Hello,<br>
<br>
i have a new installation with Ubuntu 7.04 (feisty), i am from Belgium
(Bruges), we use PAL.<br>
I also have a Pinnacle PCTV 150e/55e PAL/SEC device.<br>
the ubuntu operating system recognized the device without help from me
with any kind of installation.<br>
<br>
I am trying to get mythtv working, or tvtime (tvtime for testing).<br>
Both are not working, both can do a channel scan which says that it
finds channels but no one works (in tvtime i have a green screen with
scambled tv screen on top).<br>
MythTV finds the card, Pinnacle PCTV USB 2 [em28xx].<br>
But when i start the program i get an error in the logging:<br>
<br>
root@mtv-desktop:/var/log/mythtv# cat ./mythbackend.log<br>

<br>
so it seems that i have a problem with the device, the device works
perfectly on windows but that's not what i want to do with it.<br>
Could it be a problem with the driver ?<br>
I am new with video on linux, so could you please help me check with
this ?<br>
<br>
<br>
<u><b>When i attach the device i get:</b></u><br>
