<div><div><div></div><div><br></div></div><div>Are you getting your guide data from SchedulesDirect? You mentioned that you scanned your channels but if you're getting guide data from SD then you should be fetching analog channels, not scanning them. Getting a black screen is likely a tuning error, but you'd get more information from the log that mythbackend generates.</div>
<div><br></div><div>As far as your TVTime error, I'm guessing it actually is a permissions error. You probably had mythbackend running (as a service) when you tried to use TVTime to capture video. Only 1 application at a time can access an ivtv video device.</div>
<div><br></div><font color="#888888"><div>-Brad</div><div><br></div></font></div><br></blockquote></div><div><br>Ok, upon further review it turns out that I had selected the wrong type of capture card - I had selected analog card and not PVR-x50. I changed it to that and made sure Tuner 1 was the default tuner, and am almost working. I say almost because even though I can now tune TV and get audio, my video is one big green square. I'm outputting at the default 720x480 with nothing whacky configured, so I'm not sure where the issue lies.I am outputting to my TV via a VGA cable, but the TV has no problem playing SD tv through either Tivo, STB or straight in cable. Not sure what's causing this latest issue. Any ideas?<br>
</div></div></blockquote><div><br>More info: I can view recordings (including LiveTV) in Mythweb's ASX stream on my Windows box and by viewing the MPG files in Mplayer on the Myth box, so it would appear that it's something to do with my playback settings. I tried changing them to slim, standard, etc with no change in the output. Here's the relevant lines from mythfrontend.log:<br>
