[mythtv-users] MythTV - 0 : 1- Zoneminder

[Tom corcoran]

Hi
Several weeks ago I added a CCTV card to my work MythTV system in the
hope of running Zoneminder on the same ox as my Backend server which is
idle for most of the time.  The card I added has 4 SAA7134 chips on
board and is detected in by Mythbuntu successfully, Zoneminder setup was
stet raight forward and I can view my couple of CCTV cameras perfiectly.
The same cannot be said unfortunately for Mythtv, since adding the card
I can no longer tune in my Hauppauge DVB S2 card to any satellite
channel, keep receiving a channel change failure error on screen, see
backend log below.

<mythbackend.log:

I have tested the scan utility from the command line and can detect all
the channels as originally scanned, I have removed the cards from
Mythtvsetup and re-added it without success. If I remove the SAA7134
card I instantly get all my Sat channels back in Mythtv :-(
I also have Hauppauge Nova DVB-T card with local Irish channels which is
unaffected by the Zoneminder hardware?

Anybody got any ideas as I really want these two systems to play nice ?


Many thanks for reading.
