I'm only using the digital feature at the moment, but there was a time when I had configured the analog side too.

12.04/0.26-fixes, but I'm not there yet.

I actually posted to mythtv-users first but didn't get any responses that solved my problem. That led me to myth development. I am running Ubuntu 12.04.2 64bit and 0.26 of mythtv. Like I said I believe
the OS see the cards. I pasted below some entries from dmesg that seems to indicate all is well. I also read somewhere to run the command 'cat /dev/video0 > test.mpg' and if the file that comes back is a valid video file all is well in the OS. I tried this and the test.mpg was valid.</span><br></div><div class="y_msg_container" style="font-family: 'times new roman', 'new york', times, serif; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><br></span></div><div class="y_msg_container"><span><div class="y_msg_container">[ 2.221174] cx18: Start initialization, version 1.5.1</div><div class="y_msg_container">[ 2.221193] cx18-0: Initializing card 0</div><div class="y_msg_container">[ 2.221195] cx18-0: Autodetected Hauppauge card</div><div class="y_msg_container">[ 2.221229] cx18 0000:05:01.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 18 (level, low) -> IRQ 18</div><div
