Hi, I'm very frustrated, and I know this is not really mythTV specific,
but since MythTV is what I'm really wanting to use I decided to post
here as a last resort to reverting to WindowsXP/Snapstream (ugh!).
So, I'm running Debian Sid, all latest updates, stock kernel 2.4.26.
ATI Radeon 9800PRO, with ATI drivers XFree86 4.3.0. IvTV module is
using the latest Hauppague driver. Below is a list of modules I'm
currently running and also a SNIP from my dmesg.
My problem is when I do 'cat /dev/video0 > /tmp/1.mpg' and then view it
with vlc/xine all I get is a solid blue/black screen playback (the same
thing happens when I use LiveTV in MythTV). It seems everything is
setup correctly, and I'm not getting *any* errors at all from any logs I
can find. I've tried all 9 inputs (using test_ioctl), trying to find
the right one, same thing everytime. Is there somthing I'm missing?
Has anyone seen this before? I'd love to become a useful part of this
community, but I'm frustrated beyond belief. Thanks for any help/hints
you can provide!!
