[mythtv-users] firewire Channel Change Permission problems

[Mark Pennock]

I finally got this working. The problem was no R/W access to firewire
device. I have no idea what changed here as it was working for a while. My
hdpvr stopped working so I bought another one and have been having problems
since. First this problem but it still won't record. One problem at a
time......

Thanks everyone who helped out here, you guys are awesome!
