[mythtv-users] no more livetv

since last reboot I get only a black screen when trying to watch livetv
then after few second it go back to the frontend menu.

I have a pvr500 which work fine, recording are ok
 and a new pvr1600 on which I get the black screen. Myth is always
choosing that card on livetv watching. The digital part is not used yet.
It's my next job...

If I do dd if=/dev/video0 of=/tmp/test.mpeg I can see this recording
with mplayer. 

my card are initialized like this:

dmesg |grep video
pci 0000:05:00.0: Boot video device
Linux video capture interface: v2.00
cx18-0: Registered device video0 for encoder MPEG (2 MB)
cx18-0: Registered device video32 for encoder YUV (2 MB)
cx18-0: Registered device video24 for encoder PCM audio (1 MB)
ivtv0: Registered device video1 for encoder MPG (4096 kB)
ivtv0: Registered device video2 for encoder YUV (2048 kB)
ivtv0: Registered device video3 for encoder PCM (320 kB)
ivtv1: Registered device video4 for encoder MPG (4096 kB)
ivtv1: Registered device video33 for encoder YUV (2048 kB)
ivtv1: Registered device video25 for encoder PCM (320 kB)

strangely there is nothing for the second tuner of the pvr1600 which I
don't use in myth for now but should be initialized.

as I remember my card were initialized like this before:

cx18-0: Registered device video0 for encoder MPEG (2 MB)
ivtv0: Registered device video1 for encoder MPG (4096 kB)
ivtv1: Registered device video2 for encoder MPG (4096 kB)
cx18-0: Registered device video3 for encoder QAM ?
cx18-0: Registered device video4 for encoder ATSC ?

Any idea were to look to solve this
