[mythtv-users] PVR-350 TV and native Recordingsmooth, Transcodedand other video choppy

[John Harvey]

You bus id is not set.

Change 0x14 to 20.

Busid's are decimal (this is an X thing not a driver thing).

The change was deliberate to make single card systems force the busid to be
set properly. In the past single card systems with bad busid's ignored them
and then even more problems occurred when people created dual card systems
(ie 350 + vga card). So I decided to make it require the BusID for single
card systems.

Hi Kevin,

Yup, my BusID is set. As per my original post, the BusID is at 0x14 - What I
perhaps should have clarified is that I have made the necessary changes in
the XF86Config-4 file, including the BusID.   With the older version of the
ivtvdev driver, this gets the x driver working.  it's the newest drivers
that fail, claiming there's no adapter at ID 20.  I'm assuming it's making
the hex to binary conversion since my card is labeled at 0x14.

 

Keep in mind - If I didn't have the basic X drivers working, I wouldn't have
MythTV running through my 350 right now - everything works - it's just that
the frame rate sucks when playing anything other than live TV or recorded,
untranscoded TV....

 

regards,

 

paul

Did you set the BusID in your xorg.conf?

Reference Jarod's guide to running Myth on Fedora Core and read the 
section on "Running X on the PVR-250's TV-Out"

50out=open#video> &expandables=closed&ivtv=open&pvr350out=open#video

Note in his xorg.conf: http://wilsonet.com/mythtv/xorg.conf-PVR350.txt, 
the Device section has a PCI ID set.  Perhaps you need to check this...
