My second try at this message... Darn hotmail.
I had used KnoppMyth to install Myth on the box in question. Having quickly
run out of disk space, I installed a bigger drive and started over. After a
successful install, I followed the instructions on
http://ivtv.writeme.ch/tiki-index.php?page=TvOutHowto
All the tests passed fine. I can watch TV just fine using "dd if=/dev/video
of=/dev/video16 bs=64k". I then modified the XF86Config-4 PVR-350 example
provided to match my mouse and lspci information for the Hauppauge card.
This got the GUI on my TV successfully.
Then I applied the patch as per instructions on
http://membres.lycos.fr/badzzzz
to fix the DMA issue, just as I'd done on the original install. After
rebooting, everything comes up fine and I can watch TV but it's jerky. So
then I went to the TV/Playback setting and selected to use the PVR-350 MPEG
decoder. Now when I try watching TV I get only sound and a blank picture!
The sound is coming out of the connector on the PVR-350 and not the sound
card so the decoder is doing something. I can't find anything wrong in
/var/log/messages. I'm at a loss for what to do now.
