[mythtv-users] Re: PVR-350 almost running

[Marc Mosthav]

Just found that I get the same behaviour with:

dd if=/dev/video0 of=/dev/video16

I would therefore think that there seems to be a disagreement between the
frame buffer (which is running X) and video16 on how to display stuff on
TV-Out.
Anybody any thoughts?

Cheers,
Marc
