I pulled the HDPVR off the backend, went to a windows computer and
installed the latest drivers, which supposedly installed the latest
firmware (not sure), then put it back onto the backend.

I still get this during a cat /dev/video4 > test.ts:

[root at cyclops mythtv]# cat /dev/video4 > test.ts
cat: write error: Bad address


When I run mythbackend, I get this:

Channel(/dev/video4) Error: SetInputAndFormat(1, NTSC)
			while setting input (v4l v2)
			eno: Connection timed out (110)

The only connections setup in mythtv-setup is component inputs, back side.
 I even tried running an Svideo and composite cable just to be sure.

I blew away all the tuners, and input connections and truncated the tables
in mythconverg like my previous link.

The output SEEMS to indicate it's trying to tune the HDPVR as a normal
tuner, which doesn't make sense.

The bad address write error is supposedly not having the cord connected.
But it IS connected to the VIP211 Dish box.  I might try rebooting the box
for completeness sake, but the only thing I haven't done is setup UDEV
rules for the box, which I'm unsure the value of that and not sure how to
do it anyway.  I don't have any udev rules on the backend.

help?
