Got my new Nova T last week, dropped it into my bittorrent server along<br>with a new hard drive and set to work installing ubuntu, got it<br>installed with the following specs<br><br>Ubuntu 7.04 \n \l<br>Kernel 2.6.20-16-generic
<br><br>Followed this guide for the Ubuntu/myth install<br><a href="http://parker1.co.uk/mythtv_ubuntu.php">http://parker1.co.uk/mythtv_ubuntu.php</a> and this one for the nova t<br>install <a href="http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Hauppauge_WinTV_Nova-T_500_PCI">
http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Hauppauge_WinTV_Nova-T_500_PCI</a><br><br>I've checked the onboard amplifier is being fired up on startup and I've<br>used scan to get myself a channels.conf, I then got tzap and dvbstream
<br>to get BBC ONE playing in mplayer flawlessly. tzap reported a constant<br>FE_HAS_LOCK so as far as I can tell linux itself and the drivers are<br>working.<br><br>Now the original myth version I had downloaded via apt-get for whatever
<br>reason wouldn't find anything on a full scan, think it might have been<br>due to not setting the scan timeout high enough. But it would import<br>from channels.conf and would view live tv and record livetv no problem
<br>BUT I couldn't get it to record any of the DVB Radio channels, it was<br>complaining about having audio channels when it wanted video channels.<br><br>After asking about on irc I realised I was using a fairly old version of
<br>myth so did some hacking around and got a new version from the package<br>manager, I should point out at this point I'm no expert at ubuntu or<br>linux in general so I just followed some guides till it worked. Problem
<br>was that this new version would do a full scan and find channels (with a<br>suitably extended scan timeout) but wouldn't display anything in live tv<br>or record anything, but importing from channels.conf wouldn't work
<br>either, the error in live tv was "L__" Partial lock, the OSD reported a<br>42% signal during this. Meanwhile tzap/dvbstream still work fine.<br><br>So I hit another guide and pulled down a version from svn so at the
<br>moment I'm running 0.21.20070910-2 but I'm experiencing pretty much<br>exactly the same problem, I can scan for channels, find em but I can't<br>view anything. So ticking everything off, I know the drivers are working
<br>because I can view tv fine in mplayer, I know myth should work with it<br>because the old version worked if imperfectly but I can't get anything<br>to work with the newer version, I've searched through countless mailing
<br>lists and googled everywhere but havn't as yet found anything to fix my<br>problem. So does anyone have any ideas? ;)<br><br>Rob<br><br><br>_______________________________________________<br>mythtv-users mailing list
