KERNEL=="video*", ATTR{name}=="ivtv0 encoder MPG",
ATTRS{device}=="0x244e" , SYMLINK+="pvr150"
KERNEL=="video*", ATTR{name}=="Hauppauge HD PVR",
ATTRS{vendor}=="0x8086", SYMLINK+="hdpvr"
KERNEL=="dvb*.frontend*", ATTRS{vendor}=="0x13d0", SYMLINK+="frontend0"
These are my rules they are placed in a folder under
etc/udev/60-simlinks.rules
I then stop the backend,run mythtv-setup..Under video cards instead of
/dev/video0 put, /dev/hdpvr..reboot or restart UDEV and it should make
your simlink to your hdpvr...
Ubuntu has a script that is available that will figure all this out for
you,but I don't know if it will work under arch...
