<P>Im pretty sure my ivtv is working just fine, im not at my box to paste the output right now, but i dont see any errors in the start of ivtv and it finds the correct tuners and all that stuff. I has also been able to capture, and watch tv from my tuners using a commands i found for the consol. But when i go into the setup menus within mythtv itself there is no way to chose the acual card i have installed, all i get is about 3 or 4 options, all of which are related to cards i dont have, except for one which is the same maufacture for the card i have installed. Its the pvr 250 / 350. Could the fact that myth thinks i have a 250/350 when i really have the pvr-500 be causing the trouble?</P></DIV>
