I had problems with livetv not working as well, which is why i pulled the HD3000 initially.
If you look at the capture card setup in mythtv-setup, myth is going to
grab whatever is listed first when you choose to watch liveTV.
So, if this screen (mythtv-setup, option 2) says 'DVB' then
'PVR-250'

If you say 'yes' to the question at the start about clearing your
capture cards, then you'll lose everything you have set up so far.
So, step 1 - back up your mysql table! (if you haven't done this
already). I haven't read back in the log, but back up your

After almost 5 months of work, I finally have a running MythTV
system! I'm looking forward to having real recording, show
archives, and all of those fun things you can do with Myth. It's
been a pretty big project, and I ran into quite a few roadblocks along
the way. I've put many of my notes onl
hack that I can use in the interim to point "watch
recordings" to mplayer instead of the internal player? trying to find

If you're seeing buttons using irw, i'd check your .lircrc files (
/home//.lircrc & /home//.mythtv/lircrc )
ensure they have the correct permissions AND are coded correctly for
your remote (using the commands in the lircd file).
or, better yet, copy the .lircrc files from your root folder and
c
First, are you sure that lircd is running @ startup?
Then, log in as your user and test the remote using irw. If you're
getting something there, your local .lircrc is probably non-existant
or has bad permissions.
(that was my problem)

I told myth to record directly into the video library and can watch it
through there.
So, I know the card is good. What is different between watching 'live
tv' / 'prerecorded tv' and the mpgs?

I'm not real worried about the modprobing.. that's easily fixed with
a script. I re-emerged with the -opengl and -nvidia flags in the USE

I've been working on a MythTV box for a few months now, and it's been
one trouble after another.
Word of caution: Pundit-R's don't seem to like SATA HDD and PATA DVD
drives together.
I've put in a Hauppauge PVR-250 and a 160GB PATA drive along with the
DVD-RW drive.
The system is running Gentoo
