks like you can only see the TV out when directfb is in use..

I understand the issues with the number of incompatible RPM distributions, all with different glibc's etc. In some ways, that's what makes Debian an easier target; same with Gentoo, since you just say use version x of Debian or Gentoo Part of my objection, is that I'm not fond of all in one

Has anyone set up Freevo with a WinTV PVR 350 card? I need to get a capture card and would like to get the 350 as it has the onboard mpeg decoder and tv out. I think in the long run I would be happier with this card if it is supported. Does anyone have any experience with it? Good OR bad! Paul

Cool Simon, I just bought a WinTV 250 to replace my old ADS Channel Surfer bttv card. I tried installing the WinTV card last night but I'm having driver issues. Did you have to recompile your kernel with the ivtv drivers as modules? Any pointers on setting this WinTV card up would be

If this is the PVR250, I didn't need to patch my kernel at all; just extract the firmware, build the modules, and modprobe them. The only weirdness was that the documentation claims that the tuner input is input 0, but in my card, it was 4. On Fri, Jul 18, 2003 at 09:13:41AM -0700, Ralph Buchanan

I just installed a PVR250 last night as well and didn't have to patch or recompile my kernel either. I also had to set the tuner input to 4 instead of the stated 0. I actually found the mythtv docs had some helpful information on setting the card up as well. These are the docs I found helpful:

In the build instructions for the modules, it says that you don't need to patch the kernel... V4L2 headers are required for ivyTV to compile. You can either patch your kernel with v4l2 headers or copy the included videodev2.h from the utils/ directory to the driver/ directory. On Fri,

You say that you did not have to do anything to the kernel for the 250, Does this hold true for the 350 or am I getting into a kernel rebuild. I'm not sure I'm up for that but at the cost of a 250 I would hate to but it now and later wish I had popped for the 350 when all of its features are

As far as I know, they both use the same encoder chip, so you wouldn't need to do anything different for the 350. Still, it's worth doing the kernel patch if you can. On Fri, Jul 18, 2003 at 03:32:54PM -0500, Paul Onley wrote: You say that you did not have to do anything to the kernel for the
