My apologies to those who subscribe to ivtv-users and have seen this<br>
already, but I'm having difficulties getting an HVR-1600 that I removed from<br>
an existing (and fully functional) MythTV 10.04 system to work in a new box<br>
that I built. The tuner appears to get signal (when I use ivtv-ctl to tune<br>
it and MythTV finds channels during a scan), but dumping from /dev/video0<br>
(device for tuner 1) to a file produces a 0 byte file with no explanation in<br>
any logs I can find. When I record, I get repeating lines my my log that<br>
say:<br>
DevRdB(/dev/video0) Error: Poll giving up<br>
MPEGRec(/dev/video0) Error: Device error detected<br>
DevRdB(/dev/video0): Stop(): Not running.<br>

Back when I was using the Analog Side of my HVR-1600 Cards at first I was "Fooled" into accepting "Analog V4L" as the Card Type since MythTV would Probe the HVR-1600 Cards, although they only work with "IVTV MPEG-2" Card Type selected... Double Check you have the correct card type selected???<br>
</blockquote><div><br>Yep. I'm pretty sure MythTV isn't even the root of the problem, since cat /dev/video0 doesn't produce a data file. I just thought I'd ask here in case someone else had encountered a similar problem.<br>
