[mythtv-users] Channel switching with pvr-350/dc50x

[Don Brett]

I have a Hauppauge pvr-350, works fine, but cable company dropped analog 
and provided free d/a adapters.  I got one, hooked up, set up with 
blaster and script...works great.  Documented it here:

Only problem; the MythTV  scheduler works great, but live TV doesn't 
change channels properly.  Go to "Live TV" and it tunes correctly.  Then 
use the up arrow to go to next channel up; it works once (or twice).

Next change, the blaster appears to work (I see it blinking), video sits 
for a few seconds, then the screen goes blank and osd's fade out.  It 
will sit there as if it's working; hit the escape, nothing happens, wait 
15-30 seconds, and then it exits to main menu with "Video frame 
buffering failed too many times" error (sometimes, not always).

Start over by picking "Live TV", it initially tunes the previously 
attempted channel, then switches to starting channel (3).  It fails 
again, as before, on channel change.  Any suggestions on what to look for?


Note - this setup has hauppauge HD-PVR, Silcon-dust HDHR, and Hauppauge 
pvr-350.  All tuning works great except the pvr-350.
