[mythtv-users] firmware for the HVR-1800 (vrs. the 2250)

[Leif Pihl]

Success... 
With this part... 
Or so I think... 


It seems that I have managed to extract both sets of firmware and install them both in the relevant firmware directory. 
I've also gone through MythTV's backend setup to configure both cards, the 1800 with Antenna and the 2250 with CATV. 

Right now, it looks like I'm back to an old issue (can't record more than one channel at a time) and a new one (audio not working), but these are topics for a brand-new posting. 

Thanks to all those with suggestions regarding the firmware issue, next week I'll work at the multiple channel issue.
