Hi,<br><br> Thanks for getting back. Ok, so here's the answers to your queries:<br><br><span style="font-family: times new roman; font-style: italic;">> Do you use ivtv? If so, is it loading properly? (Intense Red)</span><br><br>I'm using ivtv version 0.4.5-1. Yes, it's loading properly. I'm able to capture video and audio using " cat /dev/video0 > test.mpg ". As of now, I'm capturing the input from my coax cable (Tuner0). Just for reference, I'm running kernel 2.6.15-1-amd64-k8 (Debian Etch).<br><br><span style="font-family: times new roman; font-style: italic;">> Is the mythtv-setup program connecting to the database? ( Intense Red)</span><br><br>I think it is. (I have installed and configured MySQL. It's working properly, since I'm able to access it through my browser using "localhost". I've also setup the root password and supplied it to mythtv during configuration.) Here is the output when I start it up in a console:<br><br><font
