[mythtv-users] PVR 350 TV out

[Chris Martin]

I've been following Jarod's guide for FC3, and have got most things
working.  Unfortunately I'm having great difficulty getting my PVR
350's TV out to work.

If I run the commands

# /sbin/rmmod saa7127
# /sbin/modprobe saa7127 test_image=1

I see the test pattern correctly,  however if I try to pipe video
through the tv out, with the commands:

# /usr/bin/ivtvfbctl /dev/fb1 -noglobalalpha -localalpha
# dd if=/dev/video0 of=/dev/video16 bs=64k

I just get what looks like a blank screen with a load of interference overlayed.

I've also tried to run X through the tv out, using the appropriate
xorg.conf file.  In this case I get a static screen made up of lots of
tiny dots that looks pink/purple/blue from a distance.

Does anybody have any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks,

Chris
