Hello, im a little new to all this stuff and im just trying to get my front 
end to connect to the backend. i have installed my ivtv drivers and i have 
tested. The issue seams to be that myth will not reognize my PVR-500 in the 
device setup. It only shows the 250 and the 350 not the 150 or the 500( 
which is just 2 150s if im not mistaken.) any how here is the error thats 
got me. sorry if i dont give the correct info.

Front End out put
