Hello, all!<br>
<br>
I'm running Ubuntu 12.04, and have been able to successfully install
and test (using tvtime and v4l /dev/video0) my HVR-950Q (B5F0
firmware version). <br>
<br>
Then I wanted to get it to run in MythTV...and failed miserably when
the time came to scan channels (all channels show as "no lock").<br>
<br>
So...to spare you some info (please ask for specifics if you have
time to help) - the setup seems to be OK (ish) as per many different
posts I've found, with one detail I've noticed: the card seems to be
"stuck" on input from DVBInput (as opposed to Television, seeing as
the device has 3 inputs - the TV tuner, RCA video in, and S-Video
in...not sure which one DVBInput would map to).<br>
<br>
The reason this rang a bell is that I've noticed (in tvtime, for
instance) that I can switch the input source. So my question is:
how do I tell MythTV which input source from the capture device
(that has multiple input sources) should be associated to a
particular "Input Connection"?<br>
<br>
For example - given that this device also allows me to use S-Video
and RCA, I might use it to digitize some old VHS tapes I have (no,
not ALL of it is vintage pr0n!). So the question is - does MythTV
support selecting the input source (from multiple within a single
capture card)?<br>
<br>
The main problem that I'm having because of this is that I'm unable
to scan for channels (us-cable frequencies, which *should* match the
ones being used locally). I just realized that this might be
because of DVBInput vs. Television being used as the input. Then
again, this is me guessing.<br>
<br>
Needless to say, the dongle works perfectly in windows, and it works
very well in Linux using tvtime and vlc (albeit as v4l devices).
The problem is using it as it was intended - a DVB device...<br>
<br>
Help will be greatly appreciated!<br>
<br>
Cheers!<br>
